THE- OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE S3, IS 23. .' J'J in mm unorTUAT lUIIILHIIUI L Mini DR. LOVEIOY WILL Mrs. Meredith, Democratic Na tional Committeewoman, Says She Has Found Much Interest. Women all over the United States are Interested in the congressional Campaign of XH-i Esther Pohl Love Joy, said Mrs. Ellis Meredith of the Woman's bureaQ of the Democratic national committee, Washington, D. C. who stopped In Fort land Friday on her way to San Francisco to at tend the Democratic convention, j "Women throughout the country will watch and pray that Dr. Lovejoy may bo elecUd." said Mrs. Meredith. , "They rill feel that In her they, have a. real representative, who stands for all the best thing's In which women are Interest ed, that she would belong- not Just ! to Oregon', but to women of the entire coun try. In a, number of states where I have , been, women have spoken of her with the Utmost enthusiasm." ; L Mrs. Meredith scoffed at the idea of the Democrats putting in a wet plank. . "Why, 80 of the 13 states that voted try were Democratic states," she de clared, "and furthermore, 95 per cent! of the women" are opposed to the saloon. . f The entire contention, Mrs. , Meredith predicts, will center around the League of Nation., with much discussion as to the kind and extent of reservations. 1 -.- Mrs. ' Meredith has been with the sroman'a bureau since 1916, previous to that time being engaged in newspaper Work in Denver. She was the first Dem ocratic woman organizer in Denver and was vice chairman of the Colorado state central committee before becoming asso ciated with the national committee. Sho has been speaking and organising Democratic women in the northern part of the country on her way to the con vention, where she will assist in prelim inary arrangements for the big conven tion.

Prom the Nw York ffurtd A -more respectable figurehead than Warren G. Harding has never '.' ' been nominated for president of the .United States by either party. . ; Nor has either party,, since the Democratic national convention of 18a6 named James Buchanan, elect ed a candidate so little qualified to ' grapple - with the. nation's problems. Senator Harding is the perfect flower of old guard politics. He is an Ohio country politician with the ' mind os an Ohio country politician, . and he sees the world through the mind of an Ohio country politician. Being weak and colorless and medi ocre, he appealed powerfully to the -managing politicians who control the . ' Republican organisation, roost , of whom are senators themselves. They know Harding, and they know that , he will b a faithful agen( of the organization. .They;, hare worked v , with him, and they 'can prove that . he never had an original idea or en tertained a thought that-was outside , the routine of a well-trained and,' - well-disciplined party servant. -----t-j..' n The Republican : platform adopted at Chicago is perhaps the best index to the Harding mind. Whoever - is curious to know the mental processes of the Republican candidate has only to s read , that platform. Those are . tho very terms and phrases in which Senator Harding thinks and in which ' ne expresses himself. ' ' . - . The senator's friends are stood of comparing him with McKinley, but the resemblance is mainly snperfi-' ciL Both came out of Ohio, -but if Herding is a McKinley he Is a Mc Kinley without McKinley'a personal charm, a -McKinley without McKln- ' ley's extraordinary skill In managing men, a McKinley without McKtnley's wide experience in public affairs. . The Republican candidate has-been - : a member of the United States senate for more than five years, , but, his -name is not Identified with any im portant act of legislation or with any public service , of consequence. . He has voted as Penrose and Lodge would have him vote, and he has never . displayed anything that could be re garded by the most liberal interpre-. Latton as Independence or courage." 7 His conscience and his convictions . are simply the routine conscience and convictions, of . a professional - Ohio ' politician. , - . . .Of all the candidates whose names ; were presented to the Chicago con vention or who were within the range of the convention's choice. Harding, with the exception of Johnson and Poindexter, fell the furthest short of measuring up to the requirements of a president in this critical time., LowtlerT and Wood were eliminated' by their campaign fund scandals, but with Hoover and Hughes and Taft and Kj.ox and even Coolidge ' And Sproul and Butler to select from, what more pitiful choice could have i. been made, in -view of the colossal questions with which the next presi dent of the United States must deal? Senator Harding was nominated because the Old Guard Republicans - want a president to whom they can - give orders a. president who will take orders. Accordingly, they pre sent; their- poppet candidate 'in the , person of Warren G.. Harding of Ohio. . s r , . - ' . . . . . -.. . HAKDnrG A.TTO COOLIDGE aTTorn the Prvfktouf Joorari ' : The eventful week at i Chicago reached its climax Saturday evening 7 in the nomination - of Warren O. . Harding of Ohio as the Republican , candidate for president. His selec,-' tion will meet with general approval ; he is a clean and upstanding Ameri-. . can. safe , and loyal, and ' his great ' experience in legislative matters has; . given him a splendid knowledge of our public affairs. Ho Is the direct antithesis of Woodrow -; Wilson In almost every way and' stands .for representative ; as opposed to autocratic government. To say that his nomination comes as a surprise to a large proportion of, the people of the United States is not overstating the fact, yet it must be remembered that Senator Harding . has been coupled In popular report with the great honor for many months and has been looked upon from the first as well within the cir cle of possibilities. His failure to appear among the - leaders on the earlier ballots at Chi--. cage- was in accord with the obvious ' truth, of course, that his numerical following during the ante-convention campaign was mucti inferior to that of General Wood, Governor Dowden and Senator Johnson. The primary votes in various states placed these " others very generally ahead of him ; . In Ohio, his own state, he won a ma- pority of the delegates, but Wood was close behind him on the prefer ential ballot even there. In the minds of many men, however, he has pos sessed ' i the intangible quality, of -"availability. He was once elected 'lieutenant, governor of Ohio,- and though . he was later defeated for ; . governor. In his campaign for the . senatorahip he carried Ohio by a ,-: hundred thousand votes. - : " - It cannot be forgotten that Ohio voted for Wilson four years ago, and naturally the Republican leaders are anxious to reverse that result this time. Senator Harding's nomination - parries as back to the days when the party chose Rutherford B. Hayes. James A Garfield, William McKin ley and William H. Taft, all Ohio men, to bear its presidential stand ard. : There is something in his ap- pearance, by the way, that is remin iscent of McKinley. He is universally admired, a man whose career in state .and national service has been not able ; and incidentally he is a tine campaigner. , .-t ri : The nomination of Calvtn Coolidge for -vice president sincerely gratifies . ew. England. His courageous course at the time of the police troubles in - Boston is remembered with deep ap- proval ; indeed it made him almost instantly a national figure last year. l and he has ever since then had a genuine and enthusiastic support for the presidency. . His acceptance of .; the vice presidential nomination is a reminder that Presidential candidates before this have agreed to take sec : ond place . on : the ticket when the larger prise went elsewhere, ' Both presidential and vice presi-'- dential candidates this - year come from the "plain people." They were:' . both raised on American farms and are types of the sturdy character f that has ' long been associated with 1 our wholesome rural life. - . v - Five !
