PROGRESSIVES
LAWRENCE FINDS
OF
WEST LUKEWARM
By Darid Lwrcnce
Chicago, July ; i4.--Outslde of the
' ranks of th professional politician
the Republican and Democratic con
ventions have awakened no popular
- chorda in the west, mnd were It not
for the suspicion that in troublous
times like the present a third party
.would add to governmental con
fusion rather than to stability, thl
would be an ideal third party year,
. Jk.m It is. ther. are progreaaivea sraiore,
who are eager to take refueomewhere,"
but the tendency of the minority group
meeting in Chicago to go to the. extreme
of radicalism, will keep large numbers, of
the voters in the two old line parties
mm m choice between lesser evils.
EITHER MIGHT WW TOTB
But both -Senator Harding and Gov
ernor Cox' have splendid opportunities
of winning much of this disaffected vote.
' By showing themselves ; aWe to rise
above the organisation i environment
whence they . came, they would regain
much of what would otherwise be a
"dead loss." For this time the disgruntled;
voter isn't going to express himself
necessarily in a third party, but by some
thing Infinitely 'more subversive of cam
palgn calculations, namely, staying away
'from the polls. c
Inside the Republican party the sltu
ation Is different only . in degree from
' that which exists In the Democratic
.; party. i I . "
ALL HAVE SOME SASH
- For the fact is,- a decided sentiment
prevailed in the west for Hiram John
son, Herbert Hoover, Leonard Wood and
"William GIbbs McAdoo. Neither Cox nor
'Harding could awake a ripple of Interest
"where any of the first four would pro
duce aa emotional -upheaval. Leonard
Wood appealed to the youth of the na
tion and ttf business folk as a decisive
-character. - " M.
Hiram Johnson came forth "as the
crusader of the west, uninfluenced and
: uncontrolled by party bosses, or organ
izations, but full of a doctrine of Amer-
Jca first that sounded plausible.
Herbert Hoover stood out as the prod
. uct of the war, a master mind In execu
tive and administrative tasks, an ama
teur in politics and therefore -not alto
gether eliminated from future considera
tion simply becar:e he - igjed his cards
'this year.
REPRESENT FACTIOUS .
In William Gibba McAdoo they saw
Wllsonism 1- international - affairs - and
friendship for labor. To the millions
who were carried - away by President
Wilson's appeal for the League of Na
: tions on his trip west last year, McAdoo
seemed' to be more nearly the heir of
V Wilson policies than either Wood or
' Johnson were of the Roosevelt policies.
. Mt-Adoo in the Democratic,, and Wood.
Johnson and Hoover in the Republican
' party do represent different waves of
- public opinion, which htv not been sub
emerged by the party nominations. The
, average American is no sooner done
i. with one campaign than be looks for
''the next contest. ;
POSSIBILITIES OF' 192 J: "
And. Judging by the expressions which
toe writer heard on' his Western trip.
It Is safe to assume that; unless Cox
and Harding both discover the roots of
-. the power which Wood, Johnson, Hoover
V and AJcAdoo held In the Western coun
try, those four Individuals will be heard
from in the- contest four years from
now. .-; .'--.,' -V :j
Surely, If Governor Cox :jfa defeated,
the opinion forcing McAdoo! to lead the
i party in ' 192 i will be , greater than it
was this time,-.'' With the ! absence of
' Woodrow Wilson from office for four
years, there will' be no plausibility be
hind the cry of "crown prince" or "son-in-law,"
an argument thtft had weight
not. merely .with Republicans, but with
Democrats.' too. 'Furthermore, If Cox
'. loses, the .Wilson branch off. the Demo
cratic party will engage in a mighty
struggle next : time to overthrow the
Tammany Tiger, i
COX FOB 8ECOITD TESK
On, the other band,' should Governor
Cox be elected and do to the Tammany
bosses what Woodrow Wilson C did to
the New Jersey bosses when once he got
the nomination from . them and was
elected to office, the entire Democratic
party would be obliged to renominate
Cox for a second term. . ,
In the Republican party, the talk of
192 also has a definite bearing on what
kind pf support will be given the Re
publican ticket this year. Friends of
Herbert Hoover, who always have want
ed to see him classed as a Republican,
are glad he has come out In favor of
Harding. This, they think, will assist
Hoover four years from now, especially
if Harding isn't elected next fall. In
cidentally, there is a real boom on in
California to make Hoover governor of
the state two years hence, If Governor
Stephens decides to run for the senate.
If he doesn't, " then ' Hoover is being
talked of for the senate against John
son. ' - ' - j '-';.. : . - ,
HOOVES "IIC LIXELIGHT
The idea seems to be to keep Hoover
in the political limelight in the next four
years, whether be occupies a place in
a Harding cabinet or is a candidate for
senator or governor of his state, for In
four years he will nave wiped the slate
clean of the suggestion that rbe lived
abroad too many years to understand
American affaire and will have aligned
himself long enouQi with Republicans
to be considered eligible for high honors.
When swept into power on a wave
of resentment, however, one cannot
boast of very strong support, and unless
Hard(pg, if elected, proves himself a
progressive, the western part of the
United States will reveal a resurgent
progressivism that will make logical In
1924 a repetition of the political events
of 1912. Harding would, of course, be
the candidate' of the organization in the
East for reelection, Just as was Taf t.
and Johnson might easily become the
Roosevelt of the occasion. The sooner
Harding and the West get close together
and the sooner the Republican managers
realise that their front porch campaign
will not get the publicity of attention
that a trip of speeches would get, the

"A government by law rather than by

"The calling of a special session is op

WILSON TO TAKE
VIGOROUS PART IN
COMING CAMPAIGN
By Frank A. Stetson
Washington, July if. (I. N. S.)
That . President Wilson will partici
pate vigorously in the coming presi
dential campaign, and that his ef
forts wiU be given unremittingly to
the support of the-Democratic nom
inees. Governor Cox of Ohio and As
sistant Secretary of the Navy Frank
lin t. Roosevelt, was the , predic
tion of administration leaders here
today following the announcement
that the president would receive the
Democratic nominees at the White
House Sunday morning.
A , formal statement to this effect. It
was freely .'predicted, today will result
from. the forthcoming conference and the
widespread stories of the president and
Governor Cox being fax apart orf the
treaty Question will be utterly refuted
in an official announcement after the
leading figures have taken council with
each other. ;.,.. . i ;;i.; ,' :;-M
The extent of the president's aid In the
campaign will. of course be limited by
his physical condition. He is constantly
gaining in -strength, according to Dr.
Grayson and , there seems no doubt in
the minds of those close to him that
he will be able to play an important
part between now and November.. ' !

While women carefully j waah'a bathtub,
men leave a black ring around it, and
therefore the Democrats will win In No
vember, according to Burris A. Jenkins,
sponsor of the McAdoo boom at Frisco,
who spoke here Monday nlnght.
Women invariably i are idealists,"
Jenk said, "and will refuse to vote
for hardened and sophisticated Repub
licana."
S. F. Man Falls to :
: Death From Window
(By tTatted Www.) '..:
San Francisco. July 1. Fred Staude,
President of the Simplex Ice Machine
company, plunged to death in crowded
Market street late today -when he either
fell or leaped ' from his office on the
third floor of the Western States Insur
ance building. He was M years old, . -
made, and run continuously through the
year except for 90 days In the summer,
Tbis wpuld even bo more satisfactory
than the provision of my bill for open
ing March 4. ?'
"Election of congressmen every four
years the same as the president would
avoid divided power between the admin
istration and legislative . bodies. The
president should have a friendly con
gress."', - ' . h---- ;; '
McArthur endorsed the budget bill,
which he says has been amended to meet
the objections of President Wilson. He
declared that .. the bill Was " good and
would save the country money.. He ex
pressed disapproval -of plana to increase
the size of congress, sayiag that 435, as
at present, is too many congressmen and
recommended that the apportionment of
one representative to every 226.000 peo
ple be raised to a larger' number so the
number of congressmen: would . not be
Increased.
