ELECTION AFTERMATH

While Hiram Johnson is the win
ning presidential candidate of the
republican primary, the fact cannot
lie denied that he done not represent
the league of nations sentiment of
the republican party of Oregon.
Had either Wood, Ix«wden or
Hoover Iwt-n the only candidate rep
resenting the pro league sentiment
of Oregon, either would have won
over Johnson. Therefore, for league
consideration we must add the vote*
cast fur Wood and Ixiwden and
Hoover to get the real pro league
sentiment. We may consider a vast
majority of the Johnson vote the ao
league sentiment of Oregon voters
Johnson obtained but little n ore
than one-third of the republican vote
last Friday. If to the two-third*
we add the total democratic vole
then we can ascertain the approxi
mate pro league sentiment of Ore
gon voters.
Anuther feature of the Johnson
vote which cannot lie a very satis
factory compliment to the Californ

where lumbering and logging and

support.
