Partisan warfare over the peace treaty in California
The piece denounces Senator Hiram Johnson for his opposition to the Paris peace treaty, calling him a well educated demagogue who panders to Germany and England haters. It contrasts his stance with Dennis Kearney’s, argues Johnson prioritizes party over national honor, and warns against Republican appeal to pro German and Sinn Fein elements. The essay recalls wartime costs to England, France, and Belgium and defends the treaty as just, urging the GOP to abandon such alliances for national safety.
