San Francisco dispatch notes Barry Goldwater's nomination shifts Republican power to the right since Harding. It claims he has wrested the party from liberal hands, unifying delegates and compelling a stark 180 degree shift toward conservative leadership. The piece recalls 1960-64 tensions and Goldwater's call for maturity among conservatives.
