San Francisco, Aug. 18. Insurgent
Republicans swept California like a
tidal wave and left no portion of
the old Republican political ma
chine above water. Not only was Hi
ram Johnson, Lincoln - Roosevelt
league candidate, nominated fcr gov

county except San Francisco, but he
carried with him the entire state
ticket and two out of eight congres
sional districts.
W'lllam Kent, the millionaire cat

fornia from Chicago, and whose cam
paign was helped out by Gifford Pin
chot; defeated Duncan McKinley In
tho Second congressional district,
while Stephens won In the Seventh
district over the veteran James Mc
Laciilan. Victory Represents Sentiment.
Johnson's plurality is estimated at
not les3 than 30,000. His victory Is
believed to mean the utter demoral
ization of the old "Southern Pacific
machine," which has dominated polit
ical affairs In California for years.
Johnson's surprising vote, his ad
herents "'say, represents 'the true In
surgent sentiment In California,
'which heretofore has been curbed un
der the old plan of state conven
tions. The machine's defeat Is at
tributed by many to the multiplicity
of its candidates. Its, forces divided
their strength between Anderson and
