This bodes ill for Republican prospects four years from now; in fact two years from now as well. There will not 'be the magic pulling-power of the Eisenhower Eisen-hower name in any future election. Even the voting in our State of Utah, which at first glance appeared appear-ed to have given the Republicans a smashing victory, does not bear out this first impression when examined ex-amined more closely. Eisenhower and Nixon led the ticket. A governor gov-ernor was elected on the Republican Republi-can ticket; and apparently a majority maj-ority of the state legislature, both houses, will be Republicans. Yet George D. Clyde drew, and was elected with, less than 40 of the votes cast, and our junior Senator, Wallace Bennett, though re-elected, made a rather poor showing and probably would not have made the grade without the aid of Ike s coattails. In the Utah balloting, in fact, the most noteworthy personal performances per-formances were two: those of Dwight D. Eisenhower, and J. Bracken Brac-ken Lee. Each proved a dedicated popular following. Lee's showing, in getting more than 28 of the votes when running as an independent, indepen-dent, was exceptional. This was doubly significant because it was a spontaneous vote of approval; a positive expression of confidence, by the common people who, in great numbers refused to be "herded" "herd-ed" by the organized machines of both partis. While others on the Republican ticket more or less coasted to victory, the names Eisen hower and Lee were the ones which really drew enthusiastic followings. The vote for Lee may be considered consid-ered a rock-bottom vote by Utah conservatism. As such, it is a force to be reckoned with by both parties in future campaigns. It has proved itself a vote not tied to party labels; a vote quite capable of jumping party lines when given the opportunity to vote for its principles. princi-ples. It is a sufficiently large vote to swing the balance of power in normal two-way campaigns. There is more than a little reason to think that the voters who went for Lee are only too anxious to go against Watkins at the first opportunity. opport-unity. Matter of fact, the tens of thousands thou-sands of votes cast for Lee gave the lie to Watkins' statement that the antics in the convention and the primary would not bring on a split in the Republican party. They did, and the size of that split has been proved. This fact should give pause to Arthur V. Watkins before he ever again decides to "rule or ruin" with the idea that voters will follow his turncoat whims. Given Continued on next po?e k, jtmxKi,iiil .-!
