MAINE

The election for Governor, members Of Con
gross and the Legislature took place in Maine on
Monday week. The Democrats have lost ground
in this State, owing to the fact that there was
really no clement of national politics involved in
the Issue, all being absorbed, divided, and con
fused by The Maine liquor law. The whole par
ty, however, are unitedly and zcaIously in favor
of Pierce and King, who are certain 10 carry the
State by a large majority.
There is no election for Governor by the Peo,
pie. DR.. John Hubbard was the regular Demo
cratic candidate, but Chandler. also a Democrat.
was run in opPositiont TO theliq0or law. Crosby
vas the Wing nominee, and Holmes the abo!i.
ton candidate. The Democrats lost . member
OF Congress INA district where they had two can
didates. The congressional delegation is lhree
to three. The complexion Of the Legislature is
thoroughly Democratic. IS
