THE MAINE ELECTION.

It is not worth while TO reprint our returns OF
Tie vote in Maine; complete returns from the
spa7sely settled plantations In the northern seq
ton of Aroostook County are seldom received
before the meeting Of the Legislature. The
latest and most accurate figures at hand are
from 476 cities, towns, ard plantations, show
ing for Cony, Union, 67,9lG; Bradbury, Cop
per, 5O,5 scattering, II. Cony over Brad
bury, 1850. Last year, the same towns gave
for Coburn, Eepub., 46,659; Bradbury end
Jameson, Dems., 40,950; Columns majority,
$3.50. The Union gain on the vote is 81, 227,
and on majority, ISL. The entire vote is
1929 this year, against 81, $50 last year. In
1862, there was voting for Governor in only
AIS towns; Of these, ~ are not yet
returned this year; they gave in all, for Coburn
295; Bradbury and Jameson, 271. Lincoln is
the only county giving COpperheai majority.
The seat of joseph Smith, Senator elect from
that county (and the only Copperhcad Senator
chosen) will be contested by Mr.. Stetson, the
Union candidate, on the ground of fraud. As
the vote is returned, it stands: Smith, 2,Gii;
Stetson, 1927; Copper majority, Ia. In
the Assembly, the seats of II. X. Bradbury Of
HALLS and L. o. j. Smith Of Westbrook VII

tween Kennebec and Pcnobscot Counties for
