Mr.. Haynes Vote.
A writer in the Maine Standard say

A writer in the Maine Standard says:
There is some mystery in connection with the
number of votes casts for J. Manchester liza, nes
10 kenBebec county last year. The Journal care
fully avoided publishing The vote aud numerous
efforts haye been made 10 ascertain the exact
but without avail. Ii was geLers.ly understood
nat he run behind bis ticket thousand or more.
There is no ystery ut all about lhe
vote tor Mr.. Haynes last year. The
Journal published it. 1t may be found in
the report of the legislative committee on
senatorial votes, which was published la
our columns, giving the vote cast for every
candidate for senator. Mr.. Haynes re-
ceiyed 1898 votes, Gov Connor 5O96, the
difference between the two votes being
%. Whoever understood that Mr..
HAYNES ran "behind his ticket Thousand
OF more" was wrongly informed. The
writer 10 the STANDARD exhorts republi-
cans to vote against Mr.. Haynes. Such
advice coming from the Standard, which
has advised the democratic 10 strike hands
with the greenbackers to gain majority
ot the senate and house, will not iujure
Mr.. HAYNES any. 1t is a safe rule for re-
publicans to avoid doing what the Stand
ard would have them do. Mr.. Hayne,
was one OF the ablest men in the senate
last winter. kennebec will be fortunate
in being represented in the senate next
winter by j. Manchester Haynes and
