There are several reasons why Gov. Robbie
should recei sc rousing majority. One is
because he deserves it. He has been one of
the best governors Maine ever had. Anoth-
sr is because of its influence on the October
elections in Ohio and West Virginia. The
larger Robie's majority the surer the Repub-
leans will be of carrying those States.in Oc-

The Democrats seem to have come to the
conclusion that it will be impossible to de-
feat Mr.. Reed at the polls, and SO they are
laying plans to get rid of him another way.
The Kittery correspondent of the Boston
Post says that if he is elected the House, If
it happens to be Democratic, will not allow
him to take his seat. The way to prevent
that is to make his majority SO large nobody
will dare contest the peoples choice. Fur

Cleaves and SAWYER,

A great deal of effort will be made by the
Democrats to-day to get Republicans to vote
for Cleaves for Congress and for Sawyer for
Sheriff because of their personal popularity.
Let Republicans remember thas it is for their
true and tried friends they should vote. Mr..
Reed has been a sturdy champion of this
district and of the Republican party of the
country in Congress. He caused the Cape
Lights to be re-established. He has gained the
name of great leader. His fame is nation
al. What has Judge Cleaves to present for
your suffrages that can counterbalance this?
By that one vote, by voting for Reed, you
help give majority that may have the effect
of making the next House Republican in
stead of Democratic.
Why should you vote for Sheriff Sawyer?
He has been tried as Sheriff and found want
ing. Neal Dow protested against his depu-
ties receiving their salaries when they were
