AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept. 10.-Rain and
general apathy caused light vote, and
though the Democrats admit defeat they
did not show symptom of
disbursement. The Prohibitionists
and POpulists are not largely in
evidence SO far as returns indicate.
A heavy rain put quietus upon the
telegraph and telephone wires early in
the evening, but returns have been
received by the Associated Press from
over 100 cities and towns, and these
indicate that the state has re-
elected Gov. Cleaves (Rep.) over Charles
F. johnson Dem.) by "a majority which
will exceed $1,000, the largest in the
history OF the party. The Repub-
licans have carried every county
In the state, and at IL o'clock it is
estimated that the legislature will have
working Republican majority of 1926,
which insures the reelection of Senator
William P. Frye. Thomas b. Reed was
reelected to congress by a plural

Hard Struggle. -. -.

ST.. CLOUD. Sept. 1O.-Later accounts
from Mora and Ground House received
this morning confirm the reports of the
danger which threatened the two towns
sent out yesterday, and both places had
narrow escapes from total destruction.
Famed by terrific wind, the forest
fires, which have been burning slowly
since the Hinckley disaster, were again
aroused and increased to such an extent
as to frighten the inhabitants and drive
them into places of safety. as the lurid
flames were advancing and bearing
down with great rapidlty upon their
towns. Remembering the Hinckley
horrors, the Mora people took refuge in
the river near by. awaiting train
which had been telegraphed for TO take
them away. The work train from
Hiuckley was ordered to Mora and
reached there about the time the wind
changed, and left the town beyond a
doubt safe, at least temporarily. The
Ground House people were taken on a
train to Milaca and remained there until
this morning. Although the =
Town Had a Close Call
all day, the change OF wind also favored
it,and no damage is reported. However,
the citizens in these villages are badly
frightened and the high wind now pre-
vailing gives reason for danger should
it be directed upon the towns.
j.. A. Robideau. of Bridgman, was in
ST.. Cloud Sunday evening. He says
that Bridgman would surely have
burned last week if it had not been for
the work done by Foley Bros. Robideau
is loud in his praise of the efforts of Mr.
0. w. Swanson, manager for Foley
Bros. at Bridgeman. Nearly one hun
dred men were at work all the week,
some of them day and night, fighting
back the flame which threatened the
little village on all sides at different
times through the week. A great fire
brake was plowed about the town and
men with barrels and buckets of water
kept guard day and night. AT one time
the fire was within six rods of A. D.
Jessmer's house but it was kept back.
The inhabitants prepared to leave sew
eral times and some of them had their
household goods buried in the ground.
One of the most desperate of the fire
fighters was "Tink" Coon. Robideau
says he Is deserving of medal for his
perSiStency and bravery.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1O.-The pro-

ity follow suit. and the near resemblance
OF the issues to government secur-
