RrruBLicANs have again gone daft
over having carried New England
state in n presidential year. Yet. as
was the case in Vermont, the result
OF yesterdays election in Maine does
not afford n fair criterion on which
20 base conjecture as to Novem Der.
The Chicago Record, neutral paper,
has this review OF the situation in
the Pine Tree state from M. Z. Frank
The democratic party of Maine had
adopted platform which proved to
he in direct opposition to the Chicago
platform on the currency issue and
nominated a candidate for governor
on that platform. After the national
convention they were obliged to
change their position and put in
nomination another candidate. The
republican party. having a thorough
organization. had meanwhile taken
advantage OF the situation and com.
mittcd substantially all their voters
to their policy on the currency
question before the democrats
were reorganized on new lines.
The disai1ection created in the
party by the change and the di.or-
gsniaed condition OF the party en-.
abied the republicans with their
thorough organization and unlimited
means ut their command. while the
democrats were without funds to
