Press dispatches from Washington
say Senator Hale is the head and front
of the fight in behalf of four repre-
sentatives for Maine during the next
decade. He is the lieutenant general
of the movement and Kansans, Me-
braskans. Nirginians and Maine men
as well, practically report to him and
receive orders. That is because of his
intense interest in the matter and the
general recognition of his superior
capacity for engineering such bat
tie. Then he is member of the
Senate census committee and will
have a very active part in handling
the apportionment bill when it
reaches the upper end of the capitol.
His two chief lieutenants are Repre-
sentatives Burleigh and Littlefield
who work shoulder to shoulder in
martiaIing the different state delega-
tons in meetings and joint meetings
TO thwart the plans that Chairman
Hopkins and some of the republican
leaders may have in mind. The
Maine fight is now sufficiently ad-
vanced to warrant statement that
the first blood is for Maine. The bill
will undoubtedly be reported out of
the House census committee just as
the Maine men want it reported.
Then they must make the fight on the
floor with the odds in their favor.
