A GREAT
REPUBLICAN,
VICTORY

PORTLAND (Me.), September 81
Chairman Simpson of tie State Com
mittee tonight sent a message to the
President saying:
Maine has gone Republican as it
once went for Governor F.ent. We have
carried the State by plurality of 25,-
600. We nave elected the entire, delega-
ton in Congress by a large majority,
have chosen every Senator with one
exception and about four-fifths of the
Legislature. The Pine Tree State in
dorses your administration with no un-
certain voice.
A message of like import was sent to
Senator Hanna, saying: Maine has
today shown her appreciation of the
Republican policies which have given
to our country a prosperity unequaled
in the history of the world"
Maine rolled up a big off-year plu-
raiity for the Republicans in the elec-
tion today, approximating $1,000. in
comparison with $4,000 for the average
of other years. Complete returns will
be very late, owing to the remoteness
of many towns. The figures at midnight
from 240 cities and towns give Hill (R.)
4O,962, Gould CD 245S7. The same
towns two years ago gave Hill (R.) A.
431, Lord CD 27,754.
The Legislature, while as usual
strongly Republican, VIII have an un-
common number of Democratic mem
bers, some of the strongest Republican
towns of the State having elected rep
resentatives of that party. The Senate
will have only one Democrat in thirty
one members. In the First Congress
sional district Congressman Allen was
reelected over DR.. S. E. Gordon of
Portland CD and Fred E. Irish $50
cialisD, with a plurality of about $500,
as against 1000 two years ago Mr.. AL
len, who succeeds Thomas B. Reed, for
whom he was secretary, ran behind his
ticket in York and Cumberland coun-
ties. DR.. Gordon's personal popularity
contributed to this result. An incident
was the increase in the Socialist vote
of from 20 two years ago to 800 this year
in Portland alone.
In the Fourth district, owing to it's
great area, the returns will not be COM
pleted until late tomorrow, but the esti-
mate is that Congressman Powers (R.)
has been reelected by plurality of
1000 over Thomas White CD.
In the Third district Congressman E.
C. Burleigh got the Prohibtionist vote
and ran slightly ahead of his ticket in
defeating E. H. Benson CD.
In TIE Second district Congressman
c. "a Battlefield had no difficulty in de-
feating his Democratic opponent, run
ming we'll ahead of his ticket.
The city and county contests nearly
all presented features, but the most in
teresting was that in Cumberland
county, of which the late Rev. Samuel
Pearson was sheriff. The Shrievalty
fight today, was won by Penneh the
Democratic candidate, by 100 in Port
land and nearly 1000 in the county

ARRESTS AT
ST. LOUIS

ST. LOUIS, September S.-A sensa-
ton was caused here today by the issu-
ance of bench warrants for the arrest

His confession, which is most direct,
involves eighteen prominent men who
nave been connected with St. Louis

and the issuing of the warrants fol-
lowed quickly. Murrell says he belong
ed to a combine which sold votes for
cash.

NO SETTLEMENT IN
PEARL HARBORC
Navy Department Not favorably
Inclined Towards Honolulu
Compromise.

From advices received from Admiral
Merry by Assistant United States At
torney Dunno. the prospects for a final
compromise in the Pearl Harbor case
are not very good. Admiral Merry ia
vored a settlement with the Honolulu
Plantation Co, but the sentiment in
Washington appears to be against any
compromise which has conditions at
tached to it. Admiral Bradford is away
from Washington and Admiral Merry
is not hopeful of success.
Mr.. Dunno will leave for San Fran
cisco on the Alameda next Wednesday
to prosecute the appeal in the Circuit
Court of Appeals, unless orders to the
contrary come in the next mail.
The Honolulu Plantation Co, it is
said. agreed to accept $4,000 for its
leasehold interest in the Bishop Estate
lands, but also asked certain conces-
sions relative to wharfage and water
rights.

PROFESSOR HOUGH SAYS
MARS HAS LIVING BEINGS

CHICAGO, September 1O.-After a
lifetime spent in observation of the
heavenly bodies Professor George w.
Hough, head of the Department of AS
tronomy at Northwestern University,
announced his belief today that Mars,
Mercury and Venus, as well as millions
of other planets outside of the solar
system are inhabited.
The professor further announced that
the inhabitants of Mars, Mercury and
Venus in particular are thousands of
years in advance of the human race in
point of civilization.
by Professor Hough only after years of
scientific observation and his accept
ance of the theory marks an epoch in
modern astronomy. For years he has
been a recognized authority on matters
astronomical and is known as one of
the most conservative astronomers.
Accepting the nebular hypothesis of
the origin of planets, Professor Hough
has made a special study of our neigh
Dor, Mars. Through the powerful tele-
scope of the Dearborn Observatory he
noted the similarity of the atmosphere
conditions of Mars and the earth. He
found that the planet Mars in itself did
not differ materially from the earth.
save in the matter of the color of vege-
tation. which in Mars appears to be red
instead of green.
On Mercury and Venus, after careful
observation, he found similar conditions
to prevail So far as his observations

IOWA ASHORE

RIO JANEIRO (BraziD, September
10 (via Galveston). The United States
battleship Iowa has run aground near
Cape Nossa Senhora do Desterro and
the Island of Milo. The Iowa had just
finished target practice and was return
ing to the Friars Island.
Cape Nossa Senhora do Desterro is
ON the Island of Santa Catharina, 460
miles southwest of Rio Janeiro. The
island is about half way between Mon
tevideo, Uruguay, and Rio Janeiro.
The Brazilian Minister of Marine has
ordered a warship to go to the aid of
the Iowa. The Iowa is the flagship of
the South Atlantic squadron. Rear Ad-
miral George w. Sumner is in command
of the South Atlantic station. Captain
Thomas Perry commands the Iowa.
The cruiser Atlanta is the only other
warship in the South Atlantic squadron.

carried him he could find nothing on
any of the three planets inimicaI to life.
Then he put to himself the question:
If the earth is inhabited, why should
not these planets, with similar terres-
trial and atmospheric conditions, also
contain life?
Upon accepting the possibility of
these planets being inhabited, Professor
Hough once more went back TO the
nebular hypothesis. Acting upon the
hypothesis he believed Mars, Mercury
and Venus to be older-millions of years
older perhaps-than the earth.
IF it took the human race as many
years as the earth is old to evolve to
its present conditions" he reasoned.
the inhabitants of Venus or Mercury
or Mars, after a process of evolution
begun millions upon millions of years
before the earth even assumed its pres
ent form, must be ages in advance OF
us in civilization.
In discussing his recently drawn con-
clusions today Professor Hough ex-
pressed the belief that of the two mil
lion stars which are at present known
to astronomy, a majority act as suns
to various solar systems in which there
are hundreds of inhabited planets.
L do not believe the Creator placed
all those stars in the heavens for moth
ing" said the venerable professor. "and
after a lifetime spent in studying the
heavenly bodies 1 can only begin to
realize what a small thing man is
Professor Hough has been connected
with Northwestern University for near
ly half century, during which time
he has discovered nearly seven hundred
stars.

interference with the business enter prises of the country, the better for all concerned. From an officially conduct ed investigation to a constrained ar bitration, and thence to a compulsory regulation, are easy and successive steps in the wrong direction. It is never an occasion of public advantage when the operation of a crude Government machine is substituted for the skillful initiative of experienced industrial leaders in a pending controversy In the long run it may well be doubted whether an overfed industry is any the worse for the sort of economic phlebot- c,ny involved in strikes. Unhappi!y the public, as well as the participants, must suffer the consequence of stoppages.

A recent census bulletin shows that the bicycle is DO longer a fad, as an article of pleasure, but that it is now serving useful purposes. The nlanu- fracture of bicycles as a separate indus try may be said to have begun in iS90, for previous to that year the compar- atively few wheels made in the United States were chiefly the product of ear riage and wagon factories. In the cen sus decade the capital invested in tse exclusive manufacture of bicycles and tricycIes increased from $2,G56,G72 to $29, .S3, ,659, and the value Of product t from $2.56S, 326 to $31,915,9c8. The bi- cycle trade reached it's climax, how eve:, before the close O. the decade. and there was q decline before the census was taken. Since then there has been revival and the popularity of the wheel is steadily increasing

Notwithstanding the general interest in the subject of compulsory arbitra
 tion the movement COMPULSORY for legislation to ARBITRATION. that end made little
 more progress during the session of congress just closed than in former years. Perhaps congress was all the more inclined to proceed slowly on account of the conflicting reports from New Zealand concerning the workings of the arbitration law there reports with which the readers of The Republican have been made familiar. There was, however, during the recent session, stronger sentiment than in previous years in favor of some kind of federal law to adjust the differ ences between labor and capital. The McDermott arbitration bill, authorizing the president to appoint boards of in vestigation, with power to arbitrate, in cases of labor disputes, was introduced in Congress too late to permit of due consideration and discussion, and be- fore another session shall have begun the presumed exigency that inspired it may have passed away. It was sought through this measure to invest the president with authority to appoint boards of investigation wherever differ ences between employers and employed in industries engaged in interstate or icr,1 Sl, foI in strikes or lockouts. These boards were to be endowed with powers of boards Of arbitration if the parties to a dispute should elect to submit the con troversy to such tribunal for adjust ment and final decision.
 In reporting this bill favorably the House Labor committee, of which Rep resentative Garner Of New Jersey is chairman, made the brief comment that Investigation as proposed would result in an authoritative report that would correctly advise the president of the facts in dispute, and bring both parties to the bar of public opinion; and that such authoritative publicity would SC
 
 the anticipation of it would unquestion- ably prevent many strikes and lockouts disastrous to the industry and com- merce of the country. Any legislative measure to this end, it was urged should be regarded as a public matter of profound interest and vital import ance.
 If public judgment should be brought eventually to the point of conceding th= principle Of state intervention between master and man-for this is practically the meaning of measures like the Me permott bill-it should be only after al possible methods of private arrange ment, individual influence and socia suasion should have been tried ana tested in vain.

A high Chinese official, the taotai of Shanghai, has served notice that China is going to pay the July instalment Of indemnity at the rate of exchange pre- vailing April 1. last year, or not at al. This country thinks it only fair that hard-up China should be permitted to pay at that rate, and has said so en- phatically Grat Britain is willing to take payment in silver up to 1910. It is reported that the other powers are dis pleased with the United States and Great Britain, and there is something to be said on their side of the contro- versy. They are not going to spend this indemnity upon their own armies and navies. They are not collecting for themselves, but for the sufferers from the Chinese anti-Christian uprising. They regard themselves as trustees oL trust funds But China should not be crowded to the wall.

Our Prescott dispatches say that General Funston has made a distinctive
 hit with the people THE NEW of the mountain city, COMMANDER and we do not doubt
 it. He has been there long enough for the citizens to size him up.'' and that they like him is q matter of course, for Funston is of the western brand. He is sincere, frank and honest, unaffected and democratic. Perhaps the Prescott people are all the more pleased with him because he is not exactly what they expected to see. The stories of his adventures by flood and field and the daredevil" bravery he has shown on so many occasions. doubtless led many to suppose that he was such a hero as novelists picture. One would expect to find him at least nervous and impulsive On the con- trary, he is poise itself His great achievements and rapid promotion to a high place have in TO wise spoiled" him. He is quiet, almost to the point of diffidence. Yet there is something in his face which denotes great reserve strength, and a confidence in himself. Instead Of being the trouble-hunting daredevil type. Funston is of the class of men who do great deeds when there is great occasion for them. In braving death in the wilds of Alaska. in Death Valley, in Cuba, before Filipino trenches and ia Filipino jungles, it was to accomplish something practicaI-to perform 9 duty which seemed to be plain.
 Another reason, doubtless, fer Pres cott's so quickly taking to- General Funston is that upon making his ac- quaintance one is reminded of General Arthur MacArthur. The two men have many traits in common When Cen eral Macarthur visited Arizona few months ago he made more friends with ] in given time than had fallen to the lot of any military visitor since General Crook was at Whippie Barracks. Ari- zona quickly voted that Macarthur was all right His unassuming manners his ability to get into immediate touch with the people. and his ready under standing of conditions, when consid- cred with the titantic task he had per- formed in the Philippines. met appreci : ative response wherever he went in the territory. It is. and will be, the same with Funston. Both Funston and Mac Arthur entered the army as volunteers, both have won their way to the top most rounds by sheer merit, and each of them is a typical American.
 If Funston makes friends throughout the department as he has in Arizona he can well afford the luxury of few enemies in New England.
