now is to see the voters, talk with them,
show them how the matter stands, and

them to go to the polls and cast the

The time for talking is past. From

the full text of the letter of President
Roosevelt formally accepting the Re-

We recommend its careful perusal to

campaign, and this letter. therefore. is
his only public utterance upon the great
issues before the people.

Mr.. Davis charges the Republican
party with extravagant legislation
Well, as the result of that legislation
liberal provision for public needs and
purposes has been made, the State bills
have been paid. the State debt and
interest burden and the tax rate have
been reduced one-half or more, the
State bills have been paid, the State
closed the last year with the largest
cash balance in its treasury on record
and in view of the accumulated and
prospective surplus a further tax re-
ductiOn is advised. A policy Of wise
liberality such as has been pursued in
this State is far different from the
policy of extravaganza imagined bv
Mr. Davis.
He points out that certain members
of the Republican State committee are
salaried officers of the State or ma
tional government, but he does not
venture to assert that this is illegal.
If it were so. he would himself be a
law-breaker. because while holding
public office he is taking up much of
the time conducting Il campaign for an
other office and is showing greater
partisan activity than almost any other
man in Maine. In principle it is no
worse for the others to do this than for
him.
He says that the amount Of State
salaries and expenses was much larger
in 1903 than in 1882. 1t is naturally so
in the lapse of twenty years with the
growth of the State in wealth and tho
increase of the public demands. No

the scale of living in 1882. A dozen new
