Republican Victories
Very Generally.
But tho JubiIation is Depressed
BY the Defeat Of Worthy
Candidates for Import
ant Offices.
The State Goes Republican and We
Elect All tho County Ticket Ex-
cept haskins for Represent
ative. Badger for Shcr.
iff and ricPhiilmy for
Commissioner.

Tho beautiful weather Of Tuesday did
not tempt large proportion OF the voters
TO tho polls. Something oye- fifty per
cent Of tho registered vote was polled.
This remarkably small vote is duo to two
principal reasons: Tho pressure Of work
among farmers and the lack OF enthusi-
asm in any party-e1cept, perhaps. the
Socialist. The Democrats declined to
show any marked interest in vindicasing
Gov. Adams on account OF his being
counted ou, two yeara ago. and tho Re-
publicans would not all quit harvesting
beets even to vote for so good candi-
date as Chancellor Buehtel and our ad-
mirabio county ticket.
The Republican County officials elected
arc all exceptionally well qualified for tho
duties OF tho positions TO which they
have been respectively elected. and tho
people o! tho county congratulate them
selves on securing officials Of such ability.
eompe,aney and integrity.
Tho defeat Of Mr.. Hssxins for repre-
sentative. and tho selection Of . Demo-
era, TO rspresen. Republican county Is
unfortunate. Mr.. Haskins deserved ov-
cry Republican vote not oniy because o!
ability ba, because tho Office Of repro
sentative Is directly connected with the
United States senatorial election. Can
didiy speaking. however. whilo Mr.. Has
kins has every Qualification for first
class representative. his nomination was
no. polite move for tho Republican
party. Mr. Hassiss 10 lawyer. and .
man more closely Identified with the
farming interests would nave been more
representative ard stronger candidate
In an agricultural community.

Maine" the summer suddenly ends
about the middle OF August and then
everything freezes up. Those who
have net yet been convinced to the
contrary should see some of the let
tiers daily received by the landlords
from the late vacationers who seek 10
secure lodgings even into October. But
most of the houses will be closed to-
ward the end of September and the
end OF the season hangers on will be
forced to take pot luck at nearby
cottages.
September is said by many to show
Casco Bay in its greatest beauty. They
s'outly maintain that il is the golden
month of the summer when this sec
ton shows most clearly its every bean
ty. Occasionally this month outriyals
July or August and the Bay sees Its
busiest life. II really looks from pres
ent indications as If this was to be
one of the occasions for many are en-
gaSing rooms for the month and 9TH
ers who have been here for several
weeks are deciding to remain over "a
week or two longer"
As soon as the visiting public knows
from experience that Maine has been
maligned and that it is not "uncom.
fortably cold" here while yet they
swelter at Newport and elsewhere,
then will We have a chance to find
greater glory in the apostrophe COM

LARGER HOTELS NEEDED.

A canvass made by one of our BUSH
ress managers among the hotel pro-
prietors on the several larger islands
~ Casco Bay has confirmed us i'm our
belief that what this section is mos;
In need of is more. larger. first class
hotels that will accommodate from
$50 to go guests.
All of the islands, particularly Long.
Cliff. Chebeagde. Littlejohn. Bailey and
South Harpswell. report that many
more tourists would have been glad
this summer to remain upon them had
they been able to secure desired ac-
commodations.
This has been an excellent seasor
Tor the landlords and all Bayites-bu,
IL Is not an abnormal one. In but
Ieeps pace with the yearly growing
popularity of Casco Bay and certain
IL Is that If this season we have beei,
unable TO cater satisfactory to our
growing patronage. next summer will
Ind us oyercrowded and people who
would have preferred to spend the.T
vacations here must be forced to %
elsewhere. That is poor business and
cannot be afforded. Just to show what
we may expect-The HarpsweII Steam
boat company feels warranted I'm put.
ting into commission a new. larger
steamer which will ply along the Bay
what are we to do with these who
patronize this steamer IL already we
are unable to accommodate those who
come upon the smaller boats? We must
he provident.
As the Bay Is becoming better known
better class OF tourists wend their
way hither. They have been accus-
TONED TO all Of the modern conven-
fences and are willing to- pay for wha,
they get. Do you suppose II will be
possible for us to- hold their patron
age and induce them to bring theii
friends here unless we can supply them
with what modern appliances have oe :
come for them necessities Of life? Sew
eral Of our leading houses have TAX
en- several steps forward in this mat
ter and have already reaped a reward
IN securing full registration of mos,
desirable visitors. Compare this with
the fact that the cheaper hotels and
boarding houses have complained of n
poorer season and you cannot but see
the point proven: In fact that Casco
Bays future depends largely upon the
progressiveness shown in the fitting
Ip Of first class houses before next
summer.
There surely are men looking for an
opportunity to make good money by
investment and here Is their field.
Here also Is prophecy that the music
OF hammer and saw will resound dur
ing the winter and early spring.
