The exercises on the old camp ground
Wednesday were marked by simplicity
and dignity which admirably beftted the
occasion. In the minds and hearts OF the
war veterans they renewed the most in
innate memories and associations of their
lives, and to all our older residents they
were hardly less impressive. For the
youth OF today their pervading spirit
was an object lesson in patriotism, self
sacrifice and fortitude. not soon to be

The Maine Election.

Maine did not go Republican Monday
after the dashing style of Gov Kent's
day. The Republicans carried the state
and reelected the four representatives in
Congress, but Cobb's plurality for gov
ernor was reduced from 26,S16 in 1904 to
5000 or less. Sixteen Of the 20 cities in
the state are Democratic and Gov. Cobb
failed by LA votes to carry his home city,
Rockland. The total vote as reported
Tuesday was Cobb 6s,6O4, Davis 60.267
but distant plantations" and islands
have not reported. Two years ago the
complete vote was Cobb 1851, Davis
1871. AS compared with 1904, on the
basis of figures at hand. Cobb fell off
69s7 and Davis gained 10,47 Congress-
man Littlefield, who was opposed by the
American Federation Of Labor under the
lead of President Gompers on account of
his vote against the anti-injunction bill
in Congress, was reelected, but his plu-
rality of approximately $500 two years
ago was reduced to about 1900. The
fight in Mr.. Littleheld's district attracted
the attention of the entire country, and
Secretary Taft, Speaker Cannon, Senator
Lodge and other Republican leaders went
into the district TO speak. The city of
Lewiston, where Littlefeld ran even with
his opponent two years ago, gave a plu-
rality of 1888 for his opponent. McGil-
cuddy, this year, and here evidently the
attempt to rally the labor element against
Mr.. Littlefield was successful. The fall
ling of in the Republican vote is ac-
counted for very largely through dis
satisfaction with the prohibitory law.
The Democrats were a unit for resub-
mission of this question to the people;
the Republicans opposed it in spite of the
protest of a respectable minority in their
state convention.

Publisher Frank e. Howe Of the Ben
nington Banner and Montpelier Journal
and Watchman, viii not receive a di-
ploma this year as an accurate forcaster
OF election results. During the past few
weeks he has visited a number of
counties in the state and last week gave
out as a conservative estimate that Mr.
Clement would lead in the counties OF
Bennington, Chittenden, Franklin Grand
Isle, Rutland and Washington-[North
field News.
Mr. Howe is certainly entitled to the
BOBBY prize in the political guessing con-
test. In addition to his representations
in the Banner he gave the writer some
friendly advice one bright day last spring.
Gov. Bell. he declared, would surely win
the congressional nomination in the Sec
ond district and Clement would sweep the
state in the contest for the governorship.

A paragraph published elsewhere in
this paper gives the facts about the plan
adopted by the Central Vermont railway
company to advertise the attractions of
Vermont for those who can take a vaca-
tion or an outing in the good September
and october weather, The plan, is, in
brief, to offer a general excursion rate
from Greater New York and various Con-
necticut cities to all Vermont points on
the companys lines, and return, of one
fare plus one dollar. These tickets are
good from Sept 15 to Oct 81. This will
doubtless bring many strangers TO the
state, and 1t should make many OF them
regular summer guests in future years.
