REPUBLICANS AGAIN CARRY
The STATE OF Maine

The republicans Of the state Of Maine
last Monday elected a governor and all
four congressman and secured control
of the next legislature, but they sus-
tanned heavy losses in pluralities from
the head Of the ticket down.
Congressman Littlefield and Govern
or Cobb attributed the almost unprece-
dented slump in the republican plural.
ity to the general dissa tisfaction Great.
ed by the Sturgis bill, passed two years
ago, for the purpose Of enforcing the
prohibitory laws.
Although the republican vote was
greater than four years ago, AN increase
of nearly 60 per cent in the democratic
vote pulled the republican plurality
down to one of the smallest ever re.
corded in the state.
