Portland's Newspaper "Support."

a few days ago the Journal made the
prediction that the Portland papers
would be publishing in their own col
umnS the ready-made editorial which
they sent out along with their two
column advertisement to all the news
papers in Maine. and crediting the
same to these newspapers as an ex-
preston Of their editorial sentiments on
the capital removal question. 1t has
happened just exactly as we expected
and both the Portland Press and the
Portland Argus are guilty of this sharp
practice.
The readyrnadc editorial which they
sent out along with their advertise
ment appeared in several newspapers
throughout the State and now this is
demonstrating that these newspapers
favor capital removal and that they
are editerially endorsing the scheme
Truly the Portland boomers ara in des-
perate straits when they cannot get
any responsible newspapers outside of
that city to endorse their little game
without buying up advertising space
in these papers and then quoting the
advertisement ard reading notice as
h":nE the original and spontaneous ex-
preston of those newspapers.

of the State as a business Inrestmen mt
for our commercial metropolis? The
significance of the figures is much
greater when We note the sections from
which these petitions and remon-
strances have come. The following
table shows the counties from which

Der of signers from each county:

Those For and Those Against.

Since this capital removal proposition
has been before the Maine Legislature
various petitions for removal and va
rious remonstrances against it have
been introduced in the two branches.
Let US examine these petitions and re-
monstrances and by noting the number
and residences of their signers perhaps
we can get little light upon the
source and strength of this demand for
capital re.loval AMI upon the extent Of
the opposition which it has aroused
among the people of Maine. Up to yes
terday there had been presented TO tie
Legislature los petitions for capital re-
noval with a total of 6.526 signers.
There had also oeen presented against
removal exactly 600 circumstances with
a total of 4o,429 signers. Does not the
comparison of these figures show
something as to the SttItule Of the
l.eople ~ Main, regarding rouland'~
proposition to move the scat Of cur
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1907-03-12

That table has a different aspect.
hasn't it? Every one of the 16
counties is we'll represented and the
more the table is studied the more APP
parent it is as we have held from the
first, that the demand for removal is
solely a Portland demand and that
test in which all the rest of the State
joins with emphasis and earnestness.
Let us eliminate Cumberland and
kennebec counties as being of neoeS-
sity partisan and prejudiced in this
matter, and what have we left? We
have left 46 petitions for removal with
1873 signers against 500 remon-
strances with 35,045 signers. over 500
more people have signed remon-
strances against removal in the little
county Of Lincoln alone than have petit
toned for removal in the whole State
county, Over three times as many
remonstrantS in the single county of
Somerset than there are petitioners in
all of Maine outside of Cumberland
county, From York and Cumberland
counties themselves come as many
remonstrants as there are petitioners
outside of Cumberland county, Not
even Cumberland presents as many
petitioners for removal as Penobscot
presents rcmonstrants against it!
Let US make comparison by con-
Gressional districts. In the first district
there are 6O76 petitioners and 1853
rcmonstrants. This is a good begin
ming for the petitioners. but how is it
in the rest of the State? In the second
district there are only Eli petitioners
and 9.Sf4 rcmonstrants. In the third
district there is not single petitioner.
but there are 13.43S remonstrantS. In
the fourth district there are only o32
petitioners as against 1873 remon-
strants. Outside of the first district
there are only 443 petitioners and 3S.-
OIL remonstrants. How clearly it is
shown that the request for capital re-
moval is confined to the southwestern
corner of Maine. while there is over
whelming opposition throughout the
rest of the State.
The capital removal movement is
solely Portland movement and solely
in the interests Of that city as opposed
to the interests of Maine as a whole.
The people of Maine appreciate this
fact. as is shown in the above analysis
of the petitions and circumstances.
If still more evidence is needed, it is
which the Journal has published from
representative men in almost every
town in the State, outside of Kenne-
bee and Cumberland. men particularly
well qualified by their public positions
to voice the sentiment of their COM
munities. 1t is found in the fact that
at the legislative hearing not voice
outside of Portland was raised in
favor of removal. while leading men
from Somerset. Piscataquis. Penob-
scot. Washington. Androscoggin. OK
ford. Waldo and Aroostook counties
appeared to speak against it. 1t is
found in the fact that practically all
the daily and weekly newspapers in
every section of the State. outside of
Cumberland county, have opposed the
removal proposition from the first and
that only by inserting paid advertise
ments have the Portland people secur-
ed the publication OF anything favor
aflc to their scheme.
The people of Iainr have already
