the writer of ''The Autobiography of an

say E. W. Howe, editor of the Atchison,
Kansas, Globe, who has four novels al
ready TO his credit as we'll as two volumes
recording his tour around the world.

There is no doubt but that many Re-
publcars voted for the Democratic can
didst4 for governor because he stood for
resubmission and the repeal of the Stur-
pis law. The Democratic platform adopt
ed in convention at Bangor says: 1--WE
denan,! the honest, thorough and impair
tial enforce ment Of all laws by our courts
and our duly elected officers and insist
upon the repeal of the obnoxious Sturgis
law" The author of this platform is
said 10 be Hon. w. R. Pattangall, who is
slated as leader of the minority IN the
next house, and this is the program he
has laid out:
No Democratic legislator could or would
vote to retain the Sturgis law. Neither
ought one. in our opinion, to assist the
Republicans in getting rid of it. Let the
majority party handle the matter to suit
itself. neither obstructing its will nor
lending it aid.
The attitute of Democracy on this
question should be that of spectator.
The Sturgis law is a Republican law.
The legislature is Republican. Let Re-
publicans handle the matter IN their own
way. 1t is their funeral, not ours. Let
them conduct the obsequies without out
side interference.
This is cold comfort for the Republicans
who voted for Gardner and is virtual
notification of the Democratic platform.
1t is a fitting sequel to the Democrat
campaign of mudslinging and falsehoods.
