Republican State committee:
At Sacranac Inn, N. Y.
August H. 1908.
Hon. Byron Boyd,
Chairman Maine Republican State
Committee, Augusta, Me.
Dear Sir: Your letter of the 9Th
instant has been forwarded to me
here, and I thank you cordially for
the invitation to visit Maine during
the State campaign 1t would give me
much pleasure to do this and to render
any assistance within my power to
your committee. But ] regret that
my engagements make it impossible
to be with you during the period men
toned. The next few weeks a large
number Of county fairs and other or
CARNATIONS in this state hold their
annual meetings. and am over
whelmed with urgent invitations. only
small number of which I can accept.
But in view of what is due our agri-
cultural societies, l must meet as many
of these demands as possible, and my
list of engagements is such that with
the exception of my visit to Youngs-
town, Ohio. on Sept. 5, it is not likely
that I shall be able to go out of New
York during the next four or five
weeks. For this reason I was obliged
to refuse Governor Proctor who asked
me to speak in the Vermont state cam
paign.
Greatly regretting that cannot meet
your wishes, and in the hope that you
will have a most successful campaign,
| remain
Very truly yours.
CHARLES f. HUGHES.

The Scandinavian. the leading
the United States. in its North Da-

good work in enacting legislation
favorable to the homesteaders.

better the sturdy worth of the pio-
neer settlers than Congressman
Gronna and no member of congress
mas been more loyal to the interests
Of his constituents. He has remain

tative of the Scandinavian people,
there is no man in the state worth

Gronna and he will have a splendid
following at the primaries.
In addition to his good work for
the homesteaders of the state, Mr..
Gronna has splendid record as a
member of congress in his efforts in
behalf of the farmers. He has stood
FOR increased rural mail facilities,
for better protection of bank deposits,
and has been numbered among the

CONGRESSIONAL
in The SENATE

Washington. D. c., March 26.-
Although the senators went to the
capitol today expecting to devote
their time to considering the cur
.rency bill, their attention was divert
ed to the credentials of Senator
Elect Walter Smith of Maryland.
The result of the long debate was
the admission of Mr.. Smith to his
seat. The currency bill was then
taken up and amendments were
considered.
At 6:12 the senate adjourned.

In one of the most scathing ar

One thing that has been called to
the attention of the democrats at their
state convention is the necessity of
democrats voting their own ticket at
the primaries if they desire to get
on the primary ballot as party. 1t
is feared by some of the democrats
that the struggle between the stall
warts and insurgents may lead some
of the minority party to vote a re-
publican primary ticket. Unless the
democrats get third of their party
strength as cast at the last election
they cannot get on the official ballot
in the fall under the primar5 law.
This condition is apt to keep the dem.
ocrats playing in their own yard.
And it is we'll that there should be
such a provision We do not want a
primary law under which the demo
Gratis can help settle republican diff
ferences at the primaries and then
have the opportunity to vote their
own ticket at the election.

A report with reference to the re-
publican convention in Bottineau
county, to the effect that the con-
vention was controlled BY the insurg-
ents and that resolutions were pass
ed in opposition to Alexander Mcken-
zie, circulated by insurgent newspa-
pers, is denied by disinterested re-
publicans who participated in the
convention. There was no test OF
strength as between factions and no
resolutions to the effect stated were
passed by the convention. The dele

warts and insurgents, and the report
that has been circulated is untrue
and intended solely for purposes OF
prejudice.

The result of the democratic con-
ventton at Grand FORKS was not un-
expected. While there is in the state
a considerable sentiment in favor of
Johnson, the rank and file of the
party stands for Bryan and the eff
forts to switch the convention from
Bryan to Johnson Began too late.
North Dakota was counted upon as
one Of the states that would perhaps
declare for Johnson and thus make
it possible for Johnson to be nom
mated as a compromise candidate,
by depriVing Bryan Of the necessary
two-thirds to carry the convention
The outlook is that Bryan will have
the Denver convention without diff
Guilty. The matter of principal in
terest aside from the Endorsement of
a presidential candidate was in the
selection of q national committeeman
This goes to the northern part of
the state, William Collins of Bottin-
eau county defeating Cole and WHIP
perman. Cole, however, heads the
nominees for presidential electors,
and Kelly CT Ramsey, who was also
candidate for national committee
man, gets place on the electoral
ticket. The convention was large,
and the democrats are encouraged
through The election of two candi-
dates at the last election, with the
help of insurgent votes. to hope that
there is a chance to carry the state
for the presidential ticket this year.
This is cut of the question, of course.
but with a united democracy, it will
be well that republicans lay aside
fractional and personal prejudices,
quit encouraging attacks upon lead
ers of the party and get down to
work for republican success in the
state all along the line.

number of the state papers are
placing themselves in a position to
do little good to the republican par
ty after the primaries in June, by
their bitter attacks-and entirely un-
called for-on some of the candi-
dates for official position, says the
Walhalla Mountaineer. The true
party paper, as we'll as the true par
tizan citizens, should be in a position
to do efficient and unhampered work
for the nominees of the ticket after
the primary, and it may just happen
that the men who are now being the
most villified will be the ones that
get the votes, in which case it will
be impossible for newspaper to
laud the man it is now abusing, with
any degree of success. AS a matter
of fact, the country will not lose or
gain particularly by any one of the
candidates securing the nomination,
and certainly there is no call for the
rank abuse of any one OF the gentle
men which some of the papers feel 1t
their pleasure to indulge in. The
Mountaineer will support the repub-
lican ticket nominated at the prim-
airy election in June, believing that
the people have a right to their
choice rather than set itself in judy
ment on them and compel its per-.
sonal preference While many shout
for their favorite and abuse all 9TH
ers, and talk Doodle and collar
it would be found that they are work
ing to earn the price that was paid
for their services, if all the facts
could be made public.
