Col. Higginson Deserts Bryan.

Colonel Il. w. Higginson is one of the
old guard of the Massachusetts
Democracy. When Bryan first got
into the habit of being presidential
candidate. Colonel Higginson Loyalty
supported him. while the conservative
members of the party were deserving
the Democratic standard by the thou
sands A third dose of Organism,
however. is too much for the veteran
Boston banker. and Colonel Higginson
is now out openly and emphatically for
Taft and the whole Republican ticket
Hearing a rumor that Colonel Higgin-
son had deserted Bryanism. the Boston
Herald communicated with him in or

stood. He replied in the following in

writes:
Il regard my own opinions on the

them: but In answer to your request |

have learned by observation to regard
as an essentially shallow and unstable

There are hosts of Democrats. even

the menace is always there. 1t is the

A Striking Contrast.
Oath AnVil.)

N1dlH AHNiiD
The Democratic press persists in its
campaign of calumneS against Re
publican candidates.
one Of the leading dailies advocating
the election of the Democratic ticket
gave the upper half of its first page
Monday morning to the recital, under
scare heads, OF hcarsay reports to the
effect that Hon. Bert NJ. Fernald, the
Republican nominee for Governor. had
overcome early opposition to him in
Bangor by a deal with the local liquor
interests. promising Tat if he be-
comes Governor of the State the Stur-
gig law will be repealed, he will pro-
mote so far as possible a return to
fines instead of Imprisonment, and the
way will be thus opened for a return
to the Bangor plan, or any other meth
cd of notification of the prohibtory
law that may seem convenient for the
liquor sellers.
OF course. everybody who knows Mr.
Fernald, knows we'll enough that the
story is made out of whole cloth. and
that tine clean. honest young business
man whom the Republicans with
unanimous voice have chosen to carry
out their program of progress and re-
form in the management of State af-
fairs is incapable of such methods Of
procuring himself an office. The
canard does not deserve notice, and
we are pleased to observe that thus
far Mr.. Fernald has ignored it. 1t is
the course Of self-respect.
But the methods which are being
used in this campaign by the Demo-
cratic press cannot be too severely
condemned. For weeks they have
been ceaSelesSly and SlanderouSly i'm
puSning the honor of the Republican
Notwithstanding false and mali
cious statements and persisting in re-
iterating the ISLANDERS after they have
been conclusively controverted by the
injured parties.
The Republican press, on the other
hand, has conducted the campaign
with great dignity, debating the ques-
tons at issue seriously and ably, and
has absolutely refrained from ques-
tioning either the honor or capacity Of
the gentlemen who have received the
Democratic nominations.
The respective attitudes of the press
of the two parties will, We are sure.
have their logical effect The serious
dignity OF the RepuDlcan organs, ana
tho weight of their arguments, will
win the ears and hold the respect of
the people in exactly the same pro-
portion as the Democratic mud sling
ing will arouse the popular disgust
The intelligent Maine electorate will
be sure to realize that the Democratic
editors. finding themselves wnrsted in
argument. have taken to mud throw
ing to divert the attention of their
readers from the real issues of the
political fight and to cover up their
own defeat.

Courage Rewarded.
Oath AnVil.)

No matter how good an opinion il
might have of itself and it's members,
no more courageous step could be
taken by any party than to institute
cold, searching investigation into the
expenditure of public funds by officers
chosen from it's ranks during a long
period of it's political power. No mat
ter how high the ideals of any aggre-
cation Of men. there are almost always
to be found among them at least Il
richment by hypocritical show of sup
porting the lofty purposes of their
more sincere fellows.
That is why it was a sublimely
heroic thing for the Republican Party
in Maine to institute through the new
State Auditor. a man Of the highest
integrity and ability. a thorough in
vestigation into the expenditure of the
public funds of the State of Maine
during the last IS years.
And the same reason that made the
action heroic makes the result nothing
short Of astounding. for Auditor
Hatch found tha& every cent of the
millions of dollars of the States money
spent in those % years was fully and
properly accounted for.
1t would be safe to bet and give long
odds that no party in any State in the
Union could come off so honorably
from the same kind OF test.
Auditor Hatch's findings speak elo-
quently of the quality of Maine citi-
zenship, and particularly Of the high
quality of the public service rendered
by the men Of the Grand Old Party.
the ISLANDERS Of the Democratic press
to the contrary notwithstanding.

is nothing in his interview respecting

Mr. Pennrll gets aro:lnd this point by
emphasizing State issues. He is too
discreet to say that the Democrats of
Maine are shouting with joy over the

he illustrates the truth of the saying
that discretion is the better part Of
valor. But we wonder just the same

MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
A Prophet With Discretion.
tPDrtlapJ AdyertiSar

The lost is found. For several weeks
there has been curiosity as to the
Whereabouts of William NJ Pencil,
sheriff of the County Of Cumberland
and erstWhilr leader of the county
time. we have heard Of Mr.. Pencil as
being III thu city but his form has not
srac"d the platform of the nelghbor-
hood rallies and his voice has not been
lifted to cheer the hearts of the faith
full. However, it is all right now. Mr..
Pennrll. while silent in Maine, has I'M
dertaken the task of cheering up the
party in the country at large. The
news dispatches tell us that he has
been paying call at the headquarters
of the national committee in New York
He has told them that Maine will go
Republican by a reduced majority This
is modest claim. Democratic spell
binders in Maine are telling their au-
dienccS of the chances of carrying the
State. sheriff Fennell in New York
does no1 stultify himself with any such
ahSurdlty. He wants to say something
cheerful but he proposes to say 1t with
discretion. Therefore he predicts a Re
publican victory qualifying the prcdic-
ton with the statement that the ma
Jority will be small. OF course, this
will make it difficult for the sheriff to
take part in the speaking hereabouts
To make them consistent with his New
York uttcrance he might. of course,
begin his remarks thusly
Fellow Democrats-Be of good cheer.
You will be defeated Mr. Gardner can
n1t be Governor. but remember, if YOU.
stand together and go early TO the
polls. you may reduce the Republican
majority. Let US give three cheers for
the defeat If our candidate by reduced
majoritias."
1t is doubtful if there would be great
volume III the cheering But Mr. PEN
nell has Eeen heard from He Is still a
Democrat with diScretion-and discre-
ton is the better part of valor. OF
course, that reduced majority may not
be shown by the election returns. hut
even SO the sheriff is better Off as a
prophet than he would be had ne pro-
claimed prospects of a Democratic vic
tory in the State.
In another respect the sheriff shows
his wisdom. He refrains from telling
an expectant country of the enthusiasm
