The Republican Gains.

Talk about sunshine from cucunl-
bers. The Lewiston Journal says that
last Mondays elections showed I'M
portant Republican gains" Where
were they? In Brewer?-Waterville
Sentinel
Our Lewiston contemporary needs no
help in disposing of the Sentinel, but
this is a case where we cannot refrain
from joining in the good work of CIV
ing the Sentinel the light it yearns for.
Republican gains last Monday? Well
rather, What else was that increase
from 319 to 1913 in the Republican
majority in Bangor? What else was
the carrying of Augusta by the Re-
publicans on the aldermanic vote, and
the cutting down of Mayor Plaisted's
personal majority from the 40 of his
first term to 123 this year? Then there
majority of 40 last year was cut 10 "a.
It was a small difference, but such as it
gain. AS for Brewer, it could not well
improve over last year since it went
unanimously Republican then as it did
last Monday. Where were the Demo-
cratic gains last Monday? The
Sentinel will hunt in vain for them.
The differences in last Mondays vote
over that of a year before in the same
cities was wholly in the way of Re
publican gains. 1t was the same in the
earlier spring elections when the Re
publicans captured five cities held last
year by the Democrats. and lost only
one This is a Republican year. and
the Maine Democracy is in for an old
fashioned thrashing next September.
