maine ELECTION
A BIG REVOLUTION
First Democratic Victory in
New England State For
Thirty Years.
Maine's Democratic victory is a
political revol tion.

Maine's Democratic victory is
political revol tion.
A Democratic Governor is elected
for the first time i'm thirty years
a son OF the last Democratic Govern
or.
For the fist time since the begin
ming of the civil war Names Re-
publican representation in CongIess
Is utterly broken and shattered.
Three Democrats are eleo ted to the
House, with the possibility OF an en-
tire Democratic delegation. The Leg
isIature is close and n Democrat may
succeed Eugene Hale in the United
States Senate.
This is the most tremendous po-
litical upheaval that has taken
place In any distinctively New En-
gland State since Abraham Lincoln
was nominated for President. IL
foreshadows overwhelming Republi-
can disaster throughout the country
on November S.
Ii the Republicans cannot hold
Maine, what can they do in Ohio
and in the Ninth Virginia district?
What can they do in Indiana? What
can they do in New York? What
can they do in New Jersey and Con-
necticut? What can they do in any
state where there is n strong, aggIes-
sive Democratic party, where great
moral questions are at stake, rs is
the case in the ninth district
Republican managers have been
careful to explain that the campaign
in Maine was made on State issues.
In a sense this is true. But one of
the principal issues was Republican
extravaganza, an issue which is ma
tion wide. The Republican patty is
turned out of power in Maine
largely because it watsed the public
revenue, because it has misspent the
money of the people. What can the
Republicans of the country say that
issue, with this years appropriation
by Congress of 81 ,O9s, s47. lS4? With
the national government costing
So, 567, $50, &c for every working day
in the year
1t is well that the Maine election
turned on the issue of extravaganza,
for it shows that the public is at
last aroused to the vital importance
OF that question It shows that in
meeting it voters can no longer be
led astray by the old shop worn ap-
peals to blind, deaf and dumb par
tisanship.
But the Maine election shows far
more than this. It is a ne measure
of growing discomfort with Republi-
can administration. There is new
order OF things. Republican extrava-
gance, Republican corrpution, Re-
publican partisanship, Republican
partnership with corporations, Re-
publican jingoism, Rooseveltism,
and all the evils that have come out
of long established Republican DOM
ination are finally bearing theiI ripe
fruit. Maine read the Osawatomie
speech with its declaration or the
new nationalism-and voted the
Democratic ticket.
For this year at least, GAS Maine
goes, so goes the Union,' and even
with yesterdays revolution as an in
dex of the country will be astoundeC
on the morning of November 8 wher
it learns the proportions OF the Dem
ocratic victory, and the extent of th'
Republican defeat.
