GAIN SEAT IN SENATE.
Democrats Control Maine Legislature
Which VIII Elect Hale'S Success.
sor-FOurth District Doubt.
fn1

Portland, Me-, Sept. 13.-Complete
returns of the vote for senators and
representatives in the, State election
yesterday gave the Democrats sub
stantial majorities in both branches
of the Maine legislature which at the
beginning of the new year will elect
United States senator to succeed
Eugene Hale, a secretary of state.
State treasurer, attorney general and
commissioner of agriculture.
The new legislature probably will
be called upon to carry out the decla-
ration of the Democratic party plat
forms of recent years and resubmit to
the people the liquor prohibitory
amendment to the constitution and to
repeal the Sturgis liquor law enforce
ment act.
According to the unofficial complete
returns the legislature will have a
Democratic majority of 36 on joint
ballot. The senate will consist Of 2l
Democrats and 10 Republicans, while
the house will have 88 Democrats and
63 Republican members. The last
legislature consisted of 122 Republi-
cans and 60 Democrats, the Repub-
licans having a majority of Is in the
senate and Al in the house.
Practically complete returns on the
vote of the State for governor gave
Plaisted, Democrat, 1854; Fernalds
(Rep), 64,e12.
The total vote for the leading par
ties yesterday was 1885. Four years
ago it was 1SO,79O.
Doubt still exists tonight regarding
the result in the Fourth congressional
district, Congressman Frank E.
Guernsey, of Dover, Republican can6i-
date, and George M. Hanson, of Calais,
Democrat, each claiming victory by a
small plurality.
In the First district Asher G. Kinds
(Rep.), is elected by plurality OF
about 800 over William H. Pennell
(Dem.), and will hold the seat in con-
gress once held by Thomas B. Reed.
The Second and Third districts will
| have Democratic congressman.

Saved From Awful Peril.

"I never felt so near my grave"
writes Lewis Chamblin, of Manches-
ter, Ohio. r. F. D. No. 8, "as when
a frightful cough and lung trouble
pulled me down to 115 pounds in spite
of many remedies and the best doc
rors. And that I am alive today is
due solely to DR.. Kings New Dis

Now I weigh 100 pounds and can

The Republican leaders in the First
district claimed Kinds election late
tonight by 200 over Pennell. In the
Fourth district late returns indicated
Guernsey's election over Hanson by
about 400.
In the face of the sweeping Demo-
cratic victory the Republican leaders
were overwhelmed with surprise and
the magnitude of their success aston
ished even the most sanguine Demo-
crat.
1t is the first beating the Republi-
cans of Maine, the State of Blaine and
Reed, had received in 80 years and by
a coincidence Harris H. Plaisted, faith
er of the present successful candidate,
was Names last Democratic governor
in the year 1881.
More Than Reversed.
Col. Plaisted, the governor-elect,
goes up to the capital with plurality
larger than that given two years ago
to his defeated Republican opponent,
Gov. Bert NJ. Fernald of Poland.
Col. Plaisted was born in Bangor in
1854. He ran for mayor of Augusta
five times and won four elections.
The Republican leaders as a rule
were at loss tonight to account for
their overwhelming defeat. The
weather was perfect. The issues were
we'll understood, and most Of the
speakers had confined themselves to
State matters, scarcely mentioning
national affairs.
Gov. Fernald's administration was
stoutly defended against Democratic
criticism of extravaganza.
Close political observers, however,
heard mutterings not loud but deep,
The so-called "old guard had to
stand a lot of party criticism and
even the leaders were out of har-
mony with a new element which had
begun to manifest itself, especially in
the western part of the State. 1t was
hoped among the hackers of the ad-
ministration of Gov. Fernald that this
unrest would subside and much de-
pendence was placed on the old-time
loyalty of the farming vote in the
back counties.
Insurgency in Air.
But insurgency was in the air. The
rural voter had been absorbing ideas
out of the State as we'll as in it, and
this was particularly manifested in
the Third district, where Congress
man Burleigh, with an 18-year record
at Washington, found himself tonight
| defeated by his old-time opponent
Samuel W. Gould, Of Skowhegan.
The victory Of Daniel ]. McGilli-
cuddy, of Lewiston, in the Second dis
trict was not so surprising as Con-
gressman John P. Swasey, of Canton
narrowly missed defeat in his Hrst
election two years ago.
Mr.. lIcGillicuddy served two terms
as mayof of Lewiston and has been
prominent in party affairs for many
years.
| He was chairman of the last State
i convention and delivered the battle

Reeds PrOtege Fought.

In the First district Asher G. Kinds,
whose talents as parliamentarian
were discovered years ago by Thomas
B. Reed, and who has sat behind half
a dozen speakers, including Joseph G
Cannon, was given a hard fight by
Former Sheriff William NJ. Pennell.
That insurgency has spread as far
as the Fourth district and up into
Aroostock county, where Congress-
man Frank r. Guernsey, of Dover, was
opposed by George W. Hanson, OF
Calais, was also disclosed by the ear
ly returns, and the result late tonight
was in doubt
The election passed off without any
unfortunate incident, in fact, it was
one of the quietest in years. The vote
was about an average one for an off
year and the total will run to about
100000. Gov. Bert NJ Fernald, of Po-
land, said tonight:
'I have no doubt from the returns
at hand that Mr.. Plaisted has been
elected by from 5000 to 5000. I don't
understand why the vote should take
such a sudden change in all parts of
the State"

DEMOCRATS SWEEP
STATE OF MAINE
ELECT GOVERNOR AND THREE OF
FOUR CONGRESSMEN.
First Defeat for Republicans of State
of Blaine and Reed In Thirty
Years. -,

Portland, Me-, Sept. 12.-Maine
went Democratic today. It elected
Frederick W. Plaisted, of Augusta, a
Democrat, as governor, upset the
hitherto solid Republican congress
sional delegation in at least two and
possibly all four OF the districts, and
to the surprise Of the political leaders,
Democrats as well as Republicans,
the returns late tonight indicated the
possibility that the next State legisla-
ture will be Democratic. The senate
will surely have Democratic major
ity. The house complexion is in
doubt.
Returns from all but 4S Of the elec-
ton districts of the State showed a
plurality for Plaisted for governor OF
$500.
The missing districts are nearly all

For Congress.
In the Second district, which was
formerly represented by the late Nell
son NJ. Dingley, father of the Dingley
tariff law, Daniel McGillicuddy was
elected congressman by 5000 over
John P. Swasey, the incumbent, and
CONGRESSMAN Edwin G. Burleigh, who
has represented the Third district
since 1892, was defeated by Samuel
". Gould, another Democrat, by a
small margin. The results in the
First and Fourth districts were much
In doubt late tonight, although the in
dications were that Asher c. Hinds
(Rep.) had won over William NJ. Pen
nell, (Deln) in the former, and that
CONGRESSMAN Frank E. Guernsey,
(Rep.) had been defeated in the latter
by George NJ. Hanson, (Dem.) by a
small vote.
Reeds District.
The First district seat was formerly
occupied by Speaker Thomas B.
Reed, while the late Charles a. Bout
ellie was distinguished for many years
as the Fourth district representative.
There will be at least Is Demo-
cratic senators out of 81, and As Dem
ocratic representatives out of l5l in
the next legislature, with indications
that the Democrats will have the
choosing of successor to United
States Senator Eugene Hale next
winter.
The vote for governor with IS small
districts missing was: Plaisted,
(Dem.) 72,70S; Fernalds, (Rep) 3d.
rs. The corresponding vote in 1906
also an off year, was /: Cobb; (Rep)
