"As GOES MAINE. so GOES

The State of Maine is the largest
unit in which an election has been
held since November, 1908.
The great Democratic victory there
lately adds another to the popular
expressions of the past Indicative
OF the tremendous growth in anti
Republican sentiment in the country
at large. 1t is to be noted that, be-
ginning with the expression of the
Sixth Missouri District last Febru.
ary, those expressions have increased
IN deci>iveness and significance as
November, 1910. came nearer and
nearer.
Special influences that did not
attend the earlier popular express
sions elsewhere had an effect on the
Maine voting. Many of the Repub-
lican leaders and many of the Repub-
lican rank and file not only hoped for
a Democratic victory in the State,
but exerted personal effort to that
end as the only practical means they
saw to a discontinuance of prohibi-
ton.
The prohibitory system in opera
tion in Maine is conceded by all dis
interested observers to be dismal
failure, and by none more frankly
than by Maine observers themselves.
The relations, however, of leaders
who direct the State Republican Or
ganization OF Maine to that issue are
such that, while they found difficult
ties in taking the initiative for re-
peal. they personally and privately
admitted that repeal had become
necessary. Summer tourists return
ing to the West from Maine watering
places have for some time past de-
scribed curiously complicated condi-
tions growing out of the prohibition
question.
1t must not, however, be supposed
that the elections only significance
relates to the future of the Maine
prohibition law. The Republican
who voted against his party in the
hope that Democracy might find
way out of the deception and law
breaking and hypocrisies of prohibi-
tion has been numerous in past cam
paigns. This year he was re-en-
forced by the Republican who looked
to Democracy for relief from Aldrich-
ism and Cannon, and by the Repub-
lican who looked in the same direc-
tiOn for relief from g. o. p. extrava.
gance as exemplified in the State
budget and from other abuses insep-.
arabic from the rule OF a party that
has been long in power.
The prediction of Chairman Nc.
kinley of the Republican Congress
sional Committee that Maine was
sure to 60 Republican was disproved
in twenty-four hours. 1t will take q
little longer to disprove his predic-
tions about the result Of the national
elections in November. That they
will be disproved, however, seems
most probable.

The Spokane Chronicle advises the
modification of the present law rela-
tive to the annual registration of
voters. who are known to have been
for long while residents of q given
ward or district by the registration
officials. The suggestion possesses
merit. Why should qualified voter
who has resided in one ward for
twenty five years or more. after his
first registration be compelled to GO
each year to the City Clerks Office
to have his name entered on the list
in order to exercise the right given
him by the elective franchise?

THE MAINE BENT.

In all likelihood the result of the
November election will be more
sweeping and surprising than any
thing that even very confident an
tagonists of standpatism would now
think it rational to predict. That is
way all popular expressions of the
year have had up to date-a way of
being sweeping and surprising in their
emphatic disapproval of G. o. p.
policies and the e. 0. p. national ma
chine.
The present climax of the astonish-
ing result in Maine is probably only
one point in the crescendo that will
reach still higher point on Novem-
Der 8.
Maine furnishes the nucleus of that
representation which is to give a
Democratic majority in the next Con-
gress. 1t has reduced its Republican
delegates at Washington by at least
so per cent. Atleast two Democrats
will sit in Congressional seats in
which Maine Republicans lately sat.
The size of the majority on the State
ticket is away beyond what Demo-
cratic leaders had been led to expect.
Instead OF only eight members out of
thirty-one in the State Senate. Dem
ocracy will have twenty-one out of
thirty-One. The election of eighty.
five Democratic candidates for the
lower house makes it certain that
Senator Hale will be succeeded by q
Democrat.
The same combination of local and
national influences that influenced the
Maine voters are present. not only
in all New England, but in New York,
Ohio. Michigan and Minnesota and in
other States whose delegations at
Washington are now overwhelm-
ingly Republican.
If the Maine bent and the Maine
proportion of reduction of so per
cent in the present Republican re-
presentation is maintained in other
States, which now have Republican
delegations, the Champ Clark predic-
ton last spring Of $50 Democratic
majority in the next House will be
more than fulfilled.

FOUND
The Body OF Alma Keiiner Who
Was Kidnapped From Her
Home in Louisville
Last December.

While cropping in the mud and
water beneath St. Johns parochial
school, in Louisville, Richard
Sweeth, a plumber, discovered the
skeleton of Alma Kellner, who
was kidnapped from her parents
home in Louisville last December.
Every bone in the child's body,
together with the head, had been
crushed and broken. Part of the
skull and the leg bones were scar
ed, as though they had come in
contact with fire. There were
evidences of quicklime having
been applied to the flesh.
The little shoe on the left foot
had been ripped in the instep.
The police, detectives, Coroner
and Mr.. Fchr are all convinced
that the child was the victim of
some abnormal brute or degener-
ate. All evidence points to a foul
and CHASTITY murder.
\ former janitor, Joseph Wind
ling, of this school is suspected of
the crime. He has been away
since January 18th. His wife was
closely questioned and gave the
name of the woman who washed
the CORY garments of the little
girl. Easements were drawn from
her that it is believed will lead to
the clearing up of the mystery,
and will lay bare one of the cold
est blooded crimes in the annals OF
crime.

The Curry campaign presents a new

Wherever they turn they find Curry
men working away unobtrusively but as
if they intended to bring home the..ba-
con. The Curry campaign has been
actively under way for five months.
Only Curry and a. few of the men d.
rectly associated with the management
of his canvass have even an approx
mate idea of what has been accom-
plished. Not a county has been over
looked. Each has its organization and
each organization is at work. There is
a card index scheme that would COM
pare favorably with anything Frank
Hitchcock ever employed, and Incl
dentally that card index incloses some
thing like $1,000 individual pledges of
support for Curry.
If the supreme court had decided that
the old register could be used in the
preparation of petitions and for the
purposes of the primary election the
pledge cards Curry now has would al
most assure his nomination in a four
cornered race. That his organization is
out to see that the Curry men are
registered is indicated by the returns
from Alameda county where over 80
per cent of the republican registration
to date has been signed UP for Curry
by his verification deputies
