THE MAJORITY OVER 5000
"As Goes Maine, So Goes the
Union," Is Likely to Remain
Tree. Make Good Start.

| Penland, Maine, Sept 13.-The DEM
ocrats of Maine had difficulty today
in contemplating the magnitude of
their victory yesterday in the struggle
with the republicans. With two
score of little, obscure forest towns and
island plantations to hear from, addi-
tional revised returns made early give
Colonel Fred w. Plaisted, (democrat)
42,711 votes for governor and Governor
Bert M. Fernland, of Portland, IRE
publican), $4,000 Plaisted's total plu-
rality is estimated to be $500.
While the election of Colonel Plaist-
ed and two democratic congressman
seemed a great feat, interest today CEN
tered in the makeup of the legislature,
which has decidedly changed COM
plexion. Revised returns show the
election of Asher q. Kinds, (republi-
cam, in the first district by 200; of
Daniel G. McGillicuddy in the second
by 3,0O0 of Samuel w. Gould, demo
craft in the third district by 1900 and
of Frank E. Guernsey, republican, in
the fourth 800.
If the legislature is captured by the
democrats it probably will mean the
re-submission to the people of the vex-
ed prohibitory liquor law and a chance
for local option in the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors.
The Sturgis act which has proved so
obnoxious to many and was denounc-
ed in the democratic party platform,
can be repealed. Certainly the act can
be made imperative by Plaisted with
drawing the present commission and
neglecting to appoint their successors.
Such a Legislature can also choose
successor to United States Senator
Eugene Hale and give Maine her first
senator since 1868 and New England
the first since the election of William
D. Eaton in Connecticut in the late
seventies.
The next legislature will have full
charge of re-districting the state.
Returns received up to 1880 a. M.
gave the democrats control of the
Maine senate with twenty -one of the
thirty-one seats. With but four rep
resentative districts to be completed at
1880 p. m. today the democrats had
elected eighty-four representatives and
the republicans sixty-three.
The democrats therefore are assured
of the control in join convention of
both branches of the legislature, which
will elect United States senator to
succeed Senator Eugene Hale.
Control of the legislature is of more
importance in Maine than in some of
the other states because under the con-
stitution number of the highest state
officers are chosen by that body.
These are treasurer, encouragement,
secretary and commissioner of agricul-
ture. The democratic overturn of yes
terday extends even to minor state Of
fees. Today's figures show that the
democrats elected thirteen of the six
teen high sherlffs in the state.
Criscom Says People We're Ready

New York, Sept. 13.-When the re-
suits from Maine were made known to
Lloyd @. Griscom, president of the New

"All the more important that New

with galena. When n. j. Jarvis, gem
eTal manager, returned from there,
which was soon after the find. deVel-

iently far along to give any definite
idea OF the extent OF the discovery. The
tunnel is now in 320 feet. with a depth
OF over 200 feet on the EOssan OutcrOp
on the surface. The Rainbow covers
fourteen claims, and is located on the
south side OF the canyon, about three
miles below the Alta group. Within
the next ten days Mr.. Jarvis thinks
the men will have pretty well opened
up the ore. He has been connected
with the Rainbow for many years.
