BOTH PARTIES FEEL
CONFIDENT IN MAINE
From All Indications the Dem
oCrats Have a Good Chance
of Being Successful

PORTLAND, Me-, Sept 10.-A large
question mark symbolizes the present
situation in Maine at the close of the
state campaign tonight. For weeks
both the Republican party, which is
in power. and the Democratic party,
have engaged in efforts to arouse the
state. and the final rallies were held
tonight with both sides expressing con-
fdence that success will rest with them
when the ballots are counted Monday
night.
The rival candidates are the present
governor, Bert E. Fernald. of Port
land, leading the Republicans, ana
Frederick w. Plaisted, mayor of Au-
gusta heading the Democratic ticket
Besides choosing between these heads
of the tickets on Monday, the voters
of the state also will elect four STATE
auditors, four congressman. county Of
ficers and legislature, which will name
a successor to United States Senator
Eugene Hale.
While the contest for governor is
first in interest, it has no great mar
gin over that for congress In two or
the districts.
For the first time in years Republic
can leaders have been called upon to
fight stiffly in the first and second dis
tricts, which gave Reed and Dingley
overwhelming majorities election atter
election.
BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT
In the first district Asher c. Hinds,
of Portland, who has sat behind halr
a dozen congressional speakers as
parliamentarian is battling against
William Pennell, of Brunswick. a Tor
mer sheriff of Cumberland county IN
the Second district Congressman John
c. Swasey, of Canton. is fighting against
Daniel p McGillicuddy, of Lewiston.
Both sides claim to have made a
winning fight, but close political OBJ
servers believe that Swssey's success
is more doubtful than that Of Kinds.
The Democrats practically concede
the return of Congressman Edwin {.
Rurleigh, in the Third district, and
Frank E. Guernsey in the Fourth.
The fight between Fernald and Plais-
ted has been made primarily on state
issues Governor Fernald won two
years ago by 643 plurality over Obe-
diah Gardner, Of Rockland.
While declining to give out figures,
both state chalrmen issued statements
tonight claiming the election OF their
respective candidates for governor.

den is just now trying 20 get his books
Strengthened out, and in this connection
IL is claimed that there is nothing at

Furthermore, while there are only $40
acres in a section, Mr.. Cowden says
there have been many cases in his ex-
perience of men having returned 800
acres as being in one section. Similar
errors in ranges, townships, sub-divis-
