BOB TAYLOR TALKS
 PARTY HARMONY

Knoxville, September 13.-Senator R. L.. Taylor gave out a statement tonight in which he speaks of general political con- ditions over the country being favorable in their outlook for democratic success at the polls in November. He tells of what the progressives have done in the western states, how insurgency is on the increase in republican ranks. Then he cites that there is no insurgency in the democratic ranks except In Tennes- see and from this he launches into an appeal to the democratic factions in Ten nessee to get together. He tells the in- dependents that if they persist in indors- ing the republican candidate for gover- nor in tomorrow's convention that they will put themselves outside the pale of the democratic party in the state and in nation. We must not" he says, "cruci- fy democracy on cross of treason; to refuse to accept the overtures of the followers of Governor Patterson would be nothing more than firing on a flag of truce and would mean the disruption of the party nof and for years to come. If would reach to the campaign of 1912 and might be the entering wedge to make a perpetual split and deliver the electoral vote of 1912 to the national republican party
 Senator Taylor left tonight for Nash vile to preach harmony to the warning factions

STILL GREATER VICTORY FOR
 DEMOCRATIC PARTY IN MAINE

the vote of the state for governor gave Col Frederick w. Plaisted, democrat. 78,- 644, and Gov. Bert M Fernald, republic an, 64.9l2, a plurality for Colonel Plaisted of S732 as against a plurality of S064 for Gov. William T. Cobb, republican, four years ago.
 The total vote of the two leading par ties yesterday was 13S,558. Four years ago 1t was 13O, 79O.
 Doubt still exists tonight regarding the result in the Fourth congressional dis trict, Congressman Frank F. Guernsey of Dover, the republican candidate, and George M. Hanson of Calais, democrat, each claiming victory by a snaall plurality
 In the First district Asher c. Hinds IS apparently elected by a plurality of about 300 over Willera H. Pennen, ds1n- ocrat, and vii loccupy the seat in Con- gress once held by Thomas B Reed.
 The Second and Third districts will have democratic congressman, as was shown by the returns last night, D. J. Mc- Gillicuddy of Lewiston. succeeding Con- ressman John P. Swazey, republican, in the district which Nelson Dingley. of Dingley tariff fame, formerly represented, while Samuel W. Gould of Skowhegan will be the successor to Congressman Ed ward c. Burleigh, republican, who has represented the Third district for the last IS years in Congress.

CONNECTICUT IS
 GIVEN SURPRISE

Hartford, Conn.,, September 13-The result of the Maine election came as a great surprise to the republican leaders of Connecticut and the result has been to alter somewhat the make up of the state ticket which the con vention will nominate tomorrow, The desire tonight was to strengthen the ticket and the altered slate, save the gubernatorial place, has been prepared as acceptable to the convention.
 The gubernatorial nomination had been carefully considered by the lead ; CTS in realization of the prominence of Judge Baldwin, the democratic nom- inee, and because it seemd impossible to gauge the strength of his possible opponents
 There was very little worry, how ever, manifested on the faces of near ly 600 delegates when State Chairman Michael Kenealy called the convention to order and presented Congressman E. J. Hill as temporary chairman
 Aside from MT. Hills address in terest was centered on the doings of to- morrow.
 The best prediction on the outcome of the vote for first place was not more than 20 votes would separate ex. Lieut. Gov. E. J. Lake and Charles A. Goodwin for governor

Portland, Me, September 13.-Complete returns of the vote for senators and rep resentatives in the state election yester- day gave the democrats substantial ma- jorities in both branches of the Maine legislature, which at the beginning of the new year will elect United States sena- tor to succeed Senator Eugene Hale, a secretary of state, state treasrer, attor- ney general and commissioner of agricul- ture.
