something entirely unexpected by
either party, and an unlocked for re-
suit for the factional fight in the Re-
publican party that forced tho retire
ment of Hale. For the first time since
its organization the Republican party
has been routed completely in Maine.
The result is a surprise not to say
shock to the Republican leaders who
supported the Fernald administration,
but causes much rejoicing among
those Republicans who revolted
against Fernald and what Is known as
"the Kicker crowd" meaning the rich
Rickers. of Poland Springs. who two
years ago put Fernald forward for gov
ernor and who have since been en-
gagged in building up an organization
to combat the old guard" and send
Judge Frederick Powers to the United
States senate in place of Eugene Hale.
This rebellious faction of the party
contributed much to the triumph Of
the Democracy, while for the rest It is
attributed to general disgust at polit-
ical abuses under prohibition and ex-
travagance in state expenditures dur
ing Fernald's administration.

Senator Was Excluded.
CLUB W|TAORAWS INVITATION
Former President Refuses to Associate
With Men Accused of Election Brib-
cry In Illinois.


cry In Illinois.
Mr.. Roosevelt didn't mince matters
in his speech before the Hamilton
club, of Chicago. He hi out straight
from the shoulder and told the men of
Illinois that the four men who have
been indicted for brbing the legisla-
ture and the four who have confessed
have committed most infamous trea-
son against American institutions.
The colonel told Chicago that they
ought to be ashamed to allow men of
corrupt leanings to represent them in
the Legislature. He said that any sane
minded man who had read the reports
of the two district attorneys engaged
in the Lorimer case could arrice at
only one conclusion. He didn't me-
on every point.
One of the important points that
Colonel Roosevelt brought out was the
fact that it is not necessary to convict
a man in a court of law to be able to
drive him out of public life.
Law honesty isn't the only thing, he
said. If you know he Is crooked. cinch
him. The people have power in cleo
tive offices. he declared The admin
istrative heads have the power of re-
moval from appointive Offices.
Mr.. Roosevelt refu ed to sit at the
same table with Lor mer. AS soon as
he heard that the Illinois senator, who
has been in the limelight concerning
bribery charges Of his election, was
scheduled to appear at the Hamilton
club dinner Mr.. Roosevelt angrily de-
clared that in that case he wouldn't
attend. He was very emphatic in his
declarations, too.
Members of the Hamilton club tried
to dissuade Mr.. Roosevelt from hasty
judgment A large crowd pricked UP
their ears in order to catch every
word The colonel talked sufficiently
loud for every one to hear. He had
made up his mind and nothing on
earth could change It, he said.
Judge John H. Batten told Mr..
Roosevelt that he would ask Senator
Lorimer to withdraw, but the colonel
would hear of no such thing. He in
sisted that Lorimer be informed that
Roosevelt had refused to associate
publicly with him and there wasn't
room for the two of them at the din
ner. He could do that or leave the
colonel out of 1t.
After conference that was mighty
brief, the Chicagoans decided to send
this message to Senator Lorimer:
Colonel Roosevelt positively declines
to sit at the same table with you. Our
invitation to you is therefore with
drawn"
The colonel was satisfied when he
saw this message and took occasion
to reiterate his absolute refusal to
have anything to do with Senator Lor-
liner.

The accident to the oil fuel system
of the North Dakota is the first of the
kind that has occurred In the navy
since oil as an auxiliary fuel was in
troduced few years ago. Under the
system In use In the navy the oil is
conducted through pipes to a settling
tank, which is located In the fireroom.
This tank is for the purpose of allow
ing the water to be separated from

oil is forced through pumps and then
