THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.

In Massachusetts, Gov. Foss is reelected
by 1874 plurality. Robert Luce, the Republic
can candidate for lieut.-governor, is elected by
about 1000, and the other Republican candi-
dates by lesser majorities. In New York city
Tammany's plurality of $3.50 one year ago
was cut down to about 1900 and the Republi-
cans gained 8 assemblymen in New York
county. They will have majority of SO in
the Assembly. The chairman of the Republic
can State committee says: "The results of the
election in every part of the State indicate
new confidence in the Republican party md
positive rebuke to the legislative record Of
1911 and to Gov. Dix" Rhode Island elected
a Republican governor by greatly increased
plurality. The State senate is solidly and the
assembly largely Republican. New Jersey
elected legislature Republican in both
branches. Kentucky and Mississippi elected
Democratic governors and State officers.
Maryland is claimed by both parties. The re-
suit in New Mexico is in doubt. OF the four
Congressman elected to fill vacancies the Re-
publicans elected two, the Democrats one. with
one in doubt Cincinnati and Cleveland elect
ed Democratic mayors.

Finding no possible way of thwarting
the will Of the people as expressed at
the POLLS the Governor and Council have
at last declared the result of the vote
or constitutional prohibition at the spec
ial election September 18th, and it is 1853
against repeal. Had the votes of the
four towns in which Irregularities were
alleged been thrown out there would
still have been majority of 366 against
repeal, ard the decision of the Supreme
Court in former count-out afforded
little encouragement for an appeal there.
So it was determined to accept the de-
cision OF the people and call special
session Of the Legislature to submit an
other constitutional amendment, framed
IN the interests of the liquor dealers and

for this season. Crops have been bounti-

we have seen two new and important in

addition to the shoe factory and a SUBJ

now nearly third gone, has been de-

For four years Leslie's has been fight
ing the muck-rakers in the interests of
the general prosperity. During this pc
Rod its circulation has risen from Sc, 900
to 341, 000-Leslie's Weekly.
This is encouraging, as Indicating re-
turning aason on the part of many who
had been led astray by the muck raking
magazines and yellow journals. In this
connection the oft-quoted remark of Lin
coin comes to mind: "You can fool all of
the people some of the time and some of
the people all of the time, but you can't
fool all the people all the time
Another evidence that yellow journal
ism is on the wane is the increase in the
circulation of the Boston Herald under
its present management. In the past
year its circulation has increased from
10000 to 100000 and is still growing.
The Herald has never been yellow jour-
nal, but it got into financial difficulties
and had lost much of its prestige when a
year ago it passed into other hands and
has been given new lease of life.
There are some excellent newspapers in
Boston that have no tinge of yellow, and
in this connection the Evening Trans
cript will come first to mind, but it also
has two specimens of the other kind that
resemble crazy quilts geographically
and are sensational at the expense of
truth and sanity. Compare either of
these papers with the Boston Herald as
to news and literary value and any intel
ligent person would throw the yellow
journal into the discard. The success of
the Herald and of Leslie's Weekly shows
that clean, honest, able journalism is ap-
preciated by discriminating public.
This is the day of the demagogue. In
high or low places the country over he is
found, melting class prejudices array
ing labor against capital, capital against
labor, promoting strikes, and creating a
widespread unrest that is a menace to
the general prosperity. His deluded fol.
lowers cannot see that he is actuated by
purely selfish motives; that political pre-
ferment or graft, or both combined, is
the end he has in view. The yellow
journals and the undertaking magazines
furnish him material and second his eff
forts. To swell their receipts from sub
scriptions and advertising they do not
hesitate to libel and defame, to make
charges they cannot sustain and to pub
fish statements for which they have been
compelled to make abject apologies.
Thus the demagogue and his organs have
inaugurated an era of destruction, and a
so-called progressive" political faction
has chosen for leader Senator La Fo
lette man who has declared himself in
his autobiography disciple of Robert
G. Ingersoll, of whom it is said:
His mission was to undermine the re-
ligious beliefs of those who would pay
the price to hear him lecture. Not once

Only the other day certain individual
not noted for his modesty was boasting,
not particularly of his ancestry but of
all who bore the same name as himself,
and of whom he declared: "We are
proud to say there are none in the Pine
Tree State that stands higher The
Old Testament tells US that pride
goeth before destruction, and naughty
spirit before fall" and it so happened
that last week one of this name was
lodged in Waldo county Jail for the illegal
sale of liquor. We were further told that
none of this name"were to be found in the
Maine State penitentiary since the day
that the first stone was laid for the
building of that institution at Thomas
ton,' but was not told whether this was
due to lenient judge or a hung jury
And, by the way, it was not many years
ago that one of this name was put out of
business by the U. S. authorities for de-
frauding the public, and for an offense
against the postal laws, was tried before
jury, convicted and sentenced to year
in the penitentiary at hard labor.
