RESULT Still IN DOUBT
1T Will REQUIRE THE OFFICIAL
CANVASS TO DECIDE MAINE
PROHIBITION ELECTION.

Portland, Sept. 14.-So close was
the vote in Mondays special election
on the question of the repeal Of con-
stitutional prohibition that even
when most OF the first unofficial re-
turns had been revised by mail re-
ports from town clerks that the re-
suit still is in doubt. Between the
press returns, al revised almost COM
pIetely by postal card reports from
towns and tytlerks, and the figures
of the secretary OF state, there Is a
marked discrepancy, the press re-
turns indicating majority of S47
against repeal.
Figures furnished by Secretary of
State Davis from Augusta compiled
from mail returns from all but thir-
teen cities and towns in the state.
with the missing thirteen supplied
from press returns, show an appar-
emit majority for repeal of l55 votes.
OF the thirteen town votes supplied
by press returns, four were received
by mail from the clerks and nine are
the early figures which II has not
since been possible to verify. The
figures of the total vote. as furnished
from the Office OF the secretary OF
state. including the thirteen towns
supplied to Mr.. Davis from press re.
turns, are: For repeal, 60.525;
against repeal. $3.50.
The total vote as indicated by the
press returns, was For repeal. So.
241; against repeal. 60.5SS.
In view Of the eloseness OF ths
vote. ii Is believed that only the Off
cial canvass of the vote by the gov
lernor and council will definitely de
termine the issue.

WILSON ON "oPEN" POLITICS.
Secret Methods Scored by the Esecu-
tive at Washington.

Washington, Feb. 2.-The National
Press Club of Washington tonight
celebrated "hobby night" DR.. william
Howard Welch of Johns Hopkins Uni
yersity Ambassador Byrce OF Great
Britain. Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New
Jersey, Major General Wood and
Franklin MacVeagh, secretary OF the
treasury, spoke ten minutes each on
their "hobbies."
In introducing Governor Wilson,
Thomas n. Page. master OF cere-
monies. declared that he well knew
the governors hobby was constitu-
tlonal government, but at present n
most important hobby OF the people
was the conservation and eXploita-
tlon OF presidential timber Governor
Wilson said that publicity in all pub
lie affairs was his hobby.
"The root Of all evil in politics
said Governor Wilson, "is private CON
cealment This is the complaint OF
the people of the country who do not
know the processes of their welfare.
The common interest can only be es-
tablIshed through the instrumemality
Of the facts, Really, what we are
after In the field OF politics is to
drive everything into the field OF
facts.
Politics has in recent years been
tied to the private arrangement OF
board of directors, sitting behind
closed doors and administering ev-
erybody's business as If 1t were their
business
II cannot imagine anything legiti-
mate that n man is doing that he need
be afraid to talk about I cannot I'M
agine any legitimate part of the man
agement of party or of the organiza-
ton OF political movement that can
not be talked about to anybody at any
time.
That is the whole political pur-
pose OF what we call the popular
movement. The popular movement in
our country is to change the machin'
cry of our government from privacy
to publicity; 1t is to chase 1t out OF
committee rooms; It Is to get at the
nominating press by widespread
method, which Is called the primary.
You cannot conduct a statewide pri-
mary privately"
Secretary MacVeagh talked about
the personality of President Taft
characterizing him as Statesman
rather than politician
