DEMOCRATS WIN IN MAINE
Again Carry II to 10 Cities but With
Reduced Malorltles

Augusta, Me, March 11.-Elections
were held in fifteen cities in Maine
today and the result was the same
as last year-the Democrats carried
eleven, the Republicans four. The
returns, however, show a total Dem
ocratic loss of 1000 votes.
These are the cities where the cleo
tons were held: Biddeford, Saco,
South Portland, Auburn, Lewiston,
Hallowell, Augusta, Wateryille, Rock
land, Bath, Bangor, Eastport, Brew
er, Belfast, and Ellsworth.
Interest centered in the Augusta
election. Mayor Reuel-J. Noyes, Dem
ocrat, was reelected by 1928 to 1850
for Frank G.. Harrington, Republican.
TheDemocratic majority of So is 81
less than that of last year, when
the same candidates ran. The Demo
Gratis elected five of the eight Alder
men, a loss of one. The municipal
campaign has been fought on state
political lines, local issues being ig-
nored.

A committee was appointed to
bring about closer cooperation be-
tween the agricultural colleges, the
extension departments and the ex-
pertinent stations. 1t was also voted
to appoint subcommittee to promote
the production and sale of certain
agricultural products in New England
notably milk and vegetables.
Mr.. Hale urged the extension Of
trolley freight service in rural com
munities and said: when this is
accomplished rural New England will
receive such an awakening as was
little dreamed OF a few years ago.
With electric lines properly tapping
this vast territory, the product of its
hills and valleys can within twenty
four hours reach the markets of 3d.
10000 people at a cost of $40 to $50
per car, while 1t costs 5000 TO place
the product of that far western land
upon the same markets.
Mr.. Duffy, speaking for the farmer,
said that the prosperity of New Eng.
land agriculture depends upon the
successful solution of the problems Of
transportation, distribution and CO
operation. He said that the parcels
post is a matter of common interest
to all and will be an important aid
in solving the high cost of living pro-
blem.
Mr.. Ellsworth urged the reclama-
ton OF the many thousand acres of
land located in easily drainable
swamps now useless for agricultural
purposes and said; "rhe great reclaim
alton projects Of the West, both pub
lie and private, show the opportuni-
ties which lie in work OF this sort
and have been too long neglected
here"

presented all parts OF New England.

fenced from st. Adams August 5, 1911
for eighteen months on a charge Of
burglary, and Ellis Cooper, sentenced
from Middlebury January last, to q
term of to "a months for forgery,
escaped from confinement and up to
midnight were still at large.
Larow and Cooper were employed
in the engine room, and were due to
report, at $3.50 to be locked up for the
night. A quarter OF an hour later
they had not appeared, and search re-
vealed the fact that they had gained
their freedom through a barred win

promptly telephoned to officers in this

The Pulse Watch.

Among the ingenious devices for the
physician may be mentioned a watch
constructed on the stop" principle
whereby the number Of pulse beats per
minute may be indicated. A push but
ton is pressed at the beginning of the
count and again at the twentieth pull
satlon, when the number OF beats per
minute Is shown on dial without the
necessity for calculation. Still another
push on the button brings the counter
back to the starting point. In the ordi-
nary method OF taking the pulse the
observer is obliged to do two things nj
the same tlme-count the beats and
keep his eye on the second hand OF his
watch. With the pulse watch only one
operation Is necessary, the counting OF
the pulsation up to twenty, when the
push button Is pressed. York

Washington, March 11.-A congress
sional investigation of the baseball
trust, the most audacious and auto
cratic trust in the country" was
proposed in a resolution introduced
by Representative Gallagher of Hin
ois today, The measure would create
special committee of seven repres-
entatiyes to inquire of the depart
ment of justice what steps have been
taken against the baseball trust as
against other illegal combinations,
to subpoena witnesses and employ
assistants.
1t accused the baseball trust" of
presuming ito control the baseball
game, its officials announcing daily
through the press the dictates OF a
governing commission; how competi-
zion is stihed territory and games ap-
portioned, prices fixed which millions
must pay to witness the sport; how
men are enslaved and forced to ac-
cept salaries and terms or be forever
barred from playing"
Chicago, March 11.-When inform
ed of the Gallagher resolution, Pres
dent B. b. Johnson of the American
League said
I'VE would be glad to have an in

night, coming here to join two nieces
from illinois, with whom he will leave

crossing satisfactorily at all points
along the route of the Elkhorn extern
sion and that the extension would be
opened on January l, 1914, the date
set by the contractors.
Mr.. Potter said the Clinchtield in
tended to spend $l,0O0,OO0 on the
Charleston Improvements, and that
about 100000 of it would be spent
lorthwith.
He said he believed the people OF
Charleston were awake to the situation
and that the Clinchfeld would do all
in its power to help develope the port.
Mr.. Potter said that for the last few
months he hvd been busy in New

the Clinchfeld, but that during the
next few weeks he would spend con-

York as il Woodrow Wilson would be
elected president. Sentiment is greatly
in his favor.
