VIM. T. Haines for Governor

1t is very evident from information
obtained from all sections of the
State that Mr.. Haines will be the Re
publican nominee for Governor. Eri-
dence obtained from many sections of
the state shows that his strength has
been constantly increasing, and 1t Is
generally believed that his vote will
be an Overwhelming majority.
After a very careful consideration
of the claims of the different cand-
dates, we are compelled to say that
we believe the nomination in justice
and fairness belongs to Mr.. Haines.
We are also constrained to say that
we believe that his extreme popularity
with all classes of our people makes
him the most eligible candidate for
the Republican party to place before
the people of Maine.
Mr.. Haines' wide acquaintance
throughout the state, his large bust
ness experience. his generally rec
ognized fairness and honesty in all his
dealings, his thorough understanding
of the affairs of the state from long
experience in various offices which
he has held In the past, his popularity
as a public speaker, and the conyinc-
ing manner with which he Is able to
place his ideas before the people,
certainly insures us a campaign in
which the leader of the Party will not
be a load but on the other hand, a
source of constant strength as the
head of the ticket.
From every section of Somerset
county word comes in: I'VE are all
for Mr.. Haines. Haines is the man to
lead us to victory in the coming con-
test" Unless we mistake the signs
of the times, or our vision is abnor
mally distorted, the handwriting Is
on the wall that Maine goes for Mr..
Haines in September by an old-time
majority.
We trust all of our people will get
out to the primaries and place behind
our candidate such an overwhelming
vote as will show him from the start
to be a sure winner
While we are to vote for the first
time at the primaries. and no one
knows just what the result will be,
and our county is farming county,
where the people are still engaged in
planting crops, and the time spent
going to the polls means good deal
In planting time to the average farm
er, we do believe that there Is no
time that will be spent that will be so
productive of good results to the
farmers of Somerset county, as it will
to devote little time on Monday next
to see to it that Mr. Haines has a
large vote behind him in this county
Everybody knows his interest in our
agriculture His loyal support of our
State college for many years has
made him many friends among the
farmer boys.
More than this, the retention of the
primary will depend very largely up
on the manner in which the people
use it. A small vote may lead to its
repeal We hope to see large vote,
which will justify the law. If the
people want to rule, they must use
this method of voting. Otherwise,
it will be said that they prefer for the
bosses to rule for them.

could not be shortened without emitting SUD-
jects demanding as of right at least a passing
consideration
The editorial embarrassment in such case
is the necessity of either picking and choosing.
or OF suppementing one obvious document
with another. We prefer to pick and to lay
emphasis on that portion of the Governors
message which has to do with the progress
of temperance in the State That this is
timely, that 1t Is possibly the most important
part of the message. Is indicated. 10y the fact
that the question of the passage OF an enabling
act is that which engrosses popular interest
when the Legislature and its prospective action
comes under the discussion of the man on
the street.
. Governor Mann has done a real service at
this time in pointing out graphically the dis
tance which the temperance sentiment has
gone in virgins. thereby inspiring the inevi-
table influence and conclusion as to how far 1t
is to go The bare figures hold a quality OF
wonderment.
There are S. out of 100 Virginia counties
which dc, not know saloon.
There are G6 counties III which there is no
form of license whatever
There are eleven counties in which there is
one license each, and four in which there

are dry" as against II of that population or
less which have license.
OF 10 cities eight have banished the saloon
by popular vote.
The Governors conclusion is that, under the
operation OF the Mann" and the BYRD laws.
at least two-thirds OF the State are now living
Under prohibitory conditions SO far the sale
OF liquor is concerned.
Nothing more enlightening than these facts
could be cited as showing forth the iustness
of the demand for the bare right to vote upon
