Oldest House in America.

The oldest house in America is in St
Augustine, Fla, and was built in 1866
under the direction of Menendez ue
Aviles, the Spanish explorer, who landed
there from fleet of "a ships with the
intention of founding a city on the spot.
The house has no pretensions to architec-
ture. having been probably the work of
sailors. The walls are very thick and are
covered with a mixture of shell and sand
which time has hardened to rock. Tho
interior was not completed until other
buildings had been erected, and il was
then manifestly fitted up by skilled wood
workers, as the doors. mantels, window
castings, etc, are all of beautiful native
woods highly polished and handsomely
carved.
The house has only two stories with
two rooms to a floor. and one square.
shutterless window to a side. There are
none at all on the top floor. but 1t Is
lighted from the roof. There are traces
of ironwork ON the inside window
frames, showing they were fitted with
heavy shutters that could be put in place
with iron bars in case of attack. The
sloping roof was shingled. but these
shingles have been replaced many times
since it was built, and now are nearly
all off. permitting rain and sun to pour
into the chambers that once sheltered
many a Spanish grandee or soldier Of
fortune.
! The old house stands in poor quarter
of the town. surrounded by old barns and
negro quarters. It's last distinguished
occupant was the English Attorney Gem
eral. who lived there during the British
occupancy of st. Augustine. For many
years Santa Fe claimed to be the oldest
/ city. but it has been definitely established
that ST. Augustine was founded some 30
years before the first white man set foot
on Santa Fe soil

The State Election.

(Banger Commercially.
The practically complete returns
from the state election of Monday
show that the state has returned to
the control OF the Republican party.
Hon. William T. Haines of Waterville
is elected to the governorship, receiv-
ing little more than $500 votes more
than Governor Plaisted, While the next
legislature will be Republican by a
small margin. In the lower branch
the parties will be very even in num-
bers while the state senate will be
strongly Republican.
+ This will insure the election of Hon.
Edwin c. Burleigh of Augusta, as
United States senator in place of Hon.
Obadiah Gardner. OF the congress
men the Republicans have elected
three. Hon. Asher Kinds in the First
district, Hon. Forrest Goodwin in the
Third and Hon. Frank +. Guernsey in
the Fourth. Congressman McGillicud
dy is reelected in the Second district
by a reduced plurality.
The campaign has in many ways
been a peculiar one. Both parties
were confident of success. The Re-
puplicans made great efforts in the
devoted themselves more particularly
to the large places. The early returns
noted large Republican gains from the
smaller communities and when it was
seen shat the Democratic vote in the
cities was not keeping up to tho very
large lilajorities of two years ago, the
result was foreshadowed. Roughly
speaking the vote in the state at
large shows an average. Republican
gain Of about nine per cent. over the
vote of 1910 and a similar per cent. of
loss in the Democratic vote.
In the campaign the Republican
speakers devoted themselves particu-
la,ly to the tariff and to state issues.
The Democratic orators banked large
ly on arousing disaffection between the
two branches of the Republican party
but their hopes in this regard were
not realized as the Republicans did not
allow differences of opinion regarding
presidential candidates to enter into
tho state campaign. Thus in the coun-
ty of AroostooS the Republican ticket
kaG great majority. although it had
been generally stated that the Repub-
lean vote would show a falling off In
that county.
The largest ma ority received by a
Republican candidate for Congress was
in the Fourth District where Congress
man Guernsey won very deeisively
over Mr.. Mullen The vote in the Dis
triet as complied Tuesday noon with
81 small places missing was Guernsey
49, 1873; Mullen, 1913.

Maine a Disgrace to Boston,

Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston has paid
another visit to Maine, recently, and
this time he voices his sentiments in
a manner not wholly pleasing to the
members of his party in the Pine Tree
State. But the funniest part OF it all
is his declaration that Maine is a
disgrace to Boston" This was not
because of the political overturn but
because "liquor is sold in the most
open manner and with the cognizance
OF the sheriffs and police chiefs"
Forgetting Sweet Adeline" for tbs
moment, Mayor Fitzgerald INDUCED il
a rare outburst of Indignation against
the methods of notification by his
Democratic brethren in Maine. He is
quoted by the Boston Post Demo
cratte) as follows:

They Are Bad Losers.

Democratic officials and political en-
gineers are poor losers. That is evi
dent 1t was manifest last year in tn
Eyes" and mo" vote. When the
thought they had won by the narrow
est margin they were jubilant and de
fant. When they found they had los
by several hundred they began Il
squirm and seek q way to defeat tn
law and the facts. This lack of sports
manlike spirit hurt them among thei
friends. The present display of peev
ishness and desperate intent to defea
every part of the vote possible, is bu
proving the verdict of the people wh'
cast the vote.
The childish claim of certain bat
losers that the imperfect ballots were
all east by Democrats and ought tC
have been counted, is comment suific-
lent for the public.
1t is an imputation against Demo
cratic ballot clerks. registration ofiic-
ials and others. Why should the pre-
pondetanee of thrown out ballots nee
essarily be Democratic ballots"
Governor Plaisted seems to have
accepted defeat in the real spirit Of
politics and sportsmanship, but we
can hardly say as much of some oil
the smaller calibered men who think
they are engineering the Democratic
party.
The people of Maine are watching
this apparent but hesitating determi-
nation to attempt some desperate
scheme to get possession of the House
of Representatives. The older gene
rations are suspicious, for they re-
member 1S79-and the record for dis
regard of law by certain party lead
ers in recent months is not inspiring.
It is possible for Democracy to lower
itself even further in the estimation
of Maine and New England.
The apparent purpose of Democrat
ic leaders in almost constant secret
conference and the threats which are
allowed to creep out. show marked con-
trast to the course of the Republicans,
80 years ago. AT that time, Harris Nj.
Plaisted, father of the present Cover
nor, was promptly seated, on the mar
row margin of a plurality of 1853 votes
in the totals from the entire State.
1t is easy to understand how small
must have been the plurality in some
to overturn the verdict as it Fame
from the various towns and cities. The
contrast is a matter for the fair
minded to consider.

Tribute to the Onion.

Kill the onion and you leave gap IN
the universe. XIII anything else and
there is a substitute The potato is akin
to the cereals, squash and cabbage and
turnips and caulihower are of the same
family, beans are elongated peas, the
lemon is a pessimistic orange, beef rein
carnated grass, watermelons just the
survivor of very fit cucumber, and so
on But the onion is sui generis; alone,
unique, triumphant. 1t is special crea-
ton to tempt the palate OF a weary
world. 1t proves the futility of man
wisdom. He might have guessed at
everything else under the sun, but he
would have never guessed an onion. Sci
ence may deduce a new star before II
becomes visible, or radium before its dis
covery, but this succulent, fragrant,
starry, vegetable would have gone unin-
vented forever, had not its own insinuat-
ing, yet not bashful qualities forced
themselves into tear brimmed eyes and
Ilinquescent anticipatory lips. With what
a mixture of gratitude and awe should
we view the spectacle of nature turning
her energies to the transmitting OF mere
day into a vegetable with an artistic
temperament Richmond Times-Dis-

inevitable. Gov. Plasted made the
mistake of his life when, in 1911. he
declined the advice of his Republican
friends and certain Democratic lead
ers and refused to make Maine dry as
a covered bridge. Had he done so, pro-
Tossing as he did, no faith in prohibi-
ton as a public policy but aetuated
by'a sense of official duty to the en-
forcement of a law, obnoxious to him
self. he would have been reelected,
Monday, Sept. 9, 1912, by $4,000. Had
he. by force of arms, as it were. com
spelled recalcitrant sheriffs to the per-
Torrance of their duty he would. to-
day, have been leader. Had he re-
garded his promises, his official cath
and the plain duty of Governor, he
would have been, today national fig
ure instead of a political derelict.
The result of Monday speaks for this
Maine is a law-abiding State. She
demands and will have obedience to
law. Public officials who openly dis
regard official oaths, must be brought
to book. Andresceggin county and es-
pecidlly the city of Lewiston, are in
mind as we write these words. Ger
tain county and city officials have
been running a course of insolent de-
fiance to law. With contemptuous dis
regard of the courts, they have gone
on either brazenly Indifferent or with
sneering reioinder to the appeals of
home and church. Unmoved, they have
seen the streets fill with drunken loaf
ers, insolent to the passersby, impor-
tuning the wayfarer for money and a
menace 70 the peaceful citizen. Do
those Democratic officials then Won
der at the revolt? Do they wonder
that Democrats of lifelong devotion
to the party, can no longer stand for
this sort of thing? Do they suppose
that Maine is going to permit this to
continue?
Mondays election said mo" Two
years ago at about this time, the De-
moeracy of Maine had it's warning.
Congressman McGillicuddy in an adj
dress in Auburn. told his hearers that
the Democratic party in Maine had
won, in 1910. because the people be-
lieved it would make good and that
in order to be returned, two years
thence. it must be honest to that. pur-
pose. The result in Maine is the proof
of his political foresight. The only re-
greet ID that the people of Androscog-
gin county were not in condition te
clean house completely and to send
forth into the limbos those executive
and other officials who by non-feas-
ance of duty have made this county
and the city of Lewiston a shame and
a rebuke.
Governor-elect Haines has the pow
err and the opportunity to do what
Plaisted failed to do. Let him enforce
the prohibitory law. Let him put it to
the absolute test in every county by
the use of every agency at his com
mand. And whatever the result in two
years. he will command the respect
and the esteem of every man, woman
and child in Maine.

The Result in Maine.

IN. L. ITlDuHe.)
One certain conclusion can be drawn
from the vote in Maine, namely, that
there is to be no Democratic landslide
this year. The country is not anxious
to turn to the Democratic party for
leadership in national affairs. 1t could
hardly be expected to welcome Demo-
cratic control of the executive and
legislative departments, in view of it's
experience with the tricky and ire
sponsible performances of the present
Democratic majority in the House of
Representatives. The voters of Maine
rid themselves of Democratic Sen
ator and one of the States two Demo-
cratic Representatives. They replaced
Democratic Legislature with a Re
publican Legislature and. a Democratic
administration with a Republican adj
ministration.
The split-up of the Republican party
on national issues did not enable the
Democrats to retain their grip on
Maine. Their vote this year fell
nearly seven thousand below their vote
| in 1910. Democratic performance has
therefore not only failed to make new
converts but even driven away former
supporters. Names action indicates
| that if Mr.. Wilson should carry Maine
| in November he would carry it as the
candidate of a minority party. II he
should be elected President he would
owe his success to a division in the
Republican ranks, not to any general
demand by the country for his services
as a leader He would be President
| by sufferance, seated against the
wishes of a considerable majority OF
| the nation.
The Democratic managers have been
taken aback by the outcome of the
| Maine campaign. They had been an
| ticipating a Democratic ground swell
and had not realized that Mr.. wilson
evasive and hedging attitude since his
nomination had been steadily weak
ening him. He is no longer Hoatlne
| with the tide. and We're he forced to
depend for election on his own per-
sonality and efforts and on the present
normal strength of the Democratic
| PARTY he would probably be beaten as
| decisively as Alton b. Parker was ir
1904. If he wins it will be only be-
cause Republican discussions have III
orally thrust him into office.
I The result OF the MdiIe eiSetioh a.
a startling commentary on the futliitN
and superhuousness of the third part!

| Maine can still unite to recaptur'
their State government, what excuse II
there for a Gripping division in tn
field of national politics? There ar
no irreconcilable differences between
Taft supporters and Roosevelt sup
porters. The Maine election makes
short work of the pretension that tn'
