ROosevelt'S Electors
Win Another Round in
Fight to Hold Place

TOPEKA, Kan. Sept. THE Roose-
welt Presidential electors have won an
other round in the legal battle to get
them off the Republican ticket in Kan
sas.
Judge w. H. Sanborn, of the United
States circuit court of appeals, denied
the injunction asked by the supporters
of President Taft's candidacy to pro-
hibit the names of the eight Roosevelt
electors being placed on the Republican
ballot In the general election in Novem.
ber
The case was brought three week
ago. d. r. Hite, attorney for the Taft
followers, went to Red Oak. Iowa, and
obtained a temporary restraining order
from Judge Smith Mcpherson, acting
for Judge John c. Pollock. of Kansas
who was in the East on a vacation.
The injunction was asked for on be-
half Of thirteen Jewell county men. who
had signed the nomination petitions OF
eight Taft electors defeated in the re-
cent primary.
Judge Sanborn, in his opinion, said:
'Conceding the truth of all the aver
ments of the bill. the application for the
injunction cannot be granted because
the threatened wrongful depriva-
ton Of a citizen of his rights to vote
under the Constitution of the United
States by election officials or others
presents no cause of action in equity
for an injunction to prevent 1t. The
remedy is at law and not by an in
junction in equity"

Local supporters OF the Progressive

A plan for the proposed campaign in

La Toilette Is Planning
Attack on Roosevelt

Although Senator Robert NJ La Fol-
lette refused to discuss Colonel Roose-
velt's declaration that unless La Fol-
lette gets in line for the Progressive
party he will stamp himself a reac-
tionary of the deepest dye" it became
known today that the Senator Is to
contribute to the anti-Roosevelt litera-
ture of the Presidential campaign some
of the stoutest verbal attacks that T.
r. will encounter between now and
election day.
The Senator, besides refusing to en-
gage in a controversy today with the
colonel, also refused to discuss his
been reports that he is to make a tour
Of Wisconsin and other Western States
speaking against Roosevelt and in be-
half of Republican progressive ideas
and candidates, but the Senator said
today that he would not announce
these for some time to come. He is
to remain in Washington for another
week and perhaps longer before taking
the stump.
His autobiography, on which he is
now working and which Is believed to
be nearing completion, may contain, 1t
is said, some sharp attacks on Roosevelt.
Politicians here are eagerly awaiting a
chance to read It, for they have heard
that 1t will outdo in vtgor of expression
and pointedness of facts anything which
will be turned loose by the Tart mana
gers.
La Toilette has fully regained his
health, which was not OF the best sew
eral months ago, and is In good trim,

and his cohorts sit up and take notice,

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 1.-The feel

voice precipitated the name of Straus

MAINE ELECTION IS
CLAIMED BY BOTH
POLITICAL PARTIES
Progressives of State Have
Not Entered Race and May
Vote for Republicans.

PORTLAND, Me, Sept. IA large
question mark symbolizes the political
situation in Maine at the close of the
State campaign today. Both Democrats
and Republicans are predicting victory
at the polls on Monday, when the vot-
ers will name their choice for a United
States Senator and elect a governor,
Representatives in Congress. both
branches Of the legislature and county
officials.
The Democrats are now in power, and
have the machinery Of government at
their command. They realize that,
should they be turned down by the
voters as incompetent and unsatisfac-
tory, 1t would likely be years before
they could return to power. This Is not
all they are fighting for. however. for
in November comes the national cleo
ton, and the Democratic party in Maine
feels certain that the winning of the
State next Monday will. without doubt,
mean that they will land the six cleo
toral votes Of the Pine Tree State for
Wilson in November.
The election of 1. Democratic governor
and legislature resulted in the prohibi-
| tory law being resubmitted to the peo-
pie, and 1t was reaffirmed year ago
| by small majority. This showed con-
| clusively that the prohibition sentiment
throughout the State. which has always
| been a great asset of the Republicans,
! has materially weakened. The liquor
| question has been largely eliminated as
| an issue in the present campaign, al
though the Democrats promise. II re-
| turned to power, to give the voters an
| opportunity to pass upon a constitu-
tional amendment, which will give local
option to the cities and large towns.
Opinion differs as to the effect that
the advent of the Progressive party will
have on the result of the election. The
! Progressives have not put a State tic
ket in the field and this has led the old
| party to believe that theI Progressives
as a whole will support the regular Re-
publican nominees.
The Republican candidate for governor
| is William T. Haines of Waterville, a
former attorney general of Maine. He
is opposed by Governor Frederick w
Plaisted. a Democrat. The contest for
United States Senator is between Edwin
| c. Burleigh who was a Representative
in Congress for many years, and the
present Democratic Senator, Obadiah
Gardner, who was named last spring tc
| succeed William P. Frye.
