of the Maine Election
" As Cleaned From Various Sources

discouraging, when we consider the figures. me
democratic candidate cam within a hundred of the
vote cast for president last fall. This is a remarkably
good showing, when we consider that it was a special
election. The republican victory was due primarily
to the return of a large number of progressives to
the republican party. At least. the republican vote
gained something over 5000 and the progressives lost
that much, as compared with the returns last fall.
The democratic candidate, Mr.. Pattangall, In an
interview this morning, refers to some OBJECTIONS in
the party. There were two or three local influences
which tended to reduce our vote, but all things con.
sidered, it seems to me the democratic vote was as
large as could be reasonably expected and the result
certainly cannot be construed as disappearing OF the
presidents administration or policy

ton, if they shall be inclined to jubilate over the
result Of the election in the Third congressional dis
trict of Maine. On it's face that result might seem to
be a rebuke to the tariff procedure of the Wilson
administrations a matter of fact, 1t undoubtedly IS
and the beneiciaries of protection will make the
most of it. But there are several facts to be taken
into consideration.
- OF all sections of the country New England has
concerned itself most deeply in the tariff schedules
and Maine has been particularly %agitated: 1t is
practically traditional up there that high tariff means
steady work in the textile factories and shoe shops,
and with high wages. No move has been neglected,
since the Underwood bill has been under discussion,
to brighten and dismay the employees of these indus
tries with pictures of the .desolation that will follow
the passage of that measure. The interests have
moved with desperate alertness and fear has pre-
vailed over hope in the minds of the Maine voters.
The lamentations of Jeremiah sound like a merry
%roundelay compared with the prospect of want and
suffering sure, toatrail. a tariff reduction, according t"
the protected industries of the remote Northeast, and
the newspapers supporting their view. 1t is small
wonder that the Third district of Maine should be
influenced by the threat of evil rather than by the
promise of good. '
Both sides to the tariff question made strenuous
efforts to capture this election, for the moral efech
The administration appreciated the value of repeating
the result of last fall and its best oratorical repre-
s%entatives, led by Secretary Bryan, stumped the
district. Therefore, if the republican opposition to
tariff reduction is inclined to proclaim a signal vic
tory the face of the situation will be their warrant.
Wilson carried the district, last fall, by a good
plurality, but his vote failed to reach the combined
total Of the vote for Roosevelt and Taft. Yesterday
the Wilson vote was practically intact, the republican
vote doubling and the progressive strength suffering
accordingly. Various auguries will be drawn from
the showing, but the student of political conditions
will conclude that the result was neither unnatural
nor unexpected.

Surely Nathaniel Hawthorne was
neither insincere nor thinking of pos
terity when he finished one of his love
letters with this poetic conceit, ex-
pressed in his best prose style:
when we shall be endowed with
spiritual bodies 1 think they will be so
that we may send thoughts
and feelings any distance, in no time
at all, and transfuse them warm and
fresh into the consciousness of those
we love. Oh, what happiness 1t would
be at this moment If l could be con-
scious of some purer feeling. some more
delicate sentiment, some lovelier fam
tasy than could l be aware that you
were thinking through my mind and
feeling through my hearth Perhaps
you possess this power already"
This is true epistolary love- making
the sublimated essence of compliment
airy gallantry, addressed to Sophia Pea
body who later became Mrs. Natapiel
Hawthorne. Hawthorne had attained
some literary distinction when he met
the Peabody sisters, Elizabeth, the older
of the two, invited Hawthorne and his
sister to spend an evening with her at
her home in Salem. She was a friend
of the sister, but had never met the
author and was anxious to know what
character of man was the writer of
| The Gentle Boy" the reading of which
had given her so much pleasure.
When the Hawthrones called Eliza
beth was delighted with Nathaniel, and
tried to prevail upon her sister, Sophia
who was an invalid, to come down and
meet him. Sophia laughed. but refused
the invitation. Hawthorne was Sc
pleased with his visit that he promised
to repeat it soon.
He did so, and this time "Sophia
came down and sat on the sofa in 2
simple white wrapper" Hawthorne was
charmed with her. and especially with
her low, sweet voice. Whenever after
this Mr. Hawthorne called at the house
he generally saw Sophia, and year
after their meeting he wrote: sophia

bosom, but was lent from heaven, to
show the possibilities of the human
soul"
