ago No, Mr.. Pattangal held re-
markedly we'll to that vote, consid-
ering the way In which the Demo-
cratic Administration and Congress
have been treating Maine industries.
and his defeat is not due to Demo-
cratic detection but 20 the passing
of the Bull Moose detection from the
Republican party and the return or
Republicans to the party STANDARD.

some members of that party into so
