Maine and President Wilson.

The administration and the Dem
ocratic majority in Congress should
be cheered and comforted greatly by
the result of the election in the only
State voting before November. The
President in particular is warranted
in regarding the Democratic victory
as direct vote of confidence.
Notwithstanding the return of many
thousands of Progressives to the reg
ular Republican ranks the Wilson
Democrats carried the State for Gov
ernor and reelected by a greatly in
creased majority the only Maine Con-
gresham of the Presidents party
The result in the second district is
especially significant when the cir
cumstances are considered. This is
the stanch old Republican territory
represented for many years by Mel
SON Dingley, Jr., and later by Chas
E. Littlefeld. With the manufactur.
ing interests of Lewiston and the
shipbuilding interests of Battle, the
second district seemed perhaps tn,
most likely plac in the union where
the protectionists reaction would be
gin and the priest would be earlies
heard against much that the sixty
third congress has done to the tariff
and in the way of actual or proposed
Legislation affecting shipbuilding. Mr
McGillicuddy's seat was contested
this year by Harold M. Sewall, Re
publican of exceptional ability an,
prestige. No candidate could hav
put the case more effectively to tn
voters from the viewpoint of thes
local interests; yet, against all tn
apparent logic of the situation, Nh
McGillicuddy's plurality of 1881 il
1912 was increased fourfold.-Ney

A QUESTION.

Is life but a few fieeting hours?
A bit of pleasure and pain
A mingling of tears and flowers;
Is there no more to gain?
Is the measure of life's attainment
OF what the world calls fame?
Or can feel contentment
Tho loser in life's game?

The last Cleveland administration,
with it's inherited panic, has so long
been the chief stock in trade of Re-
publican spell binders, that it's hoary
platitudes cling to their vocal chords
like wool to the teeth of sheep kill
ing mongrel. Tazewell voters have
heard them from foghorn to siren,
without variation in substan ce-in
Dave Bailey's rancous defamation in
1896, all the way to Rev. Carter's ov-
erdone rhetoric in 1914. Grover Cleve-
land and Woodrow Wilson belong to
different schools of craftsmanship;
the former faced different conditions
and lived in other times. President
Wilson is leader in new political
dispensation, which has less in COM
mon with the Cleveland policies than
the party to which Mr.. Slemp belongs.
Comparison of the Cleveland panic
with the bogus "Wilson panic" is
transparent knavery.
The "Wilson panic" holds the worlds
record in the matter of duration. 1t
began at eight o'clock sharp last Sat
urday evening and lasted two hours
and a half. 1t would probably have
cast its dark shadow on hundred
quaking Republicans couple of hours
longer, had not the Rev. Carter been
winded.
