knows on what the hope is based-that
he will be elected Governor of Maine, a
most strenuous undertaking. Mr.. Gard
ner is finding that he is being called
upon to explain many things.
He has been asked to tell why he did
certain things when in the Legislature,
he has held no public office, though he
was a candidate for election as mem
Der of the Governors council from
Penobscot county. Now the Lewiston
Sun, one of the fairest journals in the
State of Maine, has come forth and has
asked Mr.. Gardner few things. Here
is what the Sun has to say and 1t puts
the matters very, very clearly:
But. Mr.. Gardner, don't hurt our
feelings so, talking about the unfairness
of newspapers.
'The Sun wants to tell columns of
what you say.
Remember you are going to set forth
the beauty and necessity of recall judi
'ciaI decisions. You can't do 1t.
1.-The Sun challenges you to take all
reasonable space in its columns to show
of Maine that Maine ought to have re-
call of judicial decisions. You can't do it,
THAT plank, recall of judicial decis-
ions. that plank is the one distinctive
feature of your state ISSUE and you
can't make good on it,
IF you ignore it, you deserve to be
beaten-deserve to be distanced."
This puts the question right up to
Mr.. Gardner; he must show what he
knows about the laws of Maine. He
will have to drop his puerile discussion
of imaginary oppression of the dear
pee-puf' by the Republican party and
get down to hard pan.
Mr. Gardner will probably answer
the challenge of the Sun. He has &C

With the prices of wheat and flour

have expressed the belief that we
will again see the prices which pre-

The price of flour received another

morning some dealers were asking
$3.50 per barrel for all round flour and
$3.50 for bread flour. One dealer said
