Fairbanks Statement

Before leaving the city, he gave out
the following as a result of his visit
to the State during the present cam
paign
Bangor Sept II, 1914.
TO the Republicans of Maine:
The debate is about closed and the
day for decisive action is near at
hand. Next Monday will determine
whether the Republican or Democrat
ie candidates win, whether Republi-
can policies are approved and Dem
ocratic principles are refuted. If Re-
publicans do their full duty, there is
no doubt whatever that they will win
handsomely for good laws and good
government.
The Republicans of the State have
done valiant and splendid service in
many a hard fought contest in the
past; but never, or at least rarely
have they had the opportunity to rem
der the State and nation a greater
service than now To them falls the
privilege and responsibility of open
ing the contest in the preliminary
skirmish of the preliminary political
battle of this year-a battle which is
in a very real sense the first engage
ment of the great presidential contest
of two years hence. The country
awaits your vote next Monday will
unusual anxiety for it will have a
profound influence in every state in
the Union. Republicans everywhere
are eager to know what their breth-
eren in Maine will do. If she pro-
claims to the world, as I firmly be-
lieve she viii. that she is true to ths
principles and cause of the Repub-
lican party; that she has unshaker
faith in its constructive and progress
sive faculty: in its ability to promote
our common prosperity it will sen6
wave of enthusiasm throughout the
country and fill Republicans every
where with renewed determination tt
take the affairs of the government
out of the hands of the Democratic

PRESIDENT POINCARE
DENIES STATEMENT
BY GERMAN KAISER


Bordeaux aps; 11.-Mid-
night.-PresiGent sPoincare to-
day cabled President Wilson as
follows:
"Mr. President: I am in
formed that the German gov
ernmen. has sought to surprise
Your Excellency's good faith by
alleging that dum-dum bullets
are manufactured in the French
STATE Factory and used by our
soldiers. This calumny is but an
alidacious attempt to reverse
roles"
Germany has, since the be-
ginning of the war, used dunn
dunn bullets and violated daily
the law of nations. On August
1S and several times since, we
have had occasion to bring these
acts to the notice of Your Ex-
cellency and the Powers sigma
tories of The Hague Conven-
tion."

Complete Republican Victory
Indicated by State Canvass

Indications from canvass of many
sections of the State made by the Republi-
can State committee, point to complete
victory for the Republican party at the polls
on Monday. These returns show that Re-
publican county officials will be elected in
greater portions of the counties through
out the State.
Congressman Kinds, Peters and Guernsey will be
ed by increased puraties Hon. Harold NJ Sewa of Bath
will be elected succeed Mr. McGicuddy by plurality
of approximately 1000.
Governor Hanes will be reelected by plurality of $780,
The Legislature will have large Republican working
majority in both branches
These of a 313 out of $40 towns
tai vote of the November election of 1912.
The result of the canvass shows:
For William Haines 40,54O, for Oakley C. Curtis 3d.
313, for Halbert P. Gardner, SO59.
In November 1872 the 313 towns cities cast
the following For Taft 1915 for Wilson 2949S, for
Roosevelt 27705
comparison between the vote of 1912 the canvass
shows the following gains and osses Republican $50 per
cent Democrats 13 cent? Progressive loss n per cent
Accepting the fact that the percentage of loss gains
in the 2O7 towns and cities not reported will be
ratio the 313 canvassed, it is fair assumption
because the towns from which returns have
fair representative of all sections of the State
final vote Monday, September Ia, would be as follows
Hanes 66,362, Curtis $685. Gardner A1O7 Total 1885,
226. Haines' plurality S605.

Not a Progressive Congressman
To Be Elected in the Country
This Fall-What He Says of
Senator Burleigh and the Men
Who Have Come to Maine at
His Request-Burleigh Only
Maine Man in Congress at the
Present Time

Washington, d. c., Sept. 11.-(Spe-
ciaD.-Chairman Frank p Woods of
the Republican Congressional commits
tee commented today upon the cam
paign just closing in Maine. "Prima-
ries throughout the country said he,
demonstrated that no Bull Moose
candidates will be elected to Congress
this autumn. In a number of states
thefr vote has been so light that they
have gone out of existence as party.
Therefore the people of Maine who
believe in the enactment of legislation
those in foreign countries, realizing
this. will undoubtedly vote unitedly for
the Republican candidates.
II have followed the contest in
Maine with great interest, continued
Chairman Woods. II am certain Maine
Republicans will give a good account
of themselves next Monday.
Senator Edwin C. Burleigh has
been in active cooperation with the
Congressional committee from the very
beginning. He has kept in close touch
with us. Indeed we have worked along
in the directions indicated by him. He
has kept steadfastly at his duties in
the Senate, but has been in frequent
conference here about the Maine cam
paign.
THE senator was especially success
full at getting speakers from here for
the Maine campaign. When the I'M
derwood resolution was passed, dock
ing our representatives absent from
the House, it made more difficult the
sending of speakers from our mem
bership. But Senator Burleigh took
hold with his usual earnestness and
soon had a good list of senatorial
