umn, but the thing that really brought
them together in THIS election was the
Republican support of 5i-hour labor
law in factories. proposed for the protec-
ton of child labor.
This WAS an important issue and big
factor in favor of the Republican candi'
dates and should not be kept from you IN
helping you to reach your OWN unbiased
conclusion.
The Republican side Of the argument
may have just cause for being Joyful, IN
the face of a Republican plurality OF 49,
GOO for Maine in a presidential year IN
asmuch as Wilson received plurality IN
1912.
The Democrats came right back, too
IN 1914 and elected their candidate for
governor by SIT. the Progressive can

Well, the Figures Got In
From Maine-YOu Can Help
Yourself to the Mustard

When Maine votes, Republican news
papers take the returns and analyze them
for consoling feature for their Republi-
can readers,
When Maine votes, Democratic news
papers take the returns and analyze them
for some single straw of hope for their
Democratic readers.
1t is an old political theory that "as
Maine goes, so goes the country.
Maine. voted Monday.
The Republican candidate for governor
was elected by plurality of something
like $4,000.
Both Republican and Democratic lead
ers and Republican and Democratic news
papers profess to be highly elated over
this result.
To-wit:
The Maine election shows that the people Of
this country want the Democrats out and the
Republicans in. The vote is along party lines.
The Republicans and Progressiyes are united 10
defeat the Wilson administration.
The Republicans carry Maine by over $4,000
and elect governor two United States sena
tors and all four congressman. This is clean
sweep.-Herbert Parsons. New York member Of
the Republican national committee.
The result in Maine indicates a sweeping
Democratic victory In November We have
never claimed we would win in Maine, because
I realized that TO carry such a rock-ribbed Re-
publican stronghold In presidential year was
practically impossible.
We have materially reduced the large Repub
lican majority always obtained on national is
sues in that state, and that insures the election
OF President Wilson in November BY an impress
siye majority.-yance Mccormick. Democratic
national chairman.
Neither Democrats Republicans have
much TO brag about in the results Of the Maine
election. II was inevitable that Maine should go
Republican. The Republican majority is any.
thing but decisive. II Maine is barometer Of the
national election the national election is still
the knees OF the gods.-New York World Demo
cratc).
The early returns from Maine indicate de-
cisive Republican victory. Any plurality the
state ticket exceeding 10000 must be considered
ms reviving the old traditions Of Republican
supremacy in Maine--New York Tribune (Re-
publican).
