BERT FERNALD HAS
MADE announcement
OF HIS CANDIDACY

Poland, Me-, June 27.-Former Gov.
Bert NJ. Fernald today announced that he
will be a candidate for the Republican
nomination for the unexpired term of the
late United States Senator Edwin C. Bur-
leigh at the special primary to be held
next month.
Mr. Fernald was a close second in the
three-sideu contest last week for the NOM
ination for the full term, in which Fred
erick Hale of Portland came off victor.
Ex-Governor Fernald gave out the fol-
lowing letter:
To the Republicans of Maine:
1 herewith announce my candidacy In
the Republican primaries to fill the unex-
pired term Of the late U. S. Senator Bur
leigh.
have delayed my announcement until
l was reasonably assured that there was
a wish on the part of a considerable body
of Republicans voters that I be candl-
date for this position. I have just con-
Guided a long and arduous campaign in
the Republican primary for the regular
term Of the United States senator. In
which ran a close second to the success
full candidate and in which ! led the
third candidate by nearly 1000 votes. The
expressed wish Of those who supported
me in that campaign and of a great many
others who did not support me strength
ems me In the conclusion that my candi-
dacy will again be acceptable to the Re.
publican party of this State. Many have
expressed the desire that one of the nom
inees of the party in the coming election
for United States senator be business
man and this reason also largely leads me
to make this canvass.
The admirable selection Of Republican
standard bearers in the Republican ma
tional convention at Chicago. which unites
all who are opposed to the platform and
principles of the Democrat party in State
and nation, inspires confidence in the Re-
publican party Of Maine and renews hope
and courage Of every true American. With
the utmost confidence in the fairness and
good Judgment of the Republicans o,
Maine, and pledging my cordial accept
ance Of the verdict. I enter the primary
for the choice of a nominee for the Unit
ed States Senate.
BERT NJ. FERNALD.

POLITICAL GOSSIP
CALLED FORTH BY
new COMPLICATIONS

The appearance Of Congressmar
Guernsey in the senatorial contest has
given new impetus to the guessers and
the political prognosticators. Some
conclusions are easily reached and arc
interesting. One Of these heard from
the moment the WASHINGTON dispatch
from Congressman Guernsey was made
puollc, was that Colonel Parkhurst
would be the candidate (perhaps un-
opposed) for the Fourth District Re-
publican nomination for a seat in Con-
eress. one we'll posted gentleman
VINO SAYS little but follows CLOSELY the
trehd OF political affairs, said:
Parkhurst is the logical candidate
he may not consider it, but to NV
mind his candidacy would iron out a
lot of Eastern Maine conditions In
the first place, he is a strong man or
Congressional size and the Republi-
cans OF Maine owe him much. He
would unite Aroostock, Penobscot and
flscataquis and soothe Penobscot's
troubled waters. Piscataquis has had
congressman for eight years. Aroos-
took had one before that, and now has
candidate for governor and a candi-
Gate fighting for the nomination to the
U. S. Senate.
am not political prophet and
would not attempt to name the peo-
pies choice between Fernald, Guern-
sey and Hersey, but for Guernsey's
seat 1t is manifestly the party's duty
to honor Col. Parkhurst'
Governor" Fernald's friends were
jubilant. Tuesday afternoon, in the
prospect of a divided northern Maine
vote for Senatorial candidate. Nc
one interviewed seemed to take ths
possible candidacy of Rear Admiral
Peary seriously. The general conclu.
sion was that the balance Of the DO.
litical year is to be exceedingly lively

GUERNSEY WOULD
Be THE NOMINEE
FOR U. S. SENATE
Washington, D. c.,

Washington, D. c.. June 26.
Kennebcc Journal, Augusta, Me.
To the Republican voters of Maine:
Having served for nearly eight
years the Fourth Congressional dis
trict and our State in the National
House of Representatives. would like
to serve the people Of Maine in the
upper branch Of Congress by being
chosen to fill the vacancy that now
exists, not to satisfy personal am
bition but to serve important and ben
ef1cial results for our State that I be-
lieve can be secured through the
position. and for these reasons I will
be a candidate for the Republican
nomination for United States Senator
in the special State primary which will
soon be held. I shall make a vigorous
campaign throughout the State, but
owing to the very short time that will
probably be allowed I must rely on
my friends and supporters to the limit
THAT my services in the National
House of Representatives during the
past eight years have met with ap-
proval l believe is shown by the ex-
ceptionaly large vote I have always
received. Considering the close polit-
ical situation in our State for some
years past in the last election l re-
ceived the largest plurality given
any Republican candidate In Maine
in that election, between 2700 and $500.
have six times been nominated for
Congress by the Republican party, the
last five times unanimously. have
served in five Congresses and II ses-
sions of the National House of Repre-
mittee on banking and currency dur
ing the preparation and passage Of the
federal reserve banking act. / became
familiar with such legislation Of great
importance to the business and farm
ing interests Of the country for some
time to come.
THE positions I have taken in the
House Of Representatives in favor Of
strong and immediate measures for
National defense. both as to the army
and navy, are matters Of record. My
position on Canadian reciprocity,
tariff and other matters Of import
ance to our State are well known.
1.-The next Republican Congress will
be called upon to restore q protective
tariff to the country, a return to which
consider is Of the utmost Importance
to every man and every industry in
Maine. The knowledge Of tariff mat
tiers I have acquired through men,
bership in Congress during. two revis-
ions Of the tariff can only be secured,
of necessity. through years Of service.
