THE MAINE ELECTION.

Men who are studying the game Of
national politics are watching the
election returns today from Maine.
Republicans and democrats alike are
looking in that direction. It is not
known how the progressive vote will
go. If one-fourth of that vote goes to
the democratic ticket, It means the
election of Woodrow Wilson. 1t is
probable in the state election that
something can be told of the trend
that vote has for the November cleo
tion.
In 1896 Maine had republican
plurality of 1911; in 1900 2S,613; in
1901, 3G,SO7, in 1908, 3O5Si; in 1912
the TaftRooseyelt majority was 49,,
925, but Wilson carried the state with
plurality over Roosevelt Of 2,620
The popular vote in that state was:
Wilson 51,113, Roosevelt iS,i93, Taft
26,5i5.
Maine has always been solid re-
publican state until Roosevelt ran on
the progressive ticket and the re-
publican party split.
Maine is expected to 20 republican
today. The forecasts by democrats
say that the vote cannot be taken as
vane to point toward the national
election in November, while the re
publicans assert that as Maine goes
so the nation will go, The assertions
indicate that the republicans think
they will carry the state and the
democrats do not hope to.
There are so many new features in
this campaign that the wisest poll
tician cannot make forecast that

Ol9. There was falling off of more
than 100, 600 votes while the national
gain entitled the party to 10000
more. SO there was at least a quar-
ter of a million democrats who coted
for Roosevelt.
In the selection of candidates the
democrats have the advantage. VII.
son is a better speaker, he is more
in harmony with the people, if he
does not possess a more judicial mind
he thinks more as the people do, He
possesses personal magnetism, he
has a keen insight into public ques-
tions, he can enthuse a crowd, he does
not make utterances that drive votes
away from the party he has the solid
support of democracy and many re
publicans and progressiyes and first
voters viii cast their ballots for him.
It is universal opinion of republi-
cans that had the election been held
in July Hughes would have won, but
if it were held now Wilson would
win Their only hope is that the
forcing through congress of the S-hour
law will react and make Wilson un-
popular
The battle ground this year will be
in New York, New Jersey Indiana,
Wisconsin, Missouri Ohio and Hi
nois. one of the dangers to democ-
racy in states like Illinois and lndi-
ana is the sending there Of speakers
who will villify the republican party
and arouse the party pride and preju-
dices of those inclined to support
Wilson back into the republican
ranks. Wilson has done enough good
things and prevented enough bad
things to keep campaign orators busy
without mentioning Hughes or the
republican party.

Many Women Employed.

Vienna Sept 9.-More than 5000
women are now employed in the mu-
nicipal street car service of Vienna.
OF the 1900 male employees before
the war 1O,500 have gone into the
field. The war has completely chang
ed the street-car service which now
is in operation nearly twenty four
hours a day, carrying not only ordi-
nary passengers but at night hauling
coal and merchandise There are no
more motor cabs or motor-trucks or
lorries, and horses are very scarce.
Consequently the street railways
have become practically the only
means of transportation.
Most of the women employees are
acting as conductors but great efforts
are being made to get permission
from the Ministery of Railways for
them to act as motor drivers. The
grades in Vienna are in places quite
steep, and require great strength for
using brakes, so that the authorities
hitherto have hesitated to sanction
the employment of women for this
work. Unless, however, the military
commanders will release a sufficient
number of motormen from the army
to carry on the car service the eX-
pertinent with women drivers will
have to be made, whether dangerous
or not.

HILLS ice CAVE
ICE FORMS In CAVE In SUMNER,
But DISAPPEARS IN WINTER
CHEMICAL ACTION.

Edgemont, Sept. 30.-A natural
wonder of the Black Hills, in the
form of an ice cave. is to be devel-
oped and made an attraction for
tourists. The ice cave is situated at
E~nglewood and is one of the few
natural wonders of its kind in the
world. AS a unique feature among
the natural attractions of the Black
Hills it ranks with Wind cave and
with Crystal v and in some re-
spects is even more wonderful than
either of these. The cav has devel-
oped peculiar features. which make
it a most mystifying proposition.
Some ten or eleven years ago, what
now is the ice cave was run as a
tunnel by the late Harvey Shelter,
and had been pushed about ninety
feet when work was abandoned, as
no satisfactory mineral showing was
encountered. The fact that it had
the power Of producing ice even dur
ing the hottest summer weather was
not discovered until later. In the
hottest months of the year ice forms
in the face of the tunnel, sometimes
~ "a utPth VI AtNtp Al q ~
markable feature is that during cold
weather the ice disappears. On the
surface of the ground above the face
of the tunnel is a spot from which
the heaviest snow is melted in win
ter and green grass is always found
there, in all seasons of the year.
The formation of the ice is believed
to be due to the presence OF certain
chemicals in the solutions which
rrickle through the rocks, which,
coming in contact with currents of
air, cause a lowering temperature.
Why the ice should disappear in win
ter is not so easily explained. unless
it is that the production of a low
temperature, under the circum-
stances, requires the presence of
warm air currents, in conjunction
with the chemicals contained in the
solutions.

SUFFRAGAN BISHOP


Aberdeen. Sept. 30.-Episcopa
lians of Aberdeen are taking a keen
interest in the general convention of
the church to be held in st. Louis be
ginning October IL. Not only will
the convention choose a ~suceessor TO
the late Bishop Biller. of South Da-
kota, but an effort will be made to
pass a providing for a suf-
fragan bishop in this state. In the
event a suffragan bishop is allowed
in missionary d%ioceses, il is more
than likely, said men in touch with
the affairs of the church, that Rev.
Edward Ashley, of Aberdeen, would
be chosen for the new post.
Rev. j. w. Hyslop. rector of St.
Marks, said that he personally would
not be inclined to accept a b%ishopric
even if the opportunity arose. Mr..
Hyslop is the senior prelate in the
white parishes of the state, and if Il
South Dakotan We're considered as a
successor TO Bishop Biller, ii was
pointed out that he would be a nat
ural choice. The probabilities are,
however, that a man from outside
the state will be chosen.
The canon providing for a suffra-
gan bishop in the missionary dioceses
is receiving a good deal of support.
The chances of its passage, however,
are problematical.
A suffragan bishop is in reality as
sistant to the bishop, doing assigned
work.
