CHAMP CLARK AGAIN.

Hon. Champ Clark. speaker OF the
House OF Representatives.. has estab-
lished campaign headquarters In New
York TO promote his candidacy for the
Democratic presidential nomination.
For the last three years majority
of abe people Of tho country. Repub-
licans and Democrats alike. have been
unfeigncdly thankful that Mr.. Clark
was not nominated by tho Baltimore
convention and II Is not probable that
they will reverse their opinion within
thc next few months. Mr.. Clark in
nuguratcs his campaign by attacking
President Wilson and predicting the
"dire and inevitable defeat of the
Democratic party IL Wilson Is re-
nominated. We do not believe the
litersture being sent out In Mr.. Clark's
behalf will appeal to tho men who
elected Wilson nor will II make
friends for him amongst the independ-
ent voters and thinkers OF the United
States. Mr.. Clark failed of the nomi-
nation at Baltimore principally be-
cause OF the widespread belief that
he was and would remain n politician
who would inevitably shape his poll
cics TO please the organized politicians
rather than the mass OF tho people
This belief persists and Mr.. Clark
connot be nominated unless Tam

This Is the sort Of dope Mr.. Clark s
campaign manager is sending out in
his behalf:
CHAMP CLARK PRESIDENTIAL
CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE,
So 135, Broadway.

b
So 135, Broadway,
New York. Dec. 20. 1915.
Dear Sir:
In 1912 the Hon. Champ Clark
was robbed of the presidency through
the manipulatSons Of unscrupulous
politicians. Let 1916 repair the in
jury Of the 1912 Democratic Conven-
ton. AS a highly principled man OF
character President Wilson must be
constrained to refuse denomination by
reason of the 'one term which was in
corporated in tho platform on which
he came before the American voters
for their. suffrage as candidate for
the Office he now occupies.
Should President Wilson by ill-ad-
vised persuasions seek denomination
and secure 1t at the next Democratic
Convention Democracy is doomed to
dire and inevitable defeat-a defeat
which may keep the Democrats out
of national Office for generations.
Should the president seek renomina-
ton and secure 1t the Democratic
party will be split and broken up into
factions. some of whom will surely re-
volt and refuse to support his candi-
dacy.
Can the Democratic party win
out against the powerful factor which
will play important parts in the 1916
campaign? Yes. provided the ideal
and perfect candidate is nominated,
and the strongest and most powerful
national figure on the political horizon
today Is the Hon. Champ Clark.
"All factions of the Democratic
parry. will stand united under him: He
will como before the public with the
noble principles Of a one-term plank
against the sacriligious 'third-term
idea.' He has alienated no element of
our citizenship and he has the love
and admiration of the entire body
polite. His public expressions on
topics Of the day are inestimable po-
lftical assets. On the questions of ma
tionai preparedness his position Is pa
triotic and practical. His criticism for
a strict and real neutrality against
either Entente or alliance is admir-
able and satisfying to the most criti-
cal opponents of the administration
I'm short. the Hon. Champ Clark
represents the most worthy successor
Of Washington. Jefferson and Lincoln.
Dear friends. this Is Democracy
only opportunity for victory at the
polls during the coming election.
IF you are earnest IN your desire
~ seq enc DeinocratiC party trlun-
plant and to prevent the return OF
the reactionaiy Republican party we
invite you TO cooperate with the
Champ Clark League, and we solicit
your contribution and financial as
sistance. We will succeed in our pur-
pose. but you must help. Faithfully
yours,
Julius ]. Binder"

The bill creating the 14th judicia.
circuit Is being rushed through the
legislature In record time, despite the
opposition that has developed after it
got well under way. The suggestion
was made during the debate that the
creation of this new circuit is a step
toward the creation Of special circuits
for each Of the large and populouS
counties. as Columbia. Spartanburg
and Greenvillc. would probably
promptly demand the same considera-
ton that has been given Charleston.
There Is something in this suggestion,
but the ambition Of lawyers to sci
on the bench and serve as solicitors is
the force that sets in motion the leg
islative machinery for the creation OF
new circuits. If there was only some
power that could speed up the courts
for the prompt and systematic dis
patch of business there would be no
contested dockcts and no excuse TO,
the creation Of now circuits and new
jcbs.

maine STATE FAIR
0PENS|TS $50 ANNUAL SHOW,
WHICH PROMISES TO BE BIG ONE

Bangor, Me-, Aug. 22.-Tuesday fore
noon, when the 33rd annual Eastern
Maine State fair. the starting event
of the big fairs throughout this Sec
ton Of the country. opened, the con-
cession men were all at work prepar-
ing for a busy day. The grounds, I'M
like year ago, were in fine shape and
the work of erecting the tents went on
without a hitch.
Pres. A. 8. Field Of the association
was on the grounds and taking full
charge Of the arrangements.
The race track is in fine shape for the
four days Of racing, tile men having
been engaged in putting it in condi-
ton for the past few weeks.
There are several changes in the lay
of the grounds this year from that of
former years. New bleachers have
been built at the southerly end Of the
grandstand and the entrance to the
track from the midway, at that point,
has been done away with. A new gate
has been constructed and much bet
ter opportunity is afforded those wish
ing to see the races from the lower end
Of the track.
The fair officials have everything in
readiness now for the four days of en-
tartainment that the people Of Bangor
and vicinity look forward to each year
;.:d it is expected that the attendance
will surpass that Of former years for
there are more attractions at this, the
33rd annual exhibition that there have
been for several years. The stock ex-
hibits this year are more complete and
the fact that a large number Of the
best harness horses in the State have
been housed at Maplewood park the
entire summer and are now making
preparations to fight for a good slice
of the purses offered by the fair asso-
ciaticn, assures the followers of the
turf that there will be some good rae
ing this week. DR.. c. F, Dwinall Of this
city who has charge Of the racing, has
prepared a fine card Of races for the
four days and the horsemen are anx-
ious to try out this track at Maple
wood which is known throughout the
whole of New England as a good one.
The Executive Staff
President Field is ably assisted this
year by the following officers of the fair
association: F. A. w. Field, vice presi-
dent; Mrs. S. P. Emery, secretary; Will
liam H. Robinson, auditor; c. F. Latham,
manager of the advertising department;
Mrs. Elizabeth Field, superintendent of
the auditorium exhibits; Miss Hattie L.

Sara E. Ward, secretary of the art de-
