MAINE REDEEMED.

It il Republican year, and Maine has
led the way, and in November she will
Join the other States in electing Hughes
and Fairbanks. She has elected SOLID
Republican delegation to Congress and
after the 4th of next March we shall
have a Republ can President and Re
publican Congress. The forecasts OF
chairman Ham of the Republican State
committee as to the vote last Monday
were verified, and to those who could
read between the lines it was evident
from the statements of chairman Pattan-
gall OF the Democratic State committee
that he fully realized the conditions and
the impending defeat OF his party lh
fact all Democratic efforts IN the last
days of the campaign were for the re-
election of Senator johnson and Con-
gresham McGijlicuddy; and they had
some hopes. which proved deluslve, OF
eIectiug their candidate for Congress IN
the first district To accomplish this
they were ready to sacrifice Curtis, their
candidate for governor, and Dean Stills,
candidate for U, 5. Senator, who was
only put up TO be knocked down. On
the other hand the Republicans, while
they hoped to elect their candidate for
Congress in the second district were not
at all confident as to the result there.
Col Roosevelts speech in Lewiston no
doubt contributed materially to the Re
publican victory in this district.
1t is evident from the returns that the
Progressives generally returned to their
former party allegiance, and the larger
number We're Republicans. The Bangor
Commercial finds it hard to understand
why the vote for MIR. Milliken exceeds
the combined Republican and Progress
sive vote given for the respective candl-
dates for governor of their parties In
1914" But that is easily explained. 1t
was not wholly due to the coming out of
the stay home vote" from which
both parties no doubt benefited in like
degree, but to the votes of Democrats
who believe in the enforcement of the
laws and the observance by State officials
of the cath of office, ard who are op
posed to turning the control of the State
over to the liquor dealers and brewers.
That is the condition locally. Two years
ago, and this year, it was proclaimed
from certain quarters that Mr.. Cush-
man, the Republican candidate for sher-
if, would be defeated, and certainly no
efforts were spared to bring that result
about But Mr.. Cushman has not only
had the support Of his own party but
the votes of many Democrats who do
not want 10 have Waldo county rum rid
der; ard this year, as heretofore, Mr.
Gushman heads his party ticket.

Evidently nothing has so disturbed the
frierds OF the present administration as
She mastery showing up of the weak
ness and Wickedness of President Will
son s Mexican policy by Mr.. Hughes in
his letter OF acceptance and by Col.
Roosevelt in his speech at Lewiston.
Even the New York Times, from which
we should expect better things, affects
to treat this Mexican question as dead
issue, while 1856, 200 unframed civilians,
called from their homes and occupations
by command of the President, are en-
camped in Texas to pl otect the border,
and fresh outrages by the MeXicans are
reported daily. The Mexican question
is today vital one. President Wilson's
unWarranted interference in Mexico has
cost this country many millions of dol
lars and hundreds of lives, and entailed
upon Mexico an intefnecine warfare
disastrous in its effects upon the natives
of that country and destructive of Amer
lean property in railroads, mines and
ranches. There can be no plausible de-
fence of MIR. Wilson's ''watchful wait
ing" policy. The more it is ventilated
the VOL Sc it appears. 1t has lowered the
status of American citizenship, aroused
the enmity of all classes in Mexico, and

Samuel Uttermeyer, New Y ork law
yer, who campaigned in Maine for the
Democrats, wired to the New York Her
aid his impressions of Name people; and
he cannot say, as some campaign orators
do, that he was unsupported. Mr.. Utter
meyer said. among other things, that
"there is no earthly use in political
campaign on complex National issues in
the rural sections Of this State" that
the people appear to care little about
our foreign policy and to care less just
now" that lat the political rallies the
people are undemonstrative in their de-
meanor and immovable in their views. -
AS to the latter assertion, it certainly
was not true of the audiences addressed
by Mr.. Hughes and Col. Roosevelt; and
probably it did not occur to Mr.. Utter
meyer that the fault might be with him
and the arguments he presented rather
than with his hearers. He reports hav-
ing dined with ''two apparently very In
teliigent men," one of whom said: "Our
people down here don't think they ought
to take any backwater from them
damned Mexicans;" and though not
very elegantly expressed that is certain
ly the sentiment OF true Americans
everywhere and voices the general SEN
timent as to President Wilson's yacillat-
ing policy on the Mexican, as on most
Other vital issues. The people of Maine
are not ignorant, not fools, as was

they will join the rest of the country IN
