The Wind From Maine.

A wind that's from the rocks and sea
and scented by the pine
Sweeps through the sycamores today,
and where sequoias line
The ranks of giant sentinels that guard
the western slopes,
The balsam of this briny breeze brings
heavy hearts new hopes.
The mountains and the rivers cry the
message that is Names
To men whose pride was shattered,
and their desperation wanes;
Again their hearts are raised to look
the future in the face
For Maine has been the clarion that's
heartening a race.
to depths we never knew
In days our flag was honored in the
harbors where it flew,
When nations paid US homage, for
they knew our hands were white,
Ere blood of our own countrymen had
stained them like a blight.
And now again our songs we sing of
deeds that we must do
To make the dream that passed away
come marvelously true;
For the sturdy souls that breathe the
pine have brought to life again
The faith that fills a nations heart
that feels the wind from Maine.

sagacity of Josephus Daniels? Then,
why let him handle the millions that

them to vote for Mr.. Hughes
A train Of thought on a one-track

Three years ago Woodrow Wilson
was explaining that hard times were
psychological, but he isn't trying to

The disaster to the Memphis caused
very little excitement, Americans be-
Ing used nowadays to seeing the navy

last President to issue bonds to secure

place for letting him know that he will

For every reason that can be adj
vanced why Progressives should vote
for Wilson, ten can be advanced why
they should vote for Hughes and the
beauty of it is that they know the rea-
