LEADERS HERE ELATED
They Exprrss Confidence Of Victory
in November.

Republicans at nationdl headquarters
were jubilant last evening over the
Mains returns, As the r,turns came in
and the Republican pluralitics mounted
the feeling became one of citation.

poet In the last few days that the Re-
publicans would carry the State by Il

The minimum and .o.o00 a. the MAY
imum hopd for. The indication that the
plurality on the Govcrnorsh,p would bc
around the mean OF these gave every
body satisfaction.
The election of the two Senators had
been claimed by Mr., Wilcox, but much
concern was felt over Mr.. lialc's
chances. AS The Republicans must gain
nine new Senators over their present
number to control the senate, the cleo
ton of both the Main" senators was the
cause Of great rejoicing.
Many Republicans and frogrcssivcs
had gathered to hear the returns from
Maine. Among those present were Her

Regarding these criticisms George W.
Perkins. in n formal statement. said
yesterday
THE work Of the campaign is getting
on splendidly. or course there are points
of difference in every state and in
many sections of every state, but in my
judgment the campaign has been very
successful. Mr., Wilcox was very gen.
erous In his welcome to the workers of
the Progressive party, and has shown
every consideration TO the point of view
and the principles for which they have
been working.
THE campaign has been under way
only five or six weeks, and in a tempera-
ture ranging from 80 to 100 degrees II
seems to me that the nature of the
work lone has been satisfactory. 4
great deal of preparatory work Of a
substantial nature has been accom-
plished. Persons inexperienced In cam
paign work probably fail to realize the
magnitude of such an undertaking. 1t
always takes several weeks to get to-
gether a stan to man the departments.
II Is not easy TO get men. who must
leave their occupation for activities OF
u temporary nature. This ground Mr..
Wilcox has covered in the past few
weeks. 1t seems to ne In the bureaus,
such as the ADVERTISING. speakers. &c,
that the organizing has been satisfactory
and in the campaign they will give a
good account OF themselves"

wAsHINcroN. Sept. ll.-"Politics stop

This Is the reply authorized by the Ad-
ministration to-day to the charges OF in
competency and neglect which the Re-
publicans are aiming at President Will
sons management of foreign. affairs. The
statement BY Chairman Wilcox Of the
Republican nationl committee calling at
tention to the collapse Of American inter-
ests in the Far East. brought this dec
laration Of the ADMINISTRATIONS position.
II is added that the Presidents advisers
are following Senator Lodges slogan by
appealing to the country not to allow
foreign affairs to influence partisan poll
tics.
This appeal probably will be made con-
sistently from now until election. The
Administration feels that as a patriotic
duty the Republicans should let bygones

concerned and Join with the Democrats
in a truce to preserve n discreet silence
on all matters concerning this Govern-
ment's relations with other governments.
