In 1912 the Democrats cast for
Wilson 51115 votes; two years
later, in 1914, Curtis, the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor,
polled 62039. votes, a gain of
1926 over 1912. This year the
vote for the Democratic candidate
for governor is 66547 or gain of
1884 votes over the Democratic
vote for president four years ago.
No one expected Maine to 60
other than Republican. Only once
since 1868 has a Democratic presi-
dental candidate carried the
state, and if Republicans can get
any consolation or encouragement
out Of Democratic gain of 10000
votes, they are indeed welcome to
it.
