HON. IRA G. HERSEY
OF HOuLT0N OPENS
SENATE C0MPAIGN
Characteristic Address by Aroos-
took Man at Milo Thursday
Evening-His Position on
Public Questions Made Plain.

Milo. Me, Mar. 9.-Hon. Ira G. Her.
sey Of Houlton, President Of the Maine
Senate and candidate for United
States senator from Maine. opened his
campaign here tonight in an address
characterized by his usual directness
and fluency. He said:
l shall use plain words tonight while
discuss the questions Of the hour.
Must Not Repeat Mistakes.
The Democratic Party is in control
in state and nation. They never win
on their own strength or merit, but
only by and through the weakness or
division Of the Republican Party. They
can only hope to retain place and power
in this State and nation by the Repub-
lican Party repeating the mistakes and
failures of 1912. If the Republican
Party in Maine at their coming State
Convention adopt Progressive Plat
FORM and at the June Primaries nomi-
nate for office men of progress, true to
the people, and who stand against ma
chine politics and for better things in
government, then they will not only
elect Governor in September, but they
will control the Legisiature~al1d-s Send
four Congressman and a United States
Senator to Washington. If, on the 9TH
err hand, the Republican Party Of Maine
at their State Convention in Portland.
the 23rd Of the present month. adopt
meaningless platform of glittering gen.
eralities that gives nothing Of progress
or hope to the people, and if at the
June Primaries, the old machine poll
tjcionS dictate the aipctiOn and nOni-
nation OF candidates who have been in
strumental in wrecking the Republican
Party in the past, and who today stand
for nothing but return Of the good
old days of graft and greed and spoils.
then party democracy will still rule the
State of Maine. and the will Of the peo-
pie Will be defeated. Further, If the
Republican Party in National Conven-
ton adopt a platform in accordance
with the needs and demands of the age.
and nominate for President man who
stands for the best interest Of the
American people, and against the pollt-
ical bosses that defeated the party in
1872 then the reign of Free Trade, va
citation and incompetence will cease
in this nation, and the people will en-
ter upon a new era of prosperity. II.
on the other hand, the National Con-
vention is controlled by the same politi-
cal machine that brought defeat to the
Republican Party in 1912, then the
Democratic Party, in spite Of its incom-
petence and failures. will still retain
it's place and power. and the people will
continue to suffer in basket and In
store" with no hope Of relief except
that distasteful and disgusting pittance
that has come to us in the past from
the sale Of arms to the bloody God OF
War

For Honest Endeavor.

AS one who approved the revolt OF
the people against machine politics IN
1912. and as one who voted for Roose-
welt at the last National Election, be-
lieve that the voters now in the Pro-
eressive Party should work today With
in the ranks Of the Republican Party
and should use all honorable means
within that party to dictate its plat
forms and nominate for Office men OF
progress. If they fail after an honest
endeavor, then it is time to revolt and
form separate organization. The
present hour is not the time to abandon
the ship Of State" to those WHO would
scuttle or wreck it on the rocks OF par
ty politics I am opposed to all political
deals, or piracy il politics. A political
boss in the Progressive Party who
attempts to hold together an organi-
cation for the purpose of using 1t
to make a trade or bring about a po-
litical deal, to obtain thereby a divi-
sion Of party spoils Is just as dis
tasteful and obnoxious as machine
politician in the Republican Party who
attempts at the Primary Election to de-
feat the will Of the people and nominate
a candidate who is bound hand and foot
to the old machine and who is slave
to an invisible government"
The Primary Election fof>kte nomi-
nation Of a candidate for United States
Senator from Maine will be held June
10, next. The election that follows in
September will be the first occasion and
opportunity given to the people Of
Maine to vote directly for United
States Senator.
The "good old way has been reject
ed and repudiated by the people. be-
cause Of the corruption and scandal
that sometimes attended and surrounded
such a nomination and election. Hith-
erto, It was understood that no one
should be q candidate for United States
Senator unless he Or his friends had Q

qualification; his next was his ability

TRINITY IUTHERlNS
ALWAYS RANK HIGH
IN THEIR ATTENDANCE

A review OF the records made by
the Sunday schools which have sub
mitted returns on their attendance
for the month of May, shows that
Trinity Lutheran was one of the three
leaders on every Sunday of the month.
On the first two Sundays it ranked
third; on the third Sunday it went
to second, and last Sunday, when
children were kept from attending by
the weather, Trinity went into first
place. No other Sunday school can
claim the record Of qualifying every
Sunday in the list of ranking three.
The Second Lutheran headed the
list on the first Sunday In the month
and on the third, but failed to qualify
on the other Sundays. The First
Lutheran stood second on the second
Sunday and third on the third Sunday.
Reid Memorial stood first on the
second Sunday, but was unable to get
in the upper class any other time.
The North A street Friends stood
second on the First Sunday and the
West Richmond Friends second on
the last Sunday. The ranking for the
four Sundays in May follows:
