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 Maine's
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.
Twas shame that sunk the souls of US
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 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.

Gratis are yammering.
The Wilson Administration stands
for taxes, and more taxes.

TO refer to ]. Ham Lewis as J. "Pork''
Lewis?
Bryan says Mr. Hughes talks aren't
judicial. No. The people can under
stand 'em perfectly.
Can the folks on the Democratic
band wagon continue to play by the

Hughes says the country can't be
saved by letting 1t drift. That's where
he and w. Wilson differ.
