Is the Election in the State of
Maine and Everybody
Knows 1t.

OFFICIAL TO rNE TEtEGnAui
WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.-It does
not require any finely sensitized in
tuition to know how official Washing
ton feels over the Republican land
glide in Maine. 1t was a sledgeham-
)ner blow over its solar plexus The
government leaders can see nothing
except ominous significance in the
result. And 1t may as we'll be stated
here and now that the avalanche was
MS much of surprise to Republicans
as 1t was to Democratic leaders.
Scrambled results We're anticipated
from the count.
In significant way, it is regarded
here, of course, as telling with scien-
stlfic and barometic accuracy the ma
,tlonal political trend; a prophecy of
the election of Charles II. Hughes.
The concrete results prove beyond
cavil three things of highest import
ance:
/. The amalgamation of the Re-
'publicans and Progressiyes is no lon
ger speculative but an established
fact.
.. The Republicans have gained
= United States senator.
5. The Republicans have gained
a member OF the House of Represen-
tatiyes.
Interests West Virgintans.
The interest of the West Virgin
Ians here-those of Republican allie
glance, at any rate, is conferred in the
three above enumerated and indis-
putable facts. The whyfore is OBJ
vious.
II the Progressive and Republican
currents in West Virginia have flowed
together, as in Maine. 1t is all over
but the shouting. Ii was indicated
in a large measure in the 1914 cleo
lions, but emphasized with force
when the Second congressional dis
trict Topped over last May and elect
ed Col. George II. Bowers to the low
er branch of the Congress- 1t was
indicated by the size of the 'Republl-
can vote cast in the June primary, as
well.
While Names indelibly displayed
trend toward Hughes for president is.
of course. pleasing to West Virginia
Republicans, as it Is to all Republic
,seans everywhere, yet the West Virgin
ians have never from the time of the
placing OF Hughes and Fairbanks in
the field as the party's national candi-
dates entertained any misgivings
about their not being able to carry
West Virginia's siXteea good votes
into the electoral college with a
whoop and hurrah. 1t is merely a
matter of arithmetic then ~ just
what their majority will be. Esti-
mates range all the way from 10000
to 1000 majority, with most guess
es centered around 10000. Privately
no Democratic leader who is jealous
Of his political judgment, and his
reputation for seeing thing as It Is,
will take time from his other con
Germs to argue it. Re admits that the

Nh Wilson would appeal to the patrio-

speakers TO save himself from ex-

ious blunders. As Mr.. Wilson has
sacrificed every vital interest, of the

As Burton Sees Ex-senator Burton,
of Ohio, who has been campaigning in

Every recourse was employed by the
Democrats 10 carry the state. The
popularity of Mr. Wilson has been
during the last few weeks at It's height
In, the face Of these conditions the re-
suit is extremely significant Such Il
pronounced victory, so unexpected by
those who took a conservative view
OF the Maine situation, must have a
marked influence on the November
election. The confidence of the Re-
publicans in the election of Hughes
has been greatly strengthened. Unless
some wholly unforeseen adverse in
tluence develops, victory is assured
Not 10 mention others, it is evident
that the speeches Of Mr. Hughes and
Colonel Roosevelt were productive of
