i want to answer Mr.. Cornwell," said
Mr.. Darst, when he condemns the
present assessment law by saying
this: If we had not changed the as
sessment laws and increased the value
of lots of the property four and five
times, it would have been impossible
to run the State government on a 30
cent State levy. as it was in 1877, out
crease the State levy s1.50 on the s10O
valuation
And that is not all" continued
Mr.. Darst THE small property OWL
ers would have suffered most, because
the men Mr.. Cornwell speaks Of whose
property had been raised five and zen
times under the new law, would have
continued to escape under the old law,
while those least able to pay would
have the big load to carry, as they did
before the new assessment laws were
passed. Instead of having a II cent
levy for State and school purposes. as
we had last year, it would have requir'
ed at least a $3.50 levy for State pur,
poses Yet in face of these facts,
which cannot be denied, Mr.. CornwelI
says all those who have voted for
these laws will feel like organizing

one juncture, "Cornwell in his petty

ProGreSSiveS Returned.
The prosreSsiYeS. VINO TWO years
ago cast 1926 votes, returned largely
TO the Republican party in the opinion
Of Republican leaders. The closest
fight was for congress from the Sec
ond district, where Representative
Daniel J. McGillicuddy was defeated
BY Wallace H. White, Jr, by 500
plurality.
At 1890 o'clock tonight. the indica-
tions, based on tabulation OF the
vote from d little more than hall the
precincts, were that the Republicans
had won the state election today by
safe pluralitieS.
Ii the ratio of the Republican mar'
gin is maintained. Carl E., Milliken
will be elected governor by about
1900 plurality. Bert NJ. Fernaid,
Republican. seems 10 have been elect
ed for the short term. IN the United
States senate, and the same ratio OF
gain would give him a plurality OF
$500.
Johnson, Democrat, apparently has
an indicated plurality Of $500. II the
Republican Congressional candidates
hold the lead they had al the above
hour. three, Louis B. Goodall, in the
First District. Congressman John a.
Peters, in the Third. and Ira u. Her
Sey. In the Fourth. will be elected.
Congressman Daniel j. McGilicuody,
Democrat, appeared 10 have been de-
feated in the Second district by Wal
lace H. White. but the fight was close.
The total vote may prove 10 have been
the largest ever cast IN the state.
Hottest Fight Ever.
The election was the elimination OF
one of the hottest fights ever waged
in the state, and marked the reunion
OF the Republican and Progressive par
ties whose differences In 1912 gave
the electoral vote OF Maine TO Presl-
dent Wilson and two years later re-
suited in the election OF Governor Otk-
ley C.. Curtis, a Democrat, BY plu-
rality Of 3,l89. ToniSht'S figures lndl-
cate that the larger percentage OF the
Progressive vote which two years ago
was 1925, was cast today for the Re-
publican ticket.
Throughout the campaign in which
a great number Of men from all parts
Of the country. and drawn from Re
publicans, Democrats and ProgreSslEeS
participated, national issues were kept
10 the front. The interest aroused to-
gether with perfect election weather,
brought out one Of the biggest votes
ever cast in the state and possibly
greater than has been known before:
For the first time the two United
States Senators were elected by popu-
lar vote, and the Republicans made
determined effort to win the one seat
