Maine

M AiNE to-day will elect Il Governor. two
IVA United States Senators and the four
congressman 10 which the Connie wealth is
entitled. For weeks spellbinders of both
parties have ranged over Names rugged hills
and the political prophet has been abroad
in the land Maine we have been told is to
point the way Of the November elections
1t may be so, although Maine in the past
frequently has proved poor prophet Rock
ribbed in her Republcanism until four years
ago. the State up to that time had cast her
electoral votes for fourteen successive presi-
Dental candidates of the Grand Old Party.
When the Grand Old Party went on the rocks
and was cleft in twain, Woodrow Wilson re-
ceved the benefit.
There is no Progressive ticket this year
and Progressive votes the spoils for
which the opposing candidates contend If
enough of them cast for the Democrats
TO elect Il portion OF the Democratic ticket.
President Wilson'S advisers probably will feel
their labors have not been in vain In the
gubernatoria! election Of two years ago
Curtis. Democrat, received 62,039 votes;
flaines Republican. 5S.S62, and Gardner,
Progressive. 1925. Those ballots that were
cast in 1914 for Gardner will tell the tale
in to-dayS fight
From this distance. speculation is entirely
futile. Maine politics is compcat ted propo-
siton. and State issues will have their in
iluenco even on the selection Of Senators and
congressman Enforcement of prohibition
laws is vexod question, and this may inure
to the advantage of either set OF candidates
1t remains true. however, that the rem
nants OF the old Progressive strength hold
the balance OF power and the division OF this
vote Will leach whatever lessons properly
may be drawn from the Maine election If
a substantial portion tails to the lot of the
Democrats il may not he sufficient to give
thcm victory in Maine but it will Indicate
in way highly satisfactory to Democratic
hopes, the trend OF Progressive sentiment
throughout the nation.
Democrats may long for a sweeping vic
tory in the Pine Tree State-they may even
feel thcy have sound reason to expect such a
triumpl.--but nfty-siX years of almost un-
broken tepublicanism does justify too
much Democratic confidence. However ar
IDENTIFY We may desire the election OF every
Democratic candidate, We ought to realize The
difficulties the party faces and prepare our
selves Tor conlentmcnt with success on a less
wholesale scale
Republicans are talking now about 1900
major'ies but talking evidently either TO
encourage themselves or to discourage their
opponents. They don't really expect any
thing of The sort. Pretty nearly any sort OF
majority. we suspect Will be highly satisfac-
tory TO them. And, OF course any sort OF
majority will be more than satisfactory To
the Democrats
