Republicans Sweep
Maine by Over
$4,000 Majority

Returns from Maine Tuesday
indicate that Col. Frederic H.
Park hurst, Republican nominee for
governor, has defeated Bertram G.
McIutire, Democrat, by a plurality
of fully 65, 900 to 6S, 900.
Republicans won every office.
The governorship, the state ticket,
all four seats in congress, the en-
tire state senate and all except ten
seats in the state house of repre-
sentatives fell to Republicans. The
League Of Nations was the domi-
nant issue and women were voting
for the first time.
Returns from 5S7 out of 632
precincts in the state gave Park
hurst, Repu blican, 132, ,475; McIn-
tire, Democrat, 6S, 154. RepubIi-
can plurality, 64,321.
These same precincts in the
last presidential year, 1916, gave:
Milliken, Republican, 1925;
Curtis, Democrat, 65.S73. Repub-
lican plurality, 13,405.
The Democratic total had been
swelled by only slightly over 1900,
while the Republican total had
mounted by $1,000
This meant, the political experts
said, that the new voters, the
women, had voted Republican.
Fully $4,000 women voted in
Maine. OF this number it is esti-
mated that at least so per cent

SCHOOL SITUATION
DISCUSSED HERE:
Citizens Form Club for Cam
paign to Assist in Raising
Funds to Garry On Educa-
tional Work; Officers Named.

A public meeting was held last
night at the city hall in regard to
the universities and colleges of the
state, with Q. [. Spessard presid-
ing, he speaking briefly on the
value of properly looking after our
educational interests.
g. [. Madison, representing the
five educational institutions in this
amendment publicity campaign,
spoke of the condition that the
state schools are in at the present
time. The revenue that the schools
are now receiving was fixed by the
Legislature in 1917, before this
great increase in the number of
students and before the enormous
prices came on.
Last fall the University of Boul-
der had to refuse admittance to a
number of students because of lack
Iof class room space and of in
'ssfacts'ls. Lash year At tF..y Agfl-
cultural college slight increase
in salaries for the instructors was
put into effect, but funds are not
now available to maintain that
increase longer than next June.
After that date, unless other pro-
vision is made, salaries at this
institution will have to be cut 80
per cent.
DR.. Underhill then spoke about
the crowded conditions at Golden
aud the need for more revenues to
adequately carry on the work. He
emphasized the fact that with the
exception of Golden, no town
would receive as much benefit from
the passage Of this educational
a m en- d m II as would Idaho
Springs. The School Of Mines
has been negotiating tor INNING
property here, and this would mean
that many of the students would
come here for their practical work.
The fact of 10 or 100 students
spending three or four weeks here
each season would mean several
thousand dollars to Idaho Springs.
An educational amendment club
was formed at the meeting last
night, and the following officers
and chairmen of committees were
selected: President, G. /. Spessard;
secretary, Mrs. w. H. Staver.
