THE MAINE RESULT.

Maine was relied upon to show a strong republican plurality in the state election on Monday, and Maine has de- livered the goods. Maine has done even better than was anticipated and however elating it is to the republicans it must for the same reason present a dubious outlook for the democrats. Maine is ex- pected to go republican, but it has done more than that this year. It has elected in centers where democrats were elected before and there cannot fail to be a significance in the bigger than-expected result, Early in the cam pa ign the goal of the state republican committee was fixed at about 10000 plurality. The national committee urged that they should work for 50, 900. believ- ing that the larger figure even though it was not reached would serve to awaken interest. Not only has the 5O,- 000 believing that the larger figure even though it was not reached would serve to awaken interest Not only has 5O.O00 been reached but it has been passed to such an extent that a plural ity equalliug almost the total of botE goals has been secured. Maine certainly has done it's duty and there is no reason to tuppose but what even though il certainly has done it's duty and there is no reason to suppose but what even though it is nor. mallv republican that the overwheln ing plurality now portends not only what Maine, but the rest of the country will do in November. It shows the de mand that exists for change of ad r,inistration and the ending of the vii son policies. Maine leads the way.
 In the Maine figures it is to be real ized that the vote this year has beer swelled by the participation of women but that was of course anticipated in tn, goals that were set. The women hay, simply stood by the political inclination of the men.
 Among the democrats there are thos who like u0 point out that since 1e0; the vote in Maine has not indicated what the country might do. but it is f, be remembered that the two presidentia elections following that found the renuh
 ican party divided. That was disclose by the marked difference between tn votes in the state and national election in Maine. Conditions are different +o
 day. The republican party is nnite, again and the balloting that has take place in Maine where the campaign ha
 been conducted on national issues give hearty encouragement.

FIGHTING THE PESTS.

Lsrre sums Of money have been spent in the fighting of the many pests that feed upon and destroy vegetation. Much effort has been put forth that can not be measured in dollars and cents, and it Is realized that what action has been taken has served to greatly reduce Inc menace and to preserve crops and trees. Different sections of the country nave had their experiences in this work sf eradication and prevention and New England has not been overlooked.
 The way in which federal and state funds have been utilized ir the fighting such pests has been the means of retard- tnE their progress and cutting the losses ln the sections where they were fought. AZ the sarns time it has been giving pro- teefion to other districts not infested. but it cannot fan 10 be realized that the retard5uE of the progress or the restric- tan ct certain areas has not ended the dahxsr sherefrom. Just as soon as thkre is any let up on the part of those who are participating in the fight the ravagss are resumed.
 The past sumner has been one during wksch there has been an unusually large member of moths Their presence means tr@uble of one kind or another. and for auans time about the eity and in the cuantry there have been noticed many of .-hs trees loaded with caterpillar nests.

THE OUTLAW STRIKE.

The ending of the outlaw strike among the railroad men of Chicago as announced by their leader, is only what was forecasted when it started in the spring. The railroad men, numbering as is claimed something like 5000, set out to disregard their contract. to defy the orotherhoods, to insist upon a still great cr increase in wages and to establish their own outlaw organization through out the country. They were fighting not only their own union but they Were showing no regard whatever for the ef feet which their action was having up- on the country at large. It is the pub
 lie that has been suffering from their acts for the past six months.
 Trouble has been experienced in get ting others to take their places Trans portation as the result has been inter- rtpted but it has been demonstrated
 that others could do their work and ef- Icient handling of trains was being ac- comDlished. It was thus made evident ! that their strike was a failure.
 That many of those who voted for ] and participated in the unjustified strike sought employment elsewhere is proba i nle but for those Who were not success
 ful it has been a Ax months with great ' ly reduced income. In addition they
 have thrown away the advantages whicF had accrued through their years of ser
 vice On returning they must not onl, go back under the old rate of pay bu { 2s new employees which means that they | must take their chances with the otheI fellow and get along without their sen fer y rights.
 The lesson should prove a convincine
 'ne not only to them but to all other, who are disposed to engage in strikes il 'Nioiation of their contracts and in def @E6a of the rules and the advice of tn,
 officials of their organizations. If ex
 perience has been good teacher il
 their case they should studiousiy ayoi,
 such radical and unwarranted action il he future.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Female Vote.

MT. Editor: There seems to be much speculation as to which way the wo- men will cast their vote on November End. The politicians from both the re- publican and democratic camps are fall ing all over themselves in their endeavor to coral the female vote. It matters not that only a short time ago the politicians of both parties were working hand in hand to defeat the granting of the fran chise to women. Mrs. Harriet Stanton BIatch, daughter of Elizabeth Cady Stan4 ton, both of whom were pioneers in the equal suffrage movement had this to say of the two parties: ITO a man high up in the councils of the republican par ty I said that if one clipped the headings off the party platforms one could not determine to which of the two old parties the declarations of principles belonged. He thought a moment ana replied: That is 80. We are both pret- ty nice, aren't We? It tickles ones fan cy, by the way, to think of the parties of Jefferson and Lincoln coming hat in hand before the new voter. From the gallery I have watched the comedy sev- eral times. Nothing more solid divides the protagonists than the chiffon dress of the chairman"
 Mrs. B1atch has recently joined the so-
 ciahst party so I suppose the intellect uals CD of the major parties will pro- | ceed to drop Mrs Blatch like a hot po- tato.
 As a matter of fact there is but one political party which has stood from first | to last for equal suffrage and that is the socialist party. Yet it is very doubt fM if the women in any great numbers will vote the socialist ticket this fall | They will no doubt l4p-en to the siren call of the two old parties. But I car not believe the women when once arous ed will fall for the rant and piffle year 1 after year as the men have done. Over forty years ago Eugene Debs escorted 1 Susan B. Anthony from the station to heI l hotel in Terre Haute, Indiana, Of thi, Debs asys: Even my friends were dis

The presence of either one of the condi- tions is sufficient to warn those who are likely to be directly affected that even though there is no organized effort to combat them that individual effort should be put forth at every opportu- nity to reduce future devastation by de- stroying these nests A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. It is possible to make big progress in de- stroying such pests if they are taken at the right time. Every nest wiped out reduces the menace greatly and by ear ly. active and concerted action it is pos sibe not only to better present condi tions but to strike telling blow for the future It is. however, job fer the many rather than the few.
