sires this school-Batesburg. This

that Abbeville will be compelled to

1t is understood that five locations
have been offered the school al

the Dundas Place; one on the old

on the Hughes Place above town.
Some definite announcement is to
be made about the matter shortly.
Mr.. Jones has been in conference

MAINE ELECTION
Parkhurst Named For Governor By
Large Majority. Women Cast
Ballots For First Time And
Many Participate

Portland, Me-, Sept. 14.-Freder-
ick H. Parkhurst, Republican, was
elected governor of Maine today by
a plurality which at a late hour pro-
missed to be the largest in the history
of the state. His Democratic oppo-
nent, Bertrand Mcintyre, received
approximately half as many votes as
Mr.. Parkhurst. The Republicans car
ried all four congressional districts
by large majorities, reelecting Repre-
sentatives Wallace H. Wite, Jr., John
y. Peters and Ira C. Hersey, and
elccting Carroll L. Beedy of Port
land, in the first district, where Rep
resentative Louis B. Goodall was
not a candidate for reelection. They
also obtained commanding lead in
the state legislature and elected Roy
L. Wardwell of Augusta, as state aud
itor. In all parts of the state women
availed themselves of their first op-
portunity to vote in the state election
and the figures showed that a large
majority of them voted the Republi-
can ticket. The vote for Parkhurst, on
returns from more than two
thirds of the state showed an
increase of more than $4,000 over
that cast for Milliken four years ago,
while McIntyre's vote was less than
1900 more than that of Curtis, DEM
ocrat, in the last presidential year.
Returns from 557 elections pre-
cincts out of 632 in the state (from
453 cities and towns out of 519) for
governor give: Parkhurst, Republican
124,966; Mcintyre, Democrat, g.
These same precincts in 1916 gave
Milliken, Republican, 74,979; Curtis,
Democrat, 62,453.
The Republican strength was uni
form throughout the night. Several
of the cities which showed small De-
mocratic pluralities in 1915 returned
pluralities for Parkhurst today. In
many others, which went Republican
four years ago, the plurality for that
ticket was greatly increased this year.
Considerable significance in the
outcome in it's bearing on the voting
for president in November was assert
ed by Republican leaders from the
fact that the campaign was fought
out almost wholly on national lines,
with the league of nations as the
chief issue.

CHAIRMAN SAYS HIS PARTY
is HONESTLY BUT DES-
PERATELY POOR.

LII ooNs
New York, Sept. 14.-Comment-
ing on the result of yesterdays cleo
ion in Maine, George White, chair
man of the Democratic national
committee, today issued the follow
ng statement:
"This is the Republicans day of
ejoicing. They planned, labored and
paid for it, and would not, by any
utterance of. mine, rob them Of any
of their need of i;y. With splendid
Organization and with the expendi-
ture of every effort possible to great.
finances they prepared the Republic
can state of Maine for this state
election in the hope of persuading
the country that the trend is heavily
Republican in the national race.
"Had the Democratic party been
presented the same opportunity in
state where the trumpet call of De-
mocracy means as much as the
clarion of Republicanism in Maine,
we should have made the same psy-
chology in mind. ...
eve shall have votes for the
N,ague in November from thousands
of the men and women who support
ed Colonel Parkhurst. On certain
morning in November our time for
rejoicing will come, and in the
meantime we gaze cheerfully upon
e., today's Republican demonstration
and do not begrudge to them at
ALL"
! Chairman White lin a statement
issued later today referring to
newspaper reports from Maine that
the Republican organization there
was "active and widespread' while
! he Democrats were "weak and
eeble of resource" said in part:
"That is true. Perhaps the gener-
i al public will be interested in the
reason for this contrast.
eve are honestly but desperately
jpooA The poor man must pick up
and choose his experiences. Lacking
the purse to purchase luxuries he
iconfines himself to necessities. He
can not afford steak, and mush-
rooms so he subsists comfortably on
bacon and beans. The result often is
that he outlives the rich man across
whose table seven indigestible
courses pass in Eightly procession
before a jaded appetite.
"Maine was luxury to US in a
state election. We could not afford
lit, and so we charged it off long
ago. We did not organize it; we did
fill its tables with literature and its
ears with oratory. The Republicans
knew this and with conventional
sense of political psychology set out
to roll up the biggest majority pos
sible, for its effect on the country.
"Our kingdom is afoming, and
the crossing of the Jordon is near
lat hand.
"But we do not conceal that the
Democratic national committee is
seriously put to it in the matter of
money. We arc hopeful that we will
find enough to make ends meet and
that we will be able to place in the
field behind our dauntless COM
mander an effective army if small
one. The fight he is making is not
cne to be lost because millions are
withheld from the Democratic COM
mittee by those who have them.
Mamma fell in the wilderness and we
ook with hope to the moral forces
the nation for whose issues we
tand not to permit our campaign
starve.

an empty stomach, it has been
