Sweeping Victory.
ElBy Ed. l.. Keen, United Press Stat
Correspondent
! NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE sweep
ing republican victory in the Maine
state election was as astounding tc
republican national leaders as it was
to the democrats. today
That the state should go republican
by majority of approximately 20,
900 over the former high water mark
! in 1896 Of forty-eight thousand was
unexpected even by the most Opt
mistic party leaders. The most ex
ltravagant prediction forecasts made
by republican state leaders did not &C
lover forty thousands.
Although democratic national lead
,ers had entertained no hope of demo
cratic success in Maine they were
mot looking for republican majority
of more than 25,G00.
"The republicans planned. labored
and paid for their victory in the
Maine elections yesterday" George
White, democratic national chairman
isaid in statement today.
This is the republican day of re
joicing." he said with a splendid
Organization and with the expendi
lures OF every effort possible to great
finances, they prepared the republican
state of Maine for its 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 a
state where the trumpet call OF de
mocracy means as much as the
clarion Of republicanism means in
Maine, we should have made as near
Ily the same efforts as possible with
the same psychology in mind"
Chairman Will Hays Of the repub-
'lican national committee, lost no
time in putting out statement IN
which he attributed the result largely
to dissatisfaction with the Wilson
administration.
'The result" said Hayes. gives
the greatest reinsurance to all well
'wishers OF good government regard
less of past party affiliations. This
republican victory un-
mistakably evidences the demoraliza,
ton of their leader, Woodrow Will
son. and the complete condemnation
of the campaign of Candidate Cox.
The women, too. have demonstrated
their dependability in this crisis
other republican leaders ascribed
the result largely to Governor Cox Q
