Republicans Confident
In AndrOscoggin Co.

Auburn, Aug. 17-Androscoggin
county Republican leaders are much
pleased with the result of the whirl-
wind tour of that county. They say
that the meetings were much better
attended than two years ago and
that much greater enthusiasm is be-
ing shown.
The prediction is being made that
they will carry the county for Gov
ernor Ralph o. Brewster and Nation
al Representative Wallace H. White,
Jr., and elect the entire county tick
ct with the possible exception OF
their candidate for sheriff.
The fact that all of the Demo-
cratic county candidates with the eX-
ception of sheriff and one senator
come from the city of Lewiston is
already creating opposition among
the members of that party outside
Of Lewiston, according to reports.
Instances are recounted Of numerous
Democrats in the country towns who
say that they will not vote for all of
the Lewiston candidates.
The Democratic candidate for
sheriff, James w. Murray of Web
ster, would be hard candidate to
beat, the Republican leaders say,
were it not for the fast that leading
Lewiston Democrats who opposed
him in the primaries are still hostile
to him,

not only renewed faith in the Grange

ture Is staging a comeback. You have
advantages your farmers do not ap-
preciate-lower freight rates, proxi-
nifty to markets, fine improvements
and reasonable land values. Here is
a challenge to be worthy of New
England"
Governor Brewster spoke in opti-
mistic vein on the future of New
England agriculture. He said in
part:
Whoever sings the swan song of
Maine agriculture is reckoning with~
out a very lively ghost. According
to the figures of the United States
Department of Commerce in the past
five years there has been an increase
of over two thousand in the number
of our cultivated farms. This is a
rather conclusive indication that the
abandoned farms are showing a de-
crease in the very healthy renAs-
sance of agriculture in New England
that Is now at hand.
No New England Yankee ever
undertook to sell horse or a second
hand automobile or a farm by turn
lllS uOWIl LILO VI Ills
Pessimists will sour any soil that
they touch. We need the sunshine
of optimism and the fertilizer of
confidence in the agricultural posi-
bilities of our State.
Why are we not entitled to sing
the song Of acres that produce 305
bushels of potatoes to the acre as
contrasted with an average, of 124
bushels to the acre in the rest Of the
United States? Why is 1t not proper
to call attention to corn land that
produces AZ bushels to the acre as
contrasted with the average of %
bushels throughout the United

William NJ. Jardine, United States
Secretary Of Agriculture, recently
stated that agriculture in New Eng
land had made more remarkable pro-
gress in the last five years than in
any other part of the United States
and it Is encouraging for us to re-
member that New England agricul-
ture, to a very substantial extent,

FavOrites Come
Through in Tennis
Play at Forest Hills

Forest Hills, N. Y, Aug. 17.-(P-
The path to the tennis crown laid
aside by Helen Wills offered no Sc
rious obstacles for favorites in the
second round Of the national cham
pionship today. Veteran women play
ers, who rank high among the con-
tenders after 10 to 20 years of com
petition on the courts, stood out in
the impressive push Of seven seeded
contestants, with only mild opposition
to test the mettle Of Elizabeth Ryan,
Mrs. Molla Mallory and Mary K.
Browne.
Youth had it's place in the second
round triumphs, however. Mrs. Alfred
H. Chaplin, Springfield, lass, Martha
Bayard of Short Hills, N. j., and Pen
elope Anderson of Richmond, Va,
youngest of the seven seeded players,
came through their, matches success
fully. but Miss Anderson barely sur
vived vigorously contested three-set
match against the former national in
door champion, Mrs. B. E. Cole of Bos-
ton, 60, 1-6, 6-3.
1t remained for famous players Of
other days to supply the color and ex-
citement Of the round. Mrs. George
w. Wightman, the former Hazel
Hotchkiss. who rose to the national
pinnacle II years ago, scored in
straight sets over Mrs. ]. E. Bailey of
New York, 6-1, 6-1, while Miss Eleanor
Sears, veteran Boston sportswoman,
whose remarkable feats have given
her unique place in women's ath-
letics, passed from the singles compe-
tltion after keenly waged battle
against Miss Mildred Willard Of Phil
adelphia, making her first appearance
in the tournament today after having
drawn first round bye, Miss Ryan
sped through her match against Flea
nor Cottman of Baltimore in 20 min
utes. Only one game rewarded the
feet court covering of the Maryland
girl as her California opponent slashed
deep chops to the corners of her court
and raced to the net for crisp, acutely
angled volleys.
Mrs. Mallory's straight set victory
over Grave Bristed of New York was
posted with equaN ease and impress
siveness at 6-1, 60, while Eleanor Goss
OF New York, number five in national
ranking, yielded only three games to

president on some details of his Of
flee that have arisen since Mr.. Coo

it could obtain reliable agreements
with companies for this work in a

to tentative plans for aiding the ag-

tie light has been thrown upon the
program he has in mind.
In general, 1t has been indicated,
the step contemplates some action
among banks, insurance companies
and mortgage and loan companies
that will release frozen farm financial
paper along lines similar to the or
CARNATIONS in the northwestern
states two years ago by larger insti-
tutions for relief of smaller banks Of
the territory.
Public reports, however. were denied
today that the president was moving
to bring about s1O0,0oo,o0o private
banking pool in one or more financial
centenrs for loan purposes.
Another report that the president
was interested in conference soon
of financial leaders and farmers rep
resentatives in New York to devise
means for aiding by joint action in a
basic way the agricultural industry,
also met with a denial.
A report that the president had is
sued an order to the prohibition en-
forcement officials in Washington
against a program for placing unpaal-
atable or poisonous substances in in
distrial alcohol to make it unfit for
beverages, was denied.
Mr.. Coolidge did not even know, it
was asserted. whether he or the prohi-
bition unit had authority under the
law to adopt. such course. None had
spoken to him on the subject, it was
emphasized; he had never heard of
any such plan, and he had never given
any directions concerning industrial
