SMITH CONDEMNS
HEARST SUPPORT
Predicts Defeat of Mills in
New York Publishers
kiss of DEATH"
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, October 25.-The chief
candidates in New York States hot
campaign are concentrating on the
metropolitan district for the final days
of the campaign. Indications are that
the fireworks will continue.
William Randolph Hearst, publish
er, has given Ogden Mills the kiss of
death" by supporting the Republican
candidate for governor, in the opinion
Of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, Mills Demo-
cratic rival.
To this the Mills campaign manage
ment retorts that Smith expressed
gratitude for the support Of the
that he must be greatly peeved be-
cause he lacks that support this
year."
Of his opponent Gov. Smith says:
II am satisfied he is not on the level"
Referring to a charge by Mr.. Mills
that he had vetoed bill to install
voting machines In New York City,
the governor said: That's a cold
blooded, wicked, deliberate misstate-
ment. The bill was signed by Gov.
Miller and not vetoed by Gov. Smith.
1t is statement unworthy of q blue
blooded aristocrat with a Harvard ed
ucation."
In a letter to the president Of the
United German Societies of New York
City the governor denounced the ia
natical drys who see in a harmless
glass of beer the sum total Of In
iquity."
1.-THE German people," he added,
have demonstrated how families can
enjoy life with music, songs and d
little beer"
The Mills campaign reverted to its
charges that adulterated milk is sold
in New York, the candidate himself
writing a letter to Gov. Smith remind
ing him of the graft charges and the
need of a Statewide inquiry to insure
a pure milk supply to six million per-
sons in Greater New York.

HARR|SON'S PLANS
STIR WOOD REPLY
G. O. P. Chairman Gives His
Theory of Democrats
Party Designs.
3y the Associated Press.


Representative Wood of Indiana,
chairman of The national Republican
congressional committee, in a state
ment made public yesterday, declared
Republicans accept the issue. which
he attributed to Senator Harrison,
Democrat, Mississippi, that the Dem
ocratS, if given control Of the Senate,
Twill raise hell"
ASKED just what his party would
do If given control of the Senate, the
House. or both" Mr.. Wood said, Sen
ator Harrison replied, We will raise
hell
That is the only 100 per cent hon.
est statement produced by Demo
cratic spokesman in this campaign.
The reaction to this Demo
cratic pronouncement Of policy al
ready is evident throughout the Ma
ton.
THE man of modest income now
has begun to think about the benefits
that have come to him through the
past five years of Republican govern
mental control. For Illustration, the
maximum income tax now on $4,000 is
$3.50, where it was $120 in 1918.
"Men Of larger business and indus
trialists realize that hell-raising means
for them a low tariff and consequent
business stagnation.
Farmers realize that hell-raiSing
means for them increased cost for
virtually all of their necessities and
lower prices for cattle. grain and dairy
products through destroying that
tariff wall that now protects the ag-
ricultural market. They know also
that it means a deadlock on efforts to
further agricultural progress through
legislation.
THE laborer knows that hell-raising
will bring him unemployment, re-
turn to low wages and general discon-
tent"

of the Republican tariff and a change
in the prohibition laws.
Robert F. Wagner, the Democratic
candidate for Senator,( accuses his
opponent of "double-dealing tactics"
in that he waited until he got into
wet territory before he said how he
would vote on the State dry referen-
dunn. Wagner declared himself strong
ly for modification of the Volstead
act.
Collision between Gov. Smith and
Senator Wadsworth is charged by a
committee backing Franklin w. Crist-
man. independent Republican, for Sen
ator on a dry ticket.

Big Hit to be Repeated Tomorrow
Night

Night.
Tomorrow night, the cabaret
minstrels, presented by the firemen
on Easter Monday, will be repeated
at Hancock hall under the auspices
of the cast of characters.
Few amateur entertainments in
Ellsworth ever met with such sue
cess as the cabaret minstrels. 1t
was thoroughly enjoyed by all who
saw it. Many who were so pleasant
ly entertained Easter Monday by the
fine singing, witty jokes and dancing
in this show, are eager to see it
again. Many who did not see it
before, but heard of it, will grasp
the chance to see it.
1t is the same minstrel, yet not
the same. With the experience
furnished by one performance as a
foundation, Manager Davis, ably
backed by a lively. cast, has i'm
proved the show immensely. New
songs have been added, and brand
new Jokes have been unearthed, be-
sides one big hit in particular that

smelling salts with them to revive
those who succumb from laughter.

fine work at the piano on Easter
Monday, will officiate again tomor-
row night.
There will be no reserved seats.
Tickets will be sold from the box
office at the hall at o'clock. The
doors will be opened at 7.30, the

Fifteen voices will be added to the
chorus for this performance. A
dance will follow the show. The

The Maine Automobile Assocl-
alton, organized for the express pur-
pose of serving the motorists OF
Maine, is going strong, and with
rapidly increasing membership is
extending its influence in getting de-
sirable legislation, promoting better
roads and better road markings, and
in many other ways justifying it
self.
With increased strength, it has
greatly extended it's free emergency
road service, and in it's administra-
tion of this department, has al
ways been most liberal in the inter-
pretation of it's liability under the
rules. The association is now ar
ranging for a 2-cent gas reduction to
members at many of it's service sta
tions
The Maine Automobile Associ-
alton is for Maine motorists, and
aims to give them more for their
money than any other similar or
ganization. It can do this because
its executive officers serve without
pay, and a large part of the mem
bership fee comes back to the motor
ist in better Maine roads and in road
service.

soon. But it is inevitable that soon
