stated that four democratic presi-
Dental victories had followed four
September republican victories in
Maine. In 1912 Maine went DEM
ocratie in the September election. This
same paper placed the dividing line at
100000. Well it is $4,000.
An examination of Names vote
since 1884 shows that a Maine Sep
TENDER election that was republican
by 10000 or more meant a republican
victory in November. There has been
but single exception. In 1908 Maine
went republican in the September cleo
ton by less than 5000, though Taft
carried Maine over Bryan by more
than 2S,000
The Maine republican victory speaks
for itself. No satisfactory explanation
or abb can be offered. The forecast
that can be logically drawn from this
republican victory may be ignored by
Governor Smith. The rank and file
of the voters will not ignore it.

II ARGUMENTS FOR HOOVER

Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor and
publisher of the National Magazine,
Boston, has assembled a booklet on
Herbert Hoover telling why every
member of the Chapple family will
vote for the republican candidate. Mr..
Ghapple knows Hoover intimately and
the democratic candidate just as we'll.
knowing them, he decided to go over
the careers of both and make a care
tul analysis before making up his
mind as to which one he would sup
port. Then he had the members of
his family think it over and they un-
anlmously agreed that Hoover would
make the best president In con-
densed form he gives these, among
other, reasons:
Because of Hoover's thorough
knowledge of administration of
our government, of business af-
fairs here and abroad and of
governments abroad.
Because of his grasp of ma
tional and international business
affairs.
Because of his proven ability
to adapt himself to changing con-
ditions, an ability which means
prosperity on the farm and in the
city.
Because his campaign for fuller
pay envelopes will mean in
creased savings accounts.
Because of his efficient flood
relief work.
Because he is worthy sue
cessor to George Washington
his generalship is of the same
type as that of the first pres-
dent. To-
Because the younger generation b.
is for him as the exponent of new
ideas.
Because, as proven success in
his own business affairs and in
handling affairs of others, bust
ness will be safe with him.
Because of the long list of men
and women who have found in
him inspiration to shape their
own lives along the paths of sue
cess.
Because of his unparalleled con-
tae't with the ablest men abroad,
which would enable him to con-
tinue building this country's pres
tige and which make him the
ablest living American.
THE life of Herbert Hoover may
be safely taken as an example for
young people, for in all the work he
has done,o asserts Mr.. Chapple, "he
has never permitted anything degrad-
ing to touch his work or soil his
hands,"

WATCH PROPOSED LAW

Because the national prohibition act
may after next November be also the
state law of Montana, citizens of this
state should watch with care all pro-
posals for its modification, according
to the Rev. w. L. Wade. superintend-
ent of the Montana Anti-Saloon
league.
The democratic national candidates
have proposed modification of what
may be Montana law. Senator Robin
son, vice presidential nominee, has not
improved the situation even though
he has been nominally dry. He does
not deny charges which had been
made against Governor Smiths rec
ord. He leaves the country in doubt
concerning his own stand and espe-
eially as to how he would vote on a
tie In the senate if modification of
the Volstead act were under eonsidera-
ton.
Senator Robinson failed to state
whether he thought Smiths attitude
was right or wrong. The purpose of
his speech seemed to be to endeavor
to align dry voters of the south with
the wet democrats of the north, and
in that he fulfilled the purpose for
which he was placed on the ticket
"He does not remember. when he
says the president cannot do much
for modification of the prohibition act,
that the president is the greatest
moulder of public opinion in the
country, that he exercises his power

WHEN BOLTING is JUSTIFIED

Senator T. J. Walsh, in a speech
before the democratic state convention
held recently, complained because
Governor Dixon in his speech before
the republican state convention urged
all republicans to vote the straight re-
publican ticket.
Senator Walsh's complaint was
that Dixon and Rankin bolted the re-
publican ticket in 1912.
Senator Dixon and General Rankin,
did along with millions of other re-
publieans, bolt the republican ticket
in 1912, for the reason, that they
would not support the republican
nominee and platform. The repub-
licans that bolted the ticket have no
apology to offer, and under like cir
eumstance would do it again.
Senator Wheeler bolted the DEM
ocratic ticket in 1924 because John
w. Davis was an attorney for Morgan
& Co. of Wall street. A lot of dem
ocrats throughout the length and
breadth of the country are boiling the
democratic ticket this year for the
reason that they cannot tolerate Al
Smith and the policies for which he
stands.
1t is our belief that a great number
of democrats and republicans would
have commended Senator Walsh had
he bolted the democratic ticket this
year, as it is our understanding that
about the only thing which Walsh and
Smith agree upon, is the word "dem-
ocrat."
