the republicans for president Of the United States in
1915, resigning as justice. but was defeated by
President Wilson. He served as secretary Of state
under Presidents Harding and Coolidge but in 1925
resigned again u enter private ~practice).
Who can deny the serious abuses that exist in the
administration Of justice. or the necessity Of our not
being content in repellinE unfounded charges, but Of
making fresh efforts and finding new methods to obtain
every practicable measure Of relief? I say practicable
for there are fundamental difficulties arising
from social conditions which lie beyond the reach of
means within our power.
These difficulties are so serious that some are in

"As Maine Goes, So Goes The Nation''
But Does Ii?
INVESTIGATING AN OLD P2OVERB

GAS Maine Goes, So Goes the
Nation"-this catchword has be-
come something of a national pro-
verb. The state of Maine has been
regarded by many as the political
barometer. The party that sue
ceeds in Maine always seems to ex-
pect "Fair and Warmer" weather
throughout the country. In 1920
Maine elected a Republican COVER
nor by $4,000 votes, and in the
national election gave Harding a
majority of $4,000.
In the Maine elections this yea,
William Tudor Gardiner was by an
overwhelming vote elected Cover
nor of the state, defeating the
Democratic cand date. Before the
results were known, leaders in
both parties the country over
breathlessly awaited the news.
GAS Maine Goes, So Goes the
Nation"-- thus the old catchworc
is phrased. But is it true?
Close investigation shows that
Maine went Democratic only once
since 1888. Three times during
that period, Democratic president

The story of Clarence S. Dar-
row, in brief, is the story of a boy
born in q small town, self educRt-
e. who by dint Of his broad HUI
anitarian.s SIN and constant espou-
So. of unpopular. causes, rather
TIN by his pelf or money making
p.opensities, has become known
all over the world as one of the
greatest lawyers America has
ever produced.
It is one Of the most inspiring
stories ir the world for Clarence
Darrow's life has been noble
one devoted to fighting for the
right as he saw it, irregardless OF
popular opinion and with no bow
to Mammon. For this great law
yer has come to the defense of
many accused persons unable to-
compensate him for his services.
He has always helped the under
dog and those he has thought un-
justly accused.
Darrow loves to take up lost
causes and win them. He has
~ personal magnetism and is
u r. Aous or 8 .ay popu-
larly known as the lawyer who
has never lost a case. This may
be an exaggeration, but it IS very
close to the truth.
Darrow was born in Kinsnnan,
Ohio, then moved to Ashtabula.
He early interested himself in
politics. and in fact attention was
first directed to him as the result
of his political utterances. Shortly
after the beginning of his career
he had the opportunity of becon-
ing the lawyer of a great corpor-
alton; it would have meant life
of great wealth; but Darrow turn
ed down the offer, as the hand
ling Of criminal cases appealed to
him more. He wanted to be al
ways in a position to help those
needing help. Although he IS re-
tired now, Darrow is active in
many ways and whea a case par
ticularly interests him, he forgets
that he IS retired and gets right
into the fray. A born fighter,
with great heart.
Darrow's life is remarkable in
that it shows us how a boy born
in mall towns, self-educated, has
come to be one of the greatest
lawyers in the country through
sheer native cleverness and kind
liness. Darrow takes liberal view
on all public questions, and is
even now in his retirement con-
stantly travelling and making
speeches in all parts Of the coun-
try. He is very active in fight
for the more lenient treatment of
criminals, and is the moving spirit
of the League to Abolish Capital
Punishment. 1t is Darrow's opir-
ion that people do not commit
crimes because they are bad, but
because of their environment and
mental and physical disorders. He
would have criminals treated as
if they were i'll, rather than pun
ished.
Many of Darrow's ideas are un-
popular and considered impracti-
cal, but he has devoted his life to
their furtherance with single
hearted devotion. And as result
he has gained universal respect as
a fighter, orator, and humanitar-
ian. The many great criminal
cases in which he has figured
prominently and brilliantly are
too well known to be enumerated
here. =
