Maine.
(New York Times.)


 The Maine September election may not be a good political barometer" but it is pretty ef- ficient seismograph. It accurately records the oc curence of electoral earthquake. No other. de- scription fits the totally unexpected overturn on Monday. To have elected Governor and two out of three Representatives in Congress must have surpassed the widest dreams of the Democrats For lit was hotly contested campaign. The result was not decided by the stay -at-home vote. The total least was more than 30,O00 above that recorded in the corresponding election of 1928. And the shift lin the party polling was amazing The Republican vote fell off 31 900 from four years ago. The Demo- cratic gain was less than 5000. The figures are their own eloquent commentary It is evident that thousands of Maine Republicans abandoned their own party and voted Democratic. This is the great and startling political fact which stands out above all minor explanations or excuses. The Prohibition issue may have played its part in Maine: the econ omic depression doubtless had its influence although New England has notorously suffered less from it than other parts of the country; but there is no escaping the inference that vast discontent with Republican policies and the Republican Administra- ton was the principal of the cataclysmc over turn in Maine.
 Will not like causes produce like effects all over the country next November? This is the question which will make Republican managers hag- gard and seepless from now till election day They will feel that they have to deal with something imponderable but probably invincible The State of
 
 everything may go wrong in so supposedly firmly lanchored State Maine, what may not happen elsewhere? The whole Nation is admittedly going through the same fit of the blues that was re- lfected in the Maine election. No politician can now shut his eyes to the fact that great mass of American voters are cherishing grievances against lthe Republican Party which they are at present disposed to wreak upon its candidates in the PeSi- ldental election. This impalpable but real political drift may be unreasonable illogical and perfectly lunfair toward President Hoover. But there it is It will hereafter enter definitely into all the political forecasts this year. No party managers can leave it out of their reckoning matter how put to il they are to know how to deal with it. All the signs are that we in the midst of a grand National "grouch" and what will out of it politically no Republican leader can predict, though every Republican leader must fear.
 Secretary Mills put the best face possible upor the Republican campaign in Maine, when he asked the voters Why changer" Their answer came or Monday like the sound of many waters. We want a change"

November, and would certainly be so ei-

November and would certainly be so el- +- ected were the election tomorrow.
 The Portland, Maine, Evening News, Republican and Hooverite, Sprnted at the chief City in the State where the political earthquake occurred said
 It may safely be prophesied on the face
 of this showing that the Democrats will
 sweep the Nation in November and put
 Franklin D. Roosevelt in the White House. The New York Evening Post is owned by the Curtis company of Philadelphia which publishes the Philadelphia Ledger, Saturday Evening Post and other Republican daily newspapers and periodicals.

A Wide Choice.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Ohio voters offered varied assortment of candidates and political philosophies in the Pres- dential election this year. Almost every shade of political thought represented by the six tickets that will appear on the ballot.
 There is no reason why any voter Tn ohio can not express himself politically this Fall. Would he keep the country drier than dry? There is the Prohibition Party Would he out-Russia Russia9 There is the Communist Party. Are voters disciples of Karl Marx? There IS the Socialist Party or the Socialst-Labor Party DC they believe with Mir Hoover? There is the Re- publican Party Are they followers of Jefferson Jackson, Cleveland and Wilson? There is the Demo cratic Party.
 Thus there is no reason for Ohioans remaining away from the polls. The ballot this year IS | close approach to the ideal of democracy in tha lit provides ample opportunity for each voter u express himself fully and freely If the voters fai
 so to express themselves the reason must be sough
 in electoral apathy.

CHAPTER IS. A GIRL WITH GRIT

Nan Weare and Ferdinand Fran cis, eager because at least she had found trusting listener ir whom to confide her gnawine fears. He went behind thost rocks where the pool was. It was ten years ago"
 What were you doing?" asked Francis.
 T was sitting on the beach, said Nan with her chin in the air "There was a way down the low cliffs just beyond me. A man came down and went across to the rocks where Jervis was. I didn't see his face. I think he was walking on the cliff and saw Jervis and came down.
 "He went behind the rocks, and | in about five minutes I saw him again. He was going straight | to another part up the cliff, be- fore you came to Croyle Head. He went up that. l saw him half way up it. never saw his face at all" Go on," said Ferdinand. T waited a long time. The tid' began to come up. wondered where Je-vis was. I climbed ur on to the path and looked out to sea, but I couldn't see him. The rocks hid the pool-I want you to remember that-I don't think any one on the cliff could have seen it."
 MT. Francis nodded.
 That's true"
 q got frightened about Jervis. I went down to the pool and he was lying half in and half out of 1t with his head bleeding and the tide coming in. The water was up to his shoulders. If I hadn't come then he would have been drown ed. If you hadn't come later, we both would have been drowned. <
 What are you meaning?" asked Francis. IF That man went behind the rocks and came out again" said Nan rather breathlessly.
 Nov what do you mean by that?"
 You know what I mean-but don't mind saying it. I mean that the man went behind those rocks because he knew that Jer- wis was there and that they could not be seen from the cliff. l mean that he picked up bit oi rock and struck Jervis with it and went away and left him there With the tide coming in"
 "You can't prove that, you know"
 Of course I can't" said Nan But you can be sure of lots o1 things you can't prove"
 That's so. But you didn't sef him strike Jervis-you didn't ever see his face, and now you say he's the Robert Leonard who is witf Miss Carew tonight"
 Nan nodded.
 Let me go on. After you'e got up out of the pool you wen to get help, and I stayed wit Jervis. AS soon as I heard yol coming back, I got away up tn, |cliff path. You see, Cynthia wa down at Croyston with an aunt and we were going back to towl by the afternoon train. got int a most frightful row when I turn ed up at our cottage, dripping we with my dress spoilt and my arn cut. was bundled into dr. things and we caught the train. And afterwards was ill-It be lieve I was very ill-and all tn , time I kept seeing that man, an. Jervis in the pool want you t
 understand how it was that could recognize him ten years af ] terwards. He was printed in m mind"
 Ferdinand saw her eyes darke in a face that had lost all it [ color.
 You say you recognized him,
 he said.
 She gave another of those quic
 mods.
 "Yes-at once. There was pic }. ture in Jervis's study. 1t didn
