The Maine Election.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Cincinnati Enquirer)
 The temper of the Nations voters at the present lime is strikngly illustrated in the results of the Maine election. In electing Democratic Governor and two out of three Democratic Congressman they declared in favor of change and against Prohbi- ton. In burying a proposal to increase gasoline they indicated that the limit of their patience and purses has been reached in the matter of taxation.
 Many factors united to bring about the election of the fourth Democratic Governor in Maine since the Civil War, but the most important of these must have been economic conditions and dissatisfaction with Republican efforts to remedy those conditions. It is true that the Democratic candidate wet, but the Republican candidate not bone dry
 Prohibition played more important part in the Congressional races, where the wet and dry issue clear cut and sharply defined. The fact that two of the three Congressmen from Maine, the original Prohibition State, will be wet is not with out significance.
 Republicans cannot deny that the record of the National Administration figured in the election in view of the fact that Ogden Mills Secretary of the Treasurer, campaigned the State pleading with the voters to uphold Hoover During the remainder of the Presidential campaign Republicans will be kept busy attempting to convince the electorate that there exceptions to all rules including the one which holds that "as Maine goes, so goes the Nation" This is a dscredited legend, of course but the Maine vote is an indication of the present temper of the voters
 Naturally Democrats will be heartened by the decision in Maine; it is a good omen. But they will do well not to rest their if they expect to reach the port of victory. They must remember that elections in November.

CHAPTER 10. TERRIBLE SUSPENSE

Nan knew very well what would happen to Jervis Weare's property if he died without children. Ev- erything would go to Rosamund Carew-Rosamund Veroncia Leon- ard Carew. She had typed old Ambrose Carew's will and she re- membered it's provisions. If Jer- wis wasn't married within three months and a day of his grand fathers death, everything went to Rosamund And if Jervis died without leaving a child everything went to Rosamund
 Rosamund Veroncia Leonard Ca- rev. Nan was unshaken in her conviction that she had heard Robert Leonard arranging for an accident to happen to Jervis. Per haps Rosamund didn't know. She had gone on into the house, and Robert Leonard had come back to speak to the driver. A faint cold shudder ran over Nan. Rosamund Carew couldn't know.
 She began to walk and came out of the ferry house. What was she going to do next?
 There wasn't anything for her to do. The affair had passed out

WISCONSIN G. o. P. DEFEATS THE LA
 FOLLETTES.

Without more particulars comment on the Wis consn Republican primary is not of much value. But few things have become evident. The senti- ment that gave the Republican delegation Of that State to President Hoover in the Republican Ma tional Convention is still active. There are evidently a lot of Republicans in the Badger State who dc not believe their party should accept leadership from those who not Republicans-who are not supporting the candidate of their party for Presi- dent.
 What the effect of the defeat of the La Follettes and the gaining of party control by the conservative element of the Republican Party will be on the general election must be appraised later If means the La Toilette element will vote Democratic it would turn the State over to that party and give the electoral votes to Gov. Roosevelt. It is too soon to make predictions to that.
 That the La Follettes have received very important setback there is no doubt. They have lost the Republican organization in Wisconsin That may not amount to much right now but it might count lot in future elections.

Professor Piccards record ascent is not likely to go long unchallenged. Next time the most formid-
 able competition may not from the balloon
 but from the airplane "stratosphere airplane"
 has recently been built in France by the Farman
 Company, and this craft, which is designed to reach
 height of 600O0 feet is going through it's tests There has also been a report that the firm of Junkers at work on similar machine The
 object of these experiments however is not scientific research nor is it record breaking, though new knowledge may be gained and a new record set up by the way. The object is to test the theory that at great distance above the earth airplane could travel, owing to reduced resistance and other factors, at extremely high speeds. It is even held that trade winds of immense force exist at a great height, of which the airplane of the future might be able to take advantage The Farman machine is designed for extreme high-attude flying The cabin is completely enclosed; air will be pumped in from outside, and oxygen may also be taken to provide a breathable atmosphere. The highly supercharged engine is intended to reach its greatest efficiency in the tenuous upper air. This "stratoplane" is experiment which all inter- ested in the future of aviation will watch with the greatest interest There are, of couse great diff culties in the way of success. It may be that the trade winds do not exist, that the weight of oxygen and equipment necessary will make long distance high-flying impossible or unproftable But if this first tentative effort at exploration succeeds we shall know whether the upper atmosphere is
 likely to contribute to the future development of serious flying.

ELECTION SEEMS CERTAIN.

The New York Board of Elections has decided that there must be election November for the office of Mayor of New York City to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of former Mayor Walker. The matter will probably be tested in the courts, but the New York papers seem to believe that the Board of Elections knows what it is doing
 Whether or not former Mayor Walker will get the Tammany nomination is not known. The action of Mayor Mckee in cutting ssoOoO,Ooo more from the budget has caused boom for him. Bronx Borough which has had close alliance with Tam many longer than any other Borough will go down the line for Mckee. Democratic Leader McCooey of Brooklyn, whose support of Walker would be abso- lutely necessary to get the nomination for him even though Tammany decided that way has disclosed that he is not committed.
 movement is foot to give Mckee an inde- pendent Democratic and Republican fusion nom- inaton in case Walker is nominated by the regular Democrats It is said Mckee has declared that he will not accept a fusion nomination unless Walker is named by Tammany If some other candidate is decided upon Mckee will support him. It is re- ported that McCooey is inclined to favor the nom nation of a Brooklyn man for the position.
 The nomination of candidate for Mayor neet not be certified until October 15 and Leader Curr of Tammany said that it may be that late befor the nomination is decided upon. The New Yor Times thinks the longer the selection is delaye the less will be the chance of nominating Walker.
 The Republican Herald Tribune and the Demo cratic Times think it possible that the deman for Mayor Mckee, on account of his budget slash ing. may be so great that Tammany will not dar turn him down.

 She began to think about the evening. If She need not ke frightened about Jervis, how fright fully exciting, it would be to look forward to dining at the Luxe with Ferdinand Francis. How extraor- dinary to meet him after all these yearsl She had always wondered whether she would know him again
 She got into bus and sat there thinking how stronge life was and how interesting. Ten years ago Ferdinand Francis, walking on Croyston rocks, had chanced on an unconscious young man and a frantic child of twelve. She shut her eyes and saw the rocks, the low grey sky and the sea coming up, coming nearer with its fright ful irresistible force. It was pie ture that had never faded. Like the scar on her arm, it no longer hurt.
 Then Ferdinand and the high, kind voice with its unfamiliar &C., cent going right on through her half consciousness. She was mot terribly pleased to have met him again. But not for the world was he ever to guess that they were meeting again. A grown-up Mrs. Weare couldn't possibly evoke any memory of the half-drowned child Of ten years ago.

On Decreeing a Five-Day Week.
(NeW York TimeS.)

Signor Mussolini, in turning to the five-day week as a cure for unemployed may at first sight to be in the odd company of the American Federa- tion of Labor, which entertains the views. But people who believe that the only way to get things done is by the dictatorship method will lose no time in pointing out that Mussolini can put the five-day week into effect overnight, whereas the A. F. of L. will need years to carry it's point if it succeeds at all
 It is an argument by no means all on Musso- lni's side It may be an advantage to enact over night badly needed tax law badly needed slash in expenditures. But to enact the five-day week overnight is likely to prove far worse method than to introduce it gradually and slowly. In the one case you jar an established economic system and perhaps lose more than you gain. The slower method avoids the danger of disruption and chaos Soviet Russia introduced overnight, the con tinuous fve-day work week and learned that it undermined discipline, destroyed responsibility and wore out costly machinery The continuous work week has been abandoned. Russia has also found
 that the attempt to abolish religion overnight did
 not yield the expected results.

 She gave MT. Pages number, and then had a nervous reaction. Suppose Villiers didn't answer the telephone. She heard the click of the receiver and the voice of Miss Villiers.

 "Oh, Villiers--don't tell anyone I rang up. only wanted to know if MT. Weare had arrived"
 "Just come, dear. '. Yes, that's all right"

plank in the Republican platform
for early payment of the soldiers
bonus will be "Smacked right
down." Representative Royal

declared today.
johnson, who expects to be a
member Of the resolutions com.
mittee, gave warning he would
block any move to inject the
bonus question in the platform

johnson led the fight in the

ment of the bonus and thinks
the veterans are getting too much
as it is. He said:
"It'S ridiculous to think we
could pay out $4,000, 100000 to
these men at this time. We
should take about 100000, 900
from the veterans payments"
