carefully avoided controversial sub

Ono of the most popular drum
corps In this parade was that from
La Grande, Ore., a marching mob of1
skeletons with, drum corps and a big
black box draped with tho Inscription-

' Maine, election, today with, a stato
j ment in which- 'he: predicted, 'tas
j Maine goes so goes the ball game."
j "It really seems to. me." he said
I in a statement, "that our Republican
' friends. ought to make the statement
i in regard to the result of the Maine
' election. I certainly am most anxious
j to hear their explanation for the elec
tion of a. Democratic governor and
two Democratlcbngressmen in 'rock-

"I know of no reason why these per
centages should not obtain through
out thn Unltnri fltntps. In mnnv jseo-
I tions we know from the registra
tion figures that these- percentages
will probably be exceeded.
"Assuming that the total vote -will
approximate that of four years ago,
about 35,000,000, theso percentages
would indicate Governor Roosevelt's
election by nearly 10,000,000 majority.

S. Senator George H. Moseg." com
men ting on the Maine voto said:
. "No . thoughtful. Republican, can
overlook the Implications of. the elec
tion In Maine, nor can they be ex
plalned away .toy the customary form
of political alibi.
"Thero wen some, local cross-currents
in rtiefi-Maine election which
were readily discernible .to those of
us from the outside who were cam
paigning there. But this was not
sufficient.
j "The fact is that Republicans are
confronted by opposition well organ
ized and enthusiastic. The answer
to this-Is that we should organize
and develop enthusiasm.
:' "This Is now it he first time Maine
has selected a Democrat governor in
a- presidential; year when a Rcpubll
can wa3 elected president. Therefore
the policy, for Republicans henceforth
is- to remember 1880 and repeat the
job." ........
