CAMPAIGN FROM DEMOCRATS Long Branch, N. J Sept. 14. The Maine election has started a boom In contributions to the democratlo cam paign fund and, according to guiding heads of the campaign, has given the democrats an awakening which was "Just what the party needed at this time." President Wilson found ample evi dence of this awakening when he re sumed work at Shadow Lawn today. This opinion is shared by campaign leaders, Chairman Vunco McCormlck, Postmaster General Burleson, Secre tary McAdoo and Secretary Tumulty, who are holding frequent conferences by long distance telephone and direct. During the last two days popular subscriptions to the campaign fund, ranging from one to one hundred dol lars; have totalled $8,000 a day. The president's plans for personal participation In the campaign are now uncertain because of his elster's seri ous Illness. His scheduled trip to St. Louis September 20 may have to Ibe called off. lie probably will be able to speak In Baltimore September 24, tint his plan practically to open the democratic campaign In New Mexico at Albuquerque later In September may have to be called off. As this was the only long trip planned boforo the election, Its cancellation probalbly would sound tho death knoll of any Invasion of the west by the president. Speeches will bo confined for the most part to addresses here at Shadow Lawn, delivered to delega tions which come to flee him. He also plans to make a fow speoches In the east, In cities to lx selected by the campaign committee. PORTLAND MARKETS Ltot That Haar.
