a new Interest was Injected Into the
situation, alieady raised to tho high
est p'lnt of excitement, by tho effort
in. i co Induce Kllhu Hoot, secretary
nf .to. to penult tho use of his name.
TI- came after It was announced al
most definitely that Mr Hoot was by

inmost cuiitldeucu. Nor did lie consid

U Is known that he smithl the counsel

bands In tho (tallery played "Tlio Star

ped when the band atopped playing,
but was enthusiastically renewed when
n man In the gallery called for "three
cheers for William n, Tnft" and again
when a New York county delegate pro
posed further cheer for "the next
president ef the United Statet."
Roet at Presiding Officer.
Mr. Root will continue to preside
over the convention. He Is an Ideal
providing officer and evidently held by
the men who make up the contention
In a regard which borders upon affec
tion. UU voice la not particularly
strong and seems even husky, but It
la heard Id every corner ot the hall,
and bis commands nl presiding officer
aro Instantly obeyed. That the con
vention would welcome an opportunity
to make him Its ehalce for governor
was remarked In many Quarters, and
that the anti-Hughes allies had hope
of prevailing upon him to yield to
their Importunities was made plain In
many ways, not lemt when the cheer
ing which followed the close of his
speech was led by State Committee
man William names, Jr., chief of tho
nntl-IIUKhee leaden.
Mr. Itoosevclt's position on the ques
tion of tho rcnorelnation of (lovornnr
Hughes was set forth In an official
statement. The statemont follows:
"The president has been In communi
cation with Secretary Root nnd Con
gressman Cocks In reference to the
governorship situation nud has author
Ins! them to state that, while ho hns
no Intention of dictating, yet to all his
friends w ho have spoken to him on tho
matter he has said In tiie strongest
possible terms that he favored tlio re
nomination, of liovcnmr Hughes."

"A few plain, simple sentences from

ELECTION IN MAINE.
Republicans Win, but Plurality Showt
Falling Off.
Portland, Me., Sept. 1.", Although
the Hepuhllcatis came off victorious in
the state election, Pert M. Pernalil of
Poland being choen Rowruor over
Obadiah Gardner of Hocklmul, the
Democrats bad the satisfaction of see
ing the normal Hepnhllcan plurality
cut to less than lo.uti votes for the
first time In a presidential year for
more than a quarter of n century.
All four Hcpuhllciiu candidates for
concrrcss were elected, mid for state
auditor Charles P. Hatch of Augusta,
Republican, defeated his opponent.
The result as far as known shows a
Republican loss of 4 per cent mid a
Democratic gain of 32 per cent. On
this bnsis tbe Republican plurality In
the state Is estimated at about S.iss).
Tbo result, which was much closer
than nny of the Republican leaders
bad anticipated, showed not only the
warmth of tbo contest, but tbe popu
larity of Mr. Gardner throughout the
state. In tho cities us well us in the
little rural districts, whore his fame
as the head of the state grange, pa
trons of Industry, proved a groat vote
gainer.
The Republicans were on the de
fensive throughout the campaign, seek
ing to hold the state by the usual pit),
rallly by answering the various Demo
cratic arguments, which were mainly
for resubmission of the prohibitory
law, taxation of the wild lands and
reform In administrative Method Hut
little was said nf national Issues, al
though the Republicans tlii'imiji out
side speakers sought nt veil Inns points
to bring such sulijis tn to the attention
of the paople.
Tbe vote was the heaviest since
lfviS, running well up to 14ii,in. The
gain, however, was mainly by thn
Democrats, the party xnte increaslin;
more tbun la.ism oer Hint of linn,
while the Republican vnte fell off about
a.rsx).
The two patties split even In the
twenty cities, euell c.litllllllg ten. The
voting wns particulaily heaxy In the
rural districts, whore the Democrats
made grcut gains.

The County Fair.
An a general preposition then? Is at
least one ndvantage which tho Amer
ican county fair has over all similar
functions In other lands. It Is held
t a tlmo of year when It is n delight
Id this country to be nllve. For many
reasons the county fair Is perhaps tho
most attractive of our national Insti
tutions. Bo long os It remains true,
ss has been sahl, that the typical
American is either a former, a farm
er's son or a farmer's grandson so
long must the county fair, which Is
our harvest home, remain tho most
significant of our social Institutions.
The county fair brings about the
chlof annual reunion of tho whole body
of people In n district, giving busy
neighbors a chance to brush up In ac
quaintance nnd compare notes on prog
ress and also on problems. There are
numerous side features, such as tho
flirting and tlio courting of tho young
folks, tho shows from town and tho
candidates looking for votes tho while
they talk shop to tho farmer. How
ever, thl ail belongs to life, es It
averages and mokes everybody feel
kin to everybody else. A fair wholly
devoted to the scientific sldo of agri
culture would be nnothcr hint to the
boys to leave tho farm or die of the
blues. For another thing, the county
fair places honest nature on exhibi
tion and puts up a show that Is really
entertaining In spite nf Its plain, mut
ter of fact character. In those days of
shnm nnd pretenso and overdone sen
sationalism the genuine thing Is n nov
elty, and that nionc makes It Interest
ing. Long may the ts'st traditions of
tho American county fair survive as
an uplifting force for the whole commonwealth!
Opening New Coal Illn.
American enterprise Is now at work
upon rullnsuls to run Into n section of
British Columbia where a now coal
bin has been discovered, comprising
an area of 80,000 square miles. A

able by the time tbe roads aro ready
to transport It.
Alberta Is the center of this now coal
lielt, which lies not far from tho Unit
ed States boundary In the cxtrcmo

now burn all tho coal they can pay
for without shivering at tho thought
that a few more winters will exhaust
our national bin, which, after nil, has
done very well In keeping Jack Frojt
