MAINE REPUBLISH ~ ~~ ey 8ma PLUMUTy All Four of the Congressmen Are of the Same Faith. . DEMOCRATS GAIN 32 PER CENT Republican Congressmen Elected? Resubmission of Liquor Question the Big Issue?Contests in Sev? eral Counties Were Hot. Portland, Me.?Four hours after the polls closed on the hardest-fought Campaign in the history of Maine politics the Republicans could claim a victory in the Maine election, and feert M. Fernald, of Poland, was sleeted Governor over Obadiah Gardner, of Rockland. The figures estimated will give him a plurality of about 8000, the smallest Republican plurality in a Presidential year in twenty-five years. The main question before the voters of the State was also won by ihe Republicans. This dealt with the resubmission of the liquor question lo the people. There is now a prohibition law on the books, and the Democrats wished to have the question resubmitted to the people. The vote was the heaviest since 188S, running well up to 140,000. The gain3, however, were mainly by the Democrats, the party vote increasing more than 13,000 over that of 1904, while the Republican vote fell off about 2500. Contests in the several counties of the State were hot and closely fought, out the Republicans won out in nearly every instance. In Cumberland County, in which Portland is situated and where the contest has been fierce, the Democrats, who have been in ? power for four years, were overthrown. The four Republican Congressmen elected are: First District?Amos L. Allen, of Altred; Second District? jonn tr. owasey, ui t_.ani.uu; iniru District? Edwin C. Burleigh, of Augusta, and Fourth District?Frank E. Guernsey, of Dover. Messrs. Guernsey and Swasey will be new men in Congress. Knox County, the home of Obadiah Gardner, the Democratic nominee, gave a Democratic majority of 1200, although he was unable to carry his own ward, the only ward in the city of Rockland which went Republican. No United States Senator will be elected by the next Legislature, as the term of Senator Hale does not 2xpi.re until 1911. Augusta, the home of the Republican State machine, was carried by the Republicans, after having been Democratic for three years, while Waterville, the home of William T. Haines, who was a candidate for the Gubernatorial nfhnin^tion against Mr. Fernald, the Republican candidate, went Democratic by a majority of 423. Mr. Haines was the pronounced candidate of the Republicans who favored the resubmission of toe prohibitory liquor law to the people. Mr. Fernald, the successful candidate, is a corn packer, and has served (n both branches of the Legislature. ' Taft is Not Disappointed. Cincinnati, Ohio. ? The result of the election in Maine was not disappointing to Judge Taft. although it looks like a serious matter to the Republicans. Mr. Taft said: "The result in Maine Is in line with my information from that State. I was informed that it would run about 6000 to 7000. The f-esult has absolutely no national bearing. The fight was made on local issues entirely, and national issues had - *, no part in the election." Bryan Elated Over Maine. Baltimore, Md.?Upon his ralurn from the Fifth Regiment Armory, where he delivered a political speech, "William J. Bryan was elated over the great Democratic gain and said: "I am very much gratified at the Teturns from Maine. They indicate that the trend toward the Democratic party extends over the whole conntry; they encourage Democrats to be, lieve that victory in November is certain." _ 50.000 IN THE CANAL ZONE.

FORT: Infernal Machine Addressed to Him at Sea Girt, Suspicions Aroused and Package Opened in Philadelphia After the Governor's Permission. Sea Girt, N. J.?An attempt to assassinate Governor Fort, of New Jersey, has been thwarted by the watchfulness of postoffice employes, who discovered an infernal machine addressed to the Governor in the mails. The package was a cleverly contrived combination of powder, bullets and matches, which had been so arranged that opening it in the ordinary way . certainly would have caused an explosion. Had it been received by the Governor and opened hurriedly, without any suspicion of what it contained, there is little doubt it might have killed him. That the package was intercepted before it had reached its destination was due to the vigilance of the postal officers who have scanned the Governor's mail with unusual care since the executive's recent crusade against violation of the law at Atlantic City. The attitude taken by the Governor? when he directed that the excise and [ a J m i 1 o y* IqtoO of tllQ COflQlrlo rPflnff* VlA I iJIUiiiai jana uv vuv vmw. ? .w strictly enforced, threatening to order out the militia if necessary to that end, aroused great resentment in some quarters. It was to guard the Governor as much as possible from any annoyance arising from that affair that the unusual watch was put on his mail. Several days ago, when a package of somewhat unusual shape was found to bear insufficient postage, it ! was taken by a clerk to one of the postal inspectors. The inspector asked for permission to open it without forwarding it to its destination. The permission was given at once. Exercising the greatest care the inspector and his assistants removed the wrappings from the package, to find confirmation of their suspicions. It was a real infernal machine, crude, but so cleverly constructed that it was capable of doing tremendous damage. It contained a quantity of powder and bullets, with matches so arranged that a hurried opening of the package would have set off the powder and hurled the bullets in all directions.

It can be finished with ornamental laps at the darts or with genuine pockets as liked and is adapted to all suiting materials, while also it. makesan excellent model for the light weight separate wrap.

Sashes. Sashes are used effectively on the new gowns. They serve the purpose of girdles, hip yokes and ohoulderettes. A wide, handsomely embroidered scarf of old pink chiffon ribbon was worn one day around the shoulders in directoire fashion; the next time it made its appearance it was a hip scarf, knotted a little at one side to fall in long and limp lines to the | very hem of the gown, while on an other occasion it was worn around | ! the waist as a high and much folded girdle, with two loops and ends fall!

[ Lorgnette Chains. i The new fan or lorgnette chains are exceedingly pretty, and one design in French gilt, set with groups of stones, or mock jewels, such as coral, jade, topaz and lapis lazuli is particularly effective. At the same price there are long, slender chains of gilt and gun metal ornamented with rhinestoncs set so that they look like a string of dewdrops. v ' V I v. % i Embroidery For Lingerie.

We note, v'?5 too, that some of the short corselet j,:. skirts show the bolero. Seven Gored Skirt. / : , The seven gored skirt Is always a . *; graceful and attractive one, and this ; model has the advantage of including the very latest features of the sea-son. It is laid in two pleats at eachy seam, which provide just sufficient , fulness for grace, and it can be closed either at the left of the front with or- , namental buttons or invisibly at the />'<! back as liked. It is adapted to linep, to serge, to mohair, to all skirting and to all suiting materials, but as illustrated is made of Panama cloth finished with tailor stitching. The skirt Is cut in seven gores. The pleats effectually conceal the seams , and are stitched flat well below the hips. It can be made either in walking length, adapted to the street, or in the graceful round one that is so , well liked for indoor wear. The quantity of material required ' for the medium size is nine and three-quarter yards twenty-four, orj twenty-seven, nve ana one-nair yaraa forty-four or fifty-two inches wide. Girdles.
