Maine Goes Wet! 1
And Democratic
Democratic candidates for gov
ernor and other state offices and
one or two congressmen were elect
!u over their Republican opponents
in Maine Tuesday. Maine has for
nearly a century been thoroughly
Republican and the victory of the
Democrats is taken a* an endorse-!
ment of the Roosevelt administra- !
tion However, U. S.Senator Hale
was re-elected. He is an old fine
Republican.
More surprising to some observ
ers thar. the Democratic victory
was the repeal of the state prohi- 1
bition laws. Maine was bone dry !
L’s years before national prohibi-!
and was the bulwark of the j
dries. Now the legisla- !
