MAINE BOASTS .800 p-r 'R I NTAGE IN POLITICAL FORECASTS PORTLAND. Me Sept. 8. (UPl "As Maine Goes, So Goes tile Nation"

—sometimes.

On Sept. 14 the Pine Tree state will assume its quadrennial role as national political weathervare, with Republicans and Democrats hoping for a gubernatorial victory that may be converted into presidential campaign ammunition. Only a glimpse at the record is necessary to show why partv leaders strive so hard for success in these September elections first state elections in the country. For while the maxim has not always been valid, the nation has gone as Maine has on a surprising number of occa-

sions.

In eight of the ten presidential elections since 1896, Uie party that elected Maine’s governor in September also elected the president in November. Only exceptions were in 1912 when the presidential election

was complicated by a third party, and in 1916, when Woodrow Wilson was re-elected by a narrow margin over Charles Evans Hughes. In 19:12 Franklin D. Roosevelt did not carry Maine, but nis election in November had been presaged in September when the state elected a Democrat, Louis Jcifersor Brann, as governor. It was shortly after the civil war, when Republicans were scoring repeated victories both in Maine ami in the nation as a whole that the nowfamous adage was coined Cheeking the records from that time to the present reveals that: 1. A Republican victory by a wide margin in the September state elections always is followed by the election of a Republican president two months later. 2. A Democratic victory in September. even when the margin is negligible. is almost always followed by the election of a Democratic president. 3. A Republican victory by a narrow margin in September is generally followed by the election of a Democratic president. GREEN FASTI RE OPENS l OR TWO ARMY ANIMALS MINNEAPOLIS 'UP' A “pri-1 vate” and a proud, dashing officer came to the end of the trail together at Fort Snelling. The "private” was Snelling, a rawboned mule with a 5-year service record He snorted an t pawed the ground impatiently when he heard the bugle sound and watched the columns swing out into the road. He followed them, keeping time to the ilium beats, then he snorted some

more.

The "officer" is Whisky, who join-

ed the army as a wide-eyed colt from the plains of Montana 22 years ago. At first he had a mean disposition; none could mount him. Finally, one day, Capt. William Hazelrigg vaulted into the saddle. From that moment on Whisky changed. He became known as the finest jumper and polo pony in the army. But it's all over for Snelling and Whisky now A long and faithful life deserves a reward and Maj. Gen. David Stone. Fort Snelling commandant issued an order calling for the two faithfuls to be placed on the

pension list.

Their rewards will be the greenest pasture at the Fort, regular servings of the best oats and the rest of their life to be spent in leisure.

CLAIM (.Oil OWNS LAND OROVILLE, Cal.. (UP1—With a claim that the property on which they reside has been “dedicated to God and He has given them orders to remain." members of the Camp of the Saints, a small religious cult, prepared to fight ouster proceedings filed by R. C. Tyler, owner of the property. Brother Joseph, leader of the camp since the death of Brother Istah, issued a letter giving the reasons why the cult refuses to move. The letter said in part: “Now this was publicly dedicated to God on January 24. 1932. It was put in our possesison by the Lord ami we have been given orders by him to hold it until God Almighty moves us away. We are determined to obey the instructions that have been given to us by our Lord and not listen to men."

CHAPTER VIII “IlfHEN did you first convinca tor yoursi la that 1 was the only girl In the world,” Amanda asked ns she walked beside Jeff along a picturesque ti udl not far from the Hangers’ camp. Embarrassed by the silence and the sudden realization that bo was In love, Jetff picked up a stone and burled It through the tall trees which bordered the paid. “The night you made me kiss you,” he admitted shamefacedly at last. “M a d e you! Why I had to fight to get away from you.” she teased. “I was scared to death.” “Yean, I bet,” he grinned. “Well—1 was a little scared,” she admitted brazenly. “But the question is now: What are we going to do about it? Do you thank 111 make a pretty bride?” “1 haven’t asked you yet,” be chuckled, still amazed that ae could be so fascinated by this hoyden. “Ilut I’ve got a ranch in Kimble Couniy. The people up there gave it to me for gettin’ rid 01 Higgins. Maybe. .. He was interrupted by Wahoo, now bale and hearty once more, who came runnim down (he path toward them. “Major Bailey wants to see you,” he panted, jerking his thumb back toward camp. “Important.” Jeff found the Major pacing the floor of bit oliire, a newspap- r 111 his hand. The black headlines read: LATEST EXPLOIT OF "POLKA BANDIT" GANG! Sensational Outlaw Holds Up Third Train In Month! Loot Estimated at $60,000! Bandit Outwits Hangers Pursuit! “What Is it now. Major—more Indians?” inquired Jell as he hurried in. "I think we’ve put them on the Reservation for good.” Bailey handed him the paper. "This is something else—a real manhunt. I’ll leave the whole thing up to you. Handle it any way you see fit. This man whom all the newspapers in the state are calling ’Polka Dot.’ We’re out to get him. One sensational

crime aflor another—he’s making a laughing stock out of all of us—police, sheriffs, rangers, the Pinkertons—everybody. You’re to bring him in dead or alive.” "I didn't reckon on this kind of a job.” Jeff fought to keep his voice calm. “I’d rather not take It.” “Why?” The Major's voice was blun t. “Well. I’ve been working purty hard,” the Hanger began cautiously. “An’ I was sort of hopin' for a vacation—you see—well, that is—your daughter an’ me—that is. Amanda —we’re plannln' on gettin’ married —that Is, if it’s all right with you.” “I see." Tlie Major’s eyes wore inscrutable. “Well, never mind that now. We’ll talk about it after you clean up this job.” “I have to resign, Major.” Jeff had made up his mind -was giving up Amanda and all the rest for the sake of his friendship with Sam. "Here’s tho form then. Sign it.” The officer did not bat an eye.

Jeff realized that he was in love

Slowly Jeff scrawled his signature across the sheet. “McBride,” shouted Bailey when be had finished. Then, as tho other entered the room: “Plact Hawkins under arrest.' Before Hawkins could protest he added: "The Polka Dot Bandit and Sam McGee arc one and the same. Not so long ago you two were outlaws together! You were and still are pals. You’re not hiding anything from me." “How long have you known this?” Jeff was completely taken back. "it came while you were at Kimble County.” The Major held out a “Wanted" card toward the disgraced Ranger. “I don’t mind telling you it was hard for me to believe it. I wanted to give you a real test. I hoped you’d come through. I’m sorry.” The one who took Jeff’s arrest hardest was young Davie. He was disconsolate and even Wahoo’s efforts to cheer him proved useleas.

“What’s the matter with you," the big Hanger demanded one evening when he found the boy crouched down on the corral fence, looking the picture of despair. ’’Nothin’." ”Oh, yes there is . . . you’re thinkin’ ’bout Jeff.” "Well, supposin’ I am!” Davie was close to tears. •‘Listen . . .” Wahoo climhed up beside him on the top bar of the fence. ”JctI ain’t afraid ot that train robber! None of tho Hangers is! 1 know I’m not!” "1 didn’t say . . . you was." "Would you think 1 was a pretty good Hanger if I killed that bandit?’* demanded his friend as he realized this was his opportunily (o prove himself a hero In the eyes of this small, disappointed hero-worship-per. “You mean you’d go after him?” “Would you be proud of me?” “You know l would.” The boy leaped to the ground and fairly danced for joy. “Everybody would bn proud of you! When do you start?” "Now wait a m i n u t e—I e t' s get this thing straight.” Wahoo was stalling for time as he realized that his boast had been only too successful. “This has got 10 be an absolute secret — between you an' me.” “Man to man.” agreed the boy. "Come on though, let's start.” “Let's start?” Wahoo who really never had intended to start at all. was confused. "Say, you ain't goin’.” "Yes 1 am. Unless you let me 1 11 tell the Major and he'll send somebody else and Jeff'li stay In jail for the rest ot his life.” Davie was desperately anxious. "Besides, you'll need help an’ if you get in a tight spot I could go for help.” ”Wal . . .” Wahoo’s simple mind was more and more Intrigued with the idea. Then, firm once more: "But don’t worry about me. I'm not gonna get in any tight spots. An’, for the last time—you’re not comiu’ with me!” “The Major won’t let you go If I tell him,” the boy argued fiercely. “You’re a friend ol Jeff's An' besides, maybe you’ll want to send a message, when you find Sam.” “Hey—wait a minute—say that again!” “I said—If you wanted to send a message back—you wouldn’t nave nobody to take it—less'n you took me along.” “That’s a good idea.” Wahoo scratched his head. “Boy, you got a brain. C'mon, we better get started. You can ride in front of me. But don’t fall off or the rattlers'll eat you. ‘ {To &• continued! .
