Political conditions in the state of Maine were overturned on last Monday when the republicans won back the governorship, secured three of the four congressmen, and the legislature on joint ballot will elect i a republican United Stntqs senator. Two years ngo Plaisted.llemocrat, wnsclected governor by a plurality of 8,000. The Taftites believe that the Maine results will serve to keep in line many republicans who were wavering toward the progressiva Ptirty. Congressman Norris, republican can didate for U. S. senator, ha3 issued a statement to the voters of Nebraska In which he rejects tho candidate nnd platform of his party, pledges allegiance to Roosevelt and declares he .willftbe bound by no party. He is therefore a political maverick, and invites the sup port of everybody who has confidence in him. Mr. Norris evidently behoves that the republican mix-up in Nebras ka will result in losing the state to tho democrats, and in assuming tho rolo of nn independent hopes to ride into ollico by the Bupport of democrats who aro opposed to Shallenborgcr. It is prob able, however, that Shallenberger will receive lis heavy republican support as that received by Norris from democratic sources. Local and Personal.
