A 1912 Maine ballot notes the measures to be decided by voters across the state on September 9. The concise list outlines proposed constitutional amendments and policy questions affecting governance and public affairs.
A letter to the editor discusses state finances and party claims. It cites a joint legislative committee report detailing unpaid bills and a $23 500 000 temporary loan, arguing the Plaisted administration must provide over $1 000 000 to cover liabilities from Fernald’s term.
The letter cites Georg Plaisted’s administration and contrasts it with Fernald era spending. It accuses garbled reports in Two Years of Democracy, questions hospital funding figures, and claims higher state taxes under Plaisted. It urges Bath voters to back the Republican ticket and Edward C. Burleigh for U S Senate.
