[1852-53. Of John Davis's term, and to elect three or four members of Congress. Besides the pro-slavery position of the national Dem- ocratic party, certain local difficulties some blunders of the State administration, Governor Boutwell's appointment of Gush- ing as judge of the Supreme Court, and most of all the passage of the Maine Liquor law at the last session, a movement in which the Free Soilers took the lead proved disastrous to the coalition. Even these disadvantages might not have been... fatal if Robert Rantoul, Jr. , had lived, whose name as candidate for senator to be chosen by the next Legislature would have given vigor and inspiration to the Free Soilers and liberal Democrats. As it was, the Legislature was lost by about ten majority, and with it the State offices and senator, although Horace Mann as candidate for governor received nine thousand more votes than were given to Hale for President. The Maine Law defeated the coalition candidates for the Legislature in the large towns ; and that measure, many times since a fatal stumbling-block, would have wrecked the coalition spite of even greater efforts to save it.
