MAINE LIQUOR LAW IN INDIANA.-This
law goes into effect to-day, and we will soon
see its practical effects Many persons, mis-
taking the law, thinking that they could not
purchase liquor out of the State and bring it
here; and acting under that impression, have
laid in large supplies of liquor Some per-
sons have made business of hauling liquors
around the county and selling it in large
quantities, and have supplied the county so
abundantly that it will require more than the
usual consumption to exhaust it in two years
In many neighhorhoods, from report, there
never was, by halt, as much liquor in the
county before as has been brought in since
the passage of the Maine Law. The indica-
tons are that the old side-board system of
drinking at home is to be revived, and that
the law Will not diminish the quantity of
liquor usually consumed but only change
the mode of drinking from the grocery to
the fireside. The wisdom of enacting such a
law will soon be tested. If it has the effect
to diminish the use of liquors, check dissipa-
ton, drunkenness, vice and crime, which is
claimed by Its advocates, it will doubtlessly
be regarded good law that will meet with
public favor; but if it does not to a considera-
bic extent effect this, we may look for public
opinion to set hard against t.-Bro,onstolon
Democrat.
