The Maine Law.

Maine FIRST ssionished the world IS IL
passage. and then after the reasons for it
come to be understood and olher Sales
oegsn 10 follow her example she asionish-
ed the world a second tine BY repeating
il. NO--noi Maine bat the politicians.
These, strange as ii may seem. though
representing contemplate minority on
this question, had sufficient cunning 10
keep the people in an abhoued bondage
10 the liqaor traffic for two yeas. But
the experience has not perhaps been too
dearly bought, when we remember the
importance Of having The question selhed
once for all. The people had their first
opportunity 10 vote upon their famous
Maine Law on The Is, Monday in June
when they went for lis re-ensclmeni
"Qlmosf unanimously" SO says The Re
port. They have seen first their State
under the rum trade, then for FIVE years
viihont the rum trade, then for two years
with the rum trade restored. and now they
are prepared for final judgement upon
the merits and dement's of this trade and
the prsciieability Of suPPressing it.
For two years the will of The grea; b.
dy Of the people OF New York hes been
Sc. aside by lhe rum power working
through money anu dePraved appetite
upon The few who by falsehood and bravo
do have ruled when they had no righl to
rule. A half dozen daring bad men
will pass themselves of as representing
the msjoriiy and often rule dissstrOusly
in the name Of a hundred WHO abhor
Them. There were not more than SEQ
men who were engaged in all France in
Staying so many thousands during the
Revolution. The liquor traffic Is doomed
as an immorsliiy and nuisance to be
abaled. How long people will serve IN
der this remorseless and cruel iyrsn, de-
ponds upon themselves. A minority may
BY activity prOtract their bondage bulihey
