some difficulty arrested by officer McTigue
and Alderman McHale, on Washington
avenue Saturday, for robbine countryman
of watch and chain, was examined before
Justice Robinson yesterday. The negro
pleaded guilty to taking the watch but says

dollar for the service The countryman
had bought the watch from negro for two
dollars and it is believed it was Nicely who

right with the seller and that an investlga-

called Constable John Hogan who asked
Thomas to give some references, but hard

Prohibition I'm Maine.

To the Editor of the JoURSAL AND COURIER:
| Having occasion to write TO q friend in
Stroudwater Me-, a short time since and
knowing that he had peculiar facilities for
procuring correct information, 1 asked for
some facts to show whether prohibition did
! prohibit" and in reply received the following
statement: Fully one-half of the towns in
! Maine are entirely free of drinking places.
| One can travel forty miles in many district
in Maine and see no sign of drinking or sell
ing liquor The town of Deering, of about
| 1000 inhabitants, near Portland, has not q
| single grog shop in it. What is true of Desring
| is true of many towns. One of the liquor
| deputies, who is not radical prohibltionlst,
| in Portland, admitted to ms very lately that
there was not as much liquor owned by all
the men in Portland who sell in defiance to
| law as is owned and sold by one shop in IL
/ cense city. There is not an open grog shop
| in Portland, and know whereof speak, for
about every day 1 go through the worst
streets"
| 1t pays in more ways than one to enforce
the law. In Cumberland county for the last
six years the receipts in the county treasury
| (from fines etc, over and above all expenses
of enforcing board of prisoners, etc., was
! $58, $40 So. The distilleries and breweries
which we're in operation when the Maine law
was passed have all been converted into
something else, and not one drop of liquor is
manufactured in Maine 1t is said to prove
that prohibition is a failure that there is a
United States tax paid on about 700 places In
| Maine Admitting this-a great many drug
stores which keep alcohol to mix medicines
! only nav this tax And allowing them TO be
all grog shops, it would be only about one
for every town, and it is a fact that so sharp
/ have the United States officers been in
Maine that the first thing man who has q
quart of beer to sell does is to step up and
pay his United States tan. If people would
deal as fairly by the Maine law as by other
laws, remembering that no law fully prevents
the crime against which II is aimed, the
friends of prohibition in Maine would not
have to be continually disputing the false
hoods of the rum sympathizers in regard &c
prohibition. X.

HECKER'S
PERFECT BAKING POWDER.
A FAIR TEST.

To the Editor of the journal & Courier:
Sir:-The contract for supplying
the United States government with
seventy-five thousand (75,OOO1 lbs.
of Baking Powder during the en-
suing year has been awarded to
Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder,
it having been tested by DR.. Ed
ward G. Love, analytical chemist
for the government, and recon-
mended by him for it's excellence
and because it contained a higher
percentage of gas (Which means it
will make lighter bread and bis
cui0 than either the "Royal'' or
the other cream tartar baking
powders which he examined. The
samples analysed by DIR. Love were
furnished by the government COM
missiOners, and were without the
manufacturers label or name,
and designated with a number
known only to the commissioners
1t will thus be seen that when
Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder
8 submitted to an impartial test
it's superiority is acknowledged
and the popular verdict so emphat-
ically expressed in its favor is fully
sustained.
