CONSTITUTIONAL PROHIBITION.

What is 10 be gained by Constitutional
Prohibition in Msinei The drst impor-
tant point to be gained is this, that 1t viii
take the question entirely out Of politics.
For many years the Republican party has
endorsed prohibitory legislation. Until
recently, the Democratic party in Maine
has sntagOnized such action. Since the
reform movement restored so many men
70 lives OF temperance, sud created wide
spread sentiment in favor OF suppressing
the liquor traffic, the Democratic conven-
tious have failed 10 SntsgOnize prohibition
in State conventions. In rural sections
OF the State there are now many temper
snce men who belong 10 the several politi-
cal parties. Democrats and Greenbsckers
who are anxious 20 have our prohibitory
laws enforced, do not like 10 see the Re
publjcaus take All the credit for prohibition
in Maine. sud they dislike as well TO see
their own parties practically opposed 10
enforcement So they wish the question
of prohibition to be settled once for sll,
and taken from the field Of politics Now
the time has come when all temperance
men can unite and vote on the issue, ire
spective OF party connection. The CUES
ton pure and simple will De presented 10
the people, and their votes either for or
ssaiuSt the amendment, vile be poll OF
the state on this important matter. II

constitutional provision, and the whole

any Danger that some party, by exciting

such aotion will have been made impOsSi-
Bile bv the fact that prohibition is no long

dinner awaiting them at the Elm House.
The rain was so severe that no parade was
attempted Wednesday afternoon. The

The beautiful new hall In Norway was
crowded. The visitors from Pejepscot
say that 1t was one of the most brilliant
occasions In which the encampment ever
participated. At intermission a line Of
march Was taken to the Elm House II

yeritable feast OF good things. Previous
