Now ~ a Good Time to Try.

The friends of temperance and the officials
of the law have recently taken vigorous and
successful elton in Winthrop to break I'm
the liquor selling of one PInkham, who had
tor long time secretly carried on his nefari-
Gus business against the morality and best
interests of the community. In Hallowell
the citizens. headed by Governor-elect Bod
well, are demanding an effective enforce
ment of the law against the dram shops 1t
is to DE hoped that the action of the citizens
of Winthrop snd Hallowell will become con-
tagious on the citizens and officials of Au
gu,t,. Public sentiment, the language of the
state constitution, and the provisions of the
statutes are strong, explicit, and admit of no
compromise nor delay Much has been done
to enforce prohibition in the State and Ken
nebec does not wish to be behind any other
county in this regard. If sharp eyes and
energetic resolution can do more to put an
end to a prolific source of misery, pauperism
and crime, the warm approval of all good cit
izens is certain.
