the pious farmers OF Maine, in contem-
plating their orchards heavily laden
with apples that may provoke DIS
cord, feel that they will soon be
put under new and strong temp
tation TO violate the law. For the first
time Prohibition ia brought home to them
as species of property confscation. As
long as confscation was confined to dis
tillers and brewers they regarded 1T with
complacency. But they look upon the
matter in quite different light when the
apSle orchards are assailed by aquarium
rage, and the spirit of liberty rises in them
in defense of their rights Of property.
Their dearly cherished cider is in danger,
and they are preparing for its rescue from
the Aroostook to the Androscoggin. SO
strong tide of interest and sentiment has
set in against Prohibition that its early
repeal is predicted with confidence; and
when Prohibition shall fail in Maine,
where else in the country may its advocates
hope to make an effective stand?

Failure of Prohibition In Maine.

While New York, Pennsylvania and
some other States are bstrsying DISPOSE
ton to surrender to aquarium fsnaticism,
there are manifest signs that prohibition is
at last breaking down in Maine, the very
State in which it originated. 1t is no
torious fact that, although prohibition has
never prohibited in Maine, or the use of
liquors for drink been seriously dimin-
ished, the people of that State have gone
ON year after year sharpening the legisla-
tive provisions for its enforcement. With
each enactment to punish the sale Of liq-
ours rs crime the failure of the policy has
become more conspicuous, until at length
the people are demanding its repeal and
the substitution of practicable system OF
high license.
In Portland, Bangor, Augusta, Bath,
Belfast, EAstport and all the other consid-
cradle towns of the State the sale of liz.
uors is more or less open. The liquor in
terest exercises q political influence in
those towns that paralyzethe efforts to en-
force the law. It is estimated that there
are not less than 2, 500 places in the State
in which liquors are sold, and OF these
about 500 pay license fees to the United
States Government. As the possession OF
\ United States license is official proof Of q
purpose to violate the State laws, the pru-
n. N0r N
safety as well as of economy, usually con-
cludes to violate the Federal license law as
we'll. Hence the great difference between
the number of United States licenses to
sell LIQUOR in Maine and the number OF
places in which liquors are sold.
The taxpayers OF Maine are calculating
the loss to the public revenues under
prohibitory SYSTEM that has practically
Jailed 10 restrain the sale and consumption
of intoxicating liquors. Apart from this
financial consideration, they witness the
demoralizipg effects resulting from secret
habits of drinking as well as from the hs-
bitual violation of the laws. Under q
High License system, honestly and Impair
italy administered, effective restraint
would be put upon the abuses ofthe hq-
uor traffic, while a large public revenue
would be secured ut the same time.
But the worst blow to Prohibition IN
Maine is the recent provision of law which
puts cider, aloag with whisky and beer,
under the ban Ofaquarianism. The produc-
ton of apples has long been an important
source of revenue in that State, and the
farmers look with dismay on the determi-
nation of the Prohibitionists to forbid ss
crime the making and sale of cider Tor
drink Recognizing the pomonic cause OF
the first temptation, when
