A TALE OF TWO CITIES.

There is an interesting and instruc-
tive controversy going on between the
cities of Portland and Bangor, Maine.
1t relates to which one OF them is ''the
drunkenest city on the continent" A
very remarkable discussion, certainly,
to be carried ON between two communi-
ties OF state, which, for more than q
generation has had upon its statute book
a law forbidding the manufacture and
sale OF Intoxicating liquor, and which,
five years ago, by popular majority of
forty-six thousand, adopted an amend
ment to the constitution, making
prohibition part of the funda-
mental law. Yet the controversy is
absolutely serious. and it has brought
out some revelations as to the workings
of prohibition in Maine which are of in
terest to the entire country.
Recently Portland newspaper
charged that Bangor was the drunken
est city on the continent, to which q
Bangor paper responded that Portland
was over-modest and was itself entitled
to that pre-eminence. The fact that
prohibition has never been enforced in
Portland has been affirmed repeatedly
by the most reputable and trustworthy
witnesses. At no time since the prohi-
bition law was enacted has it rot been
possible to obtain liquor at retail
in Maine's principal city, and for years,
according to- unimpeachable testimony,
it has been as easy to get liquor in Port
land rs il prohibition had never been
heard of IN Maine. 1t appears that
about the same state OF affairs has pre-
vailed at Bangor. That city is the
home of Congressman Boutelle, who,
when not discharging the duties of
craftsmanship Mt Washington, edits the
Bangor IPhiq and Courier. Mr.. Bou-
telle has always favored prohibition,
and for this reason the recent confession
by his paper of the complete failure
to enforce the law in the city OF his
home can not be fairly rejected by pro-
hibitionists anywhere. 1t 10 testimony
that is unassailable and conclusive.
According to this most reputable and
competent witness, the constitution and
law of Maine have been openly violated
during all the years since prohibition
was enacted in the city OF his residence.
A large number of liquor saloons have
| been in open operation, and the city has
been pretty much all the time under
the rule Of the saloons, The Wig diao

LINCOLN, july ~.
The attorney general construcs section IL
OF the new banking law as follows
To the Honorable Board of Bank Exam
iners-Geutlomen The most important
question arising at this time. under tho pro.
visions of the banking law, comes under the
provisions of section II; ; and while | believe
that the intention Of the legislature was to
require all corporations, firms or individuals,
doing banking business, to do the business
on its own capital, and not upon borrowed
capital, and for this reason the re-discount-
ing of commercial paper is not considered as
money borrowed under the law, but section
II seems to imply that bank can loan to
any one firm, one corporation or one individ-
ual, sum that shall not be over 90 per cent
of the capital of the banking instit tutions
making the loan
IL may be true that a corporation or a firm
or individual doing a banking business on u
small capital may borrow 20 per cent of tho
capital OF a bank, yet under the provisions
OF section Ia IL is provided that when the
conditions of the bank are such as to jeop-
ardze the interests of the depositors, and
this fact is communicated to the attorney
general, 1T is his duty TO apply for u receiver
and wind up the business of the bank BY
this remedy 1t would seem that there is a
check upon the excessive borrowing of bank
ing institutions
Tho whole matter of examinations has
been placed in the hands of the commits
sioncrs, and it Is for them to determine
whether the business of the bank is con.
Quoted in an unsafe and unauthorized man
ner, such as would make it unsafe and in
eNpedient for the bank to continue Ill busi-
ness.
And am of the opinion that under the
provisions OF section IL, a bank is prohibited
from loaning to any one person, firm or cor
poration, SUN to exceed 20 per cent of its
capital.
And, further, that one corporation, firm or
individual, whether doing n banking business
or not, is prohibited from mourning u labil-
ity to any one bank in any amount exceeding
20 per cent of that banks capital. Respect

having passed they we're reopened, and
as Mr.. Boutelle's paper states it, "the
drunkard-mills of the city are again
running on full time and grinding out
their sickening grist OF inebriatcs."
The testimony OF the editor is sup
ported by that of prominent clergymen,
one Of whom writes that the sale OF IN
toxicants has been uurestrained, and
another that Bangor has acquired an
! unenviable notoriety because OF the
liberty allowed to those who traffic in
| the degradation and ruin of their fell
low-citizcns."
Why is it that the authorities have
been unable to enforce prohib ibition in
these two cities, which together have
not more than half the population OF
Omaha2 Mr.. Boutelle supplies the ex-
| planation. II is the simple one that
the public sentiment OF the city would
not sustain the enforcement of theystate
law. The explanation applies gener-
| ally where prohibition fails in cities, as
almost universally it does fail. On the
other hand the weight .of public senti-
ment sustains high license wherever
that system prevails, and the regula-
tions under it are consequently uni
| formly effective. The tale Of the two
Maine cities is replete with interest as

past six years from the Second, and the lat

is learned that the precedent has been to
elect two members of the board from each of
the three districts, and it is probable that
there will be no departure from it,.
AT any rate the Second district has three
prominent candidates in the parsons of Il. l..
King of Polk, j. L. Haley of Webster, and
