EX-MAYOR HERSEY'S HOUSE
AND LIBRARY BURNED

Fire last evening destroyed the
farm buildings on the Paine farm on
the East Hill owned by former Mayor
Harvry Hersey. The total loss is esti-

The fire started in the main build

ardent spirits obtained Ia these retail
liquor saloons than to any other source
While therefore on ordinary tues-
tions we heartily endorse their refer
ence 20 the people for their Sanctio i,
we are opposed to such reference Of
questions which have already been es-
tablished on right moral Foundations
We believe the increasing clamor
for License and Local Option now ag-
itating the public mind is largely
due to the corrupt penal non enforce.
ment Of the law, by the officials ,ol-
emnly sworn TO its execution, Father
than to any real demand for change,
Since our town agency system is
capable of heing. and in some notable
instances is worked in the interests Of
the town and state treasures, we le.
mand its revision in such manner as
shall eliminate TO minimum the pro.
tit feature.
We pledge ourselves, il elected IT,
office to the faithful enforcement Of
our state liou0r law as it exists and
to its Strengthening wherever and
Whenever it needs such revision
We therefore, invite all citizens re-
gardless of previous party affil atoms,
who desire the maintenance OF the
prohibitory law to unite with Us in
the election to Office OF men who are
pledged TO it's enforcement
While, therefore, approving refer
endum on ordinary questions, We de-
cline to being party to securing one
on this question. First: Because
licensing any evil is wrong in prln-
ciple aad powerless as a remedy" We
have the authority Of the U 5. Su.
preme court that retail liquor saloons
produce more misery and crime than
any other cause, and all other reliab e
official testimony is to the same effect.
Second: The prohibi ory principle in
law is constitutional and right, and
been 50 declared by the U. S. Supreme
court and gives better results than
any form of license. Recorded facts
show this universally. Third tbs
referendum clamJr was started and
pushed by the enemies OF the law, as
an entering wedge to its overthrow.
because they had failed t. get the
legislature to pass license law, and
we can see n reason why the friends
of prohibition should help its enemies
in their work. This anxiety for a
referendum dId not manifest itself
until our license friends failed IN the
Legislature. We viii test their yaun-
ted sincerity for the will Of the peo-
ple' by asking for re-,uumission
clause at the end of short term if tae
people adopt the law at trst.
