LUREc's ALCOHOLIC FERRY,
Thirty Maine Men Get Drinks IN
Spite Of Uncle Sam and
Prohibition.

In Lubec's International alcoholic
ferry the United States customs officials
and the deputy sheriffs who are trying
70 enforce Names prohibitory liquor
law confess that they are up against a
scheme that can't be beaten. says a re-
cent Bangor report to the New York Sun.
Lubec Is a little seacoast town away
down toward the jumping on place. as
Maine people call the easterly tip end Of
the state. and directly opposite. sepa-
rated from IL by a narrow strait. is the
island OF Campobello. a part Of the prov
ince Of New Brunswick.
Recently a wave OF liquor law enforce
ment struck Luhec. and when the town
became really dry certain enterprisIng
Yankees conceived the idea OF establish
ing a saloon over IN campobello and
ferrying customers across and back. II
YVES good scheme. and Il worked
Any man who had the pr.ce Of a pint.
= quart or a lone drink could get free
ferriase. and the business al once began
TO boom The trafic grew and prospered.
until nnally the doriss and leaky sail
boats were superseded by a smart gaso-
iene launch which could go fast and
carry a good many passengers.
Competition arose. and other saloons
were established on the island. with
other ferries TO carry customers to them.
= sea voyage and g chance 10 buy the
hest imported whisky for ten cents a
drink" were the inducements held out.
and all the thirsty men IN that part OF
Maine nocked TO campobello for their
health.
The Lubec white ribboners became
aroused and called upon the customs
ofhcers to put a stop to IT, The customs
oficers investigated. but decided that
they could 10 nothing. Any man had the
right 20 take drink wherever he could
md Il, az home or abroad. they said. and
20 long as the voyagers to campobello
brought back their liquor In them. and
not on them. they were within their
rights.
SO the international alcoholic ferry
eourishes gayly. and all the prohibition
lists can do Is to stand on the shore OF dry
Lubec and wish that some Of the wabbay
carEoes may be spilled on the way home.
