Increased Dryness an the Original
Prohibition State.

full of liquor which were piled upon the whaTves

drink" he added.
For over a week now Maine has been dry
as the proverbal bone all on account of the
Sturgis bill, which passed the legislature. on
Thursday. March is. and which provided for
the strict enforcement of the prohibitory law.
This bill authorized the Governor to appoint
three commissioners in each county to that
the law is properly enforced and so it was not
absolutely necessary for the sheriffs to be any
more strenuous than they had been heretofore.
but most OF them either for political other
reasons decided to carry out the law to the let
ter; consequently dealers and saloonkeepers had
only short time to get their goods out of the
State. OF course, this dryness has given rise
to many funny happenings, and has made Maine
the butt OF many joke.
Many city jewellers are besides themselves
with vexation, because they entirely

politicians, as they call them up there. The
country members are in the majority in the

is all the more lntOleraDle TO many QWelIerS IN

AS soon as Sheriff Pennell began his active
campaign in Portland and all the saloons and
kitchen barrooms were closed, the pocket ped

tradesmen in booze carry pint and half-pint

bottle or drink; they reap fabulous profit.

To find an Arfzonian in this neck Of

1t would be like hitching up The super
