Causes Of Maire's Recent Murders.

This month the State of Maine has
made the uncomfortably remarkable
record of four murders in five days.
The familiar explanation. Rum did
it," won't do in this case. The sale of
any kind of "rum'-even a glass of
light beer with the bubbles on ito Il
thirsting citizen is statutory offehse
in the State of Maine. entailing pains
and penalties.-Hartford Courant.
1t so happens that Intoxicating
liquors did not figure very prominent
~ in the four murders mentioned. In
one of them the parties had been
drinking cider, but it does not appear
that ANYBODY was drunk, and jealousy
was undoubtedly the chief cause of the
crime. Later developments make it
seem possible that there was gen.
eral neighbOrhOod conspiracy to dc
away with the murdered man who was
generally disliked. In the Greene
murder, which was followed by a
suicide. the crime was the result of an
ungovernable temper aroused by
breakfast table quarrel. None of the
parties had been drinking. In the
Waterford murder. which was also
followed by a suicide, the crime was
wholly due to husbands jealousy.
None of the parties had been drinking.
The murder at Falmouth is the only
mysterious affair of the four. The
case against the suspected murderer Is
being worked up on the theory that ne
committed the crime as an act of re-
venge. The only way that rum fig
ures in the crimes is in the fact that
the murdered man had formerly been a
liquor spotter. Thus not one of the
four murders in Maine. last week, was
committed as the direct result OF
drunkenness. In the West Athens
case, to be sure, there had been drink
ing, but other factors were undoubted-
" the chief causes of the crime. Rum
causes q great share of the crimes and
sorrow and suffering in the world and
is directly responsible for Il great part
of the murders committed. but those
who enjoy ridio uling the Maine pro-
hibitory law fail to get the text they
hope for out of the recent Maine MUIR
