Governor Cobb on Enforcement.

Governor Cobb was given royal re-
ception at the banquet Of the New York
Maine Society, Thursday evening,
where 200 citizens of the great Empire
State, formerly residents of Maine, as
sembled to renew old associations and
recall pleasant memories of their for
mer home. 1t is characteristic of the
sturdy sons of the old Pine Tree State
to remain loyal to her traditions and to
cherish her good name wherever they
may go. That Maine people are fully
appreciated in other states than their
own. was shown by the distinguished
names Of those who make I'D the New
York Maine Society, and who, IN giving
Governor Cobb the enthusiastic WEI
come that was accorded him. paid not
merely a high personal tribute to our
honored Chief Executive, but also
tribute to the grand old State which
he so ably represented. AS a compli-
ment to Names prohibition policy the
Only with Thine Eyes" and, as the
first speaker of the evening, Governor
Cobb very APPLY made the allusion
the text Of his remarks. He said in
part:
.It is the greatest political and
moral evil we have to contend with, to-
day. The laws regarding the sale
of liquors have been put on the
sale of liquors have been put on the
statute books by the people of the
State. While they are laws they must
by kept as laws. 1t is the moral duty
of every one to see that they are OBJ
served. If they wish the law removed,
the power is still in the hands of the
people.
"Shall the people respect the law
because it is a law? Unquestion-
ably every good citizen must.
That is the thing on which de-
ponds the material and moral welfare
of the State. If the people don't like it,
let them take it in hand and repeal IT,
While it is a law let all good citizens
stand shoulder to shoulder and enforce
it."
These were true words braVely SpOk-
en-, and the people of Maine will honor
Governor Cobb for having the courage
to utter them at such a time and in
such n presence. Our people have come
more and more to appreciate the Ster-
ling manhood of our Chief Executive.
Not only has he strong convictions up
on all the great questions that vitality
concern the people of his State, but he
is big enough and brave enough to
stand for them under any and all cir
cumstances. He has never spoken more
truly or to the point than in his able
and eloquent address before the New
York Maine Society The people of
Maine are with him in the firm stand
he takes for the faithful and impartial
enforcement of our prohibitory law.
Such enforcement is necessary to Sc
cure the public respect that is due all
laws: but it will also insure the peace
and security Of the home which is the
basis of Christian civilization. In
vocing his earnest convictions before
his New York audience Governor Cobb
also voiced the convictions of an over
whelming majority Of the people OF
