The Portland Express publishes figures
showing that during the months since
strict enforcement of the prohibitory law
was inaugurated in Cumberland County,
the number of arrests for drunkenness
has fallen off over one-third, as COM
pared with the same months of last year.
And yet Sheriff Pennell says that the
strict enforcement which he has put into
practice has done the cause of temper
ance no good, unless it has educated peo-
pie up to the point of demanding the re-
submission of the prohibitory law, with
a view to the ultimate enactment of a
license law. Facts don't seem to count
much in his reckoning.
