FAILURE OF PROHIBITION.
Testimony Of Men in Position to Know.

Hon. Charles F. Libbey, Portland, Ne.
(Ex.President state Senate, Ex-Mayor OF
Portland and States's Attorney
81 kept a record OF all these men and the
number OF times they come before me-
l look It all over to see what had accom-
plished at the end Of my term. l found that
had driven ost of the business one set OF
men and another had come in, and, so far as
can judge from my experience the last set
of men engaged in the business was worse than
the first. In addition to that, l found that
I when the law was very stringently enforced II
created a demand for club-houses, and
found that young men we're establishing club
rooms here in this city, and not only did they
become places where drinking was carried on
but, by supplying larger quantities than they
generally would have in their possession as a
means Of gratifying their appetite for drink
they we're also getting to gambling and other
vices. l found that, while was driving the
liquor out ofthe ordinary shops where 1t had
been sold, l was driving 1t into the houses
and kitchens, where the children Of the fam
lily, who up to that time never saw it, were
accustomed to see Il dealt out in that sur
reptitious manner. The rigid enforcement OF
the law introduced the system of pocket
peddIing-something which we never had In
the city before"
Hon. S. X. Shepherd, LeaYenWOrthj Kan.
(Ex-Secretsry of Statel
1.-THE consumption Of liquor has been in
creased rather than diminished, and men
have been made worse instead OF better. Pro-
hibition has debauched our State. The at
tempted enforcement has brought out the
worst element of human characters on both
sides Of the question. Men who once had re-
spect for the law have grown to hate and de-
spise 1t, and their sons are following in their
footsteps. In places Of saloons we have drug
stores. Joints, clubrooms and secret hell-holes,
where vicious stuff is sold to all who want IT,
old or young"
LIVED TOO LONG. IN MAINE.
81 have lived to long in Maine, and, coming
Of Rhode Island family, have blushed too
often at the wicked sham and shame Of pro-
hibition in that state also to wish to see the
experiment repeated" The Rev. W. II.
Lyon.
Milford chronicle. [volume] (Milford, Del.) 1878-1974, 1907-09-13

The annual report of the city Of Lewis
ton which has Just been issued shows
that the total number Of arrests made LOT
nuisances and were disposed OF by report
saws there were 112 cases which were not
prosecuted, and these with a few exceP
lions were cases of intoXication which
will bring the total number OF arrests Tor
this cause at over 500.
Statistics compiled for the purpose OF
getting at the facts in relation to lntoxl'
cation are always very unsatisfactory.
MANY drunken persons are sent to their
homes by the officers or else delivered to
the care of friends, and many times men
are taken to the police headquarters ior
intoxication and then released without
any record being made Of the case
