"A DEAD FAILURE"

Maine Prohibitory Law.

had been moderate user of alcoholic
beverages in the form Of wine and been
during most of his life, President .,harleu
". Eliot of Harvard University declared
that Ills earlier IDEAS had since undergone
q radical change in notable address
tonight before the Massachusetts No Lii
censc League, of which he is the honor
ary president.

times called Il moderate drinker" dcclar-
ed President Eliot. That is to say 7
have used beer and wine on occasions.
not habitually, and | have never expert
enced any i'll effects whatever in my own
person from either beer or vine"
Continuing, President Eliot declared
that recent researches in physiology and
medicine tended strongly To show that
moderate drinking of alcohol was mex
pcdien and that men exposed to cold
hear or hardship are not better prepared
for such encounters by alcohol. Presi-
dent Eliot declared further that alcohol
even moderately used did not quicken the
action of the mind or enable one to SUM-
port mental labor.
Speaking of no license. President Eliot
declared while he had formerly consid-
cred it an infringement upon individual
rights he had come TO sec that the great
est good for the greatest number just-
fed something but he held that Il town
which went strongly for no license or for
license consistently was far better off
than the town which continually "wab-
bled' on such vote. He declared he had
seen something of prohibition i'll Maine
and knew that the prohbitoiy law in
that state was dead failure" and that
under prohibition you will always have
numerous illicit places of sale.

MACK HAS AN IDEA.
Suspicious Aroused as to Taft and
ChanIer Business Mems League.

New York. Oct. 29-National Chair
man Mack declared his belief Thurs
day that an investigation would show
that the Taft and Chanler Business
Mems League" which is seeking to
secure the election OF Taft for Presi-
dent and Chanler for governor of the
state. was being financed by the Re-
publican national committee. The
league said Mr.. Mack is circulating
sample ballots showing how to split
the ticket and is extensively adver-
Using in the local press advocating the
election of Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Chanler.
None of the regular Democratic or
CARNATIONS, asserted Mr. Mack was be-
hind this movement. whose promoters
have carefully avoided their identity
in the campaign.
Mr. Mack declared that the appear
ance OF Former Gov. Hill with Mr..
Bryan at the meeting in Alban:-
Wednesday night would undoubtedly
have a good effect in bringing back
many of the old line Democrats into
the ranks again. Mr.. Mack said that
Mr.. Hill was stronger today than he
ever was in the political world, not
withstanding the fact that Mr.. Hill
had retired from active politics.
