MAINE WENT DRY

Ii may be finally decided that Maine
went dry by majority of 75S votes.
At the last local option election held
prior to the one in 1911, which occurred
in 1884, the dry majority was 46, 912.
The vets claim that prohibition is
failure and the people are sick of it.
The drys claim that the influx of
foreigners who are accustomed to al
coholic drinks in their native lands and
the large sailor and transient labor
vote Of the coast cities and the indiiiff-
ference of a lot Of the dry element
who were disgusted with politice and
failed to vote, are responsible for the
landslide which so nearly changed the
situation.

OPENING OF PHOENIX

In other words. travellers from the
southern part Of the territory 10 the
northern counties, or vice versa. will
not have to buy tickets and re-checll
their baggage at Phoenix. The order
is effective April l.
Under the present system. which has
prevailed ever since Phoenix had two
railroads. a Traveller from Tucson TO
Prescott. for instance. travels 10 this
city via the s. p. and here buys n
Santa Re ticket To his destination. He
must also see that his baggage IS trans
ferred from one depot to the other and
checked through to Prescott. He can
not buy at Tucson a ticket straight
through To Prescott and forget oil
about his baggage until he arrives at
the mile high town.
La railroad parlance Phoenix is a
closed gateway. beyond whicn neither
the =. p. or Santa F'e sells tickets.
Under the new arrangement il will be
an open gateway. There WILL be no
more necessity Of purchasing second
ticket at Phoenix than there is of pur-
chasing ticket at Chicago when one
goes To New York.
