First in Constitutional Prohibition.
Constitutional prohibition, in which
Maine was a pioneer, was first adopted
in 1884. For II years the prohibitory
law remained undsturbed of serious
attack. In 1901 bill for resubmission
of the subject was before the legisla-
ture, but only 81 votes could be mus
tered in it's favor. In 1907 a similar
resolve was barely defeated.
Democrats for Resubmissian.
In the state campaign last year re-
submission was one of the chief issues.
the democrats taking a stand in favor
of giving the voters another chance ia
pass upon the question, and the repub-
llcans standing pat on prohibition,
which had been the party's policy for
so years. The election of a democrats
governor and democratic Legislators
settled the questions of resubmission,
and it remained only for the formal
vote to be passed at the statehouse-
