Editorial Comment
Anti Prohibition "Points."
tBridgton New 81


If not quite disgusting it is amusing
to note the points made by the anti
prohibition press as to the campaign
now on for retention of the prohibit
tory principle in the constitution The
Woterville Sentinel. for example
treats the question from. the stand
point that the placing of the amend
ment in the organic law twenty-seven
years ago was the commencement OF
an era, overlooking entirely the fact
that prohibition has; been the settled
principle of the state nearer half a
century than twenty seven years. Note
this arrant nonsense:
Constitutional prohibition promises
to prohibit the liquor traffic. Its prom
Use is there in the constitution but
there is nothing to give that promise
any effect. This failure to fulfill the
promise given is what condemns con-
stitutional prohibition exactly the
same as the worthlessness of any
promise is proven by its non-fullment.
No promises are made fiji the amend
ment, and no law enacted. 1t simply
defines restrictive rather than permits
sive legislation; and it's coming has
never in any way affscted the law
which the Legislature enacts, other
than to create a barrier as to laws
other than prohibitory. But these
scribes must say something, and they
haven't quite the courage to claim
that the ardent is "a good creature of
God and the people have a right to
all they want of lts and prohibitory
laws are really vexaaions to the eiti
zen. Possibly that may come later in
tha ran.naipn

Civics for Children.

In Chicago, the study of algebra has
given place to the study of ciyies, and
the results of the exchange has aroused
much enthusiasm among the citizens
of that city. A school in South
Chicago made a study of grade cross
ings, and in another school models
were made of neighboring streets
needing Improvement, showing actual
conditions and the street as 1t SHOULD
be.
IN Indianapolis. the young folks set
forth to do some real good to the city,
and the changed habits and attitudes
of mind of the pupils warrant the in
ception of the work elsewhere. Teach
ing civic beauty and municipal cleanli-
ness is not an innovation in that city,
imaginations of the boys to feel the
finer sense of doing something for the
betterment of the city is both rare and
delightful.
In Indianapolis and in Philadelphia,
school teachers are opening to the
pupils outside of school hours. their
native city as laboratory of OBJ
servation and practice, in which they
may perceive the nature and relations
of community life and their own rela-
ton TO it, helping the pupil to form
habits of thinking in terms Of COM
munity life; to cultivate an interest in
community relations, and to develop
habits of intelligent action with refer
ence to matters of community inter-
est
In Cincinnati and Newark the study
of community civics has been brought
into the schools, beginning as early as
the fifth year. The beginning is
made from the doorstep of the pupils
home through the street to the school,
extending in an ever widening circle,
as the pupil progresses. until it en-
braces local, state and national activi-
ties. Leaflets are issued urging chill
dren TO seek out unsightly places
capable of Improvement, and in the
public libraries books are placed with
in the reach of all, giving information
OF what is being done in other cities
TO Improve existing conditions. The

These are splendid and unparal-
ieied results, and demonstrate an
actual progress in Maine markedly
in excess of Massachusetts and else
where. Whether these results are
attributed TO the unusual intelligence
and natural energy, enterprise, thrift,
and capacity with which the people
OF Maine are fortunately endowed
To a degree not found elsewhere, or
whether they are To be accounted
Tor by the fact that, because of the
policy of prohibiting the liquor

In the consideration of any analy-

nothing in the policy or law of
Maine that differentiates her from

The Pulp and PAPER cocker"

The pro-reciprocity papers have oc-
casion to be somewhat alarmed over
the discovery by Senator Lodge of a
joker in the pulp and paper section of
the Canadian reciprocity" agreement.
Senator Lodge points out that unless
| Canada should cause the removal of
the provincial restrictions on the ex-
port of those articles, not a pound of
American wood pulp or paper could
enter Canada duty free. This dis
elimination, the senator declares, is so
serious as to make the arrangement
| imperative, as affording Canadian
market for American pulp and paper,
and he indicated his belief that the
Canadians had their eyes open when
they signed the treaty. on the other
hand ii is broadly charged that the
American negotiators did not have
their eyes opened. as wide as might
have been, to the full effect of the
Canadian position when they APP
proved the original agreement. Time
and an analytical study of the agree
ment, and consideration of the in
equalities pointed out by the farmers
and their representatives. are having
effect.
Senator Root recommends an amend
ment, adding to the pulp and paper
section Of the bin the words: And
when the President of the United
States shall have satisfactory evidence
and shall make proclamation that such
wood pulp, paper and board, being a
product of the United States, are adj
mitted in Canada free of duty" II is
considered probable that this amend
ment will be favored by the committee.
and its effect as studied in the light of
the language of the agreement may be
TO tie up indefinitely the operation of
the free pulp and paper provisions.
Keen. analytical Washington writer's,
comment that the feeling is rife in the
Senate finance committee, that the
disadvantages under which this gov
eminent labors in carrying out any ar
rangement like that contemplated with
Canada, inasmuch as the states of the
United States are prohibited by the
constitution from dwelling duties of
any kind, or imposing restrictions on
importations, while the Canadian
provinces may and do enforce il. seem
insurmountable. AS the situation is
now shaping in the Senate, the OPP
ponents of reciprocity will insist upon
the removal of all provincial restric-
tons by Canada. even though the Do
minion government is powerless to
compel such removal. before consent
ing TO ratify the agreement.
OF course such a construction of the
agreemnt has its gratifying appear
ance for the opponents of reciprocity.
VINO see in it the opportunity to DELAY
action, not only on the bill itself but
upon the operation of the free pulp
and paper section. should the bill be-
come a law, in manner that perhaps
might change wonderfully the views of
many of the radical supporters of the
present farm killing proposition.
