Editorial Comment
Helping Prohibition.
tBiddeford Record.D

iNtOoih.'
How will the resubmission referen-
dun be influenced by the wide open
policy that is being followed in most
of the counties in Maine
1t has always been the Democratic
theory that the Surest way to get rid
of the pfohibitory law was to enforce
it strictly. The more vigorous the
enforcement. the more unpopular the
law becomes. When officers are active
and raids are frequent you hear the
strongest outcry against prohibition.
When it is free and easy, when pro-
hibtion amounts to merely low license
Tor unlimited barrooms and anything
and everything in the drink line can
be bought as openly as groceries, little
thought is given TO the law. 1t ceases
to be obnoxious as soon as enforce
ment ceases. The man in the business
las no wish for high license when
he can get by with a fine of 500 or
5000 Il year. The man who wants the
chance to buy a drink is not fussy
whether he buys it in a prohibition
saloon or a license saloon. whether
he buys it in saloon licensed by law
or in one licensed by the sheriff and
the county attorney.
1t is The Records idea that the
people who are doing the most effec-
tive work at present to retain the pro-
hibitory amendment are not the Civic
LesI Suers. not the Anti Saloon forces.
nor the w. G. T. T., nor the Good
Templars, nor the Prohibition ram
roddhers," but the sheriffs. and the
politicians behind the wide open poll
cy that prevails generally in Maine
beyong York County.
The wide open policy cuts both
ways. 1t silences protest from those
who are opposed to prohibition when
there is any attempt to enforce it.,
while the notification disgusts those
who would like to see an honest sys-
TEN inauSurated in place of the
present farce. In their disgust many
of them are likely to lose their inter-
, est in securing any change.
The wide open policy hurts the
chances of repeal. The prohibition
, forces ought to be grateful to those
who are responsible for it.

Pretty girls shining shoes are draw
ing such crowds to bootblacking es-

Sun Repudiates Democratic Plan.

NISCW
Our Democratic exchanges have so
long been accustomed to scold in re-
gard to alleged non enforcement of the
prOhibitory law that such papers as
the Watervile Sentinel and the Lewis
ton Sun forget it is their party that is
now responsible for the enforcement
of the laws of the State and make the
same statements that they have made
i'm the past with even more direct en-
phasis.-Kennebec Journal.
That's all right when said to the
Waterville Sentinel: but we have to
confess that The Sun doesn't own a
share of stock in the Democratic party,
and holds none of its bonds.
