NAMES SPECIAL SESSION.
Redistricting of State and Liquor
LEGISLATION Are Issues.


Augusta. Me. March 20-At the
call OF Governor Frederick W. Plais-
ted, the Maine legislature convened
in special session today to revise
the election laws, redstrct the state
for the purpose of electins represent
aliyes to congress, and to consider
proposed liquor legislation.
The special session may also con
sIder presidential preference pri-
mary act, but nasmuch as the Maine
constitution provides that no law
can 90 into effect until three months
after its enactment there is no pos
Sibility of the selection of the Maine
delegates 10 the republican conyeu-
ton by primaries.
In REGARD to election laws, Cover
nor Plasted, who is a democrat,
says:
"Our laws relating to the conduct
OF election, the making of returns to
the governor and council, the tabu.
latins of such returns and the dec
laration of the result thereof, are
uncertain in their meaning and in
adequate in substance. There is no
provision in our statutes for an Off
cal inspection of recount OF ballots.
or even for the depositing of such
ballots in a place of safety. These
leCts in the law became startling.
ly apparent after the specia! election
last September. Tney will afford
lormity for overriding the will
Of the people as expressed at the
polls 1t is imperative that before
we enter into another statewide
election careful and thorough re
Tision Of these important laws should
be made by the legislature"
Last fall Maine voted on the re-
peal Of the prohibitory laws and the
result was a victory for prohibition
by the narrowest OF margins. At
first it was thought that the state
had zone wet" but in the end pro-
h'I.tion was retained on the stat.
utes by very few votes. In his
recommendation to the legislature re.
sarding liquor laws. Governor Plais.
ted, who is understood to favor 10.
cal option rather than statewide pro-
hibition, says:
The situation with regard TO the
prohibitory law and its enforcement
is the cause OF universal complaint
and criticism. No thinking man in
Maine is satisfied with present con.
Gitions. Those who are pleased with
the law ale dissatisfied with the
manner in which it is enforced. 9th
crs regard the law itself as imprac-
tlcable and incapable OF statewide
enforcement The problem is vital
and pressing. The legislature should
find a means to solve it, or. at
least. should be able to submit 10
popular vote some one or more pos
siDle solutions of ii"

The visible part OF the sun is the

The suns diameter decreases slowly
but, says Mr.. Abbott. this cannot
be definitely stated as it would take

change. The sun has been trans
hitting energy to the earth for so
