The class of peasant which may be called ia

the laborerfarmers cultivate for their own bene
fit. They have free access to the forest for fuel
and for lumber for repairs. In return they are
obliged to work for the landowner with their
families and horses. On holdings, where
there is clay the aborer-farmers are allowed to
make bricks and to earn what they can by sales
paying much per cent on their gains to their
landowner.

The state election in Maine in 1910,
bringing the Democratic party into
power, was not run on the prohibition
issue, nor was the question of how to
deal with the liquor problem discussed
by either party during that campaign.
It was part of the great progressive

England. The unpopularity of Mr..
Taft s reciprocity proposals had consid'
erable to do with the defeat Of the Re-
publicans in Maine. During the long
down-and-out years of Democratic dis
honor in Maine they had promised, if
ever they came to power, they would
repeal the prohibition law. They kept
their word and made the attempt, with
