Liquor and Insanity

When you get the actual figures,
alcoholic indulgence causes an ap-
palling number of cases of insan-
ity. These figures are now ready
and can be had in condensed form,
handy for reference. Sunday
school teachers, show your boys
that states like Wisconsin have one
insane person to every $50 people,
while the eight states with state
wide Prohibition have only one
case of insanity to every 1873
people.

THE AMERICAN ISSUE
Maine Legislature Fires -Four
Crooked Sheriffs
by A. S. Bisbee.]

Augusta, Maine, April IS. Louis
w. Moulton, sheriff of Cumberland
county; w. E. Emerson, sheriff Of
Penobscot county; John w. Ballou
sheriff of Sagadahoc county, and
Hewitt M. Lowe, sheriff of Andres
coggin, have joined the throng entitled
to the use of the prefix Eek
Sheriff A. ]. Tolman, under quaran-
tine for alleged exposure to smallpox,
is waiting for the lifting of the quar-
antine and the possible reconvention
of the legislature, to answer to the
complaint that he should be removed
from office.
The legislature, which closed its
session Saturday, recommended the
removal OF Moulton, Emerson and
Ballou. Lowe did not wait for the
inquiry to reach his case, but resigned.
Tolman was exposed to smallpox, by
his own planning or carelessness, it
is alleged, and could not be brought
up for investigation.
Governor William T. Haines threat
ems, unless Knox county conditions
improve, to call a special session CT
the legislature, to probe the situation
there.
The vacancies in the shrievalties
will be filled by the governors ap
pointments,
William H. Hines, county attorney
of Androscoggin county, who also
was accused in the charges on nom
enforcement of law, was able to defend
his conduct
These developments, among the
most important since Maine adopted
its law prohibiting the liquor traffic,
grew out of wholesale disregard, by
sheriffs and other officials, of their
oaths of office, especially as regarded
the Prohibition law
Evidence of this winking at law
violation was developed in several
counties, and brought to the attention
of Governor Haines, who transmitted
it to the legislature, with the request
that that body act on the information.
In five of the suspected counties suf-
fcient grounds for investigation were
disclosed. The investigation resulted
in finding three of the five sheriffs
guilty, while the fourth resigned and
the fifth went under quarantine.
Governor Haines has shown him
self to be the proper sort of executive
in this crisis. Not only will he look
after Knox county, to the extent, if
he deems it necessary, of calling
special session of the legislature, but
he has warned all county officials n
all parts of the state that they must

TO MAP MISSISSIPPI FLOOD

E
Memphis, April 8.--Following re-
ports the food In Missouri this year
are likely to exceed those Of 1912,
the Missouri waterway Commission
yesterday engaged A. ]. Wheeler OF
Charleston, Mo-. an expert on levee
engineering work. to make a CON-
pete survey and map of the food
last year. and computed the damage
$13, 1000, 600. His findings were
embodied in a report made to the
last General Assembly by the Water
way Commission.
Wheeler reports. stream Of water
two miles wide and feet deep Is
pouring through the Drinkwater
levee, at a break near Prices's Land
ing. The water Is running in a
southwesteriy direction through
Mississippi. Pemiscot and New Mad
rid counties. around the bast OF
Sikeston Ridge into the Little River
Valley and flows into the Mississippi
again near -alena. Ark.
To determine how this body OF
water would have aected Cairo, ILL.,.
and other lower river points If the
lcvee had not given way, current
meter will be put In Operation by r..
a. sReeinsan. ans eaeEnesH New
Madrid, Mo, to ldetermine the
speed of the overflow water The
Main Mississippi county levee is still
holding against the flood. but the
area of overflow water this year will
be as great as last. owing to the
Drinkwater break.
River Commission to Start.
The steamer Mississippi, with
members of the Mississippi River
commission aboard, will depart at
10 a. m, Saturday for New Orleans
on its semi-annual inspection trip.
Stops will be made at all places af-
fected by the food. At Cairo, H.,
the commission will be met by busi-
ness men who will undertake to ex-
plain the flood situation, and i'm
mediate need of additional levee pro-
lection and revetment work. The
commission will not ask Congress
for another appropriation for levee
Improvement, as Congress has just
granted $4,000, eco. To decide on a
distribution OF the money will be
the purpose of the present trip. The
money will be expended on levees
most in need of repair and rebuild
ing.
Col. Charles Med Townsend will
preside at the meeting of the COM
mission on the steamer at 10 O'Clock.
The first information that such
conditions existed as above stated
was given the public in The Bulletin
of last week and verified in detail
Monday morning as to the diversion
of the excess water in the Ohio
river restraining the river from ris-
Ing to 56 feet or more.
