no continuing program, and carried
about S260.OO0, ZOO. The senate ma
val committee already has added
three capital ships and increased the

PROMOTES PROSPERITY.

Constant reiteration of the false
statements Of liquor advocates has un-
doubleday led some persons to the
conclusion that Maine is suffering and
has been impoverished because of it's
prohibition policy. A careful and
truth-seeking investigation will show
the exact opposite to be the case.
A bulletin by the United States CEN
sus bureau reviewing the 80 years pre-
iceding 1912, shows the steady advance
ment Of Maine in financial independ-
ence. In 1880 Names per capita
debt was $S.49, as contrasted with an
average Of II states Of $5.48. In 1912
1t has been reduced rs per cent, and
the average Of the other states only SO
per cent. Maine now owes $1.67 per
capita, while the other states average
1882. Massachusetts,, with her high
license system, which the liquor advo-
Gates say is the best license law in
the world, has per capita indebted
ness over 10 times larger than the pro-
hibition state of Maine. The general
comfort Of the people Of Maine is
manifested by the large percentage Of
homes owned free from debt. In 1910
the total number Of homes owned was,
according to the census report, 109,-
29S, and rs per cent of these were free
from mortgage.

TO RESCUE U. S. TRANSPORT
U. s. Army Transport Goes Aground
OFF the Coast of New
Jersey.

New York.-The U. s. army trans
port Sumner. bound from Colon to
this port, with army officers, troops
and civilian passengers, is hard
aground on the New Jersey coast, off
Barnegat. Two coast guard cutters,
under forced draught, are rushing to
the relief of the transport. which sent
out calls for help after she struck.
The Seneca, which was off the east
ern end of Long Island when directed
to 60 to the aid of the Sumner, re-
ported that she would put out to Bar
negat at once. The Mohawk, which
was at anchor off Staten Island, left
for the scene, and 1t is believed will
reach there before the Seneca.
The Sumner, which left Colon Dec.
4, was previously reported, at noon
Sunday, 407 miles south of Sandy
Hook. The next heard Of the vessel
was the wireless call. stating that che
had gone ashore during fog. The
transports normal complement is II
officers and q crew Of 118, but she
has been carrying many soldiers sta.
toned at Panama to and from the 18TH
mus. The last time she reached this
port she carried 1876 passengers.

FIGHT ON JOHN BARLEyC0RM
Resolution Adopted In. Congress Pro-
vIding for Nationwide Vote On
Prohibition.

Washington the first time In
the history Of the American congress
the judiciary committee of the house
of representatives voted, II to Z, to
submit a joint resolution to the house
providing for an amendment to the
federal constitution permitting the
states to vote on nationwide prohibit.
ton.
The resolution Is believed to have
an excellent chance to pass, as many
representatives who are personally op-
posed to nationwide prohibition will
vote for the joint resolution reported
out by the judiciary committee be-
cause they represent states which have
voted out liquor and feel on that ac-
count dutybound to reflect what they
believe is the sentiment of their re-
spective states.
Many will vote for the resolution
not because they are prohibitionists,
but because they do not care to 60
on record as attempting to withhold
from the states opportunity to vote on
the question Of dry nation. Twenty
four Of the 4S states have already vot-
ed dry and the dry area is now greater
than the wet. Truth is, national legis-
lators have grown weary Of the liquor
issue and would like to see 1t forever
banished from politics. 1t is regarded
as a sort of bounding Nemesis at the
heels of every man who seeks an elect
i've office.

WHISPERS UNDER THE BAN
Prejudice Against Facial Adjournment
Was Very Strong Some Gen.
turtles Ago.

Nowhere was there more prejudice
against boards than at the Inns of
Court centuries ago. The "Black
Books" of Lincoln's inn of the six
teenth century are full of references
to offenders who were "fyned double
comens durynge such TYNE as they
shall have any berde." This proving
ineffective, whole batch of bearded
barristers was In 1854 "banysshed from
We howse," and shortly afterward a
judges order was obtained for the COM
pulsory shaving of some of the mem
bers. The Inner temple benches were
not quite so severe, for a fine of 20s
was the sole penalty imposed In 1866
for "wearyng beardes of more than
three weekes growthe." The war
against bearded barristers continued at
the Inns of Court until the seventeenth
century.
Long after this, however, the preju-
dice against the unshaved barristers
remained. Vice Chancellor Ba-
con carried his dislike so far that he
always refused to listen to bearded or
mustached counsel, pretending that he
could not hear them. Even now, al
though there are plenty of bearded bar
risters and X. C.'s, few have attained
eminence. The most brilliant excep-
ton was perhaps the late judah Philip
Benjamin, "silver-tongued Benjamin"
who despite his mustache and Ameri-
can "goatee" earned the princely in
come of $4,000 year.-London

TEMPERANCE
lssNOteSH
BUTTERFLY FALSE"

In search of the facts concerning
the claim Of the brewers that 'beer is
liquid bread" the Christian Advocate,
leading periodical of the Methodist
Episcopal church, wrote to the director
of the laboratory Of the Connecticut
board of health, asking for scientific
statement. The unabbreviated reply
was as follows:
editor the Christian Advocate: In
reply to your note will say that it is
hard to conceive more misleading
statement than to call beer liquid
bread The facts are that the grains
out Of which beer is made do contain
a deal of nourishment, adapted both
for fuel and tissue building. In the
process of beer-making the materials
are mostly destroyed and removed by
the process of clarifying. AS a result
the final product has lost practically
all the tissue-building material 1t ever
contained, and most of its fuel food
has been converted into alcohol, which
has less fuel value, to say nothing of
its poisoning effect upon the nervous
system. Before the fermentation the
material might possibly be called
liquid bread but not after the fer
mentation and Qualification; for these
processes have destroyed nearly all
the value it originally possessed. The
final product has no tissue-building
value, only little fuel value, and in
addition has poisoning action upon
the nervous system. Bread has large
value as a tissue builder and also as
a fuel, and in addition has no bad eff
feet upon the nervous system. To
call beer liquid bread is therefore ut
terly false and badly misleading.
