"Perry Act Jokers''
Under this Heading The Randolph Herald and News prints the
following editorial which should be read by
every voter in the State.

liar system of egisiat representation that pre-
walls in Vermont, can overturn it--no easy thing
as the experience of 1908 and long period of agi'
tation preceding it demonstrated.
3. The Perry act, though cleverly clothed in tho
garb OF Esau is in fact the voice of Jacob, for
these reasons among others:
a. 1t affords no legal way ia which malt or spir.
ituous liquors can be procured for any purpose
whatsoever within the state of Vermont except
ing hard cider by the barrel Qeft In TO catch the
votes of the farmers
b. 1t not only withdraws from towns the right
to decide the question of saloons but it wthdraws
from them the right to decide whether they will
have druggists licences where liquor may be pro.
cured on physicians prescription, according to
the act OF 1912.
C. By placing Vermont under prohibition it is
automatically putting it under the operation of the
Webb Kenyon federal law which gives federal Off
Gals authority to- interfere with and stop the ship,
ment of liquors into dry states. placing upon con
signees the burden of proving that liquors seized
are to be used for legitimate purposes.
d. While not denying that there are proper or
legitimate for liquor, it is afording no source
whatsoever for their supply, the old prohibitory
law did through the town agency.
Let no one be deceived. II the voter is abso
lutely uncompromsing toward intoxtcants in any
form and under any circumstances Except hard
cider, he should favor the Perry act. But no one
should support it under the deluson that he has
merely assisted in spreading the no.license mantle
the whole of Vermont. If he does he will
later learn his mistake.
In our opinion, citizen may honestly and con.
sstently oppose the saloon or the legalizing of
beverage traffic anywhere in Vermont; he may
prefer statewide prohibition with provisio
for the sale of alcoholics for necessary purposes
to the present local option system, without in ell

this act pretends to pose for what it is not we
sha II try our best to unmask 1t.
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1916-01-25

1t is frequently said by those who favor the adop.
ticn of statewide prohibition as provided by the
Perry act to be submitted next March that this
measure m orey extends to the whole state the be-
neicerce of no license as it now exists in towns
that go dry. The Ferry act, we are told means the
same thing would local option II every city and
town in Vermont, under the present system. were
to vote no at the annual March meeting.
This assumption is not correct either in principle
or fact. The Perry act is not fairly represented
when its sponsors claim it to be simply another
form of local option. and voters, whatever their
final stand on the question, should not be mised
into this opinion respecting it. The Perry act is
in fact far more stringent state prohibitory law
tn an the one repealed in 1908. The promoters OF
it, instead of framing measure of their own, ad.
roity took the so-called Clement law and cut out
the local option feature entirely, which was and is
the basic principle of the preseut liquor system of
Vermont. This act they would have Vermont adopt
under the impression that the good results lowing
from the many local decisions rendered annually
against opening saloons will be achieved for the
state at large by single verdict sA
There can be no compromise between the tive
principles of statewide prohibition and local OPP
ton. Any attempt to make it appear that the
Perry act merely makes Vermont go dry all over
as it would If every city and town in the state took
independent action that way is distinctly mlsead'
ing. And for these reasons
/. 1t is legslating away from each city and
town of the state the right recognized by the pres
ent law to decide whether it will have saloons or
will not. This may be correct and proper. but it
is not local option or any form of it. In fact, 1t is
square denial OF that principle. 1t is setting up
the ri ght of some OF the towns to decide the ques
tion of the saloon not only for themselves but for
all the towns
2. 1t is putting away the annual submission of
the question to the people and setting up in its
stead permanent no that cannot be changed by
the people until such time they, under the pecu
