ut is n good showing for Maine

This remarkable testimony to the
prosperity of prohibition Maine comes
from n newspaper avowedly hostile to
prohibition, the Boston Herald. 1t Is q
complete answer TO the oft-repeated
falsehOod Of the brewers and distillers
that Maine has been impoverished be-
cause she has steadfaStly refused to
legallze the dramshOp. In population
Maine ranks as the thlrty-fourth state
In the Union. But on June 80, 1915,
the deposits In her savings banks
amounted to Sy7, 23,0SS.63, n total ex-
ceeded by only IL other states. The
amount Of depositors-23S, 5S6-repre-
sents nearly One-third Of the total pop
ulatiOn Of the state, including men,
women and children. Only ten states
exceed Maine in the actual number Of
depositors. The total proportion Of de-
posltors to population is equalled by
only five states. Deposits in building
and loan associations amounted to $5,-
55S,269. with 12,113 depositors. Add to
this the savings deposited in trust com-
panles and national banks, and the per
capita individual deposits amount to
$244.50 for every man, woman and child
in the state. In 1914 the average per
capita individual deposits In all the
states was $lSS, which average Maine
leads by over $50.

why rheumatism Comes
With Cold Weather!
BY VALENTINE MOTT PIERCE, M. D.

A close connection exists between
these two cold weather and rheu-
matism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of London,
has the most followers in the medical
profession in the belief that the pres.
cree in the system of uric acid, or its
salts in excess, is the real cause of rheu-
matism. Everyone has recognized the
d difference in the appearance OF their
water as soon rs it gets cold; there is
often q copious sediment of brickdust.
Several causes may lead up TO an
accumulation of uric acid in the system,
which, in turn, causes rheumatism or
govt, or creaky joints, or swollen fingers,
or painful joints. For one reason the
skin does not throw off the uric acid, by
profuse sweating, as in the hot weather,
and the kidneys are unable to take care
Of the double burden. Another reason

No newspaper that we have seen
has yet got up nerve enough to either
commend or defend the action of Gov
enor Phillip in refusing the people the
right to vote on the Evjue bill proyid-
ing for vote on the wet and dry issue
in 1918. It was an outrage all right
Incapable of defense by any who be-
believes in the right of the people to
rule. Having followed the Governors
political affiliations pretty closely
ever since the days of the notorious
Eleventh Floor League, we are not
greatly surprised at his action.
We will however give him credit
for standing by his friends-the brew
ers, and that is more than some people
will do in a pinch. The campaign Of
next year now shows an excellent
prospect of being lively one, and in
which we think the people of Wiscon-
sin will repudiate their action of 1916
in giving their support to Candidate
Hughes and Gar Phillip.
