states prohibitory law In certain
counties OF the state, the law has In
general been respected and enforced
according 10 It's letter and spirit.
Since the advent OF national pro

enforcement supported by an over
whelming public sentiment In Its
favor. The constant agitation of the
liquor Interests In years gone by
was 10 n large extent responsible for
local notification but this agitation
has ceased and the temperance
question Ia no longer a political one.
Maine has ~pronperod under Its
