 In the grant by James I to the Plymouth Colony Maine was included in their territory. Op- position~to the Plymouth Colony arose among the kings courtiers and Sir Ferdinando Gorges and Captain Mason succeeded in ob- taining for themselves rights to the country between the Merri- mac and Kennebec rivers. This they divided, Gorges taking the northern section. Meanwhile Gorges had sent over a small col. ony to the mouth of the Kenne- bee, but this settlement was soon abandoned. The first permanent settlement was made in 1925 at what is now York Massachu- setts objected to Gorges' claim and finally annexed all the terri tory up to Casco Bay and called this northern section the District of Maine. Maine was dissatisfied with the rule of the mother state and by 1920 succeeded In being admitted to the Union as the twentythird state.
 Maine was the first state to adopt prohibition. In the begin ming Maine was strongly Demo cratic.
