loon gang sold everything under the cover
of beer and change was required to
check their deceit.
1t is an amusing and exceedingly in
teresting fact that the standard of one
half of one per cent OF alcohol, now law
full i'll any beverage than can be sold, is
a standard that was fixed by the liquor
dealers themselves years ago, when the
old license law was in good and regular
standing. The Bookkeeping fraternity of
that day were selling the saloon products
with high hand and without license.
The Liquor Dealers Association, whose
members were paying the regular license
fees, demanded that the United States
government make it unlawful without
license TO traffic in any beverage which
contained more than one-half OF one per
cent of alcohol This was, of course, to
protect the lieense-paying saloonkeepers
from the encroachment OF the bootlegging
fraternity OF that day upon the profitable
business of the licensed dealers.
The decent citizenship of Illinois and
America arc using this same effective
weapon to protect their homes. The shoe
is on the other foot now, and, OF course,
it pinches.

The Real Truth of the Matter

wet candidate for the United States Senate said
not long ago. that the Nolstead act has been in the
hands OF its friends with all the of the federal
government at their command
The above statement contains some truth and much
falsehood
The enforcement OF the law in several states and in
numerous sections OF others has been in the grip of
many enemies and vastly larger number secret
ones.
Many federal enforcement officials appointed on the
recommendation OF certain United States Senators and
other influential politicians, maniesty with the primary
object of building up their political machines have
basey betrayed their sacred oath and the public welfare
Enforcement Of the law from the angle and rep
resented by county Judges states attorneys, shers and
has suffered grievousy the hands of unworthy
officials
But things are constantly lettering along both fronts
of federal and state enforcement. The situation is in
fnitey better than in the saloon days A trip into any
town where the saloons fourished confirms the
above statement without arguments honest observers.
The honest citizens of Illinois and the nation are rap
idly coming to the farce Of placing dry law in
hands for enforcement.

The touching so1icitude tendery expressed by an
increasing number of booze candidates behalf Of the
boys and girls of country because of the alleged
danger to them of acquiring drinking habits under the
prohibition law is enough a wooden Indian to
tears OF course the way to decrease the danger OF
contracting the drink habit is to multiply the oppor-
tunties for securing the drink.

After the wets, by popular vote have secured such

natural or artificial, must be made.
"Fire is the chief enemy of the for
est, especially of young forests. for
even a light surface fire which may
cause little damage to old timber. will
destroy all reproduction and delay the
next timber crop.
"There is $1S2,000,0O0 of invested
capital in the wood using industries
and these turn out products valued at
$146. 600. 900 each year. The payroll
of these industries. which is paid di-
rectly to Maine citizens, is $40, 1000.
These figures do not include the log
ging industry nor industries such as
book binding, printing and publishing,
which are dependent upon paper
which is made almost entirely from
wood pulp.
Zone striking character Of the wood
using industries is that they are dis
tributed throughout the entire state
for the most part as relatively small
establishments, and form the chief
support of many small towns and viii
lagos. Their disappearance would
spell the virtual stagnation of the
community.
1T therefore not only becomes not
only duty but an advantage for
every one to protect and conserve our
forest resources"

Believe Maine
Will Be Reimbursed
$1,000 War Claim

Adjutant General James w. Han
son who with State Auditor Ebert
d. Hayford has just returned from
Washington, d. c., declared yester-
day that they both felt encouraged
from the attitude shown that Maine
will be reimbursed for the money
expended to put into effect the Sc
lective service law at the outset of
the World War.
The Senate claims committee of
Congress is now considering Senator
Hale's bill which provides that the
Secretary of the Treasury shall pay
to the State of Maine $12,763, which
is the sum expended by the State in
assisting the Federal government to
put the so-called draft law into ef-
feet.
In Washington, General Hanson
and Auditor Hayford called upon
Senator Deneen of Illinois, who Is
the chairman of the claims commit
tee. HE seemed to evince a very
friendly attitude" said General Han
son, yesterday. 1--WE also held con-
ference with the chief of the finance
office and the general accounting Of

mine from their attitude they would

claim"
1t was brought to the attention
of Senator Deneen that IL Maine is
not reimbursed for this sum 1t will
amount to a penalization of the
state for its promptness and patriot
ism in aiding the Federal govern
ment to put into effect the selective
service act. Maine acted early In
April of 1917, much more quickly
than other states, and within less
than a month after the declaration
of war. While other states waited
until the Federal Government made
funds available to pay the expense
of putting the law into effect, Maine
spent its own money.
General Hanson said yesterday
that there is no appropriation at the
present time for the payment of the
claim and that if the bill was passed
Congress would have to provide the
funds. The Hale bill authorizes the
Secretary of the Treasury to pay the
money.

have been mailed at Washington.
AS soon as the papers are received,
General Hanson will be ready to ad-
vertise for bids for the work 1t is
believed that the work should be
completed in six weeks, so that water
will be supplied to the camp during
the period of the infantry encamp-
ment there which opens the latter
part of July.
The connection with the city water
main will be made on Western ave-
nue. near the Gannett estate and
from there the water will be pumped
up to the camp to supply the 10
kitchens and the three buildings
equipped with shower baths and
latrines.
General Hanson stated that 1t is
planned to do some grading around
the new buildings at the camp this
spring, and some work in grading
will probably also be done on the
parade grounds and airplane landing
field. A short section of road will be
| built from the main entrance to the
camp to the headquarters building.
The plans contemplate installation

Vigorous Campaign
Forest Protection
For Coming Summer

The prize essay contest which IS
being conducted by the Maine Forest
Service among the grammar and high
school pupils of the State'is the start

protection, which will be carried on
throughout the summer, it was an
nounced in statement issued Tues
day by the State forestry depart

Forest protection and conservation
Is as much duty of the school chill
dren as it is of their parents" con-

This is particularly true as re-
CARDS young forests, for the children
of today are the prospective wood
users of tomorrow.
Maine has been literally endowed
with natural resources. It's agricul-
tural possibilities and its potential
water power rank high among the
