Prohibition in Maine. From New York Tribune. Colonel John C. Cobb of Portland, Me., talking In Washington recen.!y, drew under the prohibition state. Speaking of the means em ployed to get liquor and beer, he said: "The Introduction of intoxicating liquor from other states cannot be prohibited. The consequence Is that Boston breweries and other houses have their own express offices In the various cities in Maine, where they keep their goods stored up for delivery to prospective customers. All that Is necessary te obtain a crate of beer, for Instance, is to tel ephone to one of these express of fices to order the beer from Boston and dclivpr it. The order Is filled The idea of choosing Congressman Hepburn of Iowa as leader of the "Insurgents" In the house Is good. The congressman has about six weeks longer to serve and In that time he one favorable omen Is the revision of will have to hurry to reform the the rules of the house whereby the house rules.

Papilllon w I After Ten Weeks. ' That the prosperity promises made by the republican newspapers and candidates last fall were buncombe was known by those who made them. Mr. Taft himself to hlseverlastlngdls credlt, Joined In the successful effort to fool the voters by making them think Jobs would be plentiful In the event of republican "victory while there would be no Immediate restor ation of prosperity" if Mr . Bryan should win. The truth was, as these men know, and as Intelligent men everywhere knew, there could be no immediate return of untiuctured prosperity In either event. Prosperity waits in comparatively Hmall pari on politics. It is general conditions, financial, In dustrial, commercial, from San l'ran Lo to New York, and thence to Lcn len mil PcUIn, that govern. But the vclrrs me tr.iule to think, through thi dcwnrlght dishonesty of repub lican politicians and newspapers, that If the r"ay after election heralded the news cf Tuft's election, Unit day would witness the opening of the closed mills, the melting away of the bread line, profits everywhere replac ing lenses, and the offers of steady Jobs at k od wages to all the unem ployed. , Mark the sequel. Let tho Wall Street Journal one of the repub lican prosperity and demoi ratlc-cal-amlty shouters tell tho shameful tttory: "The railroads outside of Pennsyl- that the duty on hides be taken off, Times. was a disagreeable surprise to the Nebraska congressmen. It was pre sumed that all cattle raisers favored a high tariff on hides but some of them know enough to see that It does them no good. Now, will tho republican congressmen from Nebras ka listen to their constituents. The wonders of tho world never cease. Here we have the spectacle of the republican members of the Ore gon lglslature keeping their word and electing a democratic senator after the people had voted for him Imagine that happening In Ne braska. The President says he Is greatly Interested in missions. He has cer tainly started enough of them to demonstrate the fact without a pub lic announcement. However, the missions he speaks of are of a dif ferent kind from those he has started. He refers to religious missions while most of those he is responsible for are anything but that. They savor strongly of the opposite. . At last the millennium seeuiB near. Yesterday Deadwood closed down tight on gambling and began clos ing the saloons at eleven o'clock at night. Time was and that not long ago, when Deadwood was the wllcst open town In the states but that seema to be a thing of the past and the late home of the sport and the bad man, seems to be on the verge of becoming as quiet as a puritan village In New England. The senate yesterday voted to raise the President's salary to $100, 000, the vice president and speaker of the house of representatives $15, 000 each, the chief Justice of the supreme court of the United States $15,000 "and the associate Justices 114,500 each. Fair minded people will not object to these Increases as present salaries are manifestly too small for the dignity of the Beveral offices. Tho opposition to tho in creases does not appear to be founded upon any reasonable or fair grounds but looks largely like cheap politics Hughes Is a brilliant lawyer and a decidedly able man , condemned alone by his corporation affiliations. However, he may turn out an agree able surprise. Coe I. Crawford is sent to the senate from South Da kota, certainly no worse for the state than the present senators and a man who will likely make a good show ing during his terra. Iowa sends Albert B. Cummins to the senate, realizing the life dream of that gen tleman, and giving the progressive republicans a strong and resource ful man. Cummlngs will be an active and Intelligent representative of western ideas. New York is one of the states which makes a distinct gain lu the Intellectual capacity of its Benator although It still clings to the idea of sending representatives of organ ized wealth to the senate. It re turns Elihu Root to the senate In place of Thos. C. Piatt the venerable "easy boss" who has outlived his usefulness. Both men represent the power of wealth In national govern- men but Root In addition Is one of the bralnest and most intellectual of American public men. Ills election was in response to a general public demand which stirred even the cal loused skin of New York repub llcanism. Reed Smoot against whom the church organizations" of the country raised such a howl, when he was first elected, is again returned from Utah, receiving the practically total vote of the legislature. As he has been vindicated by the senate, it is Dresumed that nothing more will ever be heard In opposition to him M. N. Johnson is elected to repre sent North Dakota in the senate succeeding Senator Hansbrough. Hansbrough made a fairly good sen ator and It is doubtful Johnson will do as well. Gallinger Is returned from New Hampshire, neither a gain or a loss to the Intelligent make-up of the senate. Senator Overman, is selected to succeed himself from North Carolina, his case being much as Galllnger's. Missouri will return Senator Wm. J.

Delightful Afternoon. The ladles of the W. C. T. U. so ciety passed a delightful afternoon at the social given by Mrs. Thompson on Monday. Mrs. Thompson is all that could be desired in a hostess and her entertainment was fine. The young ladles of the Methodist church gave two appropriate selections and Mrs. Rev. Randall sang a very touch ing song In her beautiful, clear voice. "After Ten Years the Tramp of King Dibbler's Army." Miss Grace Fitz gerald gave a piano recital while the refreshments were being served, and the floral favors were as sweet as their names. Papers were read by Mrs. Rev. Randall, Mrs. George Dodge and Mrs. C. P. Richards. Mr. Austin graced the occasion long enough to sing one song, "The Sunset Light," and made us wish for more, but press of business forced him to refuse. Thank you, Mr. Austin, and Miss Cole, who accompanied him, our thoughts were borne heavenward by the beautiful words and music. J. E. Vandercook, Secretary.
