PICKER FOR PROHIBITION.
READ THE PROOFS!
According to the promise made last week,
we iesunieour exposure ot GENRAL PACK
ER'S views and votes OD the Maine Liquor
Law which passed the Senate in 1852, as
exhibited by the Journal of the Senate for
that year.
On the 3d March, 1852, Mr. Carothers,
from the Committee on Vice and Immorali
ty, reported Sonata Bill, No. 419, entitled
"win act to ptoltibil the manufacture and
gate of intoxicating liquort." 1 See Senate
Journal, Yol. 1. p. 363.
March 18th, a motion was made to con
eider the bill. This was objected to, and
tk orders of the day called. A motion
was then made to suspend the orders to get
at the consideration of the bill. On this
motion the yeas and nays were called, when
the yeas were 20 and the nays 11, so the
motion was lost, —two-thirds being necessa
ry to suspend the orders. On this motion
PACKER voted yea. See Sen. Jour., Vol.
1, p 480.
March 22d, the bill was taken up for
consideration: and on the question whether
the first scctioß should pass, the jeas and
nays were called, and the section passed by
A vote of 19 yeas to 14 nays. PACKER be
ing one of the yeas. See Sen. Jour., Yol.
1, p. 515.
The bill was further debated and consid
ered during that day, and the day follow
ing, as appears by the same volume of the
Journal, at pages 515, 532, 533 Ac., and
the yeas and nays were frequently called on
different sections of the bill, and in every
instance the name of WM. F. PACKER is
found recorded injavor of the bill , and
♦ long with the names of the other warm
friends of that prohibitory Liquor law.
March 315t—1852, the section:; Laving
been all agreed to, the bill came up on its
final passage; and on the question, "shall
♦'the bill pass? The yeas aod nays were
" require! by Mr. Crabb aud Mr. PACKER,
♦'and were as follows: vix:
"YEAS. Messrs. Barnes, Carothers, Cai
"soo, Evans, Feruon, Guernsey, Hamilton,
"Hmnliii, liaslett, Hoge, McFarland, Mc
"Murtrio, Malone, PACKER, Robertson
"Sanderson, and Slifer.—l7.
"Nays. Messrs. Bailey, Buckalew, Crabb,
"Darlington, Frailcy, Fulton, Jones, Kin
der, Kuukel, McCaslin, Matthias, Muhlen
"burg, Myers, Shimer, aud Walker, Speak
"er—ls.
"So the question was determined in the
affirmaiivo." See Senate Journal, of 1852
Vol. l,j>. 612.
Such is GENERAL WM. F. PACKER'S
record in the Senate of 1852, and such are
bis votes upon the subject of the prohibi
tory liquor law whieli passed the Senate
that year, as proved by the Journal of the
Senate, which is the only authorized record
of proceedings. Aud yet bis pirtizan
friends, and the unptincipled press which
supports liim for Governor, are mean enongh
and reckless enongh, to deny that ho is or
ever was in favor of prohibition, and round
ly abuse all who asssrt that he voted for
prohibitory liquor laws. We say again, we
have these Senate Journals in our office,
and can show them, day, and date, and
page, to any man who wishes to see them,
or who desires to know the whole truth on
tiiis subject. And we will here remark that
not only did Genl. Packer make speeches
in the Senate in favor of the bill, aud vote
as here proved, bat according to the well
remctnbered log'c of the Bedford Gazette,
be g;ave the casting vote on the final passage
of this monstrous .Maine Liquor Law.
For on looking at tbe final vote, it will be
observed the bill passed by 17 yeas to 15
nays. Consequently if Genl. Packer had
voted nay, the bill would have been defeat
ed ou its final passage, by a tie vote, and
evidently his vote for the bill was what sa
ved it.
But the same recklessness and disregard
of tbe truth which has heretofore deuied
that Packer was a prohibitionist, may also
deny that tbe bill which passed the Senate
in 1852 was a prohibitory Maino Law.
The bitl was made up of fifteen sections,
and is therefore too long for publication
entire, but in order that all doubts may be
removed on this point, and ail mouths stop
ped, we will give our readers some extracts
from the bill us specimens. As before sta
ted, it was entitled, "„f Jlct to prohibit
the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquors ." And to demonstrate that the bill
itself corresponded with the title, we pub
lish the first three sections of it, as follows:
Ssc. 1. Be it enacted. Ac. That no person
•hall be allowed at any time, to manufacture, or j
sell , by himself, his clerk, servant, or agent, !
directly or indirectly, any intoxicating liquors', •
whether the same l>e spirituous, vinous, or
malt, or a mixture of the same, or any of them, i
or any other liquor possessing intoxicating |
properties, except as hereinafter provided.
Sxc. 2. 'the judges of tbe court of Quarter •
Sessions, aud the County Commissioners, on ,
the first Monday of July, annually, or as soon :
thereafter as may be convenient, may appoint j
suitable persons of well-known, hoDest, tem
peiate, and sober habits, to buy, or manufac
ture and sell at some convenient point iu such
ol tbe Townships, boroughs, snd cities, within
the county, as they may deem expedient and
jweper, wines and other liquors, for sacramental,
medicinal, mechanical and ar'.islical purposes,
ASP FOR SO OTHER PURPOSES WHATSOEVER !
Sucli person shall kc appoint* .. for the term of
one year, hot may he remove* at any time at
the pleasure of said judges 1 rd commissioners
lor violating this act.
SJCC 8- That each person appointed to sell
liquors an aforesaid, shall k icp an accurate ac
count in writing of all t-e liquor bought or
manufactured by him, specifying the quantity
of each kiud purchased or manufactured, the
price of that purchased, the nameof the person
from whom it was purchased, and the date of
the purchase, the quantity of each kind sold,
and the date of the sale, its price, ths name]
residence, and occupation of the person to'
whom it was sold, and the purpose for which it
was purchased by bins; and he. shall cause Ike
ptrto* lo whom ike sale it made, to sign the said
specific anon at the end thereof; he shall semi
annually, it required, on s day and at a place
to bo appointed bjr said judges and cetntnis
aiouaca, whereof public nonce shall be given in
one or more newspapers published in the coun
ty, exhibit upon his oath or solemn affirmation
ths book or books in which sard acc >unt and
specification are kept, to Hie aald judges and
commissioners, together with a balance sheet
showing the quantity of each kiud of liquor
bought and sold by him during the period
which baa elapsed since bis last exhibit, and the
aggregate coat and proceeds thereof; and if it
•hall appear to the said judges and commis
aionera that the profits of said business amount
to more than what would he a fair and just
compensation for transacting the same, tbev
shall fix the amount to be retained by him for
suhb compensation, and shall requii'c him to
pay the surplus to the Treasurer of the county
tor the use of the Commonwealth.
See. 4 I'rovidca for the giving of a cer
tificate of appointment to fbc person su-
thorized to sell, upon his giving boud with
at least two sureties iu tbe penal sum of
five hundred dollars, couditioned for his
faithful observance of the law^ko.
Sec. 5. Imposes tinea of from thirty to
two hundred dollars, & costs, for violations
of the act together with sundry terms of
imprisonment of not less than two, nor more
than six months.
Such are the first three sections of this
beautiful liquor law iu full, aud the sub
stance of the fourth and fifth; aud we doubt
not they are more ibaD sufficient to satisfy
all that a more ultra, radical, out and out
prohibitory law was never passed in tbe
State of .Maiuc or anywhere else. It not
only prohibits the sale, uuder severe penal
ties, of all sorts of liquors, and by every
quantity great or small, except "for sacra
mental, medicinal, mechanical, and artisti
cal purposes," but it absolutely prohibits
tbe manufacture of any and all liquors, ex
cept for the puipose3 just mentioned. If
this be not prohibition with a vengeance, we
know not what would be. A subsequent
section gives tbe right of search and tbe
right to sieze and destroy the liquors kept
contrary to the act; and in short, tbe law
seems to contain in itself all the ultraistnon
this subject that were ever hevrd of, and
some others which strike us as entirely new
and original, especially that registry which
is to be "signed at the end therof' by the
man who purchases the liquor, slating jar
what purpose he gets it.
\\ e have now given our readers a true
and full explanation of Genl. Packers views,
votes) and position as a prohibitory liquor
law man: and we will await with pleasure
such explanations as his partizan friends
may manufacture for this desperate emer
gency.
But for the great length of our article we
would finDh it off with a few choice extracts
from the Bedford Gazette, showing what an
infamous and unconstitutional outrage it is,
and what a uarrow-soulod, and diabolical
fanaticism it exhibits, for any man to speak
or vote for a prohibitory liquor law. We
will at our leisure hunt these matters up al
so, and in the mean lime console ourselves
with reflection that for the proper use
of a few choice extracts there is no doubt
"a good time coming."
