"Bo the'qiicsnon was'deleruiined in the
affirmative." Sec Senate Journal, of 1§52
Vol. 1, p. <s§..
Such is General Wm. F. Packer's
record iu the Senate pt .1852, and such arc
his votes upou the su|>yeet of the prohibi
tory liquor law which the Senate
that year, as proved iy the Journal of the
Senate, which is the only authorized record
of proceedings. And yet Lis pirtizan
friends, and the unprincipled press which
supports him for Governor, are mean wno igh
and reckless enofigh, to deny that he is or
ever was in favor of prohibition, and round
ly abuse all wher assail that he voted for
prohibitory liquor laws. We say agaiD. we
have these Seuatc Journals in our office,
anil can show them, day, and date, and
nage, to any man who wishes to see them,
or who desires to know the whole truth on
this subject. And we will here remark that
not only did Geql.,l'ackcr make speeches
in the Senate iff VHvor of the bill, und vote
as hero proved, Uit according to the woll
retucuibered logic of tho Bedford Gazette,
he gavet/ie casting vote on the final passage
of this monstrous Jtfuine Liquor Law.
l'or on looking at the final vote, it will be
observed the bill passed fcy 17 yeiis to 15'
nays. Consequently if Gcnl. Packer bad
voted nay, the bill would have been defeat
ed on its.dual passage,hy a tie vote, and
evideutly his votg f*r the bill was what sa
ved it.
But the same recklessness and disregard
of tbe tr||bj(|i|fckfcs heretofore denied
that Packer was a prohibitionist, may also
deny that the bill wlq C h passed the Senate
in 1852 was a Yrtdtibiiory Maine Law.
T'ue biil whs nude up of fifteen sections,
and is therefore too long for publication
entire, hut in order that all doubts may be
removed on this point, and all mouths stop
ped, we will give our readers some extracts
from the bill as specimens. As before sta
ted, it was entitled, to prohibit
the manufacture ami sate fiJ intoxicating j
liquors." Ami to demonstrate thullho bHI j
itself corresponded with the tale, we pub- j
lisli the first three sections of it, as follows:
SEC. 1. Be U enacted. Ac. That no person !
shall he allowed at any time, to manufacture, or
l>y linnself, his clerk, servant,- or agent,
• iivc.ily oj- indirectly, . any, intoxicating liquors, I
whether the same bo s;ifituous, vinous, or
in ;lt, or a mixture of the sauie, or any of thenr, i
.•r any other liquor possbssina intoxicating j
piop,-ujcs, except as heroinaftex provided.. j
Sec. 2. Ihe judges of the court of Quarter!
tvrssioos, aud the t.onnty Commissioners, on 1
the tiist Muudny ol July, annually, or as soon
thereafter as may he coaumjent, may appoint
suitable persons of well-known, honest, tem
perate, arid sober habits, to buy, or manufac
ture and sell at some convenient point in such
<>t the Township*,, boroughs, and cities, within
the county, as they piav deem expedient and
proper, wines and other liquors, for sacramental,
Tne.la ttLaJy mechanical, and orlistical purposes',
and for no oTtirrt vvniypK* wHAisoevaa.—
Sucli person shall be ajipoiqtio for the term of
one year, but may be removed at any time at
the pleasure of said judges ltd commissioners
for violating this act.
SEC 8. That Q.icti pct-so- appointed to sell
liquors as afor-said, shall k V p an accurate ac
count in'of alt rte Irqu * bought or
manufactured by him, specifying the quant-itv
of each kind purchased or manufectiirod, the
price of that purcbuskd, tire nameoftlw jierloii
from whom it kvtw purcm*ed. ami rhedareof
the purchase,the (jmmfiiy of each kind sold
and the ,ic of the sate, its j>rice, the name!
residence, and occupation of the person to
whom it was sold, and the purpose for which it
was purchased by liiiu; and he shall cause the
person to tehom the tule it mats, to sign the said
specijica/iPH at the end thereof; be shall semi
annually, if required, ou a day and at place
to he-appointed bjr said judges and commis
sioner*, whufeol public notice shall he given in
one or more newspapers published in the coun
ty, exhibit upon his oath or solemn alliroration
tne hook or books in whiet, said account and
specification are kept, to Hie said judges and
commissioners, together with a balance sheet
showing the quantity, qf.eoli IJud of liquor
Vought and s..ld by him nurin| thd'period
which has elapsed shwe bifc last exhibit. and the
aggregate cos* and proceeds thereof; und if it
snail appear to the said judges and commis
sioners that the profits of said business amount
to more than what worth! be a fair and just
compensation for transacting the same, they
shall fi* the amount to 'be retained bv him for
.-uch compensation, and shall rcqniie liini to
pay the surplus to the Treasurer of the county
for the use of the Commonwealth.
Sec. I I'ro vide* for the giving of a cer
tificate of appointment to tbe person au-
UriozeJ to sell, upoti his giving bond with
at least two sureties in the penal su:u of
five hundred dollars, conditioned lor his
faithful observance of the law,&c.
Sec. 5. Imposes titles of tipiii to
tiro huudred dollars, & costs, for violations
of the act together with sundry terms of
imprisonment of not less than two, nor more
Hum six months_
Such ar the first three sections of this
beautiful liquor law in full, and the sub
stance of the fourth aud fifth; and wo doubt
not they are more than sufficient to satisfy
all that a more ultra, radical, out and out
prohibiten- law wr.s never passed in the
State of Maine or anywhere else. It not
Ojly prohibits the sale, uudor severe peual
tfes, of all sorts of liquors, and by every
aftiantity great or small, except "for sacra
mental, medicinal, mechanical, aud nrtisti
cal purposes," but it absolutely prohibits
the uiunufaaturQ ,4 any and all liquors, ex
cept fob (Tie se's ju'tlt menfioned. if
this be not prohibition with a vengeance, we
knnw udt what Would be. A subsequent
section gives the light of search and the
right to sioze and destroy the liquors kept
contrary to the act; and in short, the law
Sgcius to contain in itself all the ultraisin ou
fiiy subject that were ever heard cf, and
some others which strike us as entirely new
and original, especially that registry which
is to he "signed at the end therof" by the
msyri who purchases the liquor, slating Jar
what /utrpote he gets it.
We have now given our readers a true
and full explanation of Uenl. Packers views,
votes, and position as a prohibitory liquor
law man: and wc will await with pleasure
suth explanations as his partizan friends
may manufacture for this desperate emer
gency.
Hut for the great length of our article we
would finish it off with a few choice extracts
from the lladford Gazette, showing what an
infamous and unconstitutional outrage it is,
and what a uarrow-soulcd, and diabolical
fanaticism it exhibits, for any niau to speak
or vote for a prohibitory liquor law. We
will at our leisure himt these matters up al
so, and in the mean time console ourselves
with the reflection that for the proper use
of a few choice extracts there is no doubt
i'a good time coming. w
