mm FOR PROHIIBTION.
REID THE PROOFS!
According to tbe promise made last week'
we resume our exposure of GENERAL PACK
ER'S views and votes oo the Main Liquor
Law which passed the Senate in 1852, as
exhibited by the Journal of the Senate for
that year-
Oa the 3d March, 1852, Mr. Carothers,
from the Committee on Vice and limuorali
ty, reported Senate Bill, No. 419, entitled
l Kin act to ptohibit the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors ." See Senate
Journal, Vol. I. p- 363.
March 18tb, a motion was made to con
sider the bill. This was objected to, aud
the 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
notion was lost, —two-thirds being necessa
ry to suspend tbe orders. Ou this motion
PACKER voted yea. See Sen. Jour., Vol.
1, p. 480.
March 22J, the bill was taken up for
consideration; and on the question whether
the first section should pass, the yoas 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., 4 01.
1, p. 515.
Tbe bill was further debated and consid
ered during that day, and the day follow
ing, as appears by the sarue volume of the
Journal, at pages 515, 532, 533, &c., and
the yeas and nays were frequently called on
different sections of the bill, and in every
instance the n int'of WSI. F. PACKER is
found recorded in Javor of the bill, and
Gong with the names of the other warm
friends of that prohibitory Liquor law.
March Cist—lßs2, the sections having
been all agreed to, the bill came up on its
final passage; and on the question, "shall
"the bill pass? The yeas aud nays were
"required by Mr. Crabb aud Mr. PACKER,
"and were as follows: viz:
"YEAS. Messrs. Barnes, Carother.% Cai
"son, livans,Fernon, Guernsey, Hamilton,
"Hamlin, Haslett, lloge, MeFarland, Me
"Murtrie, Malone, PACKER, Robertson
"Sanderson, and Siifer.—l7.
"Nays. Messrs. Bailey, Buckalew, Crabb,
"Darlington, Frailcy, Fulton, Jones, Kin
"zer, Kuukel, McCaslin, Matthias, Muhlen
"burg, Myers, Shiuier, and Walker, Speak
"er—ls.
"So the question was determined in the
affirmative." See Senate Journal, of 1852
Vol. 1, p. 612.
Such is GENERAL WM. F. PACKER'S
recotd in the Senate of 1852, uud such are
Lis votes upon the subject of the prohibi
tory liquor law which passed the Senate
that year, as proved by the Journal of the
Senate, which is the only authorized record
of proceedings. And yet his pirtizun
friends, and the unprincipled press which
supports him for Governor, are mean enough
and recklesß enongh, to deny that lie is or
ever was in favor of piohibition, and round
ly ahuse all who asssrt that lie voted for
prohibitory liquor laws. We say again,
have these Senate Journals in our omcc,
and can show then), day, and date, and
rage, to auv man vho wishes to see theiu,
or who desires to know the whole truth on
this subject. And we will here remark that
not only did Genl, Packer make speeches
in the Senate in favor of the bill, and vote
as here proved, but aecording to the well
remembered logic of the Bedford Gazette,
he gave the casting vote on the final passage
■of this monstrous Maine Liquor Law.
l'or on looking at the final vote, it will be
observed the bill passed by 17 yeas to 15
■tuy . Consequently if GenL Packer bad j
v..ti >1 n.av, the bill would have been defeat- :
•od Oil its final passage, by a tie vote, and j
e,stonily his vote for the bill was what sa- j
lint the same recklessness and disregard !
of the truth which has heretofore denied 1
that Packer was a prohibitionist, may also !
deny that the bill which passed the Senate !
in 1852 was a prohibitory Maine Law. j
The bill was m ide up of fifteen sections, i
and is therefore too long for publication i
entire, but in order that all doubts may be !
reinov"d on this point, and ail mouths stop-'
- i, -.v- w'H give our readers some extracts I
..•in ■:<- nil as specimens. As before sta- i
ted, u was eutiiled, "Jin .let to prohibit j
the v.anufaaure ami sale of intoxicating I
liquors ." And to demonstrate that the bill !
itself corresponded with the title, we pub
lish the first three sectious of it, as follows:
KKC. 1. Be it enacted, fce. That no person
shall be allowed at any time, to manufacture, nr
• by himself, his clerk, servant, or.igent,
vlly O; indirectly, any intoxicating liquors,
".vaether tits same be spirituous, vinous, or
malt, or a mixture of the same, or any of them,
vr any other liquor possessing intoxicating
properties, except as hereinafter provided.
SEC. 2. The judges of the court of Quarter I
Sessions, and the County Commissioners, on j
the first Monday of July, annually, or as soon 1
thereafter as may be convenient, may appoint
suitable persons of v/ell-known, honest, tem- ;
perate, aud sober habits, to buy, or manufac- j
ture and sell at some convenient point in such j
ot the Townships, boroughs, and cities, within !
the county, as they may deem expedient and'
proper, triMj aad other liquors, for sacramental, I
medicinal, mechanical anil artistical purposes, |
AND FOR -NO OTLHUT PURPOSES WHATSOEVER JJ
.Such person shall he appointee for the term o
one year, but may lie removed at any time at
the pleasure of said judges i rd Commissioners
tor violatinglbis act.
SEC 3. That each person appointed to sell
liquors as aforesaid, shall k icp an accurateac
count in writing of all t'e liquor bought or
manufactured by him, specifying the quantity
ofeuchkiud purchased or manufactured, the
price of that purchased, tbe name of the person I
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, the name,
residence, and occupation of the person to
wiiotu it was sohi, and the purpose for which it
w*s purchased by him; and he shall cause the
person to irhom the sale is made, to sign the said
specifi a.ion at the end thereof. j tie shall semi
annually, if required, on a day and at a place
t > be appointed by said judges and cemniis
ouers, whereof public notice shall be given in
or more newspapers published in the coun
y.- xh'tit upon his oath or solemn affirmation
tb- l).i, Aor books in who!) sued account and
. i it;-ation are kept, to the said judges and
commissioners, together with a balance sheet
showing the quantity of each kind of liquor
bout. ♦ and sold by him during tlie period
which has elapsed since his last exhibit, and the
aggregate cost and pro ved* thereof; and if it
shall ipcar to the said judges and cotnmis
.it," . that the profits of said business amount
o more than wb„i would be a fair and just
jrrponsation for transacting the same, they
hill fix .ne amount to be retained by him for
ucb compensation, arid shall requite him to
,iy ♦bo surplus to the Treasurer of the county
"je use of the Commonwealth.
Sec. 4 Provide* for the giving ofa cer
.jcate of appointraeat to the person au-
hriozed to sell, upon bis giving bond with
at least two sureties in the penal sum of
five hundred dollars, conditioned for his
faithful observance of the law,&c.
Sec. 5. Imposes fines of from thirty to
two hundred dollars, & costs, for violations
of the act together with sundry terms of
imprisonment of not less than tu-o, nor more
than six months.
Such arc the first three sections of this
beautiful liquor law iu full, and the sub
stance of the fourth and fifth; and we doubt
not they are more than sufficient to satisfy
all that a more ultra, radical, out and out
prohibitory law was never passed in the
State of Maine 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
the manufacture of any and all liquors, ex
cept for the puipose3 just mentioned. If
♦his be not prohibition with a vengeance, we
know not what would be. A subsequent
section gives the right of search and the
right to sieze and destroy the liquors kept
contrary to the act; and in short, tbe law 1
seems to contain in itself all the ultraismon
his subject that were ever heard 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, stating Jor
what purpose he gets it.
We have now giveu our readers a true
and full explanatiou of Genl. Packers views,
votes, and position as a prohibitory liquor
law man; and we will await with pleasure
such explanations as his partizun friends
may manufacture for this desperate emer
gency.
Put for tbe great lengfh of our article we
would finish it off with a few choice extracts
from the Bedford Gazette, showing what an
infamous and unconstitutional outrage it is,
and what a uarrow-soulcd, 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 time console ourselves
with the reflection that for the propter use
of a few choice extracts there is no doubt
"a good time coming."
