LITTU HIE WOOFS:
According to the promise made last week
we re-msao our exposure of 43 ENKRAL PACK
ER'S views and votes UN the Main Liquor
Law which passed the Senate fti 1852, as
exhibited by the .Journal of the Senate for
that year.
Ou the 3d March, 1852, Mr. (Jarothers,
from the Committee ou Vice and immorali
ty, reported Senate Bill, No 419, out it led
". hi net to piohibit the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors." 1 See Senate
Journal, V<d. 1. p.
March 18th, a motion was made to con
sider the bill. Tin's was objected to, aud
the orders of the day called. A motion
wis 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 the orders. On this motion
PACKER voted yea. .See Sen. Jour., Vol.
I. p 4,80.
March 22 I, the bill was taken up for
consideration; and on the question whether
the first section should pass, the yea* aud
nays were called, and the section passed by
a VOTE of 19 yeas to I F nays. PACKEU be
ing one of the yeas. See Sen. Jour., Vol.
i, p. 515.
The bill was further debated and consid
ered during (hat day, and the day fol'ow
;n?, as appears by the same volume of the
Journal, at pages 515, 53-, 533, &tf., and
the yens and nuy were frequently called on
different Sections of the bill, and i- 1 (very
rnsffnee fie n / n-of WAI. P. PACKER is
found recorded in Jcivor of the bi/l, and
Hong with the names of the other -warm
friends of that prohibitory Liquor law.
March 315t—1853, the sections having
been all agreed to, the bill came up oil ILK
final passage; and on the question, "shall
'-the bill pass? The yeas and nays were
"required by Mr. Crabb and Mr. PACKER,
"and were as follows: viz:
">! EAS. Messrs. Barnes, Cavothcr®, OBI
"son, E VMS, Portion, Guernsey, Hamilton,
'-Hamlin, Haslctt, Hogc, McFarland, Mc
"Murtrie, Malonc, P.VCKEH,■ llobertsun
'•Sanderson, aud Slifer.—l7.
"Nays. Messrs. Bailey, Buekalcw, Grabb.
"Darlington, Fniilty, Fulton, Jones, Kin
"zer, Kuukel, MeCuslin, Matthias, Muhlen
"burg, Myers, Shinier, and Walker, Speak
"■/ —ls.
"So the question was determined in the
affirmative." Seo Senate Journal, of 1852
Vol. 1, p. 012.
Such is GENERAL WM. P. PACKER'S
record in the Senate of 1852, and such are
iiis votes upon the subject of the prohibi
tory liquor law which passed the Senate
• hat year, as proved bv tin: Journal of the
Senate, which is the only authorized record
of proceedings. And yet his pirtrzan
friends, and the tuipiinciplcd press which
supports hiiu for Governor, are moan enough
and reckless euongh, to deny that he is or
ever was in favor of prohibition, and round
ly abuse all who asssrt that lie voted for
prohibitory liquor laws. 'We say —e
have these Seuate Journals in cwrr oincc,
and call show them, day, and date, and
naga, to any man who wishes to see them,
who desires to know the whole truth on
this subject. And we will here remark that
not only did Gonl. Packer tuake .speeches
in tiie Senate iu favor of the bill, and vote
■is hero proved, but according to the well
rcnieuibcred log'c of the Jledford Gazette,
hf* gone thn casting coif on thf.finul passage
of' tkii mons'fo n .Maine Litjuor Law.
For on looking at the final vote, it will be
observed the bill passed by 17 yeas to 15
nays. Consequently if Uenl. l'.iekcr had
Voted nay, the hill would have been defeat
ed on its final passage, by a tie vote, and
evidently his vote for the bill was what sa
ved it.
!>nt the same recklessness and disregard
of the truth which has heretofore denied
that Packer was a prohibitionist, may also
deny that (tie bill which passed the Senate
in 1852 was a prohibitory Maine Law.
The hiil was made up of fiftecu sections,
and is therefore too long for publication
entire, but in order that all doubts may bo
■removed on this point, and :r)l mouths stop
ped, we will give our readers some extracts
from the bill as specimens. As before sta
ted, it was entitled, -7c/ to prohibit
Ute mnnufatittrc ami sate of hrtloxicaliiig
liquors ." And to demonstrate that the bill
itself corresponded with the title, we pub
lish the first throe sections of it, as follows:
•Sre. 1. He it enact eh, Ac. That no person
shall be allowed at any time, to manufacture, or
.rll, by himself, his clerk, servant, or agent,
directly or indirectly, any intoxicating liquors,
whether the same be spirituous, vinous, or
in ill. or a mixture of thesame. or any of them.
•>r any other liquor possessing intoxicating
pronerties, except as hereinafter provided.
SEC. 2. Ibe judges of the court of Quarter
■Sessions, and the County Commissioners, on
the first Monday of <fnly r annually, or as soon
thereafter as may be convenient, may appoint
suitable persons of well-known, honest, tem
plate, and sober habits, to buy, or manufac
ture and sell at some convenient point in such
ol the Townships, boroughs, and cities, within
the county, as they may deem expedient and
proper, viae* andother liquors, for sacramental,
medicinal, mechanical and artistical purposes,
AND son NO OTUI:C PURPOSE* WHATSOEVER.—
Such person sh ill he appointed for the term o
one year, but may he remove-* at any time at
the pleasure of said judges :rd commissioners
for violating this act.
SEC 8. That c.acli person appointed to sell
liquors as aforesaid, shall k ;ep an accurate ac
count in writing of all tie liquor bought or
mmufietnre,! by him, specifying the qimutity
of each kind purchased or in ami fact i, red, the
jirice of that purchased, the name of the person
from whom it was purchased, and the date of
the purchase, the quantity of each kind sold,
and the Isle of the sale, its twice, the name,
residence, and occupation of the person to
whom it was sold, and the purpose for which it
was purchesed by liini; and he shall cause the
person to whom the sate is made, to sign the said
sperinra'ion at the end thereof; he shall semi
annually, if required, on a day and at * place
'to be appointed by said judges and commis
sioners, whereof public notice shall be given in
one or more newspapers puhlishod in the coun
ty, exhibit up >u hia oath or solemn affirmation
the took or books in which said account and
specification are kept, to lie said judges and
commissioners, together with a balance sheet
-showng the quantity of each kind of liquor
bought aud sold by him during the period
which tins elapsed since his last exhibit, and the
aggregate cost and proceed* thereof; and if it
shall appear to the said judge* and commis
siouera that the profits of said business amount
to more than what would he a fair and just
compensation for transuding the same, they
shall fix ibe amount to he retained by him for
sue ompensation. and shall requite bint to
piy the surplus to the Treasurer ot the county
fir i he use of the Commonwealth.
See. I I'loviue.t for the giving of a cer
jfi.ate o: app'-iijtirioat to d!u person au
liriozed to self, upon his giving bond with
at least two sureties iu the penal sain of
five Hundred dollars, eoudiiioned tor Lis
faithful ob J crvj!:-*e of '.lie lawytc.
Sec. 5. Imposes fines of from thirty to
two hundred dullars, & costs, for violations
of the act together with sundry terms of
imprisonment of not less than two, nor more
thnn six months.
Sueli ar-' the first three sections of this
beautiful liquor law iu full, and the sub
stance of the fourth uud fifth; and wo doubt
not they are more than sufficient to satisfy
all that a more ultra, radical, out and out
prohibitory law wa. s never passed in the
State of Maine or anywhere else. It uot
only prohibits the sale, under severe penal
ties, of all sorts of liquors, and by every
quantity great or small, except "for sacra
mental, medicinal, mechanical, and artisti
caj purposes," but it absolutely prohibits
the manufacture of auy and all liquors, ex
cept for the puipose3 just mentioned. If
thus 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, the law
seems to contain iu itself all the uftraisioon
his subject that were ever heird of, aud
some others which strike us as entirely new
and original, especially that registry which
is ;o be "signed at the end therof" by the
man who purchases the liquor, stating Jor
what purpose he. gets it.
We have now given our readers a true
and full explanation of Genl. Packers views,
votes* and position as a prohibitory liquor
law man; and wo will await with pleasure
such explanations as his partisan friends
may manufacture for this desperate emer
gency.
But for the great length of our article we
would flush 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, aud diabolical
fanaticism it exhibits, for any man to speak
or vote for a prohibitory liquor law. U'c
will at our leisure hunt these matters tip 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
"a good time coming."
