WHY VERMONT VOTED
AGAINST PROHIBITION
Throughout the entire United
State.* the leading phase of the “wet”
and “dry” question discussed by the
editorial writers in newspapers in the
tremendous defeat of the prohibition
forces in Vermont.
Numerous newspapers venture the
opinion that the downfall of prohibi
tion in the Green Mountain state is
a forerunner of the breaking of the
“dry” wave, and a positive indication
that the sentiment of American poo-!
pie is against national prohibition.
Some writers declare that Vermont-1
ers cast their ballots after careful
consideration of the present nineteen
( ?) “dry” states. It is stated that in
asmuch as “bootleggers,” “moonshin
ing” and the operation of ‘blind tig- j
ers” and “blind pigs” in prohibition
territory enable citizens to beat the
“dry” law, there wasn’t much use in
putting a prohibition law that does
not prohibit, on the statute books.
Here is the Reason
Why Vermont voted against prohi
bition by a vote of nearly two to one
is explained as follows in the Cincin-j
nati Enquirer:

PRICES REASONABLE
1 tation of the Anti-Saloon League, that
had caused the passage by the legis
lature of the “Perry law,” to join
the column of prohibition states, has
occasioned considerable surprise in
various directions. The emphasis of
it, as shown in the figures of the vote
on the question as submitted to the
voters, is surprising to even the (ireen
Mountain people. In the last presi
dential election Vermont cast 02,007
votes, of which 1,154 were for the
prohibition candidate. In the last
election for governor, in 1014, the
Prohibition candidate received 1,074
votes. In the special election, early
this month, on the liquor question in
real earnest, there was a total of 50,
000 votes, of which 22,121 were
against prohibition and 18,475 were
for the measure.
Hig Vote Out
At the same time there was an
election on direct primary, which car
ried by a small majority. The election
on prohibition drew out 5,000 more
votes than that on the direct primary.
Only 45 out of the 240 “towns,” as the
voting districts are called, gave pro
hibition majorities. Most decidedly
Vermont has concluded to retain the
local option law of 190”, which was in
dorsed bv a majority of 729 in the
whole state to take the place of the
,original prohibition law, following the
Maine liquor law of 1846 and 1851, to
which this state, in 1852, gave a ma
jority of 1,170 votes.
Considerable interest attaches to
the course of this state in so no
things. Vermont was the first state
admitted to the Union under the Fed
eral Constitution—in 1791—and was
the first state not only to abolish what
little African slavery there was with
in its own borders, but was the first
to oppose that institution in other
states.
Liquor Men Inactive
Significance connected with this
election and the positive result of it
lies in the fact that there was no
special effort on the part of the liquor
interests in opposition to that of the
Anti-Saloon League. Only one county
out of the fourteen, that of Orlean.
which touches the Canada line, gav<
a majority for prohibition. Evidently

the large majority of the voters be
lieve in home rule by towns or coun
ties in this business.
The people of Vermont were gener
ally moderate in the use of stimu
lants, but under prohibition they in
clined to wink at infractions of the
law. Many of them believed in per
sonal liberty in the use of rum
brought in from the Atlantic states j
and of the white whisky from Can
ada. Lager beer was unknown to
them in those days. On certain oc
casions the sturdy farmers managed
to get their egg-nog, tom and jerry
or something straight, as at town
meetings or county fairs, but without
much excess. And today, in the dis
tricts “wet” by local option, there are
not to be seen many evidences of
overindulgence.
Bad for “Dry” Wave
Comment from Montpelier tolls us
that it had been generally supposed
that Vermont would go “dry,” and
there, as elsewhere in that state, peo
ple are still engaged over analysis of
figures and conjecture as to conditions
to account for the formidable resis
tance there presented to the wave of
state-wide prohibition sweeping over
the country. One of the weak reasons
assigned is that the proposed law
made no provision for use of alcohol
for either medicinal or mechanical
purposes. A better one is perhaps
found in the fact that people, as a
whole, prefer local option; that the
counties or towns should attend each
to its own business. The dr\ districts;
lind present conditions quite satis
factory, with the belief that they will
continue to have better protection of
their views than they would have un-,
der state prohibition.
