Download or read book Stories of Maine Classic Reprint written by Sophie Swett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Maine The stories of the smallest, the least important, the most favored by fate of the United States of the New World, are well worth the telling. It may therefore be wondered that those of Maine - historically the beginning of New England, the scene of the bloodiest Indian wars, the place where different European nations contended most fiercely for supremacy, and whose records are so dramatic that they read like folklore and legend rather than veritable history - should have been so little told. Many of those that have been told are to be found in histories that are out of print and forgotten, and in the musty folios of the historical societies, where the young people, at least, seldom look. Some not yet, and perhaps never to be read, have been written by glaciers and fossil remains on rocky headlands and in obscure caves. In remote graveyards strange foreign names and inscriptions hint of others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Maine Law The men who devised the Maine law may justly claim Cotter Morison's title of "moral inventors." Yet no invention has ever called forth more opposition and ridicule than theirs. To many it has seemed in the field of social reconstruction what perpetual motion is in the field of mechanics, - a thing that simply will not work. Prejudice, tradition and financial interest have ranged themselves against it. Many confusing factors have entered into its history and workings to perplex those whose natural sympathies are with legislation of this type. In an interview in the Wheeling Intelligencer (Oct. 26, 1883), Gov. Robie, the then chief executive of Maine, remarked: "It is really very difficult to get all the facts of the case. Almost every man forms his own judgment and it is likely to differ from that of almost every other man." In reading carefully upon this subject, however, certain things of which we can be fairly sure, gradually stand out. These we should summarize as follows: 1. That the alcoholism of pre-prohibition Maine was of a desperate type. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maine, Vol. 2: A History Some attention was given to national issues, the tariff was mentioned, and also the disposal of the public lands. Clay and the Whigs had brought forward various measures for distributing the proceeds of the sales, with special grants of money or land to the States wherein the land sold was situated. The Democrats of Maine were inclined to oppose such bills, on the ground that the land was the property of all the States and should not be given away. The protectionists, however, even in the East, approved of distribution bills because they lessened the income of the government and so made a tariff more necessary. The Kennebec Journal said that if a long view were taken, distribution appeared a wise measure, that it would settle the question if anything could and give the old States their just share, which otherwise they would lose. It will secure a great degree of steadiness and permanence in the tariff, ' which is of more importance, if possible, than the rate of duties.
