By a vote of 80 to 18, with Allan Studholme lined up with the Govern. ment, the amended amendment to Mr. Rowell's motion was carried early this mernipg. Four members on the Lib- eral side and three on the Conserva- | tive side were absent. The absent Liberals were' McKay, Evanturel and Racine and Kohler. Three of then were paired with the absentee ony servatives, viz, Col. Matheson, A. 1. Mahafley and Gan ney. Not since the present session com- menced has the nublic shewn such interest in the deliberations of the Legislature as was evinced yesterday. Scores of clergymen were present, some of them even making their way into the press gallery to get a better vantage point. The ladies' gallery had not a vacant seat. and special chairs had to be provided beside the Speak- or's dais to accommodate the friends lof the members and others who were unable to find seats in the galleries. Mr. Rowell said one of the sionifi- cant signs of the times was the grow- ing recognition on the part of the people of the great evil of the liquer traffic. He quoted statistics and opin- jons from author:ties showing that the | three great evils confronting rocioty were--the opium trade, the liquor traflic and the white slave traffic. "The open bar is a nuisance and a social pest," he raid. cial alike to church and state. and therefore it is time for its abolition." There were 1,530 bar licenses in On- tarjo, 220 shop licenses and 53 club li- icenses. The bar represented an over- whelming percentage of the trafic. There was about $81,000,000 invested in the business generally. The Gov- 'lernment's receipts amounted to near- ly $300,000 yearly. In &xplaining the meaning of his tion, he said it would wipe: cut in one stroke the great retail traffic. Local option would continue to work on any residue of the traffic not wip- led out. Such legislation' would strike a vulnerable point and accomplish great good. Once the bar was abolish- ed, it would never be restored. No political party would ever think of restoring it. The word 'prohibition' was a misnomer, because the Govern- ment must work within the limits of its power. The Privy Council had decided that the province had no con- trol over the manufacture or impor- tation of liquors. He did not con- sider that abolition of the bar meant wiping out the traffic completely, but the existing evils would be reduced as far as practicable. He fully rea- lized that there should be no discrim- ination between the club and bar. Regarding law enforcement, he said that officials should be in sympathy with the law. A great difficuity was the interference of the liquor people in polities, and the only solution waa the removal of the enforcement of law from politics entirely. The" cause of dissatisfaction amomg the traveling public with respect to .. poor hotel accommodation was on ac- count of the bar in most cases being the main source of revenue. Hotels, therefore, did not provide the required accommodation.
