Dr. A. E. Cooke, of Vancouver, in The Canadian Congregationalist, asserts: "The Government controls neither the manu- facture, importation, transportation, nor exportation of liquor.

Everybody--drys, wets, moderationists, police, government business men, professional men and round- ers--tell the same story.
