mean by temperance people those who favor the total prohibition of the liquor traffic there can not possibly bo any half way course iu this matter the senate must 1 either reformed or removed or all hope of securing prohibition must be abandoned the senate has declared itself bitterly hostile to prohibitory legislation it bag the power to effectually block all j shell legislation no inatljer although every memr ber of the house of commons and every elector in the dominion where in favor of prohibition and art entiy desited it from- this out it will simply be waste of time for the commons to attempt to further restrict the liquor traffic until the senate is abolished or its members in some way made amenable to the people the senate as at present constituted hase power entirely in its own hands and itjns shown thapeople that it is determined to usejit to the uttermost in the very face of the declared wishes of the peoples representa tives twice tver declared and in the face also of the people themjselves senators i i declared ija effect that they wfll not permit prohibitory legislation in tni country they haye been given this power by the people we haye often pointed out that it is a dangerous power the action of the senate unmistakably proves the correctness of our statement and since they have seenjfit to abuse this power by frustrating the will of the people and placing them at defiance they should be deprived of it tit is time the question who is to rule tins country the people who own i ot the few decrepid worn out fossils who have been appointed to the senate becanse they are not fit for any other public position which carries with it a salary was finally settled unless- the senate is removed lor remodeled all this excitement and turmoil and expense and labor over the scott act will have gone for nothing it is nonsense trying to carry or even enforce the scott act execpt as a preliminary to prohibition in fact it would not have been carried in but few if any constituencies bat to show the desire for prohibition but it is now clear we can not get prohibition so long as the senate occupies its present position and l there is no hope of a change in that posi tion because the members are not in any wajy responsible to the people or amenable to public opinion under these circum- btances therefore there are but two courses open to temperance people they must either abondon their temperance principles and give up agitating for prohibition in any form or else they must go earnestly toj work b to place the senate in such a position that its members will be responsible to those for whomjhey are supposed fir legislate we believe that if the temperanae people of all shades of politics unite they can easily accomplish this every temperance re former be he grit or tory in politics must positively refuse to vote for anypareamen- i tary candidate no matter what his other qualifications may be who will not pledge himself to use both his vote and influence in parliament to secure at once such a change in the senate as will make it sensi tive to- public sentiment and responsibility to the people interestedpoliticians may ay what they will but this must be the issue fbrlhe future if any effective measure of prohibition is to be gained and those who are not prepared to face the issue in this way may just as well abandon their prohibitory professions as they are de- cidedly of too superficial a nature to be of any practical jvalue this is a question upon which temperance people should con sider if- any person can see any other wayout of thedifficulty than that we have suggested we shall be glad to hear from them kegina in which there is a 1 account of the mm mm wmibiffiiibsjisetasiai the votan ieixilfilter h or oft
