whereas it it definite known that the present inspector is not in sympathy with the principle of the act and has farther contrary to the instructions issued by the government not sought to know whether the law is lo lated or not unless information it laid before him by tome other person and ahereas the access of the act large depends on the efficiency and willingness of the government

ftt rrfitffttftpi rttoty onr connty hotel inspector the following communication appeared in the last issue of the mulon kev and is very significant to the editor of the yost deui sra tou are to be commended for vour manlv utterances in regard to the inefficiency of the present inspector there must be some assignable reason for the wsv things have been allowed to move either the government officer must be lacking in executive ability or he must be playing into the hands of the violaters of the law in the towns of the count in either case the efficiency of the law is jeopardized and there is no means of test ing its real value to a community where the officer who receives government remunera- i tion and has conscientioua convictions of his duty to the people does what he ought for its enforcement it is stated that mr f rarer asserts that he has no dutv to per form in the wsv of ferreting out the sinks of iniquity where the desires of the deprai ed are gratified it is said that be has asserted that his dot is to proceed when charges are made or complaints offered or information laid then in tho name of common sense and common manhood arfq our country s honor what does he receive his money for did not the government commissioner at the instiga tion of government issue instructions to the inspectors relative to their duties and laving special stress on their re bponsibflitv for doing all in their power to search out the breakers of the law do not the officers of other counties cities and towns follow these instructions to the letter and are they not constantly on the alert to secure conviction of those who infringe on the stututes 1 whv cannot our officer do the tame if his conscience is so strongly sgsmst the prohibition moi e- ment that he cannot throw the weight of his offical authority on the side of the enforcement of the canada temperance act when be gets paid for that very thing why does he not step down and out and give place to some other man who wfll if it is true thst the inspector fraternizes with the hotel keepers and is not anxious to secure for them their just deserts then m the name of justice in the interests of the community and for the sake of the reputa tion of a good law his case ought to be the subject of the most searching inquiry let the approaching temperance conven tion on the 9th inst deal with that matter and ask the gov t to appoint a man whose moral conviction will lead him to do what the requirements of his office demand whether he be a scott act man or not i am sir yours 4c xxx y km then j
