lowing a two hour meeting of iho cabinet council hon a ii ferguson issued a state ment to tho public in it he says the pronouncement shows that thn majority of those voting favored the ontario temperance act the gov eminent is determined to pursue a consistent course the basis upon which government rests under our in stltutlons is that the majority must prevail disregard of this- principle breeds dlsoontent which must inevit ably develop into serious disorder the popular will will be recognised nnd accepted und the act will remain upon the statute book the govern ment will use its best efforts to give it efficient onforcetnenl the fact that the majority aa- com pared with the vote of 1919 ha boen much reduced may make it more dif ficult properly to enforce the act as public opinion is an essential fab tor in law enforcement liut as so op portunlty was given to thoao opposed to the legislation to express their view and as a majority pronounced against that view the government expects that the verdict will bo accepted and all eftor la mad a toward the better an foroemoju or uio act will have thi support 0 the people irrespective of their personal views soma disappointed moderation isid ore suggesting a measure of local option for the cities which voted wet itespectlng this the globe says edl torully the province uu a whole will have little sympathy for the demand fur local option on tha liquor issu demand which was started as soon as the swing of the returns began show that onturlo hud voted r6r the continuance of the ontario temper ance act local option played no

called liberties if uqbktr is sold ip- toronto hamilton or ottawa people living in territory that voted dry will be able to secure it almost as readily as those residing in the cities damod in other words with our easy means of torn munlcatlon the sale of liquor in the cities which voted wet would thwart the will of the people of the whole province to practically tho same ex tent as if it were sold in every con stituency from the ottawa luver to tho manitoba boundary out of the 111 ridings in the pro vince u is calculated on the basis of figures thursday that more than seventy voted for the o t a that is approximately the number of mr fergusons supporter in tho legisla ture yet neither he nor any member of his cabinet would think of allowing the minority to dictate government policies mr ferguson would not countenance for a moment the setting up of a special law in one of these opposition ridings contrary to that which hts seventyodd followers be lieved the best for their constituencies and the province the street comment heard the day after the vote bears out exactly wtut was stated during the campaign the liquor interests are never satisfied we ventured the opinion that if oov- ernraerft control of the sale or liquor n sealed packages were approved at the poll it would not be long before an agitation arose to have the sale of beer by tho glass or oven a return to something approaching the oldfashion ed burs that has been the ritault tn other provinces which have gone wot and thorewcre no signs that wot sen timent would be less restrained i on tario the prediction has come abundantly true before the completo returns are received first wo hear the demand for local option in cltlea that voted wet reports are given circulation that tho canservatlvamem-
