What right has the State to counten- atnce an ackLnowledged avil, let alone derive revenue fromn it? If tha liquor trafcl is a national evil (and who says it is not) then ti l e duty of the State b t gsit against it of' its own accord as al part of its duty. The principle has beau proclaimed repeatedly, by leading, statesmen iu Eig-laud, the U nited States and Canada tha.t the question of revenue must not stand in the way of any moral reform demanded by the people. TIhe liquor traffic is the greatest evil in Canada. It causes a greatar -Waste ou the part of drunkards than auy ollier forrm of evil.

Prohibition -n il not prohibit ? Prob- ably not, but il wiii help vastly and by its naeans the liquor traffie will ha ont- lawed ; tha stamp of crime will ha plac- ad upon il, and tlough it may then at- tract many of the more vicions of the communily, it will repel the young whose conscience lias not bacome blun- ted.

The 0onlY question le-do tha people approve of sucli radi- cal rneasure P Tomorrow'e -vota will tell. If prohibition le enacted, where will tle goverument get the $7,000,000 il now receives fromn the liquor. traffic? 8-10,- 000,000 ara spantin liquor annualiy, if that expenditure ceases, the people who have formerly spent it;lu liquor, will spend il for food, clothing-, furnilura, etc. A vary large proportion of these commodities yield a custome revenue of 30 to 85 par cent. and the revenue de- rivad from $40,000,000 additioual spent lu sucli thinge will in ail probability yield mucli more tnan,$7,Ouù,O(u i re v- enue, so that thc goverument should have no fears ou thal point. le not that about right?

Tlîey need hava no fear, howaver, for the Hou. S.A.

It is difficuit to coniceive any g-reater insuit to Sir Wilfrid Lauritr. Let us examine the facts: SThe Hon. Wilfrid Laurier, leader of the Liberal party. who was then Qut of power, preparing for a general eleet- ion, recognised among the electors an important body known as prohibitionists and placed among the political measures upon which he was to appeal to the, electors the foilowing proposition:- "PRoHiBTrio.-Tliat whereas public "cattention is at present mnucli directed "to the consideration of the admittedlsy 'g'reat evils of intemperance, it is des- "irable that the mind of the people "should be clearly asçertained on the ':question of prohibition, bymeans of a "Dominion Plebiscite." Furthermore, Sir Wilfrid Laurier has given, in connection with this proposed polîce, repeated assurance, of wvhich the following is the most notable. In reply to a deputation of Winnipeg prohiibition- ists Mr. Laurier is reportedl to have said : "He would Dledge his honor that, as "soon as the Liberals came into power "at Ottawa. they would take a piebiscite «"of the Dom inion, byj which the party "'would stand, and the wili of the people "lwould be carried out, even were it to "cost power forever to the Liberal "&party."ý The Montreal "Gazette" in its editionl of the 6th Septemiber, 1894, published this statement with the following com- ment :- "This declaration carnies the Liberal "party further than they have ever gone "before. . . . Mr. Laurier lias nowr "promised that if a majoritv can be ob- "t-ained in support of -prÔhibition al $iover the Dominion, prohib ition will ba "Igranted. This is one of the largest "pomss ever made by a political lead- "er. To bring a country, nearly the -size of Europe, under prohibition, '"would be an achievement which should "satisfy the most extreme of temper- "ance entliusiasts." The Liberal party was duly elected and the Hon.Mr, Laurier made premier. Up to the present lie bas literally fulfil- led his promises, and the plebiscite un- hiampered is before the people. If t he electors of Canada uoi- show they want prohibition, is it re'tsonable, le ave decent, to asýsert that this getlma 0 uintarrishedli,, reputation would stoop tc,* the Position of apttogigiotii. andvitalsa- "1t le truce I proissd an actt1s ru "'I l'ai!an etmaeor 25,Opassed, "and hay-e exp)end(ed the samne on the "peictbut it was only to lioodwink "yo-I avechagedmym iind-I think "we had better go on as we are." Does aux' sane man think this possible of Sir Wilfrid Laurier? Does any ona believe that, assumning- sucli positîin were possible, the Hou- Sydney Fisher, would remain in the cabinet one day after sucli a decision had been announi- ced?1 This gentleman, in speaking to the resolution in the Liberal convention at Ottawa said:- 6"I propose to read the resolnticsn "which will bring about this resuit, and "which pledges the Liberal party, if re- 1'turpied to power, to give the people of "Canada an opportunity to express "their views upon the question, and the ":government in power must necessarily " carry ont the expressed will of tha "nple- There r'ono doubt that this te "iat the Liberal party woud do." No, an argument like this, against the plebiscita, le an insuit t,) the intag- rity of the honorable gentlemen,as well as to the intelligence of the electors of Canada. "ýTime la gp."
