It will be news to many that the taking of a plebiscite is contrary to our representative system, since the people have, in towns and cities. repeatedly voted for or against certain schemes, and simply in the demonstration of public sentiment in regard to the same. And it will be news also that the Scott act gives all the machinery now required. Thescott act is the best measure of the kind that has ever been passed. but it is far from perfect. thanks to the indisposi tion of parliament to deal heroically with it as with prohibition. And the actual feeling of the people can neyer be fully ascertained until the issue is fairly and squarely put before them. Some who now oppose the Scott act say they would not oppose pro- hibition, because they do not hope for any radical reform in the habits and practices of the masses while the legal machinery helpful to that end is obtional in its applica- tion. And so the remark of the Gazene, that if the Szott act were generally adopted and successfully enforced (the parliament doing all it can to prevent that accomplish- ment) the way to the introduction of parlia- ment would be proved," is as senseless as it is untimely. The annual discussion of the prohibition question in the commons is be- coming farcical. uuu unnrvovtu -.v |\,J\4vu ......... ...... ~..-...- __-.

"If the prohibition party could persuade parliament to pass the measure they desire in the present state of public opinion the efl'ect would"inevitably be an unlicensed, unbridled liquor trattic subversive of all morality and respect for law. The sugges- tion euibodied In Mr. Mills lllffllllelll, that the opinion of the electors on th ques- tion should be taken at some convenient op- portunity reccived very ineavre support, probably because a plebiscite S contrary to the spirit of our representative system ; yet if there was manifest evidence of an earnest ,desire for such legislation is popular vote might prove useful. The `difhculty which confronts members would hardly be remov- ed, however, in this manner, since a bare majority of the vote recorded would be quite inadequate to the enforcement of pro- hibition. The course of action wisdom im- poses on the temperance party seems ob- vious. Support of their aims must be culti- vated in the country rather than in arlia- ment, for when the people are ready the law will come. [he Scott act gives all the ma- chinery now required. It that measure were generally adopted and successfully enforced the way to the introduction of prohibition would be paved, but just now the people are disposed to reject even the Scott act."

It is hardly credible that a great school of learning like the university of Toronto supported by public funds and therefore independent in a sense which can not be predicated of the other universities which have been established and are main- tained by those who represent their princi- ples-it is hardly t-redible that this great university, instead of leading the way in raising the character of our higher educa- tion; should be discouraging the ebrts of the other universities in that direction. We do not say that this is so, but we say that this is the natural meaning of the statements of Dr. Grant, and we must wait to hear the reply of the friends of the university of To- ronto, before we can decide whether they are susceptible of another explanation."
