; Ton mn 30 OPTIMISTIC FEELING AMONG THOSE FIGHTING FOR | ABOLITION OF BAR. The Temperance Sentiment is Rising == The Success of the Vote in Hur. on, Peel and Welland Surpiising. Toronto, Feb. 4.--Although the lat- eat dev in Welland and the doubt 'as to the exact vote there un- dor the Canada Temperance Act ra- ther confuses the situation in that county, yet it is possibie now to take a general survey of the voting in the three ) counties of Huron, Peel 'nnd Welland and to attempt an esti- Jnato of the results. * For those in favor of the spread of temperance legislation the effect of the voting must be to bring a decided feeling oi optimism, ~The enormous majority in Welland itself, all are encouraging Yoargin, and even the close result in Huron itself, all are encouraging to temperance advocates. For as far as Peel and Welland are concerned anny prophets had predicted decisive majorities against the act, and ap- parently fow had anticipated any such majority as that secured in Haron. In fact, editorial comments through- out the province sound a note of vie- tory for temperance and a warning to the liquor interests scarcely equal- led hitherto. The mere victory of the temperance voters is not the only ground of optimista. The significant fact is that this victory was won under con- ditions which previously had been de- elared almost hopeless. Local op- tion victories had often been explain- ed on the ground that the women had votes and that the "'recistration vote," the new men added to the lists, did not figure, and that, there fore, the local option elections were not fair indications of what would happen in. a general test. Under the Canadian Temperance: act, however, the women did not vote and the lists used were practically the same #» in provincial clections. In these giroumstance the success of the tem- péranco cause is - not only encourag- ing--it'is surprising. It also gives rather a. significant commentary . on what 'may happen when the abolish- the-bar issue goes to the people at the mext general election. There were those wha thought temperance sentiment in Ontario had reached its senith and was on the declive. Tt is flow. apparent rather that this temperance sentiment is still. rising and that the high water mark is not in the past but iu the future.
