£ A FAMLY FOUND IN WANT As Husband is in Jail for Vio- lation of Temperance Act. Victims of the Ontario temper- ance "law, that is no respecter of 'persons, a mother. with her three childfen, one of them a babe of five ~ months, was found on Thursday by a Whig representative in destitute circumstances. The husband, pro- Sector and provider, was forcibly removed by the interwention of the law. Ne provision was made for their shelter or sustenance, and but for thé © sympathy and -trust "of friends they would be suffering from starvation. disclosed : "Did the temperance people assist you in any way?" was asked, an the answer was "No." "Do you mean to say that there is: no organization for the purpose of | looking after helpless ones exposed to starvation and cold through the operation of the Ontario Tempér- ance Act and that no member of the Kingston temperance committees gave you assistance?" Again the answer was "No. | Royal "Nobody came to me when my husband was taken away. He was fined $500 and given one month in Jail, but the $500 was remitted by the magistrate, for if we had to pay | it, all my bedding and furniture would have had to go to the second- hand man and then we would have " been worse off than we are now, A friend loaned me $25, two weeks ago, and I was thereby able to pay, the rent, and buy some milk and bread for the little ones, and the | Catholic church sent me some coal. My husband has been away two weeks and will not be back for two weeks more. We were never able | ,to save anything out of his pay, and | his pay does not go on while he is | in the jail." A Whig reporter was informed | that the family of a man recently convicted of a breach of the Ontario Temperance Act and sent to jail, was in destitute circumstances. He went to the address named and found it to be a fact, "A neighbor said : "The position of these innocent ones calls for the stringent condemnation of the en- 'forcement of a law that pretends to be based upon absolute moral right, | and to have for its object the moral betterment of all the people. Hun- dreds of people everywhere were moved to compassion for the victims of drink, but here we find that after having obtained a law and penalties, innocent ones are to suffer with the guilty. The cry of the prohibition- ist was protection of the innocent, but here the innocent are to be al- lowed to starve. Tn this they are the victims of neglect on the part of the state and of those who are responsible for the laws .as they exist and the manner in which they are enforced." | Awarded First Prize.
