Drinking and drunkenness prevail in a degree under overy form of Prohib- itory legislationâ€"~total or partial. As truly, the laws against theft and mur- der do not wholly extinguish the evils against which they are aimed. Why then should those who persist in uphold- ing the laws prohibiting theft, notwith- standing innumerable robberies, foolish- ly admit that the existence of drinking and drunkenness under Prohibition con- stitutes sufficient ground for the legal- ization of the sale of intoxicants with all their baneful consequences? Per- haps the most common excuse ofiL-re-l for licensing the trnliic is that there is more drinking and drunkenness under Prohibition. The fact that this law is most bitterly opposed by two classes, namely, the men who have the liquor to sell and those who wish to buy, should be sufficient to expose the fallacy of the plea. Why should brewers and disrill- ers antagonize a law that. enlarges the market for their wares? They would not; they do not. It is because the law reduces sales, and consequently their profits, that they seek its repeal; and diminished sales means less drinking and less drunkenness. Yet we have the electorate in Christian communities~ voting out Prohibitory laws and bring- ing: in the legalized sale of liquors. Why? The only answer in sight is be cause “they love to have it so." Passing from theory to practice, what do we find to be the result of a return to license. Take the case of Charlotte town, I’. E. I. That city only recent- ly, alter an experience of Scott Act, re- pealed the law and has come under the Liquor Regulation Act. The “ Exam- iner," that gave the cold shoulder to the Scott Act, in a recent editorial dis- cussing the repeal and its consequences, says : “ The evident result is added drunk enncss with its accompaniment of mis- ery and poverty. brokeushcarted women and hall-starved children. The liq‘tor dcalers’ principle of aetion seems to be 'a short life and a merry onc.’ They seem to show no discrimination, no dis- cretion in their business.

Thanks to_ the. precautions of the Federal Government, there can ne\‘cr be a coal combine or monopoly in the region served by the Crow’s Nest coal lauds. It is true that. Ottawa had no immediate jurisdiction over the matter. the lands being owned by the Province. but the Government was in a position to insist on the conveyance of canon acres to the Dominion. This will he held wholly as a check on the prompt- ings of private or corporate greed. t‘onl miners well know that whenever a just. c unplaiut can be made that they are taking advantage of their position. the Government's reserve can be opened up and monopoly beaten all along the line. Canada leads the \vorll in respect to this provision. In no other coal field in the old lands or the new does such an effective check on monopo- ly in coal exist. Yet is is the Govern- ment to whom the credit of this, i< due that is bciugdcscribcd on the platluruis iu Centre Toronto as the slave of cut-po. rations and monopolists. Another use- ful provision in the same agreement is that the highest price which can be de- manded for coal at the pit’s mouth is $2 per too. If experience, however. shows that even this price is too high, the Government coal reserve will ul- wnys be in evidence to teach the coal men the beauties of moderation. 1-1 N- ern and southern British Columbia will be in a happy position on the coal ques- tion.â€"â€"Glube. ......... o-o -.._~. _. Peat Moss vs. Cold Storage. In its report. of 1803 the Bureau of Mines contained a paper by the late l‘llmund Jack of Fredericton, N 8., who was an enthusiast on the llt'lttcl‘ of peat moss as a substitute for eild stor- age. Mr. Jack spoke of the results in Germany, where lish packed in put moss for a fortnight were found to re- tain their freshness, and delicate and perishable fruit were found to retain all their qualities It ll'HV appears that the report has borne fruit. The Bureau of Mines has received word that a ship- ment of' perishable l'ruits sent to Eig- land from Canada by Alexander Jardiuc showed the immense utility of peat moss. Its tremendous absorbent quali- ties render it a great antidote to the atmospheric yeasts and bacteria which bring about decay. The supply in the Province is estimated as sulliacnt to last for 10,000 years, even though it shoul-l be very widely used, and, it" the results continue to be gnod, the ship- mout of Canadian fruit. to England will be put on a much firmer basis. .__ _. A Remarkable Surgical Operation. At the Eye and Ear Hospital in Dublin, on operation which. in Ireland at least, is unique. was pet'lhrln.2d by Dr. Maxwell, assisted by Dr. Mooney and Dr. Large.
