tain, that- Mr. Mowat does know that there is a license system in existence which has been made to yield a hand- some revenue to the provincial t1 easury, Temperance on Wheels. Temperance legislation received some attention in the session of the Ontario Assembly just closed, and a good deal of ligh: was let in upon the “true in- wardness” of the h’lowat Government’s professions of special rsgard for the temperance cause. On being taunted by the leader of the Opposition with insincerity in trifling with the question of prohibition by the passage oi local optiOn measures, etc, instead of by submitting prohibition to the vote or the whole province, Mr. Mowat put- the true position of his party on record by declaring that prohibition is not and has not been a plank in the Reform platform, and that the sentiment of the Province is not in favor of such legis- lation. There is one thing quite cer- Cartwright, Laurier, et 9], remain in public life? It is not at all likely. The present state of Mr. Blake’s health, however, and the claims of his private business prevent any reasonable hope of his return to public life. It is alto- gather likely that the reform party will be compelled to look elsewhere, if they are determined. upon a new leader and a. new policy. a. new policy that would be gladly acceptable to a considerable section of the Canadian people. But would it be pessible to unite the reform party firm- ly and loyal‘iy enough to ensure success upon such a. policy, so long as Messrs. A considerable portion of the reform press has been lately urging the return of the Hon. Edward Blake to public life, as the only salvation for the coun- try as it were, but in reality as the Only hope for the party. This means an acceptance or. the part of a large section of the reform party of “the situ. ation," and the abandonment of the policy of unrestricted reciprocity; for the last public utterance of Mr. Blake was an unqualified condemnation of that policy, as dangerous to the com- mercial and national future of Canada. It is not to be presumed that there is any lingering hope in the breasts of those inviting the return of the old leader, that 13.728 latter can be prevailed upon to retract the \Vest Durham manifesto far enough to be able to “time in” with Sir Richard Cartwright and Mr: Laurier and their discredited policy. It will be remembered that at Nalvern, in 1887, Mr. Blake promised ‘ if returned to power not to disturb the National Policy so as to needlessly destroy vested interests for the sake of a trade theory. In his \Vest Durham manifesto he emphasized the position that in any trade treaty the political and commercial integrity of Canada must be maintained. Unquestionably Mr. Blake could consistently formulate, Wall New, Prices PORTER’S Bookstore. 62 KENT-STREET.

James" Hayes, :1. trimmer employed by one of the electric light companies of Boston was found dead Monday morning hanging to an electnc light pole on Dover street. He had received a shock. The Wabash river has overflowed, and many of the low lying sections of Indiana are flooded. Crops are ruined. Much damage has also been done by floods in the Sangamon valley Illinois. Tm; Ontario Legislature has made it optional with the Law Society to ,. permit women to practise as solicitors. This is rather a measly way of doing things. If the principle of admitting women to the practice of the law be right per 55, why leave individual rights to the tender mercies of the “profes- ision,” which is composed, of course, at present, entirely of horrid males. Such wishy-washy legislation looks very much as if in the case of the majority of our legislators, at least, the weaker vessel is the “other fellow.” Thty didn’t say ‘no,’ and they didn’t say cyes.’ Some were horrified at the thought of the possibility in the future of woman sitting upon the bench, while others dreaded most the unequal con- test before a jury between a pair of bcwitching fi‘malc black eyes and the less fascinating optics of the average male practitioner. It never occurred to our sage legislators that the public could stand it very well to have the ordinary m. p. confined by statute to the duties of ollice work, whilst the bewitching bltcl: eyes and the male portion of more than ordinary qualities and attractions could be left to light the rest of the business out in court. Tacked Onto the possible fun of the thing, is the question in which the public are deeply interested, as to whether cheaper law would not be fur- nished as a result of the fierce compe- tition which the change proposed would beyond doubt bring about. If smaller bills of costs would result as a. conseâ€" quence of letting the women of the country loose upon the lawyers. a. ple- bescite would soon settle the question. There is a considerable section also of the leg] fraternity for whom a. gocd “combing” would be a. positive public benefit, and we do not see any reason- able prospects of the work being pro- perly done without entrusting it to the gentler sex, By all means give the girls a; show. i “organized” as to have proved a power. ful factor in sustaining his government in power. But Mr. Mowat “begged the question” when he asserted that the people of Ontario are not in favor of prohibition, as he has taken good care not to test the sentiment of the pro- vince upon the questisn‘ by submitting it to the electors apart from party issues. The action of the Government, however, in attempting to amend the license law for the purpose of licensing the sale of liquor on railway trains, sets at rest any claims Mr. Mowat and his colleagues have hitherto put forward for the support of the temperance vote of the province. The attempt was nothing short of an outrage. Legaliz ing the sale of liquor on railway trains in the interests of the moral well-being, and the llVPS and limbs of the travell~ ing public, is a new phase of the tem- perance movement truly. And vet Mr. Mowat spoke in favor of it, and it required the united vote of the Opposi- tion and several reform members to force the Government to withdraw the amendment. These are “evidences” of the zeal of Mr. Mowat and his collea- ‘gues in the cause of temperance, which the public would do well to bEar in I mind. Editorial Notes. 0N July lst the provincial act goes into operation making it illegal to sell tobacco to youths under 18 years of age. It is not to be expected that the effect of the act will be to entirely pre- vent the use of the weed by minors, but one good effect will certainly be to discourage the habit to :1 considerable extent, a. habit which has betn found unfortunately to be growing amongst our young people. There 18 another law upon the statute book preventing the sale of liquor to minors, and for- bidding youths frequenting hotels or billiard rooms in connection therewith. Would it not be well for the author?- tics in this and other localities to look more closely afterthe enforcement. of this important provision? THE WATCHMAN.
