The sale of liquor to minors, to habitual drunlmrds, on Sundays, at late hours, etc. flourished to as great an ex- tent, in the town of Lindsay at least, under the much abused Scott Act. Under the former, our community had lisenced hotels the bars of which were seldom closed either night or day, and the sole aim of which was to supply I convenience for the low, whiskey soak- Much has been said by the opponents of the Scott Act of the failure of that measure and of the evils that have ex- isted under it. As to the perjury at Scott Act trinls. of which so much has been said, we believe it existed to ss great an extent under the Crooks Act: regime ; but at all events, it is one of the strongest arguments for the total suppression of a traffic which under- mines to so fearful an extent the moral sense of its victims.

It is the duty of the friends of Prohibition to impress upou the public with greater zeal than over their views upon a question which so deeply afi'ects the moral well-being of the people, firm in the conviction that the time will shortly come when the public mind will be so educated upon the liquor question in all its bearings, that a total prohibition measure will re- ceive the active moral support as well as the assent of the whole community. It is the duty of all good citizens, whether prohibitionists or anti-prohibi- tionists, to assist to the utmost in the endeavor to reduce the evils of the liquor tmflic under what- ever system the popular votc of the time may call into existence.

The public meeting of the ratepayers held last Friday evening to discuss the Question of a new waterworks system for the town, and the introduction of electric light was largely attended. The meeting was an important one. as it tested unmis- takeebly the feelings of the ratepayers ‘ upon the question of the town adding to ‘ its already heavy liabilities by undertsk- ing even so desirable and so promising a. speculation as the one referred to. There can be no doubt as to the wishes of the great majority of the taxpayers upon this 1‘ point. The practise of the most rigid economy in all departments and in all di- rections is imperatively necessary, until the town has been placed in a much bet- ter position financially than it is at the present. The meeting of last Friday gave no uncertain sound upon this matter ; and we believe at the elections in Januarthhe feelings of the ratepayers will be express- ed as they have not been for years back.

When the corpse of the eighth victim was discovered on the Thames Embankment, about five weeks ago, it was suggested that the mnrderer,tired of the monotonous success attending his blood hunt amongst the most forlorn and friendless and Fitiful of all human creatures, might, in search of change and recreation, try a higher range a! work and seek victims amongst women of a better condition of life than those amongst whom he had served his novitiate in murder. This prediction has in iart been verified.

He stands now before the bar of British public opinion to answer the charges of villainous conspirators with English secret service money at their backs. Will you desert him now? Will you by apathy and indifference aid the foul conspiracy that seeks to moral- ly assassinate the foremost man of the Irish people? Concentrated in him to-dey are the feelings and aspirations of the world- wide Irish race, and shell Charles Stewart Parnell become the victim of the forger and the perjurer because he has not the money that necessity will compel him to expend to defeat the achinations of his and Ireland’s enemies? o harbor such a thought would be an insult to every man of Irish blood. Cdme, then, to the rescue of the mm who stands as the ideal representative of our race to-dny. "The cadence the Irish leaders are pre- pared to offer will prove beyond ndoubt the infamy of the Government and its mask, The London Times, is attempting by means of forged letters to destroy not only the representative of the Irish people but the venerable statesman who, as leader of the British Liberals, has dared to inaugurate a. policy of justice and conciliation between the people of Great Britain and Ireland. Baffled at every point of its ignoble and malicious course the Salisbury Cabinet is now striving to keep back the damning evi- dence held by the Irish leaders by prolong- ing and extending the commission and constantly increasing the enormous costs in the hope of compelling Mr. Parnell to 513511" don the case for want of funds to meet the expenditure forced upon him and his friends. “ Even in this last infamous design this most despicable of all British Governments begins to fear the exposure of its unexam- pied turpitude. The Royal Commission created by the Tory Government and fram- ed with a view to necord Mr. Parnell and his friends only that modicum of justice ~which even corruption must pay .to public decency, has proved itself incapable of de- scending to the level of Tory baseness. The opening statement of the Attorney-General has failed in its evil intent and several of the witnesses have under cross examination made admissions damaging to the enemies of Mr. Parnell rather than to himself and his gollcngnes. _ _ _ - President Fitzgerald Issues a Manifesto In Which lle Begs for Funds for Puritan's Defence. . meoms', Nah, Nov. 18.â€"â€"The following circular hols been addressed by.President Fitzgerald to the various branches of the .

Salisbury and his Cabinet have stooped to employ braves, fm'gors, perjm‘ers and outcasts of society to foresweur the character of the Irish leaders and thus drive them from public life, hop- ing thereby to force the Irish people to adopt as their only alternative the policy of violence and despair, a policy which in Ireland’s poverty and helplessness could only_end in her destruction.
