A. uAchY, B. A. D. D. Let. it not. he said that in British Dominions e heneficent law. declared good by the highest court in the realm, and adopted by a large major- “'-.â€", wâ€"w “â€"â€"'-_.- ity of the people, cannor. be enforced. ‘ It is unfair to compare the Liquor Act now before us with the Dunkin Act or Scott Act, limited in extent, imperfect in restriction, and without any Government behind it acknow- ledging responsibility for its enforce- ment. The law we are now seeking was drafted by men who were not only lawyers of the first rank, but also earnest prohibitionists; it has stood the test of the Privy Council of Great Britain, and our Provincial Government is pledged to enforce it, if it is passed by the people. These things cannnot be said of any pre- ‘ceding law. Is the present license law enforced ? Is there one. of its irestrictions that is not almost con- stantly ignored? Does license regu- late? Look at it in our own Pro- vince : Drinking, the official records tell us, has increased 30 per cent. in three years; $560,000 more were spent last year on strong drink than in any former year; the bar-rooms are more and more coming into the posession of a few brewers and dis- tillers who constitute a most danger- ous political combine. President, Wilson of the Licensed Victuallers’ Association, of Quebec, speaking a few days ago on the object of that Association, said, “ With the federa- tion of the whole trade of the Pro- vince. we can reckon with every man of the seventy-three members of the Legislature.” Whither are we drift- , ing? On Dec. 4th we have to choose ‘ between a license law that has every where proved itself an awful failure, and a thorough-going well-devised prohibitory law, with the Govern- ment pledge to its enforcement. J l To-day 30,000.000 people are living in the United States, or more than one-third of the entire population. under prohibition. For proof of this see page 416 of “TI e Presbsterian Record ” for September. 1902, where the names of the prohibition states,‘ districts, cities, etc.. are given. Maine. New Hamshire. Vermont, have had prohibition for 50 tears. Last week Vermont sustained it, and the last vote taken upon it in Maine was in 18.84. and the law was sustain- ed by a majority of about 2} to 1. The vote stood as foliows :â€" For Prohibition. ....70 783. Against Prohibition..‘23 811. It is absurd to suppose that the voters in so many districts. would have for so long a time sustained the law unless they believed that it was benelitting the community. Maine has the smallest percentage of criminals of any State, and the lowest rate of taxation ;. yet they tell us prohibition would make us ibankrupt. I quote from the Minority Report of the Royal Commission : " Prohib- ition has greatly reduced the con- sumption of liquors in the State of Maine; it has created a strong public sentiment against hovh drinking and selling liquors; it has banished drink shops from fully threeJourths of the State; it has degraded the liquor traffic. so that no person with any, pretentions to respectibility thinks of entering into it; it has restricted illicit liquor selling more efiectuully than any other system has done.” Kansas is under prohibition, and lhere is the testimony ofa Kansas paper; “ There are forty-five coun- ties in Kansas where there is not a single pauper in the poor-house, and AL ___- .. “A, QI‘UDOV râ€"v-r in forty-seven counties there is not. a criminal for trial.” 0’08 0;) those £27891: ‘ldligl: :Zde‘g; a‘loCommissioner, Ottawa; Dr. B.
