THINKS OF THE LICENSED BAR. Winnipeg. Dec. 16â€"A conference between the Board of Control repre- sentatives of the railways was held this morning to discuss the problem of the unemployed. The giving of “knockout” drinks to men coming in at hotels in the vi- cinity of the C. P. R. depot received much attention from the meeting. muuu vvvvvvvvv __-__* Vice-President Whyte of the C. P.

(The Presbyterian.) We are not personally acquainted with Mayor Kennedy of Owen Sound. but according to his own statement published in an “open let- ter” in opposition to local option in his town. he stands before the coun- “la 'o'UVVI-I‘ uv uvâ€"â€"â€"_ try as an utterly discredited and ‘ self-dishonored man. Speaking of the non enforcement of the law he says: “The writer knows places where liquor can be purchased in which it was never seen before local option came into force, and is cred- bly informed that there are sixty-one of such places in town.” That is to duty it is to enforce the law, knows personally and by credible report of tits flagrant violation and yet does 1 not Stll‘ a finger toward its enforce- ment. The man should be impeached for his confessed neglect of plain ‘ duty. It is well known that his per- ‘ sonal sympathies are all on the side of the liquor interest but he was elected. not to carry out his own predilec- tions, but to enforce the law as it stands on the statute book. Mayor Kennedy should be ashamed to make such an exhibition of himself before the country, and sensible men will not be greatly influenced by his two column effusion. The results of the Local Option 1: campaign last year was such as 8 Would hearten thuse who are fighting I t for the abolition of the bar and the r by-law will be submitted in 100 mun- 1 icipalities on January 6, 1908. The c campaign is carried on with vigorlc and along progressive lines. The ap- I peal is being less and less to senti- < ment and there is a solid lining up of i ' l The wage earner is learning the folly ‘ of turning the results of his toil into harmful and wasteful channels. Ev- ery sensible man knows that the bar is the breeding and culture gr ound of the influences that are most bane- ful and demoralizing to a commun- ity. The issue that faces the elec tors where the question of the bar is submitted is a vital one and must be squarely and honestly met.‘ Are the physical, economic and moral ‘\ results of this institution such as to - entitle it to be perpetuated by the votes of decent men in a decent com munity ? It is certain that next year a great many communities will .1 be added to the honor roll. Let the Deposits of$I and upwards are received. :urrmt rate of interest is allowed. good work pros per. T0 OUTLAW THE BAR. (The Presbyterian.) ernment to removegtnem anu gun: the town something better. The Mayor calls the attention to Crossley and Hunter and Oliver and the resi- dent ministers that took such an ac- tive part against the liquor interest. but the Mayor has oomfort in the fact that most of the then resident ;ministers are gone, and they have -3L1- w‘ULUUVQU why a..-. got a new class. It is quite possible that the Mayor may find those ne.w men just as true to the interests. of humanity as the former were. Now . taking the letter as a whole, one would think that it was written in the interests of the liquor men, and anything to do them good servxce. We simply say it looks like it. Let us put the Mayor beside a man and see how he looks. When the liquor rfien of New York snapped their fin- gers in the face of authority (as Owen Sound now does), Roosevelt was put in charge. He said it is not the question as to my approving of the law or disapproving it ; it is simply the law, and I intend to enforce it, ! and he did with grand success. Now suppose the Mayor had said as long as local Option is the law I will see that it is enforced. would the present condition of things ever have exist. ' ed? No, never. Now, we do not 3 owish to say hard things, but this ‘ much must be said. he did not play 3 i terests of his town. The guilt of the ' present condition of Owen Sound lies ’l with the Mayor himself. ECONOMICS AND THE BAR-ROOM (The Globe.) A question of fundamental impor- tance is raised in the argument of the liquor interests presented in their campaign against local option in the advertising columns ofThe Globe and Other newspapers. The argument is old, but the economic question which it takes for g.-anted cuts far deeper than the advocates of the liquor traffic seem to recognize. The ques- â€"VA_..A an n“ tion is this: Is the bar room as an g or a burden to the community that sustains it ? That is a question of political econoâ€" my. It must be answered in accord- ance with sound economic principles are worked out in any representative Canadian community Leave to one side for the moment all considerations of a personal or social L“ ‘kalub And it is not in pl‘lDClple alone” but in practice as well, that the bar- \ room is an institution comes under economic condemnation. The busi~ ness managers of great industrial corporations in Toronto. in Ottawa, in London, in Hamilton, in St. Thomas, and in other centres o'. rooms in the vicinity of their works. 30 strong is the business judgment against the use of intoxicrnts that all railway employees arb warned against even entering bar-r oms, and cial, that every year snfi r financial loss greater than the on 're annual revenue from the city ' licenses. directly or indirectly through the incapacity or elin uency of their management 0 empbyees caused by the habitual e of strong drink. In economic theory a in every- day practice. therefore. he bar-room as an institution neit r produces anything valuable nor 8 mulates the production of anything aluable. and for this reason it is an onomic bur- den. a parasite npon th community ; in which it operates.
