Spernce, Secretary of the Dominion Alliance put considerable enthusiasm into the temperance workers by his able sermon in the Methodist churdh in the morning, and his ad- dresses in the town hall in the af- ternoon and evening. At 3.30,. a mass meeting was held in the hall. The attendance was not large. but a most forceful address was deliv- ered in favor of local option. which the speaker showed was working well in all parts of the province. judging by a large list of testi- monials he read from Mayors and Reeves in different municipalities where the act is in force. In near- ly every ease, the towns were re- ported. as prospering. hotel ae- ‘commodation- good. and local option had not injured business. In Lfact, «of the 45 or 50 telegrams. only three places said that busi- ness was injured. 'Collinugwood said __the (hotel business was injur- the name of the paper just as the Globe or any other neWSDaPel‘ would do. He told Mr. Black he , would take his answer from the , platform. but Mr. Black did not i feel disposed to give it in that , way, and from the feeling of the meeting Mr. Black Was largely in 1 the minority, and he felt, as any of us should have felt under simi- ' lar circumstances, that it isn’t - prudent to fight a man at his ,. own game.

Mr. Spence spoke with no uncertain sound. as to the pos- sibility of enforcing the act; it had been enforced elsewhere. and it could be enforced in Durham. A member of the [audience asked for the report «sent in by the Mayor of Durham, to Which he replied that he hadm’s even received the courtesy of an answer. This touched iMay-or Black. .Who took the platform at the close Of the meeting and gave as his reason that the telegram was not signed.
