The Privy Council has decided that the Manitoba Prohibition Act is valid. This gives provincial legislatures the )ower to pass measures prohibiting the sale for drinking purposes within the limitso' their own jurisdiction. 'l‘he decision is hailed wish 'lelight hy temperance advocates through the Dominion. and as far as Ontario is conserned there is no duuht that the local legislature will be deluged with petitions during the coming session. The strong and growing temper- ance sentim. nt in this province will be brought to bear upon Premier Ross and it is highly probable he will be iorced to express himself in un- qualified terms regarding his position on the prohibition question. Dept”- ations waited on him last session. but owing to the unsettled state of the Manitoba question. then lefore the Privy Council he was unable to give a definite answer further than his willingness to give the province all the prohibition the law would al- low as soon as the judgment of the Privy Council was made public. The decision has now been given and as another session of the legislature is announced before dissolution, the government in pow er will be called upon to assert their position. Prem- ier Ross himself, has alwavs been an advocate of temperance, and having gone so far as to promise what he did it is only reasonable to expect he will make a bold show at carrying out his promises and pro-election pledges at least may be looked for. The Montreal Witness, which dis. cusses the question at considerable length, concludes with the following ing sentence:-" We await particu- larly with the greatest interest as the Premier of Ontario, himself a prohibitionist. has declared that if the act is maintained a bill as effec- tive will be passed in Ontario. If he stands boldly and nnequirocally by his promise the province will stand by him.” If a woman is hawisome aml inde~ pendently rich she’ll have no trouble to get a man of some kind. Beauty and riches, however. are not the only essentials to human happiness. and these qualifications without “ good nose” and “ honesty” are hardly a square deal to giVe in exchange for a .33 possessing the latter virtues. I fleet of the masculine human bipeds who are hunting for such game (and we believe the woods is full of them) are nothing more than human para. sites who least and fatten on the in- Instr, 0! others, and win for them- selves a name that no sensible person will envy.

After saying Mr. Davis is well and enjoys the CHRON- tcee's weekly visits we reproduce the heading of the Dawson hotel stationa ery used by him in his letter. It sounds like a pretty ruin afiair. and reminds one of the " Joe Beef Cau- teen ” well known a few years ago in Montreal. and visited by thousands out of were curiosity to see " Joe,” and the curiosities he always had around him.
