Men {who went drink muv send for it and may drink it to their own undoing. lThe question is for the man on the street rather than for the minister, lfor the citizen as such rather than for, fthe church. It is the question Whetbo l i er the drinking dens with all their de-l igrsding accompaniments are to be I iontimfid, or shut up as public nul-l I sauces. l Those who beheve in prohibition I will be blind if they do not give their lfnll support to a measure which gees [as far in that direction as the provin- ‘cisl powers will allow. Citizens who l are not Pr?,hibition'ytts but who mourn the vile intlaenee of the open drink. ing dens with their stalls and cuhby holes should unite their forces to make their inf1ttemse felt.

The Globe editorially declares; t "We can think of noother business " that, With notable exceptions here and " there, hasso deliberately. systemati- It cally and dMantly repudiated the e obligations of the agreement under which it is conducted or that has so - openly floated public opinion." Our , battle' is not with the men but with l the system under which they live.[ E Nor is the issue as to whether we are in favor of the total prohib- 1 won ofthe manufacture and sale of I intoxicating liquors " beverages. 2 Many supporters of the localoption ' by-law are out and out prohibitionists ' bat prohibition is not a Question in .
