I, Tarte. For some years he has been out of the public view, owing chiefly to poor health. His was a stormy career; he tilted with the Liberals, and discovering a lack of reetitude in some members of his own party, turned against them and, from the Liberal stronghold pour- ed hot shot into the Conservative camp. He latterly tried a tilt with Laurier, but came to grief politically, and retired then to conduct his widely known paper, La Patric. Letter from T. C.James, Charlotte- town, P. E. I. Last week Mr. Farqaharson sent to Mr. T. C. James, an old and inflaen- tial resident of 2harlovtetown a copy ot the advertisement published in the Chronicle on Dee, 19th under the heading "Where local option is Tyr- anny " and has received from him the following reply; ' Let me say at the outset that in Charlottetown lam not looked upon use Temperance fanatic. Someof my brethren think we laitewarm, bntI refuse to take extreme views even in the Temperance question. " Omit/ed [an] W't'rk.

A defendant in a liquor case is not compelled to become a witness against himself. A man arrested ior drank. eneas can be compelled toatate where he procured' liquor or be committed tor contempt of court. I am not aware that any one has refused to antorer--ortiethe,r they have told the truth or not is another Question. The charge that in Charlottetown the magistrate who tries a liquor case is required, by the law to act as proa- ecutor is absolutely talse. There is a public prosecutor who lays the infor- mation and retains a lawyer to roe- cute if he sees fit. The 's1C,"df'2t site as judge and no one, not even the liquor sellers doubts hls ability and integrity. --Remember to write it 1-908. -Manitoba Provincial gnvernmen! has hnught out the Bell Telephone Co. fur M'rr $311011”.

With the advent of the New Year, I wish to make the announcement to REVIEW readers and patrons gener~ ally that I have taken my son into partnership and that in future the firm name will be " C. Ramage & Son." This change will involve no departure from the principles and practice that has brought the REVIEW to be one of the leading exponents of public opinion in South Grey, but rather tend to progress in ability to serve well the community. Thanking all for the kindness and liberal support extended to me during the past 13 years, I sub- scribe myself, Yours very truly, C. Rumors. In reference to the above. the new firm very cordially extends to all pat- rons their sincere wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year. THURSDAY, JANUARY 2, 1903.

RAMAGE A partner in a leading dry goods (inn says eolleetions are better than m pest years partly due to less waste " mmey for liquor. When legisla- ion was firtst inmoduced in Charlotte- own businuss fell " because liquor was to be had in other towns bat since the Whole: island is under the same law trade has come back and is now better than ever. The city assessor who has been many years in the off'tee says that when he began his work there wns much poverty, houses badly furnish- "d, children badly clothed and ill fed Since the introductiunuf pruhibitory legislation there has beenasteady improvement which was more mark- ed during the last Nev. Thishe largely attributes to the lessened liquor cousum ption. A customs oftreial says "untone much of the liqunr passes through our hands now. It is alleged that the greater pa"t nl it comes trom St. John and Halifax duty paid, bntI am continually around the wharves and Ido not see any ofit." Steumer agents say far less is imported over their lines. The Stipendizuy Magistrate says there is a marked change for the better. The law removes temptation from our young men. The open sa- loon with its atuacuors and eomtor. table back room was a standing ailuremen' to young men, especially to those coming in from the country. Now the traffie is driven into disrep- tttable channels and no man unless he already has the thirst or unless his tastes and habits are degraded will go into these places to hunt for liquor," My own experience extending now over 30 years in Charlottetown is this; In the days of license, on Mar ket days it was an evervd.y sight to see long strings of teams standing in front ot saloons. the women in the vehicles. the men inside drinking. When thev came out almost every man carried a jar to last him till next market day. The roads leading out of town were dangerous, almost im, possible to ordinary travellers be. cause so many drunken drivers were going out Now this is entirely changed, Roads on Market day are as sate as on any other day. Though there are still drunken men they are really few and the arrests are usually about the some old crowd ot dead bests that know the hunts and will have the liquor it it is to be got. The condition at our city is unmeasursbh better and I am satisfied the law could not be repealed to-day in any (A) 275 256 275 207 I95 (B) 152 102 103 63 82 >1902 1903 1901 1905 1906 I907 169 231 168 94 93 82 114 112 122 104 86 The tigarets for 1907are toOet 31.

The submarine work was done by tornprvssed air workers, 'Sand Hogs.’ a notoriously hard set. During that line We, had to put on extra police 'rce and that accounts for the in. t-n-ase in urn-5:9 during that gear.

Igive the sum 4 the information I retwtred. With regard to the assertion that there are more arrests for drunkeness and that the trade in ardent spirit: has increased I call your attention to the number of arrests for drunkeness for the last ten years; In the following table (A) shows the arrests tor drunkeness and (B) for all other arrests. Years 1897 1898 1899 1000 1901 Whether wives were ever paid to give evidence against their husbands or not their is no evidence to show. I do not however believe that there in n single instance on record where . wife gaye testimony: against her hul- band in n liquor selling cue. That there bu been peljnry in liquor cases I think is undeniable though, alas, that offence is not can tinedtolitytor cane Did thelew make the perjury or did it merely call on: the tulsenese? The stetement that "the citizens ot Charlottetown hue long since re- insed to appear as prooecutere in li. quor cases” is incorrect since they never did appear " prosecutors.
