Local Option has had its fairest trial
in Owen Sound. If it has failed there,
it can succeed nowhere. Read what
the Mayor of Owen Sound says of
Ohl, cal' Option's effect on a t'l wn
• w
To All Whoin It Concerns
Owen Sound, Nov. 27, 1907
"Local Option differs in operation very little from
the Dunkin Act, which was tried in Owen Sound some
years ago.
"In Owen Sound there is a good, capable License
Inspector, who does what he can to enforce the law,
but public sentiment is against doing so, notwithstand-
ing the large majority by which it was carried, and
liquor is sold in large quantities yet. There has not
been a single instance of anyone having beetle 'tent to
gaol, although several convicticins have bee secured
against nine hotels here. Lately some sew: teen in -
.formations were laid by the License Inspec .r, every
one of which was dismissed with costs, althou,li he had
two detectives who swore that they had got lig or.
"The writer knows places where liquor c. be pur-
chased, in which it was never seen before L. cal Option
came in force, and he is informed that then: are sixty-
one of such places in the town.
"The town has four policemen, and t c statutes,
the by-law appointing them, a special b law and a
special resolution of the Council lately p ssed, make
men toenforceLocal O o
n et the
uof these ,
it the duty f s
. P y
y
sale goes on and no convictions are made. Fr
"Public sentiment is against its enforcement.
"Local trade has been injured by Local Option, and
scores of people in the surrounding country who used
to trade in Owen Sound when License was in force, now
go to Wiarton, Chesley, Port Elgin, Chatevorth, Mark -
dale, Meaford, etc. Local Option has di ded our citi-
zens into two hostile sections,—Local 1ptionists and
Antis, who are jealous and distrustful of each other.
What one proposes the other opposes.
"Owen Sound is a 'House divided a ainst itself' in
this respect.
"The evils arising from drinking haw root been lessen-
ed but rather increased. Under Licexse Law, liquors
were sold in eleven hotels, and 'no ligt}r could be pur-
chased by the glass outside of these hglels. Now it is
sold in many places, and drunkenness ris as prevalent as
ever, if not more so. There may be its open drinking
at bars, but drinking from bottles has largely increased,
especially among youths and youn men. Drinking
takes place in private rooms, in o es,in closets, in
cellars, outbuildings, etc.
"It may lie asked, 'Where do theyjet it?'
"It comes in on the railways, in t `inks, in suit cases,
in valises, in satchels, in boxes, ba s, etc. It cotnes
in on boats, 0n wagons, in carriag etc., etc. Friends
bring it to friends, and there are .t ise who bring it in
to make money.
"It is impassible to keep liqu. out. Evidence of
this can be seen its the shape of em .�° bottles and broken
bottles on the streets, in lanes andout-of-the-way places,
in the police courts, at the doeke, Si,
"The effect on the financial aff irs in Owen Sound is
this:
"At the Court of Revision held by the Judge to hear
cases of appeal, nine appeals were heard, the appellants
claiming that their properties had been lessened in value
because of Local Option. After hearing the evidence
the Judge ordered that their assessments be reduced
$57,750.00, and the Corporation lost, because of this,
$1 ,357.1 2 in taxes. The owner of one hotel (The Coul-
son House) neglected to enter an appeal, or in all prob-
ability another $5,000.00 or 50,000.00 would have been
struck off. The reyenue derived from hotel and shop
licenses, amounting to $1,394.00, has been entirely cut
off, making a direct annual Toss from these sources of
$3,051.12. Beside the Corporation has had to pay for
legal advice and counsel fees, etc., fully $500.00 more,
in defending the by-law, and our citizens who tried to
squash it lost perhaps another $4,000.00 or $5,000.00, and
their relations as citizens have been embittered.
"It was said that under Local Option the town would
require fewer policemen, and a saving could be made in
that way, which would almost, if not altogether, offset
the loss of revenue. It has been found that this cannot
be done, in fact the salaries of some of the policemen
had to be raised very materially, and the police force
should be increased. Some active Local Optionists went
so far as to asic that six additional men should be put on;
there are four now. No reduction in the municipal ex-
penditure of Owen Sound can be made because of Local
Option.
"The writer was brought up in a family -of eight boys
and has three of his own.
"He has been in active business in Owen Sound for
over forty years and is in business here yet.
"He has had to do with employing men during all
that time and has many men under his control now.
"He has large pecuniary interests in several large
manufacturing establishments Here, and has occupied
the positions of School Trustee, Councillor, Reeve, Mayor,
and License Commissioner.
"He has served as a member of the Board of Trade,
as one of its Council and as President, and knows Owen
Sound thoroughly.
"The writer has seen Owen Sound under indiscriminate
under restricted license under the Dunkin Act,
es
then under the present License Act, and under Local
Option, and has no hesitation in saying that Local Option
has not lessened drinking, has not improved business or
the financial position of the people generally, neither has,
it improved the moral tone of the citizens as a whole,
but on the contrary, Local Option has injured local trade
and lowered the moral- well-being of very Many.
"The writer deeply regrets having to say these things,
but believes that it is his duty to do so, if thereby he
may help to prevent others repeating the mistake made
in Owen Sound."'
(signed) M. KENNEDY,
Mayor of Owen Sound.
Believers in Lo al Option have been willing to rest .their
case ' on Owen ound. Pet here is it proved that Owen
Sound has suf red grievously from Local Option. Have
you any r anon . to think YOUR town would not repeat O_
wen
Sound's e�peripce? Would that be good for your town?
