The parade of the Royal Templar of
Temperance, from the temperanoe hall to
Knox church, was one of the finest ever
held by any society to Goderich. The
attendance was large, awl •ltbourh no gar-
ish display was attempted or no gaudy
uniform worn, the eminently respectable
appointee. of those whn Wok part eon-
tribut.d much to the parade.
The march was viewed by • large number
of our townspeople, aad the universal
opinion was that the "wets' of the town
could not get together as repnw•t•tive and
respectable a gathering, and pet them on
the line of m•reh. W. C. Goode acted an
marshal during the parade and did his work
efficiently.
At Knox church a section of the seating
w allotted for the special use of the K. T.
of T., and when seated, each member with
• natty badge on breast, the society pre -
'tented • very pleasing spectacle. The
chapter read, although not specially select-
ed, was peoali•rly adapted to the occasion,
aad the sermon by Rev. J. A. .lnderson,
was one of the best representations of the
present condition of the temperance gees -
tion which has yet been given. The
preacher spoke in part as follows
Doul. 3t- 7 : " He strong and of • good courage.'
"It gives me plea/sure to welcome to our
midst and address this morning an uryaniza•
tion which u engaged in the great and good
work of stemming the tide of intemperance
in our land. Having sponged the cause of
suffering humanity, and of (god, their work
is a praiseworthy ate. One of the great
questions that is agitating cur oouotry at
the present day is " Wbat is to be dorm
with the liquor traffic!" It is an evil that
is deep rented in the land. its pernicious
.Bette are m.nifeat on every side, both
among the higher and lower classes of •Doi•
r;y. Melly voices are lifted up avatst it.
M:airters and doctors, lawyers and teach-
ers, scientific and literary men, editors,
judges and jaris, synods, conferences and
general assemblies on every side are lifting
up their voice* in warning, and the great
question with them all is, " Whet is to be
date with it In thio monster evil, that
is slat., hostile tc iadivi Dual and nauoual
wellbeing ; which is sapping the life -blood
of our youth and bunleninr old age ; which
is draining oar country of mtllions of dol-

which is to come. 1s the evil to be n•

anor work, is the hstory of God's dealings
with his ancient people. He showed that
temperance sentiment is far in advance a
what it epee was. Egypt hs been left be-
hind, and we are marching on to the I.ted
of which the Lord our trod has said " I will
give it pato you." But the way is often
rough, and the m•roh sometimes heavy,
difficulties many and great beset the oours",
and in eooequenno. WHIM, like Meisel of old,
are faint-hearted and weak, others are
faultfinding and murmuring, almost ready
to go hack again to Egypt, ; but " Oeward"
is our watchword, our duty is plate, oar
course is before us, and above the tumult
and dip of the opposing foram we may hear
the words of our leader, " Be tenons .ted et

A oonecloae.eas of wrong doing begets
cowardice and fear, and will make mtu fete
frotu men shadows ; but • ouuoa:touseesa of
riebt doing will stimulate to womaniser
in that work. Hero the speaker breaded
the INeuor traffic as a mighty evil, and par
h,utenxed in a number ot teltng instances,
showing its evil tan•lencles. As to it being
an e:pawve evil, he pointed out that 10 our
own Dominion, for every dollar spent In
educating the youth of the lend 415.00 are
spent iu blunting their seuslbthttes. For
every dollar spent in diremtnauug the
knowledge of the true tied and the gospel
of Jesus G'kwt, Bd0.00 are given to the devil
to overthrow the goo.! work. As a des-
uuctive evil, its injurious effects were
pointed out upon health .ed life, and show-
ing the greater proportion of deaths •tnoog
intemperate than temperate men between
certain ages. As • destroyer of what labor
produos-tbat capital that might be used
to blas 'mankind and bring in times of pros-

bus. --(10 my return to Tomato 1 thought
it expedient to take legal advice with regard
to my position as • life member of St.
Georges society, which was attacked 10 my
absence Lad ou which, according to reports
which reached use, • further attack ws
meditated. The question is one which ooa-
cern. not me or tee members of the 5t.
(;eorgi • society alone, but the members of
an*twisty of which at some moment when
political feeling run* high a political party
may be tempted to make use as au omen* of
oboe. 1 am advised that if 1 wets
ed of my membership for my political
nppt1atoo., when I had not ntravened the
ohsrter •oor broken any rule of the society,
the exputaon would be Illegal and I should
be retoatated by • court of haw. It would
be • desertion of public right and of the
Interesta of charity on my part to allow
that which cannot be lawfully done i. •
direct way to be indirectly oumpes ed by
cabal and insult.
The act of incorporation defines the ob-
ject of the society as "the relief of each
Datives ot !England and Wale* sod their
descendants as may from sickness or other
o•usee have (ellen into distress." On the
face of its report the society ie stated to be
•' instituted for the relief of destitute F..og-
llshsn.n and their desce.da•ts," no other
purpue being waeneooai. The twenty-
third by-law declare. atm " the introduc-
tion of political or religions subjects or
their discussion shell not be allowed in the
society." This is a distinct pledge of
pelitic•I neutrality on the put of the so-
ciety to all who become its members and
contribute to its fund, and, like every other
comment, it ought t., be oosuttructed in its
plain and natural sense. To enable my
political opponents to inflict on me a public'
insult, it eras ruled that the term "political"
was to be confined to orthodox politics,
that is, such politics as the majority choose
to deem orthodox, and that it was lawful,
,otwtihst•nding the by-law, to intrduoe
at • meeting the burning political question
of the day, and the one which, s it aroused
the most angry feeling's, the framers of the
by-law would probably have been most
daemon' to exclude. By the sante role "re
ligious" might be taken to protect only
orthodox religions, and the St. Georges
society might same day be arraigning mi. of
iia members for heresy.
it rives me, s it would give any right
minded man, pain to know that on a great
question, and one on which strong feelings
aro naturally aroused, 1 ani at variance
with many of my fellow -citizen., and es-
pecially with those of my own 'octal circle.
But, whatever may he the rule of statecraft,
• public writer can be of no use
unless he freely tells what he believes to be
the truth. Nobody oaa have Zeus personal
interest in any pslitieal change then I have.
I had in fact closed my study door on all
these controversies, and when I accepted
the honorary presidency at the Continental
Union association. it was by way of protest
in favor of freedom of discussion with which
then was a disposition to interfere. In the
old world, institutions may stilt rest on
blind allegiance ; hero they cap rest only on
public conviction, of which free discussion
IS the guarantee. Wheu from a fair
country, with undeveloped resources and
sepses .1411 uapeoplsd, its children are de-
puting by thousands, it is surely time for
open onuncila and for the exercise of fore-
sight m to our future. in all the years 1
have lived hen 1 have met few who did not
u private avow or betray their conviction
that change must come. Why then put off
the deliberation, waiting perhaps till the
country is run down ! Let the people after
fair debate, vote freely and we shall alt ac-
quiesce in the decision.
