MR. ROWELL MOVES TO ABOLISH
THE BAR.
The campaign against the bar iu the
Province of Ontario was commenced
in the Legislature last week, when Mr.
Rowell. leader of the Opposition, in-
troduced • motion setting forth the
policy adopted by the Liberal mem-
bers.
Mr, Howell's resolution, which was
eecmnded by Mr. Proudfoot, member
for Centre Huron, calk d for : (I) The
immediate abolition of the bar; (2)
such "cher restrictiune upon the resi-
due of the liquor traffic as experience
1)y show to be neoe.sary to limit its
mastic.s and stllestitra to remedy its
evils: (s) the 'etrtot enforcement of
tbe law by official,' in sympathy with
law enforcement, and the elimination
of political influence from the admits.
ist.retion of the law ; (4) regulation
and inspection of all houses of public
entertainment eel at to insure remote
able accommodation for the travelling
fin hl ic.
Mr Rowell spoke of the evils wbicb
admittedly flow from the liquor traf
ilc, fwd stated that one thing that bad
contributed to the sentiment against
the traffic wan the necessity for indus-
trial efficiency. Men wbu were ad-
dicted to strong dri were not
wanted as emplo on
railways, or in business houses. The
public barroom was tbe great centre
of the liquor trade. and public senti-
ment throughout tbe Province *bowed
that the Ume bad arrived when the
bar should be abolished. Mr. Rowell
made it clear that what be meant. by
abolition of the bar was the cutting
ori of all hotel licensee. The local op-
tion law would stilt remelts in force to
En away the residue ot the traffic,
ench as the shop ;and club licenses. In
comparison with 1,330 tear licenses,
there were 2l`t shop licenses and only
53 club lioenses in the Province, and
Mr. Rowell thought the clubs should
go along with the barrooms. Some
clubs were merely drinking resorts,
and no attempt should be made to
justify their existence.
"Once the bar k abolished in this
Province," Mr. Rowell declared, "no
political party will ever attempt its re-
establishment. Once gone it is gone
forever." And wileo"hotefkeepere re-
alized that the liquor traffic was for-
ever divorced from the business of
hoteikeeping, Lbey would devote
themselves to giving the beet accom-
modation tbey could for the travel-
ling public, and the hotelkeepiog busi-
ness would he raised to • higher level.
Premier Whitney met 31r. Rowell's
motion with a resolution In favor of
the enactment of legislation to stop
the treating system. The abolitloo of
barroom drinking would, be believed,
be followed by wor .e evils, and in sup-
port of tbis view he spoke of experi-
ences under (he aicott Act. A law
against treating, he Admitted, won)d
be * difficult one to enforce, but he
thought it might be falrlywell enforced.
1f the treating babit were stopped. in
Ave years; from now young nen and
boys would never get into tbe habit
because they would not see other
people teeming. Sir James declared
that it bad been represented to him by
people engaged in the liquor traffic
that they would like to see Iegulatioe
along thin line.

Hon. A. O. Monne has resigned his
position on the civil service commiP-
siuo. It was not fitting tbat a man
who himself was under a cloed should
sit in judgment upon the members
of the civil service.
CooservaUve temperance tnen seem
to fear (hat the movement to abolish
the bar may have the result of *hoe
isbing theWbitney Government. Why
didn't they persuade Sir James to
take hold of the idea first, betore Mr.
Rowell had a chance at it ?
Compared with other rivers in
Western Ontario, the Maitland ap-
peals to have believed fairly well
this- spring. Parttime it was trying
to show bow ready it is to be
"harnessed" by the power people.
Sir Jatces Wbitney proposes to
abolish treating, and has three years
before the next election to demon.' rate
bow he is going to do it. Conserva-
tire temperance men ere waiting in
fear and trembling for the result,
lest they should hive to vote for
Rowell and his "banish the bar" plat-
form.
Some idea of the immensity of
Northern Ontario–(begging The Tor-
onto Star's pardon)–Upper Ontario --
may be gained from the tact that the
new judicial district of Temiskaming
will have an area of about 20,000
square miles. And if you wiped tbe
whole dirge ict off the map of Ontario
nobody would miss it.

WHAT DRAINAGE IS WORTH.
Results of Ezperitseo1 –Free Assistance
is Drainage Offered by the O. A. C.
Duriog the exceptionally dry season
of 1911 land that was underdrained
produced on the average about $16.11
more per acre than land that was not
dtaioe& according to data collected
by the Department of Phynce at tate
Ontario Agricultural College.
Reports were received from a large
number of farmers, of whom twenty-
five were able to give definite figures
un yields on drained and undrained
lend. Three of the number said they
saw no difference, but all tbe others
reported increases. Eleven counties
*ere represented in the reports,
from Durham in tbe east to
Emsz in the west. The value of in-
creases. including straw, was figured
at October 1911 and March 1912 price,.
The furmer showed an average o1 815.-
97 Lir acre sod the latter $17.04, and
bo together an average of $16.50.
ported no increase
were counted in obtaining the aver
1n wet seasons the results are even
more marked, but even at $16.50 per
acre drains more than pay for them-
selves in two years.
The O. A. C. is again renewing its
offer of assistance W farmers in Laying
out tbeir drainage systems. The
Department of Physics has a special
staff of drainage advisers for this work.
There is no charge for the services of
these men, the only outlay to the
farmer being the travelling expenses,
wbich are low. As the railway fare
is :tnly one osnt a nine for this work
and ea several, surveys are slimy*
made on one trip, the expenses are
divided among the several parties bon-
cer'ned. Anyone wishing to have a
drainage survey made should drop a
card to the Department of Physics,
O. A. C.. Guelph, whereupon regular
application form will be snot, and
later on acme of the Dspartesent's
drainage advisers will make lbs sur-
vey.
