Nothing Is known as to how the
fire originated. It was first -observed
from the deck of the new battleship
cruiser Queen Mary, which was hastily
towed out of the danger none. Al!
the Ire -fighting apparatus l■ the dock

and the efforts of the men were de-

ARTICLES ON NPROIIIBITION
The MAiN DIFFICULTY that advocates
of License Law have to contend with is the IG-
NORANCE generally prevailing on the question.
In spite of the most impressive lesions to the con-
trary, Prohibitionists are DOING THEIR
BEST �to INCREASE the USE of iNTOXI-
CANTS.
• The explanation of this paradox is easily ob-
tained. The majority do not read or study out
the question for themselves. They listen chiefly
to advice given in sermons -and the preachers of
these sermons generally assume that legislation
can change customs, control appetites, and banish
front our midst what is legally made, gold and im-
ported.
LEGISLATION NEVER HAS AND
NEVER WiLL DO THIS. In the notorious
State of Maine, General Neal now. the father of
Prohibition there, testified that he could show
veru fine residences owned by men who had amas-
sed a FORTUNE SELLING RUM SiNCE
PROHIBITION CAME INTO FORCE.
-.prnished `hy the �etu, i,tborit'iea-
an given,. almost ad lnf+intum, show.ng that in
Maine Prohibition has signally failed to bring
about the results desired by its advocates.
Nothing short of "Rotten" describes the con -
tons there. ONE EXAMPLE -in PORT-
LAND, Maine, under PROHIBITION the AR-
RESTS for DRUNKENNESS in 188o were
43.44 per thousand. in 1893-39.14g- per thous-
and. in Montreal, tinder LICENSE LAW, 19,
24 in 188o, and in 893, 10.38. Will Prohibition •
fists -will those who think .3f voting for the Scott
Act SIMPLY PONDER OVER THESE
FIGURES, and read, mark, learn and inwardly
digest their import.
A SEAPORT CITY under PROHIBi..
TiON in 13 YEARS varies ONLY from 43.44 to
39.44 in arrests for drunkenness, and mind you, we
are told "Prohibition prohibits" ; and another
SEAPORT CITY under LiCENSE, DOWN
identically the same riod. GOES N
from 19.24 to lo. 8.Quebec during the same
period, under LICENSEthe figures are 33.13 in
188o, down to 6.75 in 1$93.
Surely there is no ignorance so dense and so
hard to dispel as the ignorance bred of fanaticism !
