That the electors of Ontario may be blinded to the other great issues seems the chance of suc- cess into which he is throwingell his efforts. The Whitney Government's request that the electorate express their opinion on the Workmen's Com- pensation Act, the •highways improve- ment proposals apportioning $30,000,- 000 to new roads, and the Hydro radials legislation, excites Mr. Rowell Only to an expression ° of agreement; or the most meagre criticism; Even upon the single issue :which , he has. selected, the Government of Sir Tames Whitney Is doubly willing to have the judgment of the: electors. Placed side by side the records of Sir James Whit- ney and Mr. Rowell in regard to`teni- perance are precisely as follows: Rowell Upheld Ross Mr. Rowell supported by this' votes and numerous platform appearances HON. SIR JAMES P.-- WHITNEY, . K.C.M.G, Prime Minister of Ontario the long era of Liberal rule in On- tario during' which two Liberal Govern- idients pledged themselves to enact the largest measure of prohibition in their power, although upon receiving large majorities favoring prohibition deliberately disregarded either prom- ises or plebiscites. Mr. Rowell stood shoulder to shoulder with his party 1n those twin fiascos. The notorious administration of liquor laws by the Ross Government brought from him noword of condemnation, even though the laxity of law enforcement and the misuse of the licensing power excited distrust throughout the ranks. of Liberal electors, and caused in part the downfall of that administration. With that as his political past, Mr. Rowell resurrects in 1914 the old Liberal device, the promise of partial prohibition, trusting that memories may not recall the dismal associations which Liberalism has contributed to the cause of temperance in Ontario. Against Mr. Rowell's third -time of- fer of the . Liberal sudden -cure, Sir James Whitney and his Government place the demonstrated facts of an. enormous advance towards real ,tem,. perance since the term of their, ad- ministration began. The Ross Government left th, province with 2,814 liquor licenses :;: 190-4. In ten years under the Whit .le- Government's plan of constantly strengthenina the hands of the tem- perance forces, no less than 1,211 licenses were cut off. In the poet eight years the number of muni?! panties under local option has in creased frcm 9.6 to 841, while th taxes paced cn the liquor trade iia vo been exactly doubled. Only by tlhS strictest and non-partisan enforce. meat of the license laws, and by over. two -score .important amrnclments, to the Act, has such striking progress been possible. The ill -working local option bylaws of the old government' was rendered practicable and clear, the power of the municipal couttc;ls over loc,al option votes was cancei;el, and the expressed will of the peop'e was otherwise made supreme -awl easy of application, Unsolicited Testimonies Testimonies to the Whitney Govern' meat's achievements in the interests of temperance have come fromall quarters.
