HON. SIR JAMES P. WHITNEY,
K.C.M.G,
Prime' Minister of Ontario
For what. Sir James Whitney is,
and for what his Government bas done
he is trusted and respected. He is
the last man to make any cringing ap-
peal for office. He has no paid re -
melees nor "war chest" nor any "ma
chine e'c servant, is a Stabil silvan , •ivho
will hold office only on terms hon-
orable to himself. Bluff, fearless, and
incoriuptable, he governs by solid a-
chievements and not by professions
tricks and artifices. Unlike many poi
eticiarss, he has kept in office all the
pledges he made when, he was in Op-
positior what he said he would do
he has ,dome what he said he would
not do he has not done and will not
do. There is not better chapter in
the Canadian historythan that which
has been written by the Whitney
Government.
The Ohristien Guardion said, -"We
are not of those who fail to Fee any-
thing good in what the present Gov-
ernment in Ontario has done touch-
ing the interests of ternper>;nce, We
arenot of those who believe i h:.t the
Government has sold out the hquor
interests."
- —o—
In finding the secret of permanence
the Whitney Goveennwent bas done
asupreme'service to prohibitionists, it
is offensive and foolish to suggest that
the issue of the election was between.
"the bar and the hay," any municip-
ality, or any county in Ontario, can
abolish the bar by existing legislation
Conservatives bitterly resent the
charge that they are allies of the
liquor interest because they adhere
to the Government that has made a-
bolition permanent and effective.
The safe and the sure way of temp-
erance reform is to go slowly and
surely, to educate the public opinion
to support it so that when you have
prohibitory laws they will have be-
hind them a great body of public opin-
ion. A body of people .who have or-
ganized themselves and worked for it
who have brought about abolition of
the bar and the shop by their own ef-
forts -that we venture to say, is a
way that does appeal to the reason
and common sense of the temperance
people.
