The weather man must have turned
on the wrong tap lase week when. he
grave ue so much hot weather, Thurs-
day Friday and Saturday, it being as
warm as July cyst
We aeaen.andieectly. that some critice,
esin of the Weal papers has been!
made because of their iuserteoa of 1
the advertising of It he Citizen's Lib-
erty League says the Godelach Signal.
The criticism arise e from a reetriata
ed conception of the obligations of a
newspaper to the community in. which
it
£s publish:ed. A question is before
the public with regard to which therci
is a variety of opiaion, and any man
4>r any body •of mann., is ciliated to a'
fair ana reasonable opportunity of
publicly staling his rime • on the
auestiOn To:It-ay thia opportunity is
to deny a fundamental right of citiz-
enship. :Those who. assail the news-
papers far granting this oaportuatty
to the Citizen's Liberty League might
ae well say that 'tate poll offiNelale
abould accept the votes only to those
who vote their way. The ad-
S'eatieements in, question are signed
with the names of citizens of this .
Province, any newspaper publisher
who for fear of offending his c.onstit-
• ueaey would reject them, would, in
our opinion be unfit for his position.
la that zeal for a great cause, ativo-
catee of prohibition should n,ot far -
get that there are other great causes
ani one at these that the futwspaper
man, bas espectielly in his keeping is
the entree of freedom of public dis-

Ontario Temperance Act
A Great Benefit to Province
,HE Ontario Temperance Act has reduced
crime by over one-third. and drunkenness in
public has practically disappeared.
Alcoholic insanity has disappeared.
Gold cures and alcoholic institutes for treat-
ing alcoholism have been closed for lack of
patients.
Ontario has been saved an annual drink bill of
$36,000,000, enough to pay our share of interest
on the War Debt.
Many victims of alcohol three yeaiS ago, thank
God to -day for the Ontario Temperance At.

eradicated -Let a root must
be left behind."
To repeal the Ontario Ternperarce Act would be a calamity. The
amendments would make it practically worthless. To every ques-
