PROHIBITION 1N ONTARIO
The following statement was made
by Mr. N. W. Rowell, K.C.. M.P.P.,
Leader of the Opposition in the Ontario
Legislature on September the kith before i I I,
leaving London, England. The Liberal { 1,
Leader sailed from Liverpool on
September 9th: -
"September 16th marks a new era in
the industrial and social life of the
Province," said Mr. N. W. Rowell, K.
C., Leader of the Liberal Opposition in
Ontario in speaking to The Globe to -day
with reference to the coming into
operation of the new Ontario Temper-
ance Act. Thousands of our fellow -
citizens have given years of unselfish
service to secure the coming of this
day; others have cheerfully given up
fur the public good that which they
claimed to be their right; and the bill
which passed the Legislature without a
dissenting voice comes into operation as
an expression of deep conviction as well
as of the patriotic spirit of the people
of the Province. All I have learned
from Russians of the affect of the pro-
hibition of the sale of liquor in Russia,
and all I have seen and learned in
France and Great Britain, confirm the
wisdom and patriotism of the course
pursued in closing all drinking places in
Ontario during the war.
"When the war is over and our
gallant soldiers who survive the conflict
have returned to their homes, and
normal conditions have been re-estab•
lished,'the people of the Province will
have the opportunity of saying whether
they wish the law to continue, or to re-
vert to former conditions. I am con-
vinced that if the law is well enforced
it will be as permanent as our local
option laws have proved to be, and the
benefits to the whole Province will be
as great as or greater than those which
have accrued to citizens in local option
communities."
"The passing of the law removes
from those engaged in the hotel busi-
ness the civil and social disabilities
from which they have hitherto suffered
by reason of the bar, and I am persuad-
ed that if the law is well enforced the
time will yet come when even those
who most strongly oppose the present
act will acknowledge that the closing
of the drinking places during the war
was a wise and patriotic course to
fl
pursue."
EDITORIAL NOTES
British Columbia completes the solid
block of Province with Liberal Govern-
ments from Ontario to the Pacific
Ocean. The Eastern Provinces are
more equally divided, Ontario, New
Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island,
Conservative, Quebec and Nova Scotia,
Liberal. In Ontario five bye -elections
have been held in recent years, and 'all
have been unfavorable to the Govern-
ment, big majorities being cut down in
Hamilton and Dundas, while in three con-
stituencies formerly Conservatives, the
Government candidates have been de-
feated. Three of the Ontario contests
were held before the prohibition law
was passed.
Two weeks after outbreak of the war
The Outlook said: "We believe with
Hegel that God has a plan and that his-
tory is nothiug but the working out of
His plan in human affairs. And we
believe that the Austrian Prime Minis-
ter and the German Emperor have
made a fatal mistake in leaving this
truth out of their reeking in their
endeavor to destroy the great demon-
cratic movement in Europe." That
faith we repeat. The end of this war
will come with the end of militarism,
not before. And the end of militarism
will come when the German people
realize the fatal blunder of war lords,
the falsity of their philosophy and the
futile malice of their purpose. It
may come only gradually as the wear-
ing away of the German forces con-
vinces the German people that militar-
ism has failed; it may come suddenly
with a disaster to German arms so
overwhelming that no explanatiovan
destroy its effect on the mind of the
German people. But it will come in
1,144 Germany, as it came in our country,
when the ambitious hopes of the leaders
are destroyed and the people awake to
the truth. -New York Outlook.

COAL
HOW IT AFFEC I'S C. T. A. COS
One of the results of prohibition in
Ontario will be a sharper distinction be-
tween hotels in the true sense of the
term and places that ale hotels only in
name. Of such a distinction there has
always been a clamant need. A hotel
is a place for the entertainment of
strangers. The traveling public needs
lodging, food, and such other comforts
as are usually obtainable at home.
These hostelries are expected to pro-
vide. How hotel -keeping ever came to
be associated with the sale of liquor it
would be difficult to explain, unless we
think how natural it would be to "tarry
long at the wine" in the good old inns
of Elizabethan days. So far as the
Province of Ontario is concerned, per-
haps the connection arose from the
terms of the license law, which made
no provision whatever for saloons, and
presumed that everyone receiving a
hotel license for the sale of liquor was
the keeper of a legitimate tavern.
One of the designs of the Ontario
License Commission, which would have
been carried out if prohibition had not
intervened, was the wedding out of all
mere drinking -places in favor of the
bona fide hotels. Perhaps prohibition
will produce a similar result. -From the
Hamilton Spectator.

Some added restrictions regarding
the sale and use of liquor as taken
from the new Dominion Temperance
Acts and the Ontario Temperance Act
which are now in use and apply the to
C. T. A. counties of Huron and Perth:
1. Any person who sells, sends, ships,
brings, delivers, or causes to be sent,
shipped, brought or delivered, liquor
into the Province of Ontario for other
than personal or family use, (except to
persons licensed to sell) is liable to be
fined.
2. All liquor sent into Ontario for
personal or family use must be plainly
labelled to show the actual contents and
the name of the shipper, also the cor-
rect name of the person who is import-
ing it, and any railway or express agent
is liabe to be fined who handles a ship-
ment which is : not so addressed' and
lLbelled.
3. Personal or family use is to be
taken in a very restricted sense and
only includes the members of the house-
hold, and does not include guests.
4. The only place liquor can be kept
by any person not licensed to sell, is in
a private dwelling, and does not pre -
mit its being kept, under any pretense
in a boarding -house (for lodgers other
than the members of the family is
considered a boarding house), hotel,
shop, office, club, work -shop or store,
and a priyane dwelling is very strictly
defined in the Ontario Temperance Act.
5. Where a person is found upon a
street, highway or in any public place
in this Province in an intoxicated con -
tion he shall be guilty of an offence
against this Act, and upon any prosecu-
tion for such offence he shall be con -
pellable to state the name of the perso
from whom and the place in which
he obtained the iquor which caused
the intoxication, and in the case
of his refusal to do so he shall be im-
prisoned for a period not exceeding
three months or until he discloses such
information. The penalty for being
found drunk, is a fine of not lees than
$10.00, nor more than 8I00.00, and in
default of immediate payment to im-
prisonment for a period of not less
than ten days or more than two
months.
6. Under the Canada Temperance Act
as amended a search of any place may
be made by an officer of the law,
at any time of the day or night; form-
erly a search could only be made from
six a. m. to nine p. m.
7. The penalty for a first offence
against the C. T. A. is not less than
850.00,and not more than $100.00, or
imprisonment for a term not exceeding
one month with or without bard labour
and, for a second and every subsequent
offence,to imprisonment for a term not
exceeding four months, with or without
hard labour.
8. Penalties for violations of the
Ontario Temperance Act vary from
, $50.00 to $1000.00.

Clean-up of
Summer Limps
During the next few days we will sort
over our Summer Goods and put a
price on them that will clean up all
odd lines and ends for the season.
Muslins, Ciinghams, Voiles,
Mulls, Grapes, etc.
will be sold with one object in view
only, namely, to clean up"y every yard
for the season. This will be a chance
to fill your late summer needs at less

D. & A. Corsets
Why buy the cheapest Corsets you
can get? Why not get hold of some-
thing genuinely good in quality and
satisfaction and stick to it. Economy
in Corsets doesn't mean paying out
the least money. It means getting
the most in style, comfort and wear
for the money you do pay out. We
have customers who insist on D. & A.
Corsets at $2.50 and $3.00 in prefer-
ence to less expensive lines. They
last longer as a matter of course and
are correspondingly finer in work-
manship and finish. Try theplan of
paying a little more and getting a
little better. Corsets are like shoes.
The best are the cheapest in the end.
