Enthusiastic Meeting of 1'dur-
on Temperence Workers.
The
orkers-
The seventh annual convention of
-the Temperance forces of Huron coun-
ty assembled in Clinton on Thursday
last in the Presbyterian church. It
was admitted by all that this was
the best convention over field in Hur-
on county, the spirit and temper of
tho men assembled auger well for the
futureofthe county, The )noruing
session was given over to the minutes
of last year's convention, the pres-
ident's
s-
ident's annual address and field sec-
retary's report. The afterneon session
was given to the general business of
the convention.
From the report of the field secre-
tary • which was a lengthy :one we
print the following
"To give ar summary of the work
aetualiy accomplished would be a dif-
ficult task, some of i1: cannot be told.
During the nine months meetings have
been held where possible. Your sec-
retary has delivered forts addresser
and sermons in the interest of the
temperance work of the Bounty, Tbq
work of correspondence eau be estima-
ted by the fact that $12 was spent
in 'postage, letters being written at
various intervals' 'to tins Provincial
Government to members of Parlia-
ment, newspapers, county ,workers and
in answer to complaints and requestss
for Help. .
Along the line of law enforcement
we have kept in touch with local :or-
ganizations where effective and with
individual temperance ' workers when
noorganization' exists. We have vis-
ited the various- centres from, ,time to
time covering the entire county.
During lg ti to seven months no license,
convictions have been registered'; again-
st at least twelve .hotels forherlyun-
dor.licenses, 1 drug store, 1 dray1 an,
1 restaurant, 1 livery stable, and CO
or more persons vele f
nod for being
intoxicated on the public street.
The num er of
b o flees- shows three
things ist--That the law is being,vio-
lated. 2nd, -That steps are -being tak-
en to punish' offenders 3r(1, -That the
Provincial Government -acknowledges
the inability of local inspectors ,to
cope with the situation as two-thirds
of the convictions against ex -licensed
hotelsciar ere s
w l e ed 'through Ste P
t ro-
vmCial Inspector.
In our :opinion however our best,
work does not result in fines or a1:-
ing individuals, -and by the transfor-
mation of law breakers into law abid-
ing citizens.
` Many cases have been investigated
by our department and means adopt-
ed, whereby we believe we have been
instrumental in cleaning up the place,
so that from them we will have no fur-
ther trouble.
O4ir work of organization, has been
somewhat 'hampered on account of.
conditions arising' out of the war but
In due time we will have a perfect or-
ganisation. We believe the time has
come, when a' central organization in
suet places as Auburn, Dungannon, and
Belgrave will do better work thaut an
organization that recognizes the
township unit provided that every
sub -division be looked atter.
The convention adopted unanimous-
ly the following resolution re law eat
forcemeat until such times as the
Government deems opportune for the
abolitionof the local inspector's of-
fice. We place ourselves on record as
being• in favor of one inspector for
Huron at an adequate salerp in Place
of three inspectors as at, present. '19to
following is the attitude 'of the con-
vention on political action.
1. That this Convention reaffirms
as its platform the objecb for which
the Dominion Alliance stands, name-
ly, "The total supression of the traffic
in intoxicating . beverages," and de-
clares it to be the dubp of the On-
tario Legislature to enact legislation
prohibiting the ligtioa traffic as far as
is within the power of a Provincial
Legislative Assembly,
2. That this Convention calls upon
all friends of the temperance cause to
rise above party preference and alfil-
ation in earnest effort, on every op`
portunity to secure the nomination
and elriobion to the Legislative Assem-
bly of men who will support the most
progressive temperance legislation pro-
posed, regardless of party considera-
tion, and that this can only be attain-
ed by loyally standing by oanclidates
who are known, avowed and trust-
worthy supporters of the Alliance po-
licy.
3. ,That for the attainment of this
object, we can upon temperance elec-
tors throughout; the Province to take
more active part in the organisation
and management of their respective
political parties, and to Insist upon
the nomination and support of candi-
dates who will stand for principles
and proposals liereiubefore set out.
4. In order to secure the staking of
temperance the supreme issue of poli-
tics, the, Executive Committee be in-
structed to prepare concise and defin-
ite instructions for the guidance of
electors, so as to enable them. to tape
early and effective, action to ensure
the placing of good men in the field
as candidates at every bye -election
and ,general election, Provincial and
Dominion, supplying them with the
lowing be recommended as directions
Alliance and giving them all possible
advice and practical assistance.
5, That in this connection the fol -
comprehensive and important infor-
mation that ]las been compiled by the
for the Provincial Executive.
(a) That thorough organization he
effected as soon its possible in every
electoral division in the province ex-
tending to the polling sub -divisions to
Corry into definil•eaction the policy
founulatcd in the previous elation and
that conventions be called regularly.
for this purpose.
(b) That qualified organizers be
employed to do this work,
(0) That each county organization
bc.recommended to accept the Allibnes
declaration on political action as its
own platform.
(3) That where practiceable and de-
sirable., a delegation from the county
organization 'wait upon Mita 0r nominat-
ing in, c tcnbionS and ask them to
act
1
in accordance with the Alliance plat-
form ; rinse ensuring the raising of
the question in llie nominating con-
ventions
(5) That where only one suitable
candidate (as defined in clause 2.) is
nominated after such proceedings the
county organization shall promote his
Candidature and if no such candidate
is nominated by either: party the
county organization shall, if practic-
able, place a candidate of ruts own in
the field. -•

Enthusiastic Meeting of 1'dur-
on Temperence Workers.
The
orkers-
The seventh annual convention of
-the Temperance forces of Huron coun-
ty assembled in Clinton on Thursday
last in the Presbyterian church. It
was admitted by all that this was
the best convention over field in Hur-
on county, the spirit and temper of
tho men assembled auger well for the
futureofthe county, The )noruing
session was given over to the minutes
of last year's convention, the pres-
ident's
s-
ident's annual address and field sec-
retary's report. The afterneon session
was given to the general business of
the convention.
From the report of the field secre-
tary • which was a lengthy :one we
print the following
"To give ar summary of the work
aetualiy accomplished would be a dif-
ficult task, some of i1: cannot be told.
During the nine months meetings have
been held where possible. Your sec-
retary has delivered forts addresser
and sermons in the interest of the
temperance work of the Bounty, Tbq
work of correspondence eau be estima-
ted by the fact that $12 was spent
in 'postage, letters being written at
various intervals' 'to tins Provincial
Government to members of Parlia-
ment, newspapers, county ,workers and
in answer to complaints and requestss
for Help. .
Along the line of law enforcement
we have kept in touch with local :or-
ganizations where effective and with
individual temperance ' workers when
noorganization' exists. We have vis-
ited the various- centres from, ,time to
time covering the entire county.
During lg ti to seven months no license,
convictions have been registered'; again-
st at least twelve .hotels forherlyun-
dor.licenses, 1 drug store, 1 dray1 an,
1 restaurant, 1 livery stable, and CO
or more persons vele f
nod for being
intoxicated on the public street.
The num er of
b o flees- shows three
things ist--That the law is being,vio-
lated. 2nd, -That steps are -being tak-
en to punish' offenders 3r(1, -That the
Provincial Government -acknowledges
the inability of local inspectors ,to
cope with the situation as two-thirds
of the convictions against ex -licensed
hotelsciar ere s
w l e ed 'through Ste P
t ro-
vmCial Inspector.
In our :opinion however our best,
work does not result in fines or a1:-
ing individuals, -and by the transfor-
mation of law breakers into law abid-
ing citizens.
` Many cases have been investigated
by our department and means adopt-
ed, whereby we believe we have been
instrumental in cleaning up the place,
so that from them we will have no fur-
ther trouble.
O4ir work of organization, has been
somewhat 'hampered on account of.
conditions arising' out of the war but
In due time we will have a perfect or-
ganisation. We believe the time has
come, when a' central organization in
suet places as Auburn, Dungannon, and
Belgrave will do better work thaut an
organization that recognizes the
township unit provided that every
sub -division be looked atter.
The convention adopted unanimous-
ly the following resolution re law eat
forcemeat until such times as the
Government deems opportune for the
abolitionof the local inspector's of-
fice. We place ourselves on record as
being• in favor of one inspector for
Huron at an adequate salerp in Place
of three inspectors as at, present. '19to
following is the attitude 'of the con-
vention on political action.
1. That this Convention reaffirms
as its platform the objecb for which
the Dominion Alliance stands, name-
ly, "The total supression of the traffic
in intoxicating . beverages," and de-
clares it to be the dubp of the On-
tario Legislature to enact legislation
prohibiting the ligtioa traffic as far as
is within the power of a Provincial
Legislative Assembly,
2. That this Convention calls upon
all friends of the temperance cause to
rise above party preference and alfil-
ation in earnest effort, on every op`
portunity to secure the nomination
and elriobion to the Legislative Assem-
bly of men who will support the most
progressive temperance legislation pro-
posed, regardless of party considera-
tion, and that this can only be attain-
ed by loyally standing by oanclidates
who are known, avowed and trust-
worthy supporters of the Alliance po-
licy.
3. ,That for the attainment of this
object, we can upon temperance elec-
tors throughout; the Province to take
more active part in the organisation
and management of their respective
political parties, and to Insist upon
the nomination and support of candi-
dates who will stand for principles
and proposals liereiubefore set out.
4. In order to secure the staking of
temperance the supreme issue of poli-
tics, the, Executive Committee be in-
structed to prepare concise and defin-
ite instructions for the guidance of
electors, so as to enable them. to tape
early and effective, action to ensure
the placing of good men in the field
as candidates at every bye -election
and ,general election, Provincial and
Dominion, supplying them with the
lowing be recommended as directions
Alliance and giving them all possible
advice and practical assistance.
5, That in this connection the fol -
comprehensive and important infor-
mation that ]las been compiled by the
for the Provincial Executive.
(a) That thorough organization he
effected as soon its possible in every
electoral division in the province ex-
tending to the polling sub -divisions to
Corry into definil•eaction the policy
founulatcd in the previous elation and
that conventions be called regularly.
for this purpose.
(b) That qualified organizers be
employed to do this work,
(0) That each county organization
bc.recommended to accept the Allibnes
declaration on political action as its
own platform.
(3) That where practiceable and de-
sirable., a delegation from the county
organization 'wait upon Mita 0r nominat-
ing in, c tcnbionS and ask them to
act
1
in accordance with the Alliance plat-
form ; rinse ensuring the raising of
the question in llie nominating con-
ventions
(5) That where only one suitable
candidate (as defined in clause 2.) is
nominated after such proceedings the
county organization shall promote his
Candidature and if no such candidate
is nominated by either: party the
county organization shall, if practic-
able, place a candidate of ruts own in
the field. -•
