Some BrieF Notes on the Canada Temperance Act This series of articles, which will anneal' in your paper from week to week, are :mon- ocled by the Temperance Federation and W. C. T. U. of Huron County. Their purpose is to give a brief histoty of the origin, scope and possibility of enforcement of the Canada Temperance Act from the time of its inception up to the Present. No. 1—THE ORIGIN OF THE ACT The Canada Temperance Act, over which much controversy has of late years arisen, was formerly popularly known by the name The Scott Act. It is a Dominion .statute, originally enacted in 1187.8, This was about ten years after Confederation. Under the old ;regime of Upper and Lower Canada, Ontario and Quebec had a local option measure known as the Dunkin Art applicable to villages, towns, townships, etc, The Maritimes, where temperance sentiment was pro- notinced, were anxious for a like priv- ilege and it was thought desirable to have a uniform law. The Canada Temperance Act was the outcome of these circumstances. The Canada Temperance Act had wide vogue in 'Nova Scotia .and Nev. Brunswick and for some time in On- tario and parts of Quebec. Its advan- tages are that it is a county measure (being applicable to counties or cit- ies) and that it is ibrought in or re- moved on a simple majority vote of the electors concerned, While forbid- ding retail sale of liquor within a ebunty, it .perrnits a brewery or dis- tillery located with the area to sell in wholesale lots to .purchasers resident beyond its bounds. It also permits private individuals to bring in liquor front outside for personal use under certain conditions. Difficulties over responsibility for enforcement as between the provinc- ial and Dominion authorities, ,de„stroy- ed the early Pfeatige of the Act; but in 1887 tinder Sir Oliver Mowat an act 056 passed by the ;Ontario Legis- lature enjoining all his officers and commissioners to enforce with like vigilance the Canada Temperan ce Act and the Liquor License law of the province. From that time until Mr. iHepbern's regime it was considered the duty ,of all officers to enforce both laws. The adoption of tbis atti- tude came too late to revive at that thne the lost prestige of the Canada Temperance Act. Its use was discon- tinued in Ontario and was, succeeded in a short time by municipal local Option.
