SEAFORTH, ONTARIO,
onto studios. Three Englishmen are
reported to have contri'bu'ted. to the
early development of the tune and
lyrics which now .comprise the sta-
tional anthem. John Bull, who was
organist at 'the Chapel Royal in 1.616,
is the author of the little "ayre' which
provided the original setting for a
translation of the Scriptures, "And all
the 'people -shouted and said 'God
Save the King'." Henry Carey is said
to have ,translated the lyrics during
the reign of George II, and later in
the same period, Dr. Thomas Arne,
composer of "Rule Britannia," wrote
an arrangement for the Carey version.
COMMUNICATION
The Canada Temperance Act
Editor The Seaforth News.
Dear Sir -A deputation waited
upon the Minister of Justice at Ot-
tawa -to-day with reference 'chie;8y to
the resolution of the Ontario Legisla-
ture asking for the repeal of the Can-
ada Temperance Act. The deputation
consisted of Rev, E. S. Bishop tUe.-
briclge), Rev. John Coburn, D.D., and
Rev, R. A. 1t'.h'attam, representing
the Ontario 'Temperance Federation;
Rev. W. A. Bremner aSe'afort'h), Rev.
W'nt. A. Leitch (Fullerton), 1,Lr. F. J.
Sho•rtt 1(.Bram'pton) and 'Mr. O. D.
Cadotte (Silver Water) representing
the Temperance Federation of the
counties of Huron, Perth and Peel
and the district of Manitoulin re-
spectively.
The deputation among other mat-
ters nude the following presentations
to the Ministers'
Ill, That the request contained fn
the resolution of the 'Ontario Legisla-
ture be denied for the following rea-
sons: 1(a) The Legislature passed the
resolution 'under a misapprehension.
The Attorney -General stated oto the
House that 'the Canada Temperance
Aof had been passed and had -later.
been declared valid by 'tine Privy
,Council Jbecaaise of • a national emerg-
ency. The deputation claimed that in
neither the Act nor - in ,the 'two Mg -
rents of the Privy Council sustaining
the Net is ,there one word about an
enter:;enry, .•b) The resolution was a
si;ilation of a definite 'pledge by Bre-
nner Hep'.tnrn to submit the matter to
the courts and abide 'by 'their decision.
Tet Repeal of the Act' by the Domin-
ion Parliament is unnecessary 'be-
cause the people in the counties con-
cerned can repeal it at any time by a
majority vote. (d) The Act furnishes
a convenient and useful method of ob-
taining local option on a county basis.
The automobile has reduced some-
what the effectiveness of municipal
local ..ptio:t. 'l'o 'be fully effective a
aider area is needed. fir. Conant was
.ererely criticized for re -presenting
that the people of any municipality
co:ticl at any time prohibit the traffic
in their arra. This is not true. By
amendments to the law the Hepburn
administration has made the enact-
ment of local option very ,difficult.
is) Only forty-eight Liberal members
of the Legislature voted for -the resol-
n'tion. Many absented t'hentselves. If
some had dared to vote in harmony
with their convictions the ,m'ajori'ty
would have been much smaller.
2. The deputation called attention
to the present lawless conditions in
Huron, Perth/ Peel and Manitoulin.
In the three counties beer is now
being sold on the authority of the On-
tario Liquor Control 'Board in defi-
ance of lave. In Manitoulin Island the
Attorney -General has refused to en-
force either the Canada Temperance
Act or the Ontario Liquor Control
Act; there is now .free, uncontrolled,
unregulated sale .of liquor. In the Is-
land there are four Indian Reserves,
The Dominion Government is 'respon-
.ibie for them as wards. The de•p•uta-
tion asked that .for a time at least the
Dominion Government step in and en-
force the law.
The deputation else urged that the
question of the 'consti'tu'tionality of
the Act he once more submitted to
the court; and also a ruling asked a•s
to the duty of the ,provincial govern-
ments ' o enforce it.
