Messrs, A. E, Lloyd of Wingham, and A. T. Cooper, of Clinton, brought to the attention of the delegates' the various steps that had been taken. since 1885, when the Canada Temper- ance Act (Scott Act) was first car- ried in the County. This Act remain- ed in force from 1885 to 1888, when it was replaced because of the divided jurisdiction between the Ontario and Dominion Governments, ''neither one accepting responsibility for it's en- forcement. From 1905 to 1912, Local Option campaigns were inaugurated in most of the municipalities and suc- cessfully carried in the Town of Clin- ton and eleven Townships. Hensall carried Local Option under the three fifths majority clause and afterwards defeated it with the three fifths. God- erich township and West Wawanosh were under no license.' In .the year 1913 after several of the towns and villages, although giving a majority curs CUT!COAL! COSTS! INSTALL A BLO `` ER AND CUT YOUR FUEL BILL FROM 25 TO 50 PER CENT.

The vote was taken on Jan, 29th, and the Act adopted by a majority of 2608, The C.T.A. remained in effect until Dec, ember, 1920, when it was temporarily suspended by a 25% petition of the electors in order that the County might secure the advantage of the Ontario Temperance Act on account of it's more severe penalties, By an order in, Council the C.T.A. was to remain suspended as long as the Pro- vincial law was as restrictive as the C.T.A. Huron County has always given. very large dry majorities as shown in the Plebiscites on the O.T,A. in 1919 and 1924, when the dry majorities were 12,777 and 11,945, respectively, while the vote in 1921 to ,stop the im- portation of,,,liquor into the Province, the dry majority was 10,795. $ince. the Government Control Act for Ont- ario was introduced the Counties of Huron, Perth and, Peel, where the C. T.A. had been carried previous to the introduction of the O.T.A., were re- cognized as Local Option territory and no. Government stores had been established in these Counties. The Liquor Control Act as passed at the last session of the Legislature also recognized these Counties as dry ter- ritory, as shown by Clause 14 of the Act, It was therefore a great surprise to the dry electors of Huron when the Ontario Government started is- suing authorities to sell beer to some of the standard hotels in this County. The meeting expressed themselves as emphatically opposed to the sale of beer and wine in beverage rooms and joint action is to be taken where- by these three Counties will present their claim to the Government show- ing that because the C.T.A. has not been repealed no sales of liquor can legally take place in these Counties. A representative committee consisting of M. W. Howell, Goderich; R. J. Mc- Millian, Seaforth; C. J. Moorehouse, Brussels; C. D. Barrett, Blyth; W. G. Medd, Exeter; Frank Howson, Wing - ham; N. W. Trewartha, Clinton; A. A. Williams, Ethel; A. E. Sinclair, Hensall; Mrs. W. T. Bunt, Goderich. Miss Jean Murray, Exeter; and A. T. Cooper, Clinton; as chairman. This committee is authorized to proceed in whatever manner is thought advisable by the joint committee of the three Counties.
