Sir.—Of late I Have been travell-
ing in the interests of temperance
.work. I lutve also been receiving
a good deiid of correspondence on
the- question of temperance and
'prohibition. If you will kindly
furnish me space. there are some
few things I would like to say to
the friends of our cause through -
on?, the province.
That there is a growing aversion
to the traffic in whiskey is not to
be doubted. The conscience, that
intelligence, and the religion of
the country are being aroused more
than ever in opposition to it. .)?here
is one tact the liquor men are
clearly realizing, numely,that large
numbers of the municipalities ob-
ject to their trade, and will not
tolerate the existence of licenses. •
Hence they are making frantic
appeals to the government to force
licenses in rural districts. The
outrageous demand wl ieh they are
now melting is in effect that the
will of the people shall be ignored
in the shutter of grunting licenses.
They demand that every municipal
council shall be robbed of time-
honored and constitutional rights,
and that the government shall
exercise a kind of imperious tyran-
ny over the people, and compel
them to submit to the nuisance of
liquor license; Whether they will or
no. The truth is that the licensed
tavern is the most prolific source of
crime and misery in any coln-
Innnity Wherever it exists.
It would be a dire calamity i 'tho
Quebec Government should abuse
its power in any wily by increasing
the number of licenses. We have
far too many already. We should
rather regard it as being the im-
perative duty of the government
to diminish the number we now
have.
The people of Ontario have said
by very nearly a hundred. thousand
majority that the bar -room must
go. More than half the i inicipal-
ities in Quebec have done them-
selves honor by closing tip the bar-
room. It would be greatly to the
advantage of the remaining half
if they would fellow such a good
exe mpg e .
Just now the temperance people
of this province are face to face
with very important circumstances
The time has come to sound the
tnesin--to buckle on our tti'Illor—tn
fall into line ; and to make a milted
and determined forward ruovein ent
co fight the pernicious liquor
license. It is .a blot upon our civil-
ization. It is a disgrace to our
religion. It is a curse to our coun-
try-.
'Whenever yeti resin the tragic
story of some ?..murder, some shoot-
ing stabbing, fighting, 'brawling—
some horrid cruelties perpetrated
npon wife, and children, those
things do not in every instonee
collie . from drink, but an over-
whelming majority- of thein are the
direct results of liquor.
The next question. nncl it very
important one, is, what is the work
now to be done by temperance
people?
It may be that I ant somewhat
radical in my views, but I have u.
strong conviction that I ail) right.
There should forthwith ill an
official protest against any further
granting of licenses in every muni-
cipality in this province.
We have been content lung
enough to stand on the defensive,
Let tee assnme an aggressive atti-
tude. Old England has of late been
carrying the war into Africa. The
circumstances of the hour (I unan(1.
that the temperance electorate of
Quebec carry war into Africa.
I do inoet earnestly appeal to my*
brei•.hI'.+n of the Christian ministry
of t.11 the clhhlrc•]tes to nni re in a
nighty- strurg'oagainst the cnrze
of leerier 'icon -to. I.et the member-
ship of our C'hur'ches 1)e hL unit iIi
the noble effort.
i anneal in the name and in the
fear of (=rod to my friends; of the
xllliance, to the Royal Tenmplars—
the Good Templers—the Sons of
Temperance ; and especially to the
good sisters of the White Ribbon
army to unite in a vigorous cam-
paign for the overthrow of the
accursed license system. •
Personally I would be pleased to
forward the official blank forms
for such .a protest, :Ind for the
necessary signatures in opposition
to license, and more than that, I
would be willing as far as my time
and strength will allow, to visit
any municipality which )nay decide
to make an effort to get rid of the
license.
There are some few things which
as temperance workers we are
much in need of. It is essential
that we have a better and more
effective organization. A much
larger harvest of success might be
gathered if we were More closely
united.
The liquor men Have perfect
organization. We have not. If
we had we 'could make a pretty
clean sweep of the rural counties
and districts of the province.
Further, it seems to me that it
would be wise if the Christian tem-
perance people in every locality
would promptly place themselves
in communication with the govern-
ment; and urge upon then) that
they do not sanction any further
extension of the license system.
There is • an important amend-
ment to the license law which
should be pressed upon the govern-
ment, and which it seems to me
the government should readily
accept. It is 'this: The question
of license or no license' for the sale
of liquor should be placed upon
every ballot paper, in every muni-
cipal election.
There is just one more point to
which I deem it right to refer. 48-tf Menem Sc BENDER, Zurich.
