spectors funder the Dominion Act have
been, appointed and have commenced.

license holders to send in their applica-

necessary fee, and in many instance
these Inspectors have called upon th.
Retinae holders under the Provincial A
personally. Under the Dominion Ao
the sum. of $1.0 has to accompany th
application for a license, and a forth.
sum of $5 has to be paid when th
license is issued. This is all that is
collected under the Dominion Act, and
this: goes to defray the expenses of the
commissioners and inspectors and to
pay the requiredtadvertising. ` The Act,
however, provides for the collecting ofa
fee under Provincial authority for Pro-
vincial and municipal revenue purposes,
and the commissioners cannot grant a
license until the applicant has give:
satisfactory proof that he has paid or
tendered this Provincial fee to the Pro-
vincial authorities. The Dominion -Ac:
thus recognises the power of the Provin-
cial Governments to impose and collect
a license fee. So that the $15 charged
ander the Dominion Act for.the license
is simply a tax placed upon the liquor
dealers for the purpose .of_ feeing and
maintaining a horde of useless officials.
So -me of the dealers, for the sake of
peace, and it order to. make assurance
doubly sure, propose to pay this Domino
ion tax and take out a license under the
Provincial Ades welt. Of course, those
who do this, will not likely be molested
by either, but it seems to us, as we shall
hereafter show, that they are parches.
ing peace at too great a price, and that
they are simply throwing away the $15
they give to the Dominion comanission.-
ers. The test will: come with those who
.may he refused license by either author-
ity. If the commis'aioners under the
Provincial Act refuse a license to a per-
son who has been granted a license by
the Dominion commissioners then the
trouble will commence. The party will,
claim the right to sell under the Domin-
ion license, but the Provincial authori-
ties will; fine him for so doing. Here is
where the conflict of authority will come
in.
Bat, we have said that those who take
out Dominion license are throwing away
their money. This is practically the
case; as in' any event they must take oat
the Provincial license and pay the pro-
vincial fee This is sufficient to shield
thein from loss or harm, as the Ontario
Governme t have pledged themselves
to protect he license holders under their
Act, and i : the event of the Ontario Act
being decl red ultra viris, the Govern-
ment. are onnd to re-imburse those who
suffer loss y, complying with its provi-
siona, so th t it is nnecessary for the sake
of protection to pay the Dominion fee
and take out the Dominion license. The
Dominion Government, however, give
no such guarantee. The money collected
under their Act. sloes not go into the
public treasury at all, but into the
pockets of the commissioners and in-
spectors to defray their expenses and
consequently cannot be returned, and
those who pay it will just be so much
out. In fact, so far as we can see, the
.collection of this fee is simply obtaining
money under false pretenses.
In view of the decision of the Privy
Council in the Hodge ease, there can be no
doubt in the minds of any that in pass-
ing their Act the Dominion Government
and Parliament assumed powers which.
do not: belong to them, and that the re-
gulation of the liquor traffic comes exclu-
sively within the control of the Local
Legislatures..This is the opinion -now held
by the highett and most eminent legal
authorities in the load. Mr. Meredith,
the .leader of the Opposition in the
Local Legislature, is of this view. In
the Legislature on Wednesday last he
is reported by the Mail to have said :
" So far back as the winter of 882,
before the general election, he' (Mr.
Meredith),, when addressing meetings in
the western section of the Province,
speaking on behalf of the Opposition,
took the ground that in his judgment
the right to regulate the liquor traffic,
under municipal institntiona and police
regulations of the British North Ameri=
ea Act, was a matter entirely within the
Jurisdiction of the Province. (Cheers.)
Be had also taken the ground that it
was the duty of the Provincial -Legisla-
