THE IWRON EXPOSITOR
SEA.FORTII, Friday, Oct. -29, 1920.
THE REFERENDUK IN THE
PROVINCES
British Columbia on Wednesday last.
voted overwhelmingly in favor of
Government control of the sale of
liquor. With returns from many
parfs of the province indicating- tlfat
the present Prohibition Act has, been
defeated in cities and towns and vil-
lages, the majority ID favor of Gov-
ernment control totals approximate-
ly 15,000. Moderationists, however,
claim that when final figures are in,
the majority in favor of Government
control will total close to 80,000.
Moderationists , who supported Gov-
ernment control of the sale of liquor,
have scored a great victory, and the
defeat of the present "dry" Act -is
conclusive.
All the cities in the lower main-
land and Vancouver Island returned
large majorities in favor of the re-
peal of the present .At, the out-
standing surprises of the; voting be-
ing the large "wet" majority record-
ed jn Vancouver city, of 10,176.
Victoria also gave a large majority
for a "wet" law of 8,821, while New
Wedminster and Prince Rupert re-
gistered a vote favorable to Gov-
ernment control. Kamloops, Nanai-
mo, Fernie, Rossland,_ did likeviise. -
A record vote was polled, not only
in the cities and towns but in the
rural districts as well. The women
took park in the voting, following
an active' part in the campaign.
Final official figures of the vote
in Vancouver city. are: Government
control,. 23,942; prohibition, 13,766.
Forme has given a large majority
for Government control, the vote be-
ing, Prohibition, 236; Government
control, 613. Coal Creek vote is,
Prohibition, 14; Government control,
97.
In Crow's Nest, the vote stands
Prohibition, 82; control, 16.
Nelson, final vote stands, Prohibi-
tion 914; Control, 891.
The questions on which the people
' voted are as follows:
Which do you prefer: -(1) The
present Prohibition Act, or (2) an
Act to provide for Government con-
trol and sale in sealed packages of
spirituous and malted liquors?
In the 1916 referendum on the
liquor question the vote -was: For
prohibition, 41,806;. !against, 86,102.-
The women did not vote in 1916, but
they had. the ballot on Wednesday.
Returns from all over the pro-
vinces of Manitoba, Sa*atchewan
and Alberta indicate & coxnplete vic-
tory for the temperance forces in the
rderendum taken in the Prairie
Provinces on Monday of this week.
In Manitoba the striking figure is
the wet majority in the city of Winni-
peg, which now totails 6,328, but
twelve of the country diStricts will
roll up large majorities of around 10,-
000, and the net result will likely be
a majority' for the drys of from five
to six -thousand. The large wet ma-
jority in Springfield is accounted for
by the big liquor vote in St. Boniface,
where 13 polls went wet by a major-
ity of 1,166, the drys only having, all.
told, 674 votes.
In Alberta returns completed at'
the Provincial prohibition headquar-
ters at Edmonton indicate that the
voters of Alberta have decided by a
majority estimated at 15,000 in favor
of prohibiting the importation of
liquor into the province. Edmonton
City has given a majority of 1,300
for the drys,t Calgary 1,200, while
Medicine Hat has a majority of 100.
Lethbridge is the only city le far
reported to go wet with a majority.
of 216. It is asserted that each of
the twelve Federal constituencies
will show a majority ranging from
1,000 to 1,500 in their favor.
The strongest votes for importa-
tion of liquar were recorded in the
mining sections of the province and.
in the French-speaking districts.
Possibly the cornpar3atively nar-
row vote for temperance in Sas-
katchewan is one of the surprises
of the day, for the province is a
stronghold_ of the drys. The total
figure may be about eight thousand
of a majority for the temperance
reformers for all the provinces, and
this, as in the other provinces, has
been mostly _got in the rural con-
stituencies. The cities totalled dry
by rather narrow majorities, and
Regina, the capital, is stated to be
in the wet column,. This may he
changed on the official counting.
It is estimated that Nova Scotia
has gone "bone dry" by over 40,000
majority. Halifax alone, of all the
towns heard from, gave a wet major-
ity. The mining and industrial
centres, which many had indicated.
would vote wet, went dry by large
majorities. Apparently little interest
was taken in the referendum, as an.
excePtionally small vote was cast. In
Halifax, which recorded 1,054 Major-
ity for the "wets" less than one-third
of the qualified voters went to the
polls. Early returns indicated an
even smaller percentage of ,actual
voters to qualified voters in the rural
sections of the province. Sydney City,
gave 1,582 for bone dry.
An order -in -Council is to be pass-
ed by the Dominion' Government
fixing a date after which importa-
tion of liquor into the provinces
which, went "bone dry" will be pro-
hibited:, Under an Intendment to the
Canada Temperance At, passed last
year, it is provided that, after the
prohibition of importation is declared,
to be m force:
(1) -No person shall impart into
the province concerned any intoxi-
cating liquor.
(2) -No person shall manufac-
tura or sell any ihtoxicating liquor
to be unlawfully imported into the
province.
(8 -The carriage of intoxicating
liquor through the province shall
only b`g by means of a commix car-
rier, by water or by railway, and
during the time any intoxicating
liquor is being so transported no per-
son shall open or break any package
or vessel containing such intoxicating
liquor, or drink or. use eny of the
1
Monday's dry votes will close an
avenue of .liquoretraffic opened when
the prohibition order -in -Council Was
rescinded *et 'December. The or-
der-in-Couneil was a war measure
and pissed under the terms of, the
War Measures Act It prohibited
both manufacture and importation
of intoxicating liquor. With the
termination of the order -in -Council,
however, a resident in "dry" terri-
tory could import for his own per-
sonal use, but not for sale. Now,
all importation; into the, "bone dry"
provinces will be -prohibited.
Monday's plebiscites Were the first
to be taken undsr the legislation of
last year.
Importation of liquor in the four
Provinces which voted "dry" Monday
will still be possible for a period of
at least 60 days. Provision is .inade
in the amendments to the Canada
Temperance Act passed last session
for the issuance of the necessary
proclamations by the Federal Govern-
ment, but not before a period of 60
days has elapsed after the, adoption
by a Province of the bone-dry prin-
ciple.

Josephine, youngest daughter of Mrs.
Thomas Kale was united in the holy
bends of matrimony te Mr. Jellies E.

Marjorie Nolan, beautifully attired in
a gown of navy blue silk With. ermine
Mrs. The groom was supported by
Mr. Thos. Moylan. After the cere-
mony the happy couple motered to
the home of the bride's mother, where
a sumptuous wedding breakfast was
prepared. After breakfast was serv-
ed a motor tour of the surrounding

the guest* on leaving expressed the
wish that 'the newly -wedded couple

fine home which the groom reeently
purchased on the -7th concession of
McKillop.

and got away without leaving a clue
of any kind. They first entered the
Shamrock creamery by forcing a
door, and took away 600 pounds of
the finest butter. The thieves- in
their hurry overlooked a large num-
ber of envelopes filled with money,
which were to be sent out to the
patrons of the factory the follpwing
day. The next visit was made to the
G. T. R. depot, where $10 in silver
was taken from the till, and from the
freigh-E house about 200 pounds of
sugar, tea, soap and other articles
were removed. No one is apparently
working on the 'case, as there is no
police officer here. It is expected
that other. places in the district may
be visited and the burglars may get
a warm reception from shotguns.
