DULMAGE ebitc r'iai Boles --It has been announced that an experiment will be conducted in Ontario this winter to determine the possibility of finishing Western steers at a profit before being ship- ped to the British market. Twenty- four grades from the Northwest Territories have been purchased for the purpose, and will be exhibited at the Guelph Fat Stock Show, after which they will go into suita- ble fattening quarters somewhere in the°Province, —The coal strike and high-priced fuel has caused a stir in Canadian peat manufacturing circles. In a recent trip, Mr. W. E. H, Carter, Secretary of the Bureau of Mines, found a new plant in course of erection at Newington, in Eastern Ontario, where a German process will be tested. The bogs at Brock- ville and Perth were also inspected. Mr. Carter says the deposits at each of these three places are up- wards of 1,000 in extent, and acres from 10 to 25 feet deep an aver- age. The success of the plant at Beaverton bas been a stimulus to the other companies experimenting in Ontario. OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. (Toronto World). Despite the general indifference of the temperance people, the vast majority of those who went to the polls signified their disapproval of the ealoon and of the treating sys- tem, and sooner or later public opinion will demand and secure legislation directed against the pre- valent "come in and have some- thing" evil, and, according to the community, more drastic regula- tions of the bar -room than those which are in"force at present. (Mail-Empiro.) No representative body or or- ganization of any kind asked for a referendum on the Liquor Act, which Mr. Ross borrowed from Manitoba. Are Mr. Ross and his colleagues content now to cease trifling with the public? Is this the final act of their series of de- ceptions? There will be a new se- ries of subterfuges ; new plans to harass and humbug. A setback the prohibition movement has re- ceived, but who can pretend that it is a, knockout blow ? So far as the temperance movement is concerned in its most important function—the education of men and women in habits of sobriety and self-control —we trust no one will assume that Ontario is either hostile or apathe- tic, The work of grappling with the evils of the traffic, of strength- ening and increasing the restric- tions, must go on, irrespectiveof referenda, or any political expe- dients, (Premier Ross.) "From the vote given, as far as known, I would not like to say that Ontario is ready for prohibi- tion. One significant incident of the campaign was the attack made upon the bar -room as the most ob- noxious feature of the liquor traffic, and if oneui eretobe w guided by that note of the campaign, it would seem as if that phase was one which must be considered in dealing with the question in the future." (Toronto Star.) The meaning is plain, and the good effect will be easily seen. A decisive step has been taken by seven cities, A. mandate which the Legislature cannot ignore has been issued by those 11,000 voters in Toronto. It is in the cities that the drink evil cries loudest for re- medy. Toronto demands a reduc- tion of the temptations of the bar- room. The whole question is on the table of the House, and the final outcome will be that distinct advantage will be . gained—more distinct and certain out of this seeming defeat than could possibly have resulted from the local tur- moil and general discredit to prohi- bition which would have followed such a seeming victory as the at- tainment of 212,000 ('Yes" votes and an enactment against which the cities would be violently oppos- ed. The immediate reduction in number and ultimate abolition of the bar -rooms is on the • program, and the Legislature must set about this work at the next session. (Toronto Telegram.) The significance of the vote can- not be minimized by idle talk to the effect that Conservatives voted for prohibition in order to hurt the Ross Government, For every Con- servative who voted for prohibition in order to hurt the Ross Govern- ment, there was at least one Liber- al who voted Against prohibition in order to help the Ross Government. The vote is a great bet in Ontario politics. The result means not that the people are in favor of ap- plied prohibition, but that they are not in favor of the liquor traffic in its present form. Prohibition is now out of court. If the prohibi- tionists believe that their ideal is still attainable they must realize that the road to their goal is not empty voting on abstract questions, They must either be strong enough to create a prohibition • party that can elect and support a government to enact a law or they must bo wise enough to move with the non -pro- hibitionists who voted with them Thursday in the direction of a re- form that will not attempt to keep liquor away from veterans who want it, but will deprive liquor of its present large chances to gain re- cruits for the drink habit, THE W INGTAM .ADVANCE, December I t, 1902 By -Law No, 468, 1902.
