Patrons and Prohibition, WHERE TILE ORDER STANDS ON TIIE QUESTLON—TIIT JURISDICTION .MUST FIRST BE SETTLED, I saw Mr. Mallory, grand president of the Patrons of Industry, this morn- ing, Busy as he was, he gave ene a few moments of this time in order to ex- plain his views on the gv:cstion of prohibition, At the outset he explain- ed that the Patrons aa a body had not made any direct pronouncement on the question, though their+otgau, the Canada Farmer's San, had all along Lean a strung advocate for :prohibition. So far as the order was concerned, they were at the present time taking a vote on the question of the Initiative and Referendum. This, he thought, at the presout time had a strong near. ing on the question of prohibition. So far the vote was strongly in favor of the Initiative and Referendum be- ing adopted as a plank in the plat. forest of the order. :Speaking for himself personally, i11r. Mallory said that he had been for years a strong prohibitionist on principle. ilia whole influence, and he believed the influence of every member of •hitt board, watt iu favor of protibition. .Irle was a strong temperance man himself, end he he- lieved the influence of the Order of i•atrons was very strongly in favor of the temperance movement. They held as u prciple,.that the majority of voters should rule. (On that priucip!e and in view of the plebiscite just taken Mr. Mallory thought that thegnesti.tn as to the pavers of the Government to pass a prohibitory thaw should be decided at once. Jit would be fo.Iy to pass such a law, which would subs•. quently be found to ,be+ultra vires. He certainly thoeght that•tlre recent vote w'as a justification .for a prohibition law to be passed as soon as possible. —Toronto 'Star. Lond.esiacn;o. G. A.
