A hotel roan in Port Colborne wants to tell out, and gives, an one of the reasons why • good trade should be dune. that then is "no Salvation army Imre." Evidently the Port Colborne hotel ratan thought the presence of the Salvation army in town would be inimical to his chances of selling or renting his hostelry to advantage, hence he makes special megtien of the fact that there is "no Salvation army hero.' We commend the candid statement of thus honest liquor vendor to those pharisaically dis- posal persons who ignore the work of the revivalists, for "praise from Sir Hubert is praise, indeed." The opinion of the Port Colbnrue man is the opinion of his brethren of the craft all slung the line. Why, even in G.al.»ch where we have wenn of the hest men in the business, Burne une will occasionally for- get himself, and show animus to the "army" and its sympathisers. Only ern Tuesday last a roan 10 sympathy with the movement, and who had drives a couple of officers of the Lord's army h the station, was au`ht in a shower, and drove his vehicle into • hotel shed for shelter. The urbane proprietor immedi- ately rushed out and ordered the vehicle out of the shed, saying that he "didn't keep his sheds for such people." The "anuy" "sympathiser took out his rig, and suffered for conscience sake. The "army" sympathiser should net have done se. The hotel and its sheds are for the public accommodation, and he should have availed himself of his privileges, and stayed where he was until the rain storm abated. Hotels are licensed under the Crooks Act to accom- modate the public, and any hotel man failing to comply with the provisions, and making invidious distinctions as between travellers, is liable to bave his license suspended. Th. license inspector should look int. the matter, and see that the offence be not repented. Til sin?

The closing let- ter (appeared au the (dobe of Mi nday, and we reproduce it for the benefit ail our readers. It abuuld be caroully rad. and kept for reference It is not the letter of a teetuller, or of a temper- ance laitizar it is the opinion of a MO sent to get at the truth of a great experiment, and it goes no uncertain sound. The writer says - The substance u( soy observations con- cerning the workings of the Scutt Act in Provinces is. first, that the East Imo a temperance sentiinent vastly strong- er than the West ; mound, that the Innes dti�e people are unifonnl) metro sober and orderly, am!, third. that the Scott Act l.roni.otes the sure and steady growth tot ni..rallty, order, and sobriety in the solutnunity. It is absurd to argue that the neon Act should be denounced as • farce acid a failure in cases where it has • failed absolutely to suppress the tr•oie in liquor. It is most unjust to expect the Scutt Act to scc,mpluh what no law in the history .•f the world everaccomplish- ed-the absolute observance of its pro- visions. There will be law -breakers under the Scott Act just as there aro ; law -breakers uuder every other statute f designed to promote the public well- ' being : but if the law punishes and re- plats the punishment until the violator of the statute is compelled to j old obi- i dience or retreat beyond the limits of respectatility and decent citizenship, it Ihas LAR.:r[Y btheHARGED 1Tx DUTY AawLUTILT errancy wino= is Nova Scotia. I may also ohsety that dung the whole period al my visit to the East I did sot see an intoxicated in- dividual except is lit. John, N. B., and Halifax and Windsor, N. 8. Siaptulasl enough on toy tint suit to $t. John 1 failed to .*e any drunkenness as related in the fourth letter of this swiss, but on my return t.. that city from Fredericton co route to Digby, N. tl., I saw say nim- bler of intoxicated individuals, both ten the .treet,in the ssl.00us, and is at least, ,no .1 the most respectable hotels. I wake nu •p,logy for arty failure w ob- merre this condition of thins un the oc- casion of soy Mint visit. My observa- tions on my return were conducted on almost exactly identical lines in the mime tomtit's, but the drunkenness which 1 failed to detect on my first survey was obtrusively •poarent on my second. The general observations 1 have ventured as to the large measure of restricta.ns im- posed upon the traffic by the Scott Act will nut be disputed, I fancy, by anmant familiar with the facts ..r disposed im- partially to consider all the enema - stances of the ase. The impirtatiolu of spirits from foreign countries have largely decreased. _ It is true the Inland Asserts returns show an increase in the consumption a Canadian -manufactured spirits, nut this is pxplaiued by the fact that Canadian liquors are displacing those of foreign manufacture. On the ..then hand the prolonged suspension of the Scott Act, pending the deliverance of legal deci- sions, and the possible larger consump- tion of intoxicants in adjoining license counties, may have helped to incomes the consumption. There can be no question but that the Act Sas MATERIALLY Dar'UAHED to suciety. Sackville furnishes a good illustration .•f this view of the case. 1 Bar -room drinking, the social feature of I the traffic, has been wholly suppressed, land tnereby the most potent agency in 1 the manufacture of drunkare's reuwved, for after all the great curse and danger of the li.tunr traffic is the soc'al treating of the public barroom. The places in tiaci;ville whets li.}uet. can be obtained are so utterly degraded in luck, ebar•c- ter, and meth .d that the younr men of the cunimunity will not visit there, and their very existence serves more than } anything else to make drinking repulsive and to confirm the people in their allegiance to prohibitory legislation. In Sackville, then, it is only a few of the I mors degroded products of the license system who connive at the violation of the law. in Kings, in Fredericton, in Digby. in every constituency where the interference of the law has not disabled the Act, the same results are the out- , corse .1 its operation. In Neva Scotia the Act succeeded a local law equally 1 stringent and of largely identical char - actor. The change permitted the alert liquor interest to initiate a contest in the Coons, and throughout rhe whole period I of its operations in that Province this • contest has been continued and the effect .d the law 'ERIO(SLT W5AKESED in consequence,. Than, ten, tits old Nova Scotia law provided • clerk of licenses to conduct prosecutions while the Scutt Act was absolutely without en- • f..rcing rna. hinery. Despite all these 1. disadvantage, however, statistics show a decrease. I admit that with the excep- t Pun of Fredericton and Sackville I found little difficulty in obtaining liquor at any point on my route. and it is arrued that if 1. a straneer, could obtain lugaor thus ' easily a native could obtain it much more easily. This contention I utterly _ deny. The fact that 1 was a stranger, Tea number ,f cases of thieving that that 1 registered "Toronto," and that I fl war probably ignorant and unconcerned has occurred in (:od*rich recently is as to what the prevailing honor law most startling. In some instances the might be, was the very certificate "f depredators have ountind themselvss 10 safety the average landlord wanted. it articles of comparatively trivial vapor, is confidently assumed by the hotel -keep- er in such cases that the guest is sot at but although they have thus shown that they do not despise the small things, yet have they had nefarious transections with articles ..f bulk and value. "From an anchor to a needie," has been often used by way of cump.srw.n, but Gods - rich thieves have, during the past week, run the gamut from a geranium plant to a bale of carpet, with ogee, butter, hang, underclothing, and other things too numerous to mention, sandwiched be- all likely to play the part .1 an informer, or to be used as a witness against him. At the Sackville "dive" my visit v. which 1 noted in a previous letter, the one thing that enabled me to procure liquor was my assurance to the landlady that i was a stranger. Then too. 1 was as a general thing taken for • commer- cial man, representing an Ontario House, although I certainly did not seek to give color to this widely accepted fiction.

I have frequently made the assert:on that there is a much stronger temperance sentiment in the Eastern Provinces than in Quebec and Ontario, and if the Dominion Blue Hooks be trustworthy this sentiment has very appreciablyreduced consumption of liquor in the e e East as compared with the West. The following table gives the consumption per head of the population for the year 1883 :-- t;ALLONs eMilit'MED PER HEAD. Spirits. Beer. Wine.

That the liquor con- sumption of New Brunswick is slightly in excess of that of Nova Scotia is legit- imately ascribable, in my opinion, to the fact that the former Province has had a more limited experience of the workings of local prohibition. A %muse of Reform meetings will be held in East Huron shortly. The idea is a good one, and we fail to' see why other constituencies do not also adopt it.

The report was an insult to the intelli- gence of the people of St. Thomas. 1'Hs fact thaat Hon. David Milts was recently baptized by immersion on join- ing the Baptist church at Palmyra, is a subject for attempted wit on the part of some of those Tory editors who continu- ally sneer at "Christian statesmen."
