' De- troit naturally went wet, but the rure al sections and the rest of the state Went dry by a majority three times greater than they gave three years ago. The big women's vote was un- boabtedly a factor in rolling up this most satisfactory majority against wino and beer. But while Michigan voted "dry", we regret to report that Quebec voted "wet" by a majority probably equal to or greaten' than Michigan's "dry" majority. The cam- paign was a vigorous one. The pro- testant ministers were unaniniously in favor of making Quebec dry, but the Ani,i- Alcoholic League was divid- ed In the matter, and the Roman Catholic Church was silent. 11 was publicly argued by the liquor advo- cates that the Orangemen and the Methodist were favoring prohibition in order to injure the Roman Cathol- ic Church, and even the many dry di- stricts which will not be affected by the vote went wet by considerable majorities. No women voted but ,even if they had the result would have been about the same. The vote will mean that in Montreal, Sher- brooke, St. Johns, and a few other municipalities beer and wine will be sold; . but wiskey and strong liquors Will not be sold legally. The situa- tion in Quebec 3s so different from that in Ontario that what happened last week does not furnish any evid- ence as to what is likely to happen when the vote is taken in the later province.

A recent de- spatch represents it as a distemper, wbich may have been caused origin - slily "by putting a few blades of grass in this mouth when walking in the fields." This reminds as that there viral nee a prise poem competition at Oxford, for which one of the aspir- ants chose "Nebuchadnezzar" as his subject, and he wrote that the mon- arch, when turned out to grass, "Exclaimed as he ate the unwonted foods, It may be wholesome, but it isn't good," But Bee,verbrook is neither 'Thames nor Cherwell, and so far as Oxford is r*ntcenned he can prove an aaibi.
