Testimony from Orillia
Orillia carried Loual Option but the
by-law was quashed on a technicality.
The Government, however exercised
their veto power and nolieense is grant-
ed during the three year period.
"'The Police Magistrate testifies to the
success of Local Option as follows -"A
drunken man is as scarce an article on
the streets n ow as he was plentiful before,
Crime has decreased in a like ratio. 'Six
mouths previous to the passing of Local
Option the Crown Attorney appeared
in 'my court here SIX'T'EEN times,
while for the six months after the
licenses were cut off he only had to
appear ONCE. I believe the majority
of hotel keepers are now living up to the
requirements of the law fairly well.
There is no open or flagrant selling and
it is harder to get a drink in Orillia than
it is for an outsider to get into a Mason-
ic lodge.
Geo. H. Clark, Pollee Magistrate.
What more convincing testimony
could be desired than the above I Now
this is what the Chief. of Police has to
say as to the success of. Local Option in
Orillia t-
" The
-"T'he passing of the Local Option by
law was ONE or THE
HE BES 1`
rRINGS that ever happened in the
town. Io one case a lean had tricked
iia wife and four little children out on
the street and threatened to kill them if
they poked their neses inside. Together
with another policeman I succeeded ill
arresting him and he was sent to the
county jail forthreemonths, Since
Local Option came into force this man
has straightened up anti has connected
himself with one of the town churches.
"A second case was that of a man
•
whose wife was lying on her death bed
and who created such a drunken disturb.
once that we were compelled to lock him
up. This man has not been seen the
worse of liquor since Local Option came
in force.
"l'he third case was that of a drunken
man smashing things in the house while
his wife lay in bed with ababy two days
old. This man has also beep a peace
abiding citiaen since May 1st,
"The W11010 moral tote of the town
has been improved under Local Option.
There has been a great reduction of
crime of all sorts since May tat and SO
FAR AS THE POLICE ARE CON-
CERNED THERE IS NO DESIRE
TO GO BACK TO THE LICENSE
SYSTEM.
Chief of Police, Orillia.
'Phe L ieeose Inspector writes :-"'tell
the people that since we closed the bars
in Urillia crime has decreased q5 per
cent, and drunkenuess has decreased 70
per cent. :Pell them the working men
are healthy and prosperous and their,
wives and children happy and contented
compared with what existed under the
whiskey regime,"
H,
