The 1 etc ,t report from headquar- ters gives thirty-six victories to the prohibitionists, six of these being on votes to repeal. Thirty munici- palities.- therefore, will be for the first time brought under local pro- hibition in May next, and adding these to the number already under prohibition, we have no loss than three hundred and sixteen munici- palities in this province the citizens of which have voted the liquor traffic out of existence The recent vote will clot e over one Hundred licensed place, ninety-six being the exact number so fur as reports have been received, and there are sure to be several to add to this. These figures are certainly cheering. So fax as returns are in,- the pro- hibitionists have failed to carry the local option by-law in twenty-seven other municipalities because of the requirement of the three fifths elause. In each one of these eases there was a Inajority of the voters favnrin ; lecttl prohibition, and ill some cases that majority was a large one, brit in nu ease did it reach the sixty per cent of the vote. We believe that ninety-nine out of every one hundred temper- anee workers in this province persist in considering that require- ment an neinst one, and claim that a Ijttst law would give sixty- thrco instead of thirty-six. Victor - les to the party of reform. And there is hardiy any doubt that every local option contest tends to fix firmer this conviction in the 1 minds of the people. In only twentyfonr places, so fares reported, did the local op- tioniste fail to secure its 21111011 as is majority in favor of their mea- saro. This is surely a record of which no ono need be ashamed. One of the straight defeats was on a vote to repeal. and this was one of the eases over which the tem- perance people wore especially disappointed. However, it is worth while remembering that the by- law was carried in the first instan- 00 by a very narrow majority, and that the defeat • only meant a change of seven votes, while the six inunicapalities that defeated repeal piled rip their majorities. in favor of local option by over eight hundred votes, This showing strongly supports the contention of the temperance people that where local option is given a fair trial it wins its way with the poop- I le, who having once tried it are very unlikely to revert to the olcl order. Temperance people have learned how to take defeat, for they have had Soule experience along that line. They have learned, too, that very little is to be gained save through persistence and determin- ed courage. They are encouraged by this year's results to move for- ward more aggressively, yet more patiently incl more wisely than ever before. Had results been very much worse than they were they would not have thrown down their weapons, for they are in this „war. fere till their high and holy cause mightily triumphs.

It is hardly conceivable that . the Government will interfere with tho decision of Council to cut oil thirty-four liquor licenses in Torrent•). The Ncws has not con- coaled its opinion that in view of the adverse vote on the reduction by-law two years ago, Council should. not have ordered a reduct- ion without tho concent of the people. On the other hand, it is entirely within the right of Coun- cil to limit the number of licenses and any action by the Government to reverse its action would be nn - wise, improper and dangerous. It is doubtful if popular feeling again- st the liquor business ever was so strong in Ontario as it is to -day, and any attempt to veto the de- cision of Council to limit licenses in Toronto would. rouse this senti- ment against the Administration in Queen's Park, and probably would imperil its candidates in many constituencies. Toronto is not alone in reducing licenses, and there is no more reason to inter- fern with this municipality than their is to revise the action of other communities. Whatever ar- gument may be urged against tate course of the Board of Control and alderman, anct interference by Government with their decision will be arbitrary, improper and politically inexpedient to the last degree.
