How The Anglican Church
Views Prohibition.
Report Adopted by the Diocese
or Huron.
The following report of the Temper-
ance Committee of the Diocese of
Huron, adopted by the Synod ou .lune
23rd, 1'ttt+: NEwe-ItEcone has been re-
quested to publish to correct wrong
conceptions of the stand taken by the
Anglican church on the temperance
question :--
Your committee is presenting their
annual report to the Synod, desire to
call special attention to the very im-
portant questions now brought before
the Synod.
1. Your committee thankfully acs
knowledge that Canada is one of the
most temperate countries if not the
most temperate country in the world.
They are sure that every true Canadian
desires that it may so remain. Yet
when they face the fact that notwith-
standing all the efforts put forth by the
church in England, and by all agencies
for the promotion of temperance itt the
United Kingdom, the drink bill there
last year (1897) w•ts the tremendous
sum of $750,438,713, the need of work,
vigilance and prayer is apparent.
2. As it is possible that before long
the people of Canada may be called on
to vote either for or against prohibition,
your committee thinks it eminently de-
sirable that the Synod of the Diocese of
Huron should again state its attitude
towards this question. Our position is
this, that the prevention of drunkenness
and of the crime and misery caused by
drunkenness must be a part of the work
which the Lord has committed to the
church. On this side of the great ques•
tion the church must ever be, though
our position has often been misrepre-
sented by those opposed by us, and
sometimes, alas, by those of our own
household.
3, We are of opinion that a regula-
tory law, inking control of the sale of all
intoxicants, would be astep in the right
direction, since it would take from the
sate of liquor the vicious result, inevit-
able under the present law, that ins
creased consumption brings increased
personal gains to the vendor
4. Your committee believe that the
principle of the Gothenberg system has
many commendable features, though the
system itself is susceptible of improve-
ment. The Gothenberg plan was intro-
duced to provide a remedy for the
ravages made on the constitutions of
the citizens of that city by over -indul-
gence in a strong spirit called "Brau-
vin,” and the government of Sweden
consented to allow the sale of this spirit
to be controlled by a company. But
this—control olid not include any restric-
tion on the sale of beer and wines,
which still continued as heretofore.
The effect of the new law was to lessen
the consumption of spirits about fifty
per cent., though the crime of drunken-
ness did not decrease in proportion, be-
cause the beer shops and wine shops
were not included in the company's
system, and no control was exercised
by the government over the sale of beer
and wine.
5. The reform was therefore snecess-
ful in the desired direction : that is,
it lessened the consumption of spirits ;
but to make it of service in Canada
such a law should certainly include the
control of the sale of all intoxicants.
6. The system in Ibis amended form
would offer many advantages undoubt-
edly tending to promote temperance ;
and apart from its regulative effect it
might educate the people to an appre-
ciation of the desirability ot abstaining
altogether from the drinking of strong
spirits or beer, and substituting there-
for wholesome and nutritious beve-
rages.
7. Your committee recommend the
Synod to endorse the principle of a
system which would provide for taking
the control of the sale of liquor entirely
out of the hands of private individuals,
putting it under governmental authority
for proper administration and effective
supervision, and would advance the
following reasons why they make this
recommendation :
Value of Advertising.
Merchants who are inclined to receive
advertising agents coldly should reflect
upon the condition of affairs in Chicago
when the city was without newapapere
for several days owing to the strike of
stereotypers. The Chicago correspon-
dent ot the Montreal Herald says :
" It is hardly creditable that trade
and commerce alone almost came to a
standstill through the non -publication
of the newspapers. The manager of
one of the largest departments of Seigel
& Cooper (departmental store) who im-
ploy no less than 8,000 hands, told me
that their business fell off two-thirds
through being unable to advertise. I
never was cut out for an advertising
agent, but it seems to me that with such
a statement, coming from such an
authority, could fill the columns of
every newspaper in Montreal. The
manager of Frank's boot department,
another immense establishment, de-
clared that their business was out in
half, and it would be a happy day for
him when the newspapers resumed pub-
lication. All kinds of business eon
cerns were affected. Literally, thous-
ands upon thousands of unemployed
walked the streets with white and
haggard faces, praying for the reaps
pearanoe of the papers. People Beeks
ing help were not quite so anxious, but
nevertheless, much annoyed by the
shut -down. In all the surrounding
towns knots of people met thn trains on
their arrival in the evenings asking
anxiously if there was no " bundle of
papers to -night.' "
The Ward System To Go.
Comments on the New Law to be
Put Into Force.
The followiug article is from the Muni-
cipal World and will be road with inter-
est :—The amendments to the Muni-
cipal Aot, passed at last session, eeo
tions 3 and 4 of chapter 23, til, Vic.,
refer to election of township and village
oouuoils. '!'hese sections contain but
few words, and their importance cannot
be understood until sections 72 and 73
of chap. 223, it. 5. O. are referred to
and read with the amendments. Sec-
tion 73 reads as follows :
TOWNIB1r8 AND 1'11.LA(E8,
The council of every township shall
consist of one reeve, who shall be the
head thereof, and four councillors who
shall be elected by a general vote.
And precisely the same words apply
to villages under section 72 :
Every village is to have its reeve, and
the election of its four councillors is to
be by a" general rote "—which means
no wards.
'rowNs.
The council of every town having a
population of not more than 5,000 by
the last Canadian census, shall consist
of a mayor, who shall be the head there-
of and of nix councillors to be elected
by a general vote. 1)1 Vie., chap. 23,
section 2.
The Council of any town having a
population ot more than 5,000, and of
any city having a population of 15,000
or lees, may by a by-law provide that
the council of such a town or city
shall be composed of a mayor and of
one alderman for each 1,000 of popula-
tion, to be elected by general vote ; but
such by-law must be sumtnitted to a
vote of the electors before it can
come into force. 01 Vic., chap. 23,
section 2.
In Peterboro and Chatham the rates
payers have already decided to abolish
the ward system, and other towns and
cities are oonsideringmatter. the This
e
rt
system has been a great bane of munici-
pal government .in the past. '!'here is
no inducement to the ward member to
interest himself in the general affairs of
his municipality. 'the idea of a coun-
cil elected irrespective of ward divisions
is the correct one. It enlarges the con-
stituency of the councillor and calls for
a wider application of his influence.
The Citizen and Country, published
itt Toronto, in a recent issue refers to
this question and states :
Whilst the abolition of the wards is a
large step towards a reasonable and
proper system of voting, yet It is only a
step. '!'hose who earnestly desire real-
ly good municipal government will be
bitterly disappointed if they rely on the
mere abolition of the wards to bring
about that result.
In abolishing wards the Legislature
have taken a wise course, and the result
will be better municipal government.
A further improvement would be to ex-
tend the term for which municipal gov-
ernment. A further improvement
would be to extend the terms for which
municipal councillors are elected, 'Un-
der the present system councillors do
not have an opportunity of becoming
thoroughly acquainted with their duties
as municipal officers, which is necessary
to the proper perl'ormariee of the same
in an economical manner. This could
easily be remedied by election for a term
of years. School trustees are kept in
office for three years, and retire in rota-
tion, the result being that experienced
men always;form the majority. In town-
ships eandvillages'f
st aroeveandonecoun-
P
calor were elected each year,the councils
),ors retire in rotation, experienced men
would always be found at the council
board. Municipal office would then be
accepted by some of our moat capable
citizens who object to the necessity for
annual re-election. A new member
would have men of experience to ad-
vise hire, and an economical manage-
ment of every ilepartment of tho monis
cipal service would be the result.
(a) Such a system would eliminate
the element of private profit from liquor
selling, es the sale would be carried on
by an official whose salary would not be
affected by the amount of Liquor sold.
(b) It would provide for such super-
vision that adulteration of liquor would
'be practically impossible,
(c) It would provide for especial en-
couragement of the sale of all non•.in-
toxicating drinks, as the salaried officer
in charge would receive a commission
in addition to his salary on all such
drinks which might be sold.
id) It would make (lrunkenne es in a
public house an impossibility, if the
salaried officer in charge obeys orders,
as no drunkenness or disorderly cons
duct would be permitted in such estab.
lishments.
(e) It would provide for payment of
the same revenue to the Provincial Ex-,
chequer from Licenses as is now paid
by private individuals.
if) It is proposed to apply the profits
which accrue from the sale of liquor and
non -intoxicating drinks in these estab-
lishments to the reduction of the taxes,
and thus to secure the co-operation of
all taxpayers.
(g) Your committee would strongly
recommend further consideration of the
details of this system, and that the com-
mittee to bo appointed on temperance
be entrusted with full power (a) to
watch legislation in this matter and (b)
when opportunity may arise to urge
upon the government the adoption of
such a system of controlling the liquor
traffic; acting whenever possible with
the committees of other Synods or bod-
ies who may ho willing to further tho
adoption of the same or some similar
plan.

Tot -onto Live Stock Market.
Toronto, Aug. 5.—At the western cat-
tle yards this morning we had a total of
50 loads. Business was in much better
shape than was the case on Tuesday,
and for good cattle prices were firmer,
though scarcely quotably changed, the
added firmness being largely due to an
improvement in the quality of the stuff
offered.
Shipping cattle were in fair demand
at $4 to $4.50 per cwt. and everything
sold. The rather more satisfactory tone
of one cable despatch from Liverpool
had a strenthening effect on our trade.
There was also a better feeling in the
local teade for cattle, and choice stuff
sold from $4 to $4.25 per cwt. For the
best grades prices wet° much firmer,
but there was no improvement for the
poorer grades of cattle. (Good stuff
sold at from $3.50 to $3.80 ; medium
grades at from $3,25 to $3,40 ; and com-
mon stuff dragged at around $3 per cwt.
Ultimately there was a fair demand.
Stockers were slow at from $13 to $3.25
per cwt. There is a steady but by no
means large demand at within,the above
figures.
A few choice shipping bulls are in re-
quest at from $3.40 to $3.75 per cwt,
but for really good specimens 54 will be
paid.
Export sheep sell at from $3 to $3.30
per cwt.
Lambs fetched from $3 to $4 eacli,
and were in better demand and firmer.
The market for small stuff " was to-
day in better shape, owing to a crimpers
atively lighter run, but supplies were
ample for all trade requirements.
Good calves are wanted at from $3 to
$6 each, and $P to 58.50 will be paid for
superfine calves.
Milch cows, feeding, etc., aro practi-
cally unchanged. A few choice milk-
ers will sell, but generally the
enquiry is easy.
]-logs are steady and unchanged. For
the best as high as 56.124 per cwt. is
paid ; light and heavy sell up to 85.50
per cwt.; thick fat hogs are worth from
$4,75' to $5 per cwt.; sows sell up to
$3,50, and stage up to $2.50 per cwt.
All grades are in fair request, but stores
which are not wanted at any price.

prices :—
