The vote on this clause was straight party and Mr. Lucas, our member, voted with the government to sustain the clause. Wo confess surprise at this, knowing as wo do the pressure which was brought to boar on him to make him vote otherwise.

In order to make this high license bring in a big revenue it was necessary to make local option as diflicult to pass as possiblo, and the govcrnmont has doggedly stuck to the piinciplo regardless of oonscqucnoos 10 follow. severely from a bealod ear during the last few days, ia now bettor.
