It is an event pregnant with momentous interest to every one liv- ing within the lmunds of the counties named, and one in which way elecm tor must individually bear a certain amount oflaponsibility for the suc- cast-1 or (16501 From our standpoint, we believe that the Scott Act is designed and promoted for the especial purpose of benefitting the county. and is calculu- ted to bring about good results to all living under its provisions, and that it will not work injury to any one. I "III unv- uvâ€"â€" _-.‘, , A large amount of discussion has taken place, yet. so for as we can learn, no one has yet been found so blind to the public interest as to, for one moment, argue that the sale of intoxicating liquors is a desirable business to be continued. Opponents of the Act have studiously avoided the direct point as to whether the business; is a curse sum 3 crime, and have sought to divert attention from the ‘reul issue by vague allusions to the barley and hop questions. vested rights, compensation, person:le rights. loss of revenue, and other l'nllarcious issues. These are cries raised to con- fuse the electors, and are prmuptml ‘uy the selfish desires of ut'ew to make money and on easy living. regardless of the misery and extension of crime which their triumph on the 18th would involve. I'Vu.\- a-avv-~'. But even on these side issues the opponents have been mercilessly routed, and their figures and asser- tions completely refund and dis. proved. So completely, that since the memorable mat of their chief champion nth-a. little hamlet a. {’w miles from Brockville, they have abandoned their appeals from the platform. and now stop quietly around under cOVer of the shades of night, dealing out tracts and documents which they dare not submit to noon- ‘(lay scrutiny. We believe that every social, moral, and monetary consideration .of the cmnmlmity is directly opposed to the continuation ot the quuo’r traffic. We believe that this is admitted 3 all, excepting those few who wish to make money out of the business, and are, therefore. anxious to have the drinking usages continued. We believe” that the Scott Act is the best available means to shut up these fountains of crime and iniquity scattered all over the country, and if curried'und enforced, that it will prove effectual iu hastening a. total prohib- itory law for the whole Dominion. In the ,menntimo it will greatly re- duce the quantity of liquor sold. and put an end to the treating system and , --_. -n..-.. open bars 'now exxsting at every cross- ruml and four corners”: TH E scarf .4 01'. ‘0!" the Act. V‘Vedneuday. Decennber 1'7, 1884. IN VERY POOR CONDITION We believe that over person. whether elector or not. w 10 opposes the Act. or refuses or neglects to cast his ballot in its favor. will be held re- sponsible. in event of its defeat, for the dire efieots produced by a. con- tinuanoe of the evil. Iolmvv v- y“â€" We believe thet those who vote for, or assist in any we) the passage of the Act, will have nothing to reproach themselves with, and can rest assured that, let the ultimate result be what it may, the have done all in their power to laconntcuance and discredit this pernicious business. Should the Act he adopted, they can have the proud satisfaction of knowing and feeling that they have been instru- mental in saving some friend or rule.- ; tive from want and suffering. We believe, aye, and know, that to many this will be their last opportun- ity of casting a. ballot on this or any othef question. and we ask them to calmly consider their duty to those who succeed them, and the privilege they will enjoy on the 18th of so mark ing their ballots that they may be ranged on the side of humanity, nght, and moral progresp. ‘ AA“ A‘ Finally, we ask every elector to carefully and calmly weigh this mat- ter, divesting himself of every false and mercenary considerationâ€"to look‘ at this question fairly and honestly" and then ask himself the question, “ Shall I, by my vote perpetuate and continue this evil, which has ruined more homes, made more families wretched, and brought more degrada- tion and misery upon more peo J18 than all other evils combined ‘2" Ve hope and trust that the answer will be an emphatic No! and that on the morning of the 18th, you will hasten to the pulling place and record you vote has "pus-{ed awny.
