The ext-mayor told us he we: abrewer because at the time he embarked in the business he had nothing else to do; that he had hitherto been a Re- furmer and thought no much of the Globe that he cauld nntgoto bed without reading it. But (if l'nte he had found out that the Globe had hem throwing dust in his eyes, and that thinfiwtt Act excitement. was raised Mp‘poeition to Sir John. Iu striv- im: thus to upeec the Dominion Gov- ernment, they were ruining his (Bow- ie’s) business, and consequently he had turned his back on that paper audits supporters. Itil pus-ithe Mr. Bowie was trying to throw duet into the eyes of his audience, as he must luwe been aware that he was speaking to a Conservative audience. Mr. ‘Lee's remarks were broken, lacking both energy and pith of argument. For about one hour. Mr. Jamieson, in hie gomthumon-d and clevvr atylet addressed the meeting, denying most positively the inainuulion thrown out by the eat-mayor as to the political churneter of the Scott, Act. agitation. He earnestly urged upun all prenem to cmne out in support ofthe Act. and lhus cause this county to send an- other voiee to parliament for prohi- bition.

It. is Hitlmwd on the banks of Fa“ River and at preeent contains the following business places, besides quite a num- ber ut'private residences :--2 stun-ea, 1 hotel, 4 blacksmith shops, 2 carriage Slurps, l grist. mill, new Ba“! and shingle mill, 1 carding mi!l,1 grggery, Phone: (SW) 686-1970 After Huurs: 657-0390 People are being gravely ulnred by Anti-Scott Act oracles and now:- {up re that if the Dominion Licen aw, recently declared by the Sn- pt'emt- Court to be in the greater part ultra circa, cannot stand, then the Scott Act must fail as well, become it stands on precisely the same foot- ing. The logic of such of the nrgu‘ manta in this direction at we'hat'e had opportunity to examine will not hear clone criticism. The arguments proceed from false promises and naturally reach false conclusions; but that is about the case with all the m-gumo‘i’ite used by the Antie. There are three good reasons why temper- ance people should not allow their efinrts on behalf of the Scott Act to relax because at this new cry that has been gotten up. obviously to frighten them, and they are these: First, the deci~iou given is not con. clusive as to the oonstitutionnlity of the license low; second, the eonetim. ‘tionelity of the Scott Act hes been establi‘hed beyond all possible que- tiun by the highest court in the Btiti~h Empire. and it is law an it stands until repealed or emenfled by the Parliament of Canada; third, the constitutionality of the Scott Actil atfirmed in the judgmcnt shout which the Antis are making so much fuse, the Concluding sentence of which dis- tinctly declares so much of the license not as relates to “the carrying into t-fi'c-tet of the Canada Temperance Act. 1878 " to be quite constitutional. In the effort to frighten the friende of the Scott Act into inactivity the Antit drop this dentencc out at night. but it will not stay out of sight but file! up. in judgment agiinet them at every turn they make Io extract caution for themselves or courage for their follow- ers from the ruling of tho comm-â€" dasket.
