Thus the independent manufacturer, like the intelligent arti san, laborer, farmer, is everywhere sup. porting the policy of trade freedom, economy and progress. The steady progress of the country for many years to come will be guaranteed byachange in men and methods at Ottawa. The people desire that not a cent shall be collected in taxation that is not needed for the economical government of the country ; they desire that honest and not peculating administrators shall hold sway; and they demand that every man shall have a right to make the moat of his earnings without payment of tribute to the millionaires who have managed to get temporary control of the rulers of the country.

The remainder of the report is taken up in discussing at length the laws re- lating to the 1squor trtulie, and describ. ing the different' methods and, workings of prohibitury laws. He finde on all counts in favor of the contentions of the most ardent prohibitionists, con- demning the lieenseusystem, theGothen. burg plan, and asserting that the pub- lie sentiment of Canada is prepared to support and enforce a prohibitory liquor; law. In " deliverance Dr. McLeod tirut devotes attention to the existing conditions. He declares that nowhere has there been found a license system that really regulates the liquor trtufio, that the restrictive features of the license laws have not produced the re- ha claimed for them, and that license laws do not reduce the volume of the liquor ttaffie. He cppOses high license as a remedy for the existing evils, and declares that high license laws do not reduce the volume of the liquor tndfie. He opposes high license as a remedy for the existing evils, and declares that high license has made the saloons more important, more attractive, and more dangerous. Moreover, in his opinion, high license has created a sentiment in favor of the saloon as aaource of public revenue. It has had a bed effect upon the moral sense of the community, and has aided in corrupting 'tus public coo. scn-nce. Another charge against the high license plan is that it has increased the iniiuenoe of the liquor traffic, and given it a maximum of power. On these aspects of the case Dr. McLeOd's conclusion is that as a remedy or even a check on the evils of the liquor traffie license laws of every kind have been a stupendous failure. mt 00111anan PLAN. ‘The result of his enquiries into the Gothenburg plan are equally unfavor- able. Although designed originally to increase the drink traffic, it has, says Dr. McLeod, degenerated into a system to satisfy the greed of shareholders. It appeals to the cupidity of shareholders, and that large class of the community that see in the revenue derived from l the tratiic relief from taxation. "Wu. ada," continues the doctor, “has noth. ing to gain by the adoption of the Goth- enburg system. and has nothing to learn from it, except that no system of license under whatever name called or con- ducted under whatever auspices, inter. 1 fares permanently with the liquor tmtfio or diminishes its inevitable-evils.” am. cerning the advocacy of light liquors, the doctor concludes that the use of wine is not a habit to be encouraged with a view to_overcoming alcoholism, and its train of vices, and he adds that all the facts show that it is too late in the day to cite the experience of Ger- [ many and France as justifying the en- I couragement of beer and wine.

Scott remained over in the Northwest on business, but is expected home this week. The party had a very pleasant and thoroughly enjoyable trip and'were more, than delighted with it. They were a little over a month in Australia. spending most of the time in Victoria and New South Wales. They sped of the country as being very fine, but not any improvement on our own Ontario. The people are hospitable and liberal and spend money more freely than Canadians, although they are now feeling very much the efbeta of the hard times. They no in greatly tor pleasure, are very fond ot sports, having more time to devote to these things than Canadians, their working day only being eight hours. The pres. pests toroade between the two coun- tries is very promising in some lines, bat in others the outlook is not so bright. The manufacturing industries ot the Australian colonies are yet very limited and for some time to come they will have to depend on other countries for their supply.
