FOSTER, M. MARKET HALL. An immens- Meeting anda Telling Speech,

Wik.

>

His Loxpsuir Bishor McInryre made a powerful appeal to his congregation in St. Dunstan's Cathedral, on Sunday last, in support of the Canada Temperance Act. He told them that what he was about to say might hurt the feelings of some of his hearers, but they were well aware that when he had a duty to perform with regard to the welfare of his congregation, would perform it, even though it would not be pleasing to all. He then referred to the

election which will take place on Thursday next, for the repeal of the Canada Temper- |

ance Act, and pointed out the benetits | Christianity

|

carried | : ; done asl material presperity of the country.

resulting from the Act in different paris of the Island where it had been properly en- forced. He admitted that the Act, from the manner in which it had been out in Charlottetown, had not

much good as it should have done. for all that he was certain great deal towards

Sut

lessening

it should not be repealed. Because a |

did not do everything that its framers in-|

tended it should do, was no reason why

that law should be done away with

were not observed by all, as the Lord in-| tended they should be. Still he did not) think that any sane man would say, for that reason, they should be repealed. He} contrasted the misery, aud sin, and woe

which were constant dwellers in the abode

of the drunkard and his family, with the, peace and happiness which reigned in the | housebold of the sober, upright man, and | would leave his hearers to judge which was

the beiter law to upiold—tbe law which | made it lawful to mavufacture drunkards, | or the one which made ita crime? He} pictured the drunkard in all his hideousness, | showed what an example he was to hi:

children, and asked was it any wonder that

his sons gyew up ignorant and debauched,

or that his daughters left home as soon as

they were able to earn their livelihood

abroad. The Canada Temperance Act, he | said, had many powerful influences at work against it during the past three years.

Every obstacle was thrown in its way by

the tavern keepers, snd those interested in | the liquor trafic; but in the face of all

this, it had accomplished an immense | amount of good in the community. It will be more beneficial still when these cbstacles are removed, and the Act carried out strictly, as he was sure it would be if sus- tained on Thursday next. He dwelt at some length on the harm that was being done by those who were engaged in selling liquor illicitly, and earnestly entreated every man in the congregation toassist him in carrying on the good work of stamping out liquor selling and liquor drinking ; and he knew of no better way they could do it than by going to the polls on Thursday next and recording their votes in favor of the Canada Temperance Act.

tev. Dr. Firzceratp said this was a time in which those who wieh well to the country should speak end act. There are three par‘ies interested in the settlement of the question now at issue.

The first is the seller of ardent spirits, who wishes to get the sanction of law (which at present he has not) for the carry- 1ug on of his traffic. At present he is a law breaker. He is very anxious to show that the Canada Temperance. Act proved a failure; avd to convince voters that if licenses were given, they would operate beneficially in checking drunk- enness. But Iquer sellers have not heretofore checked the sale of liquors, an! there is no reason to think that they will do so in the future. They have ever, whe-her licensed or vot, been law breakers, giving liquer to minors, Indians, etc., in spite of the law, aud they would do se again.

The next

has

party interested is he who has acquired a taste for ardent spirits, and who wants to get them legally if he can. He, too, is loud in his assertions that the Scott Act has proved « failure

The third and last party is the great bulk of the people—the fathers and mothers of famities—those wh.» have suffered by th traffic in ardeut spirits. What, my friends, is your opinion? What is your wish? 1 it better tor you—for the whole community, including the rumsellers and drunkards themselves—that the Scott Act should be repealed, avd an open dvor given for th

sale of liquor on every’ hand! Are all the tamilies in this community willing io open the door and

facilties for d:unkenness! Are they pre pared t= be the abettors of theft and crime of all kinds which are the necessary ont com) of drinking habits? Are they desiv- ous vf seeing their children subjected to the terrible temptotions, and the terribl» evils which sprmg from the liquor traffic and heensed taverns, You may say “I do net wish to be held responsible for ai! that.” Then if you do not wish to be re: ponusible, be no party to the licensing of the hquor treflic, and vote for the Scott Aci4 the best yore hibtiory law we wotld have— and tay God heip and strenghten you in the c of truth and righteousness cord jour vote on that side which will ure God's blessing and the welfare cf

inv. J. Burwasna, of Prince Street Methodist Church, spceke very forcibly on he question at s 2. 2. @ Righteousness in its widest sense we take to be Chrisiianity in ‘the example, precept, and practical Chris- tian work of godly people. This is the intended by God to elevate the human race, morally, intellectually, physi- cally. Opposed to this is the power of evil. | Christianity proceede with iis work :— Ist.

their charge. It has been the enemy of

| knowledge by cutting short the career of

some of the most gifted workers in science, art and literature. This sin is a reproach. To whom!

1. At present, to those who wiil sell in spite of the law.

2, To those who aid and abet vhem by obstructing the working of the law.

3. To these who endeavor by constant faultfinding to bring the law into die- credit, and thus countenance its violation.

4. To those who do not actively assist in enforcing the law. An effort is being made to bring us, as a community, under the reproach of having on the Statute Book a sanction of this nefarious traffic. Vice, evil-doing,—according to Lord Chesterfield, and every common sense right thinking man— should not be sanctioned or licensed, but prohibited.

Rev. Epwarp Wuitman, of the Baptist Church, Prince Street, opened his address by saying that intemperance as an evil has been too often discussed—-is too generally admitted—to demand more than a pussing notice. The evil still exists—blighting everything it tuuches—a source of sorrow and of woe. How to get rid of this destructive force has been and is the burn- ing question. Two answers have been given :—

Ist. Try moral suasion. Bring the prin- ciples and inducements of morality to bear on the victim ot the intoxicating habit. This has been done, and has succeeded in a few instances. But a reformed drunkard stands a poor chance while the tempt«tions of the tavern beset him. Bring the prin- ciples and inducements of morality to bear on the conscience of the tavern keeper, and persuade him to abandon the business. You might as well apply the principles of morality tothe ears of a hungry hog, to induce him to leave the trough with its bucket full of slops!

2nd. Try legal suasion. This was tried, beginning low down in the scale. At length the license has come into force. This gave to certain men the right for a consideration—the legal right to seil in- toxicants—cause drunkeness and iis aitend- aptevils. An evil thing forbidden by the laws of God, was legalized by the action of men. Christianity could not endure this, aud so ai length a higher legal enaciment was attained,—the Canada Temperance Act. As might have been expected, this law was tramelled with legal difficulties, which greatly hindred its influences, besides its enforcing machinery was very incomplete. It became the law of this zity and ccunty. {t has not fully realized our expectations Why not! Because it has not been put into foree. Had there been anything like a united and determined effort put forth on the partof our authorities and eur Uhris-

But lt has

would have been greatly diminished, the Scott Act has done somethiag,

closed up some of the saloons, It has seri- ously inteifered with the business of others. It has stripped the traffic of every vestige of legal respectability, and has made it stand forth i» all its hideous ngliness. If liqaor has been sueld in large qnantities it lias been dove in violation of law. If the effeets of the tretlic has been painfully ap- parent in our streets, it has not had our

legal protest. To-day we are standing on the highest platform ever occupied }y the Temperance party of this country. Never was moral sussion more effective—never was legal might more cffective; and all that remains for us is to hold en te those forces avd perfect them for still more effective service.

But we are told thatthe Scott Act is a failurce—that it ought to be repealed—and an election has been asked for and granted to have it repealed. Who says the Sco't Act is afailure? The fellows who origin- ated the petition. Who originated the petition? The liquor dealers and_ their custumers, without a doubt. The clergy-

tian citizens, the evil of the liquor traftic |

f . . ance. Here are the parties in l«t!le array —

the illicit rum-sellers and their customers against the Churcher, the Temperance Societies, the Bible, and God. Ona the 16th cay of this month it will be proved to a demonstration whether the low, lurking, (ram-selling drunkard producing elements

in the minority. If the Scott Act is sus- tained, as I believe it will be by an over- whelming majority, it will be to our honor, but if through the indifference of many, the Scott should be repealed, it will be not dishonor, but disgrace.

Tue Rev J. Nicnoirs,of Montreal ,cftici- a'ed in St James’ church, oa Sabbath last. After the sermon, he 1ead the resolution of the Alliance, requesting the clergymen of ie city, to make an appeal on behalf ef the Scott Act. He then spoke as foilows:—All tat is necessary for me to say on this sub- ject, may be stated in afew words. Every christian is bound, by apostolic injunction, to ‘abstain from all appearance of evil.” On this passage, 1 base the duty of total ebstainence, not only from all things con- iossedly evil in themselves, but also, from all things which are evil in appearance only. Now, all thoughtful men, and all the best members of society, pronounce the liquor traffic to be evil in appearance, evil in itself—and tremend- ously evil in in its results. Grant tnis, and you have no discretion in the matter. You are hound by all the authority of a Divine mandate, not only to leave the evil un touched, bret to vigoronsly vote it down The mandate is enough for all Christiaus. You profees to be Christians, and, | am confident that next Thursday will find you ranged upon the right side. The Bible is against the traffic, and you will obey the Lible.

Tue Rev. G. W. Hopeson, began by saying that, in his opinion, it is the duty of every elector to vote. How he should vote was a question which each one should de- cide for himself. We must, however, carefully remember, that we cannot repeal tae present law without licensing taverns,

iloons, ete. All our experience shews that 1s is chiefiy in taverns and saloons that coruukards are made. Probably there was vot one present who had not directly or adirectly, suffered from the licensed tavern. Who has not had a father, brother, son, or come other near and dear relative, a victim to the vice of intemperance coutracted in taverns.

Who is now asking that the liquor traffic may again be legalized! Mothers, are you? ~hould you like to see your sons frequenters of respectable drinking houses? Fatheis are you! Would you take your sons to spend their evenings in respectable bquor shops? Young men are you! Would it make your chances of o! taining a situation any better? Would your employers have more confidence in you if it Were known that you frequent the licensed tavern? But it is said the present law has, to some extent, failed. 1 believe that statements as to the failure of the law have been greatly exsggerated. But suppose these statements are true, what is the wise course to pursue? If you saw a man grappling with a wild heast—with a ficm hold upon the beast’s throat—the beast wounded, but not fully subdued, and still making a des- verate struggle—-would you say ‘‘let go your hold.” No. You would say, ‘‘hold aim tight, and do not flinch, you will over- come him by and bye.” And this should be your course of action, with respect to the liquor trattic. You should keep the hold hat you now have upon the throat of the iiquor traffic. The very struggle that it is making, the cries that it is uttering, proves chat it feels that grasp—do not let 4o—hold on till - you” strangle it.

Most of those who say that the Act has ailed admit that the principles of prohi- bition are good. Well, you will assist in ‘winging into force a prohibitory law by voting against the petition. Ii you do this, the law breakers, not you, will con- inue to be the ones responsible for its violation. Should you not much rather be in this position than in the position of one who had taken upon himeeif the terrible esponsibility of sanctioning the licensing of taverns—in order that law breakers shall not have a law to break? Weigh the natter well. You are responsible before God for your vote. Ask him to guide you. Consider what is best for the highest inter- esis of yourself and your children, and the safety and welfare of the community, and I believe you wil! mark your bailots iainst the petition. Women, you cannot vote, but you can—and I trust will—pray that God will make the right to prosper on Thursday next.

Rev. 8. H. Rice, of Upper Prince Street Church, delivered a temperance sermon before a large congregation, from the text, **Abhor that which is evil” ; and closed with an exhortation to the voters present tc cast in their ballots to sustain the Scott Act.

Mr. Foster, M. P., last evening ad- dressed one of the largest and best audiences ever assembled in Market Hail; and it is good proof of his power as an orator that he held the attention of his hearers for

He argued that elec-

well nigh two hours, _ tors should be governed by right principles |-—not by the meastre of success which at ‘first attended the. working out of right principies. By paticut and persevering etfort those who act on right principles will assuiedly triumph in the end.

priveiple ef prohibition is being asserted and cstablished all over the Anglo-Saxon world. Within the past three or four years it has made wondeiful progress in Greai Gritain, in the Uvpited States, end in

Canada. In 1885 it was endorsed by a majority of *7 in the British House of Commons. Tre people of the State of

Kansas, Lowa, Ohio, and other | States, are working it out, The sentiment of the Anglo-Saxcen people is everywhere in its favor, And the voters of Charlotte- town will not go back on their judg- ment of three years ago, but will stand by the prohibitory principle contained in the Seott Act. , Charlottetown is the keystone of the pro- vince, which, from end to end, has adopted the Catala Temperance Act; and if , Char'otretown, legahzes the liquor traflic, the Counties will necessarily be affected.

O

rest of the Islind.

It is sail that drunkenness cannot be put down by law; moral suasion should be used. Who says this?—the liquor dealers avd those who are not susceptible of moral

suasion ! Asa matter of fact, all temper-

that they cannot vote independently of the lance workers use *moral suasion, though

they do not prate about it. But they need also the aid of — the law. Laws are made against tramps,

burglars and highwaymen; why not sgainst rum-sellers, who are more harmful and dan- gerous to the community than either of the others. ae

Some object to piecemeal legislation and want prohibition right cff; others object to the Canada Temperance Act, be- ca‘ise it makes drinking places disreputable. The sincerity of the first is to be doubted ; and as for the second, the best answer to them is, ‘the more disreputable drinking places are made the better.” There are, however, in Toronto, where they have the license system, 1,000 unlicensed and dis- reputable taverns, and there are. many disreputable taverns in St. John and Halifax.

The Scott Act has been hampered bj Coustitutional questions, and where it has not been successful, the fault is largely due to those who work it, A farmer would uot condemn his machine simply because the team would not draw it. Neither should the Scott Act be blamed because the officers of the law, have not always e:- forced it.

‘These facts should be borne in mind :— (1) Iu adopting a license system the first thing you do is to compromise with an evil. If the electors deliberately give their sanc- tion to the evil (for the sake of fees or anything else), it will be the more likely to run riot. (2) The liquor interest is badly in want of respecia- bility; (3) when you license the liquor treftic you sanction it; (4) when you license the liquor troffic you become responsible for what it does.

ee LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

A Protest.

Sir,—As a temperance man I pratest against my brethcen in the noble cause voting for the petition in the coming election. We cannot be in a better posi- tion than we are in now. We can and do get all the rum, whi-key, brandy and ale which we require, whilst, on the other hand, if the Scott Act be repealed, we can- not be in a better position; but, on the contrary, we will be unable to stop our neighbor er brother templar from getting it, as we can now. We can now say to the rumseller ‘‘thon shalt gaot sell,” but should the act be repealed, @e will sell in spite of us, the difference being that now he sells on our sufferance, then he will geil and be d d to us. Therefore I call on lovers of Temperance, who have true and faithful Temperance princip!es at heart, aud »ho desire to louk well before the eyes of the world, to come forward early, and if need be, often, on Thursday, and vote against the petition got up by those liquor dealers.

Yours in haste, ONE OF THE RUSSIANS.

Let Us Be Careful.

Siz,—It is cause for humiliation that, after all the years of christian training, so many can be found who fail to see that it is wrong to license a man to sell rum. To me it is as clear as sunlight. And if it is wrong, that is final. I cannot be a party to anything that is wrong. The questtn is not, ** Is the Scott Act more effective than a License Law?’ If 1 were sure that it is not, yet nothing would lead me to vote for licensing. Itis a rotten basis, and upon it you can build nothing strong.

If miserable creatures wil! defy the law of the land, and other miserable creatures will aid them in it—if they say, as they do, ‘© We will sell rum and do your worst,” then Jet us bear it as meekly as we can until the mora] sentiment is aroused, but do not let us admit that they have beaten us ; do not let them insult us by offering us money that for so mueh they may do their devilish work in peace. Let us be careful that in the conflict of the ages between good and evil we are not siding with the devil,

To the Taxpayers of the City of Charlotte- town:

GENTLEMEN, — By voting for the Petition on Election Day, 16.h inst., you wil have your taxes reduced ou Real Estate one- fourth, as the amount of taxes levied on Real Estate is $26,060 ; amount which can be collected from licenses, $6,500; thus showing a loss in tiiree years of $19,000. What folly for the citizens to lose such a large sum, when, by a repeal of the Scott Act, the city might be enriched with the money thus lost, and the sale of liquors regulated and restricted. There are larger importations of liquor at present than be- fore the adoption of the Scott Act; there- fore the sales must of recessity be larger, and the loss to the cily »evenue cons: quently apparent.

Yours truly, Anti Scorr Act.
