MORE LIGHT IN THE CELLER.

Tin: GUARDIAN has endeavored

Dom time to time to throw some light into the dark recesses of the cellar of one John G. Scrimgeour at Cardi- gan, for reasons that have been made auiliciently apparent. But owing to the policy of concealment which has been pursued by those in authority, and the nature ot the case generally, it has not been practicable to give our leaders as full a view of the premises as could be desired. Parliament has

' mrtain powers of exploration and

these have. been recently br ught to hear upon the Scrimgeour cellar. In obedience to an order of the Senate a return of the correspondence has been kid before that House, and of this return, not yet printed, an obliging correspondent at Ottawa, has furnish- ed Tm: Guaaniinv with a synopsis.

From the return in question it ap-

- pears that on the 20th of August 1398 Scrimgeour wrote to some auatoms authority, probably Commis- sioner McDougald, saying that he "is *ngagad in the liquor business solely” and “Ends that a warehouse for baring ' ianeceaaaryat-_this port.’;’f He #bathe has applied for such,pro- ,.ppg°ng to devote one half of his cel- lar for the purpose, but that the Col- bctoqobjedts, as the regulations re-

»,4mraa__who1e flat or the entire cellar.

He asks that his request be granted, :andsayshewiilnt upthe portionof the cellar in a secure manner and under the supervision of a customs &oer.

On the same date, 20th August

lr. George F. Owen writes Mr. Mc- Dougald certifying that he knows Mr. Serimgeour, and that he would boa suitable person to be placed, in conjunction with the Collector of Customs in charge of a bonded ware- house.

On the 25th August, Mr. Mc-

Dougald writes Scrimgeour asking for a sketch of the premises, so :hat the matter maybe further considered. This sketch was sent forward and shows acellar space 14 by 18 feet. lt isiaccompanied by a. letter of Scrim- geour dated September 12, in which he tells Mr. McDougald that any further information will be given by Mr. John McCormack, customs otii- oer, .who is “a master mechanic.”

On October 2-5th, Mr. Bremner of

the customs here reported that he found on examination that the premi- ses corresponded with the sketch above referred to and that he consid- ered the pljace secure and suitable for the purpase intended. On the 6th December 1898, the Commissioner at Ottawa wrote Mr. Currie, the Collec- tor here authorising him to grant Srrimgeour’s application.

Such is the otiicial correspondence

in brief. The essential feature of it is that it establishes the fact before believed but not proved, that the bonded warehouse is for liquor only. We have said hard things about

Scrinigeour, but we must admit that in his application to .the government he was not hypo- critical. His statement that he “is engaged in the liquor business solely" is clear and explict.He ignores in this statement his official duties as Justice of Peace and Fishery Bounty Otlicer. These are mere side shows.His main business is the liquor trade, "for he himself hath said it.”

\Ve regret to say that the corres-

pondence places the government in a very unfavorable light. It was noto- rious that Scrimgeour had been re- peatedly convicted of selling liquor contrary to the Canada Temperance Acr,in Kings County where that Act was and his continued to be in force. \\'ith such credentials Scrimgeour tells the government he is still in the liquor business, exclusively and ne wants ii bonded warehouse to enable him to carry it on more suc- cessfully He wants a place to keep his stock where the Scott Act prose- cutorcfinnot seize it. And the gov- ernment of Canada gives him what he asks!

'lhese are very painful revelations,

and we record them with regret. But inasmuch "as publicity is a prime re- -quisite to the reform of public abuses .l`i-it-1 GUARDIAN will keep this matter before the public from time to timeas ,new facts transpire until the nuisance is abated. And if the bonded ware- house at Cardigan “for the liquor business solely,”is in existence when a general election comes round this jour- nal will not be oblivious of the fact.

Phe prohibition plebiscite did not

cost quite so much money as has been sometimes stated. In reply to Hon. Mr. Foster a few days since. Sir Wilfrid Laurier stated that down to J une 23, last, the entire cost has been $192,541 and $1000 extra would cover all that remains to be paid. But this is a large sum to pay forthe lesson that the minarity and not themajority shall rule in regard to liquor legislatiomf

Pnor. MELVILLE B. Buellurv, '

Instructor Boston Dental College, Boston Mass

In view of the vast amount of injurydoneto the mouths of wear- i

ers of rubber or vulcanite plates, by the retention of undue heat

owning to the non conductibility of rubber, and as alumium is now- so cheaply produced and making as it does a rigid, light, cleanly, unobjectional plate there seems no reason why any person should wear a rubber or vulcanite plate. Not only this, but better results in fit and adhesion are obtained in didlcult cases, than in the use

of rubber. L. P. Hasxnni., D. D. S.

Chicago Ill. Dental School

The abovc quotations are from hundreds by eminent dentists

whose close observation in many years experience in plate work has

learned them the many advantages of metal over rubber. Q

Many persons who are compelled to wear artificial teeth on a

plate find that the ordinary plate causes heating of the mouth, bad taste, shrinkage of the gums, etc , finally causing the plate to get "

loose, sometimes sore lips. sore mouths and sore throats, and caused

directly from the wearing of an ordinary plate.

We recnnaend a llelil Plate ellher of Sold. Plallm, Alulliua. It is a conductor of heat and cold, itis non-irriating, and is thin-

er, lighter, and stonger than any other plate.

We have testimonials from persons for whom we have made

metal plates-not one would wear an ordinary plate again. You can haveyour impression taken, and a metal plate made same day > fulIy‘guaranteed because we make them ourselves, and know all '

about the material used. Call and see speciments of our work. Every piece of work done by us must give entire satisfaction to

the patient, else we will not allow it to leave our oiiice.
