THELIQUOR REGULATION LAW.

Weundersiand that the contention of

the licensed-liqauor dealers in Charlotte- towathat when the Farquharson Gov-

ernment decided to impose a tax upon

them it also arranged to change the S

hours of opening and closing tbeir places

ot businese, is well founded. Their second

claim that, besides being legalized in their

co | business, they were conceded greater priv-

ileges than they before erjoyed, appear to be equally clear and unquertionable.

The public is aware that in the year 1892 the Leyislsture of this province pass- ed a sta’ ute to regulate the sal> of liquor in the city of Charlottetown. 3The 8th section of that Act fixed the hours for optning and closing the tavernas, and was in the following words :

8. No sale of liquor shal] be made io said cily tc any person from oraftter tbe hour of six o’clock on Saturday afternoon, ull seven o’clock on Monday morning thereafter, nor shall.a:y sale be made on other days ot the week from ten o’clock at pight unul seven o’clock in the forenoon of the next day; unor shall apy room or place where liquor is eold be kept open or anything sold or supplied therein between said hours.

This law only permitted the sale of liquor on week days (except Saturdaye) between the hours of seven o’clock in the morning aad ten o'clock at night; and as regards Saturdoye, vnly eiween the houreof seven o’clock a, m. and six o’clock p. m.

But in the year 1899 the Farqubareon Government concluded to impoee a license fee on all jiquor eellers in Charlottetown and decided to change the hours for selling the liquor, and to accomplish this the F'ar- qubarson majority passed an amendment to the Regulation Act of 1892, absolutely repealing the 8 h section, quoted above, and substituting the following section ia its

place, tbat is to say :

2. Section eight of said statute is hereby repealed, and the following section eubsti- tuted therefor :

“8. No sale of liquorsball take place in said city to any person from or after the bour of #:x o’clock on Saturday after- noon,till eight «’clock on Monday morning thereafter, nor shall any sale be made on Tuesday or Friday or other public market day from or after the hour of seven o’clock in the afteraoon till eight o’clock in the morning of the following day, nor shall any room or place where liquor is sold be kept open or anything sold therein between such hours; porsball any such sale be made or any room or apsrtment for the sale of liquor be kept open on any day appoioted for acivic or provincial elec- tion, or any Provincial or Dominion holi- day.”

Immediately upon this amendment be- ing assented to by the Lieutenant Gover- nor, the 8th section of the law cf 1892 ceased and this new section took its place.

The most ordinary reader cannot fail to observe what a sweeping change was made For instance, tske a Monday: under the law of 1892 the liquor dealer waa required to close his shop at 10 o’clock at night ; under the new law he can keep open as late on Monday night as he chooser. Cao a Toesday, underthe old law, he could not open his shop before seven o’clock in | the morning; but under the new Jaw he can open as early on that day as he pleases, In short he cana open his shop | en a Monday morning at eight o’clock and keep it open witheut intermission until seven o'clock on a Tuesday evening. Under the law of 1892 the liquor dealer was compelled to close his shop on Wed- nesdays and Thursdays at ten o’clock at night, aed not open again until seven on the following morning. But by the new law these restrictions were removed and he

can now keep open as late on the nights of these days as he pleases and open again as early on the following morning ae he finds itconvenient. From Wednesday

morning at eight o’clock until Friday

evening at seven o'clock without interrup tion the taverns can be kept running and the liquors sold.

Tue Examiner on Wednesday |aat, pointed out that it was rumored that there extraordinary concessions had been grant- ed by the Farqubarsoa Governmeat to the

liquor dealers, and asked for an expljana-

tions The rumor on the streets appears to have been well founded. But no ex- planation has been offered. Can any be given? The public will await one,

OUR CITY SCHOOLS.

One of the sweetest things in life is rest

that the our schools will greatly enjoy the holidays.

after labor; and we feel sure

teachers and the echolars of city Good work has evidently been done on the part of both. One of the improve ments tbat we should gladly see more maiked than it is, is connected with the behaviour of the pupils. Some of the pupils in some of the rooms, seem to have no idea of gentleness and courtesy ; and altogether there is evidently room for an advance in this regard: It is time that Canadians at large emerged from the‘‘ raw, rough and democratic ” stage of development, and and cultivated manners consistent with their educations] advantages and acquire- ments, We lope, too, that Mr. H. James importance and necessity of strict atten- tion to literary composition will be borne in micd. The advaptages of education are stripped of half their value when thoee who possess them are doorish in behaviour and unable to speak and write in a correct and pleasing manner,

The national flags and emblems that adorned the walls of'many of the echoo; rooms yesterdey, and the patriotic songs that were sung, would have delighted the heart of Ex-Governor Fowlan if he had been present. In thie regard there has been a decided and very gratifying im- provemeat,—resulting partially, perhaps, ftom Mr. Howlan’s addresses in former years, and for the most part from the Natioral spirit aroused by the occurrences vfthe Boer war. Perhap3 the patriotic

emblems would not have been» so general or marked, if the scholars had been maseed in large halis,—of which the need was felt and remarked.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

— The drought in the Northwast has been broken by heavy rain,—saviog the crops.

—The public debt of this Province is now mounting up towards the $600,000.00 mark,-—under a government which ob- tained power by the promise (o make ends meet !

—It is suggestod that the electors who may Continue to support the Pineau- Farqunarson Admiaistration ehall be called the “ ill-Liberale.” Certainly no true Liberal can do so !

—The Sinking Fund to meet the debt heaped up by our Liberal Government is fictitious and suppositious,—it is suppored to be on call in the banks, though the Provincial Governmeant’s account at the banks is largely overdrawn!

—The expenditure of our Liberal Dominion Government next year will be $56,3'2,527.00. Contrast this amount with the $38,000,000 which Sir Wiifrid,

Sir Richard, Sir Louis, etc., used to de- nounce a8 80 extravagant that the Tories ought to be put out and they put in !

—Parliament has been in session —if we mistake not—for abcut five months ; aud the government ie only now bringing down its important measures On Wed- nesday Jaet the Postmaster Genera] sub- mitted a bill to settle and prevent trade disputes and provide for the publication of statietical and industrial information. Hon. members, tired of Ottawa, are ex- claiming agains: the government’s eapen~ sive tardiness.

STREET IMPROVEMENT.

Sir,—Ip your issue of the 26th “Im provement hits the nail pretty well on the head. I bave noticed that the water cart never seems to get to any other part of the town but Queen Street and around the ‘quare. While those of us who are not for unate enougu to!eon this particuler pait of thecity (but who pay just as much axes as they wh: are) have to suffe from dust aod dirty etreete Now if we had “as ‘Improvement’ says a good steam roller and sweeper, our streets could be kept clean and in first» class condition at less expense than is now puton them. One or two good sprirk- lings would Jay the dust, and the water cart could then get around to some of { the other parts of the city With ourclay | soil a good roller of 12 or 15 tons weight would make cur streete as solid and firm asarock, aud being smooth and level could be very easily swept. Take for in- stance the new Park roadway, which i3 a eplendid, hard piece of road, and was made so with a four ton roller. If alight roller will do such good work, we could by the use Of a heavy one keep our streets (with the excepiion of those on which the heavy hauling is done) in such a condition that there would never be any need of macad- amizing them, and it would be a pleasure to go foradrive round the city. But as it ig at preseni, there are only about three Streets fit to drive on with any degree of comfort. If enough modern road-making and cleaning machines can be bougbt for what “Improvement” says, $5,000, I for one say by all means let ‘ne have them. The cost isamere trifle, At 34 per ceut it only amounts to $175 8 year, not any more than 16 paid each week for wages for which it is hard to see that we get any value. I hope therefore that our City Council will at their next meei- ing decide ‘to purchase theese up«to-date machineg,aod ehow that they are,not only io their talk, but ia their action,as w }), PROGRESSIVE.
