list. The principle is abhorrent to ms. But there has been for the last twenty years or more a senti- ment in this Province that we should have prohibition. and so we have had it. that kind that did not prohibit. The late Conservative Gcnernment told the peopiu candid- ly: ' You have ‘been crying for pro- hibition in this Province: now we ‘are giving it to you——resi Prohibi- lion—and it is for you lo say whe- ther you lilre it or not.” I believe in giving the people what they ask for (my hon. friends gave the peo- ple what they didn't ask for) and _we told the people: “Give this law a good test, and when if has been tested we will ‘give you an op- portunity to say whether you wish to continue it or whether you do _or not." The majority of the peo- ple have certainly a right lo pro- hibition, if they really wan! It. But a great many people believed _in prohibition for the other fellow ;——noz for themselves. The Pro bibltion law in this Province today is as nearly perfect as you can have it. The. only question is, has i1 the moral support of the people’! ll is an exceedingly dif~ ficult iliing lo enforce a law fhul. has not got this moral support. As _to whether it has this moral sup port, in this Province,l am no! pre- pared to say. That can only be ascertained by giving the people the right to pronounce on it. You ‘can enforce prohibition to the last degree in a community where the

people do not want liquor in any

shape or form. But there are many villages in this province quickly _run n boot-legger out of the dis- lrici-yet some of these indignant hesitation _in going into town and obtaining liquor if they could get it. They say: “We don't want liquor peddl- ed in our vicinity. But we want ‘to know that we can get it. legiti- mately when we do want it."

We have a liquor law on the sta- tute books of tihis province, and it is the duty of every citizen, while that law remains there i0 obey it. I am not taking sides one way or the other in the molten. I am simply contending that the law should be obeyed to the letter and that the people at the earliest op- portunity should have the rigiht of pronouncing their opinion on it. after they have seen the result of its strict enfocement. It was necessary for us to pass the law first, in order to give the people this opportunity of judging it. Pre- vious to this law people could have no idea of prohibition. for we Icnow that nearly every dug-store was a place where liquor was sold and sold in large quantities.

MR. IJEPAGE: Some of them are selling it yet.

MR. ARSl-lNAUi.'l‘~—~'l‘bat is pos- sible. But not nearly as many. Ninety per cent of the drug stores in this Province today sell absolute- iy no liquor. l believe the per- centage is even higher than that. l am sure that the drug stores handling liquor today are very few indeed if there» are any. ' The hon. member for Rustico referred in his speech to some newspaper comment about certain firms who had members in ‘this house receiving Government mon- ey. I think my hon. friends have laid themselves open to criticism In this matter. though we have charged nobody with oils-doing. it may lie by pure accident that so many firms in which honourable members are interested appear in the Public Accounts as receiving government patronage. At any rnte, I am not charging those firms willh not giving value for Govern- ment money received: but I do sny, that so far ns they are concerned, there is no need for members to make such a fuss and laud and eirtoll the Government about the very businesslike way in which they have conducted public affairs Iii regard to tliesecontrscts. There is ino cause for boasting, however for we know that my hon. friends are human and are quite ready to

pick Government plums in the shape of Government patronage and Government contracts. Let

them cease this “holler than thou" attitude. \

The late Government in past years was severely taken to task by my hon. friends because we were expending the sum of half a

for that reason were called estra- vagaut. Lei. me point out the large amount of money which this Government will expend in the coming year-well over a million dollars. If they were justified In charging us with extravagance, we are certainly justifled In much stronger terms in " Ing the policy of my hon. friends. I would say it is a riot of expen- diture! And certainly our friends are not modsst—although the leader of the Government claimed that he had a "modest little sur- plus." The Budget. at least, can- not lay claim to the some distinc- tion, because if anything it is ra- ther immodest in its size. The Government by increased taxes has largely increased the revenues of the Province. and it is apparent
