oonietaniately “Temperance in Kings County.”
Sirn,—Under the above heading, and in your weekly issue of July 27th, I noticed a communication from Montague regarding the status of temperance in King’s County; and was greatly surprised to find so many glaring inconsistencies, inaccuracies and base insinua- tions ‘bolstered up” by the sacred name of “Truth.” Itis evident to the most unob- serving, that your correspondent, a ‘‘ notoriety seeker,’ should have depended more upon facts than the ‘‘ absurd and empty vaporings ” of his pessimistic imagination. dissatisfaction with the effurts put forth by the temperance people must bave caused him many & heart ache, but it never caused him to give any pecuniary assistance or gratuitous advice, but rather to stand afar off from the scene, and with a readiness and a zeal which is truly commendable (were it exerted ina better cause) he is ever ready to champion the reverse of the temperance party.
In speaking of temperance sympathy for tLe rumsellers, he evidently mistook his own inclinations for those of the real temperance party; for since the adoption of the Scott Act he has shown his sympathy for the rumselling fraternity by never assisting in their prosecu- tiou, and seeking every occasion to belittle the efforts directed against their inte: ests.
‘Then the temperance lodges come in for a full share of his harmless vituperation, but from latest intelligence it is expected they will survive the effects of his scathing denun- ciations. practical work done through these societies he has displayed more igno:ance and malevolence than might reasonably be expected from the most uninitiated. Is he not aware that when the temperance people of Montague needed
readily and willingly than ‘that branch of the 1. O. G. T. styled Fidelity Lodge ?”
His allusion to the different concerts, enter- tainments, etc., will net go for much ip this enlightened age. We hope, at any rate, that the efliciency of the various theatre boards of London and New York will not be seriously impaired by the verbose statements of the youthful correspondent. He seems to forget that the main object of the subordinate tem- perance lodges is the creation of a healthy temperance sentiment in the youth, who, in the natural order of things, must eventually

We will leave it to a discerning public to decide as to what party is entitled to the fore- going epithets—those who have guaranteed their support in case of emergency, those who have failed to carry out the law notwithstand- ing this support, or those, like ‘* Truth,” who offered no assistance, but still would like to

In conclusion, we admit that the law is being trampled upon with impunity ; that free 1:um is corrupting the life blood and sap- ping the vitals of the community ; but to say that because of this all temperance advocates are in league with the liquor dealers, is more
we also confess that it is high time that Mr. Nicholson and the real supporters of temper- ance should awaken to a higher sense of their duty and uphold the majesty of the law before all other considerations, and in spite of the petty hindrances and child-like criticisins thrown in the way by a few chronic grumblers

Letter of Condolence.
To the family of the late John C. Leitch :
The officers and members of Blooming Heather Division, Sons of sTemperance, wish to convey to you their heartfelt sympathy in the loss of one of their most talented members. Although prevented, of late from taking an active part in our work, yet in him we always found one ready to speak a cheering word, and to aid us in every good movement.
But not only in our Division and at the fire- side will his loss be keenly felt. In church and school matters he always took a promi- nent part, and to his exertion we can trace many of the advantages we are to-day en-
joying.
n his death enother of the old landmarks has been removed; but we sorrow not as those who have no hope; for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that = fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with
im.
So short-sighted are we that we may be dis- posed to murmur and say, ‘‘ How much better if things had happened otherwise.” But let us remember that we are in the hands of an All-wise Father, who is perfectove and good- ness, who does not willingly affict us, but who looks upon us not 0s mere creatures, whom He was pleased to create, but rather as chil- dren beloved. He knows when to give and when to take away. He looks upon us with mercy through al! the changes of life, and in- vites us to call on Him in the day of trouble, and in .calling on Him, He hath promised comfort for the past and support for the future.
We trust that it. may prove some little com- fort to you in your affliction to rest assured that his memory’ will ‘long be cherished by us, and that when this life shall come to an end, and we again meet those who have gone on a little before, it may be in that better life which shall have no end.
Yours in Love, Purity and Fidelity,
ALEXANDER McLavcaiin, W. W. ALEXANDER, A. C. DoveLas, Committee on behalf of Division. Stanhope, P. E, 1., July 28, 1888.
