The Scott Act.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Sir,—The Canada Temperance Act was carried in Charlottetown by a vote of 827 to 253, and in Queens County by a vote of 1317 to 99—a majority of 13tol. It was paseed to be enforced. It musi and it will be enforced If any man thinks otherwise, he knows little of Island pluck and Island determination. The saloon isto go. That much is determined on. Whether it will | go of its own motion, or whether it will | have to be compelled to go, it matters | little, for go it must and go it will. The| handwriting on the wall is very plain, and | there is not a liquor dealer in Charlotte town who is not able to read it. Let him | not trifle with the power behind this mea- | sure, nor provoke its wrath, for it is the) intention and purpose of the people of Prince Edward Island to enforce the awe)

and banish the traffic. Let no one misun- derstand this. It may take more effort, it)
