We do this willingly because his course has ' een very severely ar- raigned in tht-BQ ¢0lu|l_D!. Bild THF Gunniax is always desirous _not to condemn any reputable public man unheard, provided always that he makes his defence in courteous terms as Mr. Farquharson has done.

which they obtairi this “freedom” to prey upon their fellowmen in respect- able guise, it is wrong this year :il-io.

But as if the wrong of the trans-

. action were not a suiiicient reason for his opposition, Mr. Farquharson tells us he had other reasons as well; “The plebiscite was then announced and l we hoped to carry prohibition." Well, the plebiscite has been held, mul it showed that more than three foul-the lof the people of this Island demand- `ed prohibition. Does the fact afford

helpless and imperilled birds up-Jn tht-:_ FOOSC. _ | Of course Mr. Faiquhnrson blames

the temperance men. He says they brought in free rum. They did not re- spond to his alleged olfer to bring in provincial prohibition. They did not correspond ,with ;he Minister of j Justice te ascertain the extent of ' provincial powers. Their proposed bill allowed sellers the - privilege to- sell on with some new restrictions. They last year proposed that the ialoon keeper “should pay into the . funds of the city $200 before he be- gan to sell, which amount would be forfeited and become city funds if`he` broke the law." Everyone of these etatemepts is a eophistry,a fallacy or '~ a groesperversion of fact. ‘

It was not the temperance men who brought in free rum l Mr. Far- f quharson. had before - him in the columns of THD GUARDIAN Mr.” Mills’ distinct statement of our provincial
