The causes of the admitted failure of the Scott Act inthe past are not far to seek. In the main they are (1) the strength of men's appetites for stimulants, (2) the practical weakness and practical insincerity of Scott Act sentiment in Charlottetown.

Some persons see, or affect to see, as a result of the canvass, a prospect that the Let will tantially supported by public sentiment in the fature. But lovking to tangible results, we must confess that we, at least.can see no good or sufficient ground for arriving at that conclusion. The efforts put forth in the ps m mth or two are, in our opinion, ealy the spasmodic efforts which usually precede a Scott Act election,

and which are sure to be followed by relapse or collapse after the election has been held. The strength of men's appetites for drink remains the same; and the promoters of the Scott Act tell us plainly that they will do nothing in the matter after the election

But it is not strange that, from the same facts, as to the Seott Act, other clergy- men as well as laymen, have arrived ata different opinion,—when we hear the widely different interpretations placed ‘upon the Bishop's letter. The Scott Act men con- strue it to mean that His Lordship is still in tavor of the Scott Act;while those who are not Scott Act men declare that the good Bishop says in effect: ‘‘] am a temperance man, as you all do know, and | sympathize with the femperance cause ; but I can’t support the Seott Act in this election as I did in for- mer years and | won't receive your com- We offer no opinion as to which interpretation is right.

—It is stated that Scott Act fnes yo into the City Treasury, and that * the city loses little or nothing — because nearly as much money is taken by the city for fines w would be taken for licenses.” This is a vuiy mean canvass, particularly mean when it is used by a Scott Act canvasser- and it is false. The amount of fines imposed under the Scott Act are held in trust, to be ap- plied only to the purposes of the Act.

Commercial Union. SENATOR HAYTHORNE'S SPRECH BEFORE THE BOARD OF TRADE—SUMMARY REPORT,

Hon. Senaror, HayrHorNE said that it might bedeemed somewhat presumptuous in him, who had never engaged in trade, to venture to address the Board on a question of this kind. But he had lived long and been a close observer. This is a many sided question. New phases of it are constantly appearing. Since he came to the meeting phases of it had been presented to his view, whieh he had not before contemplated ; and he would very much regret if Canadashould act hastily, or before she saw her way clearly in this very important matter. The vld Reciprocity Treaty was, without doubt, highly beneficial to this Island. During its continuance there was an active demand for eur produce, not only in Charlottetown,

friend of his (the late Hon. Mr. Dingwell) had told him that while the treaty was in operation he had often sent two cart loads of potatoes to the shipping place and! received ‘in return two five dollar gold pieces. The farming part of the community then received fair prices and trade was

brisk, Similar advantages might be ex- pected as a result of the proposal under dis-

capita in 1860, increased to $11.21 in 1870, and to $13.36 in 1880. Who paid for all these goods? Clearly the agriculturist. No one else but the farmers, with their corn, meat, tobacco, .cutton, etc., paid for the bulk of the goods imported into the United States. The woolen exports of the United States for 1880 were only $331,000; but the imports of foreign woolens were $39, 000,000—plus'1 23,000,000 Ibs. of foreign wool valued at $23,000,000. The Anteri- can carpet exports in 1880 amounted to 8,541 yards; the imports of carpets to 1,443,000 yards. Mr. Wells is an anti- protectionist, but he is nevertheless opposed to any radical or immediate change of the poliey which has encouraged the invest- ment of capital and the employment of labox ; and if this policy be maintained, it is very probable that we shall have to draw eur imports from the United States. One of the probable consequences will be that Wngland will withdraw privileges which she now extends to the Canadians. In the exports of cattle, for instance, Canada lias the privilege—and a great privilege it is—-of sending live cattle into the English markets, while American cattle are all slaughtered at the porgof entry. . If this »rivilege alone were withdrawn, Canada would) lose many. thousands of dol- lars every year. Our hope in _ the Fisheries, lies in the maintenance of che Treaty Gf 1818. But if we give our trade to the Americans, is it at all likely that England will exert herself to preserve that Act religiously, or to assist .us in case of need in the protection of our fisheries ? in ease of Commercia! Union we would be the weak party to the contract; and we shovld have to accept the position.

T'eetotalism ! In the course of my remarks I took occasion to express my unqualified disapproval of, the attempt to throw the entire blame.gf the non-enforeement of Seott’Act on ‘the

while consequences might spring from hasty: action which we should never cease to re-

gret. The Americans area very diffeult, people to deal with. How many times have

agreements with their government been arrived at only to be repudiated by Con-

gress. Only last year an arrangement with | their Government was~broken by the Senate, and Canada was, without reason, spoken of in terms anything but compli- mentary —terms such as he would not care to have repeated. Some years ago the government of the United States agreed to pay to merchants in this Province a rebate on fish sent into the United States mar- kets. With what result ?: Congress refused to ratify the bargain ; and the Government of Canada had at last to step forward and pay the United States’ debt. Remember. how they contrived — to outwit Great Britain in respect to the Maine boundary, the Orevon boundary, the San Juan difficulty and the Newfoundland fisheries difficulty. Their Alabama Claim resulted ‘in the award to them of so large a sum of money that they did not know what, to do with it. Almost the only case in’ which we came out on even terms in & negotiation with the Americans was in that: of the Halifax Convention. It is therefore necessary that we should use caution in respect to any agreement we nay desire to make concerning reciprocal trade relations. . The former Reciprocity Treaty included only anumber of specified articles, and. except in respect to them, we retained full tontrol of our own tariff. But the proposed Commercial Union resembles so very closely a political union that it should be regarded with the greater care. In_ the event of Commercial Union, Canada would certainly stand ata very great disadyantage, com- pared with a wealthy and powerful natjor such fas the¢ United States. It has been stated, and thg statement is no doubt true, that the union of this Province with Canada has not been a great success from a commercial point of view. We sell tov littTe to Canada, and we have to buy” too much. It is to be feared that Canada would suffer in the proposed union with the United States much in the same way tha< Prince Edward Island suffered in her union with Canada. The United States would be

very unlikely to pledge themselves to maintain an uniform tariff for a number of years. The tariff would be

subject to revision, and it is not hkely that the interest. of Canada would always be consulted. The people of Canada should investigate the arrangement as closely as possible. It becomes us all to regard ix with caution; and before consenting to 1% we shoifld be sure that every provision like- ly to result prejudicially to this country ix eliminated. - Fhe. Hoa... David Wells ik known as.one of the first statists ~in Amer: ica. In 1882 Mr. Wells delivered a lecture before the Young Mens’ Democratic Club, in which he instituted a comparison be- tween the value of agricultural and manu- factured exports, showing that in 1859-6) the manufactures exported were 17.5 per

cent. of the whole; and in 1869-70, after ten years of high tariff, the manufactures wers | 13.4 per cent. of the whole export; and in | 1879-80, after another period of high duties,

they were 12.5 per cent. On the other’ hand, Mr. Wells pointed out that the im-'

action of its friends ; and I hold that if th

people who have undertaken to champion the temperance cause in this city had done their duty, there would be less cause of oes ane These two words, wjited action, would do more, if put into practice by the Scott Act supporters, towards securing its observance than any amount of faults tinding. Talking is the easiest thing under the sun, and scribbling for newspapers under an anonymous name _ is the kind ‘of work that is suited to’school children. The thing that is most wanted to compel: a wholesome respect fer the law, to clear illicit groggeries and to put an end to per- jury, isthe determined agd ynited action of the supporters OF the Seott Act, Let

j this experiment be tried, and keep all the

ordinary agencies for the promotion of tem, perance active, and brighter days will dawn upon us, But if the old course pre- vious to the beginning of this election cam- paign is lazily followed, the direct. .testi- mony, | fear, will be from ‘*bad to worse.” -In this connection I did say in closing my sermon that ‘‘ if our citizens are not satisfied with the present law, and afe unwilling tg make the necessary effort to enforce it, and it seems te me that five years trial is long enough for them to arrivé at some conclusion, then, in the name of justice get some law that you will enforce, and if you cannot prohibit the traffic, at least ,bring it under some lawful restraint.” These are the identical words and I have not the slightest dispusition to alter them. If I had despotic powers I might have commanded the citizens of Charlottetown; but being one of themselves I am bound to abide by their decision. But while grinting my fellow townsmen the right .to exercise their own judgment, | must mildly protest againsh the attenipt which has been made. by some. unknown party on that gecount to quote me as an advocate of license. When] assume that role I will give the public due natice; that until then I shall be thankful if others— those who are representing ne as a member of thes Licensed Liquor Dealer's Associa- tion "-—would cease their libelous slander. Personally, 1 am in perfett syrapathy with the work of temperance reform, and if the Seott Act is sustained on the 24th, as] confidently believe it will be, I shali be satisfied ; and if the same degree of enthu- giagm is directed by its friends towards its enforesment as is now dispiayed.towards retaining it, the feeling gf satisfaction will be widespread. J have written this note not for the sake’ of taking part in the present discussion, but because some parties unknown to me persist in’ misrepresenting my position in regard to the question at issue.

Sim.- 1 ata somewhat ‘surprised at the position taken by Tue Examiner for some time past upon what, perhaps, is the most important question ever submitted to the, electors of this city, and the result of which may tell, for weal or woe, upom the next geueration, I refer to your persistent op- position to the Scott Act, and advocacy of a License Law, because of illicit: selling,and (the assertion) that more drunkenness apd perjury exists under, aud as the effect, of the Act than formerly; theretore the Scott Act has failed, and we must fall back on a License Law to regulate the traffic in in- toxicating drinks, notwithstanding the fact that legislation must first be had, and judg- ing from your leading editorial of the 19th inst., the chanees for a stringent License Law are very slight, and in the meantime rum is to have full sway in our town.

It is but a few months ago since you very truly described the rumseller as ** Cursed of Ged, and all good men, who put the bottle to their neighbor’s lips, making them drunken withal, and sending their souls to damnation ?”

When you penned this statement you enunciated a great and solemn truth, and it is just as true to-day as then, why, there- fore, now advocate a License Law which would authorize men to ‘'make men drunk- en &nd send souls to perdition?”’

The artizan who completes 4 piece of work points to it with adegree of pride as an evidence of his skill and good workman- ship, and like an honest man ean_ look his fellow-man_in the face and say, **Phat’s my work, look at it;" but you donit find the battan whé is li¢ensed tv ‘‘ make? drunken” atep outside his bar-room or store, calling to the passer-by, and point to the man, (his partially completed work) reeling on the street, or lying in the gutter, and say, “That is my work, look at it.” No, not at all; that is am industry he cannot and dare not acknowledge, with the honest ride that the artizan evidences, in his fendfwork, (the man who Wrote against the Scott Act with the view of substituting in its place a License Law, must take his share of the responsibility attaching to this kind of industry. )

The plea that the Scott._Act, as such,leads to perjury and illicit selling is worthless. Do you never hear of illicit selling and false swearing under the License Law? Do you never hear of selling. to a minor, to an Indian, or on the Sabbath Day, and of fines for violation ia these respects? Did you never hear of any man who held_a store license, which authorized to sell not Jess than one quart, being fined for selling a smaller quantity /

Are you aware that’ some of those en- gaged in the traffic, and who are prominent in their opposition to, and in violating the Seott Act, sold for months during the oper- ation of a License Law,without taking outa license so toalo /

“Tam no temperance fanatic, but I have had opportunities of watching the working of, and enforcing a license law, and my pdeli berate conviction is that you cannot regulate the traffic in intoxieating ‘drinks #the man who will sell either at the bar or store cannot be regulated, he has no regard for any law, humana, or divine, he recognizes no law beyond that of selling all he possibly can, in any way snd - manner and tu anybody and atany time.

Let.all, then, who haye regard for law, sobriety and morality, and for a happy home vote on the coming Thursday for. the retention of the Scett Act.
