We are free to admit that a pr0hll>l5°l'! liquor law will be evaded more than 89! other law. The temptations to. and facilities for its violation are peculiar to itself, and give to those who undertsketo violate it an opportunity greater than to other law-breakers. The man who steals finds in the person from whom he steals one active and determined to bring him to jtmtice. The manufacturer or Vendof of intoxicants isnided and abetted by the person from whom the grain for its manu- facture is obtained by the buyer of tho liquor. The maker, seller and user of strong drink therefore seem to have a community of interest in conce sling their wrong doing.

Violators of liquor laws are not dreaded as violators of other laws. Thievﬂ» swindlers, or those guilty of R003 I30 3 menace to all parties. No one feels safe when they are about. Self-interest prompts to gnﬂtd lllﬁlf against such felons. Offenders are sought out with all and brought to justice. It would take a high state of moral senti- ment to give equal aid to the enforcement of a prohibitory liquor law. Such a senti- ment, we believe, exists to-day in the Dominion of Canada.

It could hardly be expected, especially at first that a prohibitory liquor law would be fully and rigidly enforced. But if outlawed by legislative enactment, all who have regard for the respectof the community in which they live, and to their standing among their lsllowmen would withdraw from the business. It would be left in the hands of the lawless and disreputable.

If the government having passed a pro- hibitory law would appoint for their officers to enforce it men of tried and proved temperance principles, and then exercise the same authority over these appointments asis nowdouein thsaseof mengemploysd to carry out the revenue laws of the country, a prohibitory law could and would be enforced quite as well as our revenue laws are. And who cries out for the repeal of the revenue laws on account of their non-enforcement ‘I No one.

Letushavethielaw,andafair measure of enforcement, the moral sentiment of the country against the liquor traﬂc would become stronger and stronger. Law is an educator. An educated public sentimsntwoald help aid«iu. the fuller enforcement of the law.

Hearsay Evidence.

To the Editor of the fluardian.

If I remember right when the Royal Commimion met for the first time‘ in Montreal to discuss the nature of evidence they should hear, and the scope toll! permitted a witness in evidence it was decided that nothing hearsay be admitted and only facts coming within the practical knowledge of the witness.

‘.Now in‘ reading the evidence of His Lordship Judge H-xdson, I ﬁni he states “ the " enforcement of the Scott Act, leads to bedroom “drinking.”

Now we have on this commission as presiding‘ oflicer at present a county court judge, who surely ought at his time of life to know what constitutes evidence. The jurist who is on the witness stand, ought also to know what is really evidence. Yet we find the both violating the prin- ciples of common prrctdure in a court‘of justice,—-the former lacking the backbone -«of which his friends were so boaatingly proud of when pressing for his appoint- ment on the commission—in not carrying out the rules, adopted when the commis- sion was appointed,— or the latter, must be in perfect ignoranceof these rules and make statements hearsay, etc. When Judge Hodson stated that “ the enforce- ment of the Scott Act lead “to bedroom drinking,” did such knowledge come from personal e.rperi'en"e, or hearsay.

We followed him up two ﬂights of stairs, and unlocking a bedroom door, he went to the bed, and from underneath a pillow took a bottle"of Cognac, and with a glass upon the bureau we each had our drink in turn. _

We have many, yes too many weak kneed, bsckboneless people who will smart, in the face of facts as the above, that in that very town—there is just “as " much liquor Iuld, today. as if there “ were a dozen bars runningunder license “ law." The matter is simply
