A Reproof.

Sin,—The Guardian of last evening at- tempts to account for the decrease in the number of arrests for drunkenness during the years 1878, 1879 and 1889, by charging it to | the temperance wave which pass-d_ over Charlottetown during D. Banks McKenzie’s visit. The editor of the Guardian must have been a very sma!l boy at the time of which he writes, and consequently cannot have sufficient personal knowledge of the **wave’ to discuss the matter, but must depend oa others for bis information, On this grouad his inac- curacies may be excused. fl

full we ] that the-men and women who took the b ue ribbon were never in the lock up in their tives or in the dock for drankennes*. The class of people who took the pledge, was composed not of the class that unfortunatly fall into the hands of the police, but of charch goers, and in some instances Sunday School teachers. In fact, some of the very men who arenow advocating the retention of the Scott Act were amongst the number. I challenge the editor of the Guardian to name one man who joined the band that had ever previously been arrested for drunkenes?,

If the Guardian writer wishes to verify the foregoing, he can easily do so by enquiring of the lady that had charge ef the Bowling alley and refreshment saloon which was started in the Atheneum as an outcome of the McKeoz‘e movement, Ask her whether any of the former drunks who adorned the police court dock ever darkened her deor.

Crediting to Banks McKenzie the decrease ef the number of arrests in the years referred to is.pure childish nonsense and nothing more.
