prohibitory law. The Montreal Herald Says:

“The only mandatewhich the govern ment should be asked to recognize when 80 revolutionary a proposal as prohibition of the hquor traflic is in the balance, is

that given by the preponderating mejority of the whole electorate, for only then could areasonably strict enforcement of ihe law be expected, Pe

And again :

“The prohibitionists can approach that parliament only for legislation affecting the whole dominion, And such legislation, in the face ofthe opinion of Quebec, is im-x practicable. No government would be justified in forsing a lawon a province so united!y opposed to it.”

Here are two reasons why the gcvern. menttisto be excused from bringingin a pro-~ hibitory law. As to the firet we have yet to learnthat any measure, even the most important ever passed in Canada. even Confederation, the National Policy or the Canadian Pacific Railway, had bebind it “a preponderating mejority of the * Yet all these measvres were passed and have been carried out to the satiefaction of the country. The Herald forgets apparently that the elev - torates Of Ontario, Manitoba and Prince Edward Island had previously declared in fayor of prohibition by overwhelmning majorities, and that the large majority more recently polled over the whole coun- try was obtained in the tace of ministerial statements by which many of the people were convinced that the latest plebiscite was afarce as the the others were, and therefore not worth while voting in. But the Herald says, also, that prohib- itory legislation is impracticable because a majority in Quebec has declared against it. “No Government,” it continues, “would be justified in forcing a law on a province so utterly opposed to it.” That is to tay, @ majority in Quebec is to sway the Government of the whole of Canada. This is a new idea. Certainly the Goy- ernment did not act in accordance with the will of Quebec when it hung Riel! If the Quebec majority against prohibition had overtopped that of all the other provinces combined in favor of it, a)! prohibition iste, being good citizens, would have instantly Submitted. But the majority against pror hibition in Quebec, being topped by the majority in favor of prohibition thronghout Canada, it becomes the duty of the people of Quebec to yield an equally ready submission. It is openly charged that the majority in ‘Juebec was increased, if not obisined, by means of fraud and misrepresentation, But apart from this consideration ~we shall be greatly surprised if the majority obtained in Canada ae a whole will be content to bow submissively to the majo- rity obtained in Quebec. ‘To do so would be to act ina manner that is un-British and unconstitutiona!. Quebec must not and shal! not rule Canada at large.
