Mave Courage, My Boy, to Say “cc No.” You're starting on life’s journey, Alone on the highway of life; f Youl’'ll meet with a thousand temptations, _ Each city with evil is rife. This world is a stage of excitement, There’s danger wherever you go, But if you are tempted in weakness, Have the courage, my boy, to say ‘‘No.” The siren’s sweet song may allure you, Beware of her cunning and art; Whenever you see her approaching, Be guarded, and haste to depart. The billiard saloons are inviting, Decked out in their tinsel and show. You may be invited to enter ; Have the courage, my boy, to say ‘‘Nos* The bright, ruby wine may be offered; No matter how tempting it be, From poison that stings like an adder, My boy, have the courage to flee, The gambling saloons are before you, Thelr lights, how they dance to and fro; If you should be tempted to enter, Think twice, even thrice, ere you go. In courage alone lies your safety When you the long journey begin, And trust in a Heavenly Father Will keep you unspotted from sin. Temptations will go on increasing, i As streams from a rivulet flow; | Butif you are true to your manhood, Have the eourage, my boy, to say ‘‘No.” —The Leader. Prohibition—Constitutional and Statutory. results must accomplish three things: 1. ; Unite all enemies of the liquor traffic. 2. | Thoroughly educate and prepare the people ‘for correct legislation. 3. Guarantee a ‘ thorough trial of the law before its change or repeal. The purpose of the work is the iprevention of the evil results of the alco- ‘ holic liquor traffic by the destruction of the .traflic. The traffic being a social institution is entitled to protection the’same ‘as other social institutions, so long as its results are a blessing to society. The demand for its : destruction is based, not on the fact that it ‘is called the liquor traffic, but because it ‘has proved itself an enemy of the purposes for which society exists. The trafic was allowed to develop by society to bless. man, ‘and has always debauched and degraded ‘him. It is aggressive in its viciousness, and the people are forced to adopt measures -to defend themselves. No sane man will undertake to defend the record, orto jus- _tify the effects of the traffic. Bancroft says: ‘To perfect: the system, and forever prevent revolution, power is reserved tu the people, by amendments of their constitution, to remove every imper- fection which time may lay bare, and to ‘adapt it to unforeseen contingencies.” American constitutions provide that when any great question affecting the social hap- piness or prosperity of the people is to be determined, the legislature shall, by consti- tutional amendment, submit it to the peo- ple, for them to examine and determine ; that they shall have ample time to discuss, examine and form correct opinions, and then, on a day set apart, shall go to the Llo’ their written opinions, and a majority of those opinions ballot box and deposit shall decide the action of the government. The provision makes American progress an evolution by ballots instead of a revolution by bullets. stitution, and the charges urged against it are that its whole results debauch and degrade society. Its destruction means a great social change, and I do not believe it wise or best to attempt it by statutory law.

A person of some ex-) ame perience, well aera will be preferred.’ could only be amended by the people, and to say nothing of other means of influence which it is charged are used. The legisla- tors as a class are partisans, who unite party success with all questions of public policy ; and the laws they pass are subject to modi- fication or repeal at any time by themselves ‘or succeeding legislatures. On the contrary, constitutional law can only be adopted by the whole people, after calm and mature ‘deliberation, the provisions for amendment preventing unwise and hasty action. The law once adopted it is guaranteed a fair trial, _ because its repeal is just as difficult as its ‘adoption. , In Kansas the prohibitory principle was ‘placed in the constitution. The drunkard- makers, adopting the tactics of their EHast- ern allies, refused to obey the the law in many places and organized secretly to over- -throwit. Thedecent people, having outlawed ‘the business, thought the question settled, ‘and took up other issues. The outlaws, having but one object, traded, conspired, ‘and combined with every other class or ‘clique that would combine with them; and ‘ covering their real purpose with the cry of anti-monopoly, anti-third term, and other -issues in regard to which Prohibitionists ‘are not agreed, they defeated, as they ‘thought, prohibition. Their triumph was | ghort-lived; for they found that. though | prohibitionists were divided as regarded ‘other issues, they were a unit in their ‘hated of the liquor traffic, and the principle | being in the constitution, to repeal it would {again strip the question of all side issues, ‘and draw the line with the defenders of the home on one side, and the defenders of the | grog-shop on the other. They had cap- ‘tured the eaathworks of statutory law, but the principle they wished to destroy was in . the citadel of the constitution, defended by ‘the lovers of home, country, and civiliza. ; tion, and no political compromise or bar- The constitution this would force the traffic to meet its re- cord of crime, vice and _ rebellion. nothing to lose, would, but politicians did Any plan of work to produce permanent The alcoholic liquor traffic is an old in- Statutory law is passed by representatives of the peo- ‘ple, using the people’s power. The repre- sentatives are few in number, subject to ; influence of popular passion and excitement, The liquor men, having everything to gain and not dare, force the issue, and the State was and is safe. The liquor traffic is an ulcer on the body politic; no change in its treatment sheuld be made without mature deliberation; and when the change is made, it should be made in such a shape as to insue a full and fair trial of the new treatment. The change proposed is to change the power vested in the legislature from full power to be used asthe legislature pleases, to limited power to be used as the people direct. Joun B. Fince od Obituary. Robert Irving was born at Annandale, Scotland, May 10, 1805, and whilst quite young came with his parents to Prince Edward Island. He was married ro Eliza- “beth Laing of Tryon, February 14, 1824. Of said marriage-a—-™S—¢ there “were—seven _— children, two of whom, together with the mother, are still living. In 1852 he re- moved west and for three years lived at Montgomery, Illinois, afterwards going to Allen’s Grove, Lee County, in said state, where, for several years he was engaged in farming. In 1875 he moved to the village of Waterman, in Dekalt County, where he resided until the time of his death. . He departed this life on Tuesday July 27th, 1890, being then 85 years of age, and on the 31st inst. was buried at Smith’s Grove cemetery. Mr. Irving was a quiet, well disposed man, respected by all his neigh- bors, and just and equitable in all his business transactions. A Clever Fisherman. In the course of the last of her charming letters from Newfoundland, ‘‘ Faith Fen- ton” writes :— ‘¢ Tt is difficult to realize that this Island, bound to us by so many ties, is not yet» part ofthe Dominion. Confederation must come, though—must come speedily. Thoughtful men of every class are looking for it and ad- vocating it. It is so palpably the best course that even the most ignorant classes are be- coming reconciled to the thought. During the election contest last year ‘‘Sold to Canada” was a catch cry used for political purposes through the campaign, just as ‘‘Sold to the French ” is the party catch cry of to-day. It served to rouse an opposition among the un- educated classes that defeated the movement. But the defeat is only temporary. Thousands of colonists of all grades favor the movement, and many of these are looking forward with eager hopefulness to the time when they will become sons of Canada, Ihave made many enquiries of this people concerning this matter, and in every case, save one—a little storekeeper of my own sex, who tip-tilted her nose and declared in favor of annexation—the answers have been favor- able to confederation ; some in eager assent ; others in thoughtful declaration that is the only _wise resource. : One sturdy old man, a fisherman standing in one of the queer little market coves beside the harbor water, was grumbling about hard work and small results. “You must join Canada, and become a Canadian,” I remarked, as I turned over the speckled beauties in his stall. “Who'd rule we?” he questioned. ‘‘The Queen,” I said, ‘‘and under her 1 suppose Sir John Macdonald and his government.” “Did he ever do any fishin’?’ he asked interestedly. ‘‘Lots of it,” I answered, laughing, ‘*I think he must be a really clever fisherman.” “Ts he, now?” said the old fellow, admir- ingly. ‘Then he’ll do for we.” a: News Notes. Flour rose 15 cents per bag at Winnipeg on Tuesday owing to the rise in wheat. It is reported that the C. P. R. Company have purchased the controlling stock of the Wabash. Nicholas Luning, whose wealth is estimat- ed at $20,000,000, died at San Francisco on Tuesday. A complete suspension of the shipping trade of Australia is threatened in \conse- quence of the demand of the Marine Officers Association for an increase of pay. Js sie Taseatay es Odds and Ends. Money talks, sure enough, and people are generally willing to listen to it, too. It is as hard to do business without adver- tising, as it is for a cross-eyed man to borrow a shot gun, An umbrella is a remarkable paradox from the fact that it is at its best when used up.—Philadelphia Press. Charley: ‘‘Sir, will you give assent tomy marriage with your daughter?” Stern father : ‘‘No, sir, not a penny.” It is a little singular, to say the least, that after a man has been painting the town red he usually feels blue.—Boston Courier. “Ts that cement any good ?” asked a pros- pective purchaser of a peddler. ‘‘Any good ?” was the reply. ‘‘Why, you could mend the break of day with that cement.” A recent notable instance of absence of mind.was.an eastern editor quoting from a rival paper one of his own articles, and heading it, ‘‘Wretched Attempt at Wit!” Editor—What do you think of our new weekly edition ? at i Reader—It’s a splendid paper, I like it better than the daily. E.—Why ?—It contains the same matter. R.—Yes, I understand that ; but it only comes once a week. Pleasant old gent.—Young man, what is the latest in hats ? ; Smart young man.—Heads, sir.
