The General Assembly adopted the fol- lowing deliverance on temperance: ‘ This Assembly believes that the general traffic In intoxicating liquors is the source of ter- rible and enormous evils which blight the prospecte, destroys the health and character and ruins the soul of the individual ; that it mars the happiness, wastes resources and degrades the life of the family; that it lowers the moral sentiment and endangers the peace and safety of society ;. that it greatly increases the number of the ‘lapsed masses,’ intensifies every evil and is a most fruitful source of crime ; that it not only hinders seriously but antagonizes the church in her work of uplifting the race and win- ning souls fer Christ ; and ‘that it is con- trary to the teaching of Scripture and the spirit of the Christian religion.” An amend- ment was moved by Rev, M. McDonnell, seconded by Chief Justice Taylor, that the first two lines read, ‘*This Assembly be- lieves that the general traffic in inxtoxi- cating liquors, especially the indiscriminate sale of liquors in bar-rooms and saloons, is a source of enormous evil; that the intem- perance occasioned by it blights, etc.” The amendment was lost, 142 to 35. Another amendment was moved by Principal Grant and Rev. Mr. Herridge, to strike out the whole deliverance. Lost, 143 to 37. Stiil another amendment was offered by Mr. Mc- Donnell to strike out the words ‘‘contrary to the teachings of Scripture and the spirit of the Christian religion.” This, too, was lost, only 32 voting for it. The deliverance as above was carried, 153 to 42.. The fol- lowing resolutions indicating the means. to be recommended to the people for meeting and overcoming the traffic and its accom- panying evils were ‘adopted by unanimous resolution :— 1. That the faithful preaching and teach- ing of the gospel ig the first and essential element, in building up a temperate, pros- perous and Godly nation. 2. Members of the church be urged to practice and inculcate total abstinence as theonly absolutely safe course. 3. That in view of the acknowledged fact. that much of the wine of commerce is ex- ceedingly impure, we strongly urge on all the sessions of the church the duty of secur- ing as far as possible the pure ‘fruit of the vine” for use in the sacrament. 4. That all available means be used to. secure in ail our public schools teaching of, the effect of alcohol on the health an& morals. 5. That the importance of moral suasion. in promoting the temperance reform be em- phasized. 6, That,inasmych as menare,through the influence of theliquor habit, hardened to the appeals of the gospel and the arguments of “* moral suasion” and are made _ indifferent; to the true interests of their fellow men or the welfare of their country, it is neees~ sary in order to protect the young, . the. weak and unwary from temptations and ruin and to restrain the lawless, to invoke the aid of the law so as to reduce, and, if. possible, extinguish, these evils by wise le- gislation. 7. That, whilst the restrictive and pro- hibitory features of existing liquor laws are. gratefully acknowledged and should be per~ sistently utilized, it is the conviction of this assembly that no legislation short of prohibition, rigidly enforced by the proper,.civil authorities, will ever be able to free our land from the terrible evils: of intemperance; and that it is the duty of the Dominion Parliament to. enact such’ a law} Resolved, That this Assembly hereby authorizes the committee on temperance for 1890 to continue the negotiations entered into. with other churches, and if the result warrant; it, to have petitions presented to parliament in 1891 or as soon thereafter as practicable, in favor of prohibition. 9. That the Assembly gratefully re- cognizes the work done by the various temperance organizations, and a large por- tion of the press in training the young and educating the publicin the principles of total abstinence and prohibition, and _ re- commend the office bearers and members of the church to give them sympathy, en- couragement and support. te Personai.
