So we are to have an anti-Scott Act cam- paigr as an accompaniment to our Christmas ys and New Years festivities. We sin- cerely hope that the contest wi | be carried on in the spirit of the season. The ques- tion involved is confessedly one the most s ; ; difficult of solution Li there be no per- sonal abuse, no personal ill-wili in connec- tion with it : but let the arguments be such ; ‘ ‘ + m i” as to point the electors to a right conclu and to persuade them to vote the sion, right way. It is admitted on al! sides that one of the good points in connection with the opera- tion of the Scott Act is thit it constantly . . i ah 08 aff yrds opp rtunity to hold up to public a 1 ie thi view the evils of intemperance, and ts thus ec mind to a , od the nubli s means of educating the puoi right appreciation of the liquor trafliz. Lhe ? ‘ petition seast, proraoters of the may, at : . "1 i claim credit for having again compelled at- tention to this important watter. Of course, the colamas of THe EXAMINER aro, as usual, open to communications from both sides. But we must stipulate that the letters be as short as possible and right Letters in which personal to the point. charges of any kind are made, must be signed by the writer. It will have been observed that Tue Ex- been attacked by ** Truth,” ‘lies between two ex- AMINER has already writers from both sides. it has been wisely said, tremes”; and men of sense will be apt to conclude—from the fact that it is criticized by both Scott Act and anti-Scott Act men that Tue Examiner is ‘‘about right.” The Patriot is horrified by the idea that Tue Examiner ‘‘censured” the clergymen who spoke at the last meeting of the W. C. t. a5 gentlemen will not say that Tue EXAMINER We venture to say that these referred tothem in terms of ‘‘censure.’ On the contrary, we highly commended them.

There was we venture to insist nothing “‘ungracious ” nothing “‘unkind” in oar * Mr. a ue, no attempt to remove from the mind of Sutherland a misapprehension, doubt to the fact that he is a ‘“‘comparative We plead that it was a gra- cious and kindly act to set right a stranger stranger.” who has evidently made a mistake from lack of full knowledge of the facts of the Rev. gentleman was, undoubtedly, a right prin- ciple. It is right to maintain laws for the protection of the weak and the young. But he was wrong in his application of the principle. case. The principle enacted by the The Scott Act, as operated in Charlottetown has not, unfortunately, proved a battlement for the protection of the young and weak against the dangers of drunkenness. If it had proved such a protection Tue Examiner would be the last to question the advisability of retaining it. Only a few weeks ago stated that ‘‘ There are few cities, we believe, in this Dominion that are so com- pletely in the hands of the rum element as Charlottetown.” If this statement be true, after ten years of the Seott Act, how can it be true that the Scots Act has been a wall of protection for those who are the Guardian likely to fall into the sin of drunkenness? We put the question. Let tha Patriot and the Guardian answer it if they can. {t will have been observed that our cor- raspondeut ** Faith” does not claim for the Scott Act comparison with the battlements upon the house-tops of the Israelites. He places it upon a much lower level. ‘ The Scott Act is,” he says, ** if properly admin- istered, & powerfal lever against the liquor trafic.” That is to say, while he takes ex- ception to THe Examiner's criticism, he vractically agrees with Tux Examiner. It will be admitted that a great deal depends upon the administration of the law. A law that is not properly administered cannot be | effective ; and nothing will, it seems, ensure a proper administration of the Scott Act but the promulgation of an anti-Scott Act petition. The vigor of the Scott Act work- | ers after the petition comes out, is as won- | derful as it is delightful. \s to the remarks of our correspondent ' « Gitizen,”—Adinittlng the truth of what he says, the fact remains that a license law has not been passed, and that hundreds of electors will hesitate to vote against the Seott Act until there is ‘* something else to fall back upon.” There is, indeed, no im- mediate or certain prospect of the passage of a license law. With the Liberal Con- | servatives a majority in the Lower House and Grits a majority in the Upper House, } } : > about t! there can not De any certainty about ie passage of an Act in respect to which there certain to be much antagonism. — Police Court BEVAN REMANDED, HAY CASE DIS- AGAIN DAVISON RE! -~THE OTHER BUSINESS. HE WORM CASE EASED uit LISSED Tue charge brought against Fred. Bevan and Frank Davison by Mr. 8. C. Nash, Collector of Inland Revenue, was further enquired into by the Strpendiary Magis- rate this morning. Mr, BK. J. Hodgson, (). C., appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. James H. Good for the defendants. Alexander M:Dougall, painter, was the irst witness examined. He testified that the prisoner (Bevan) tuok charge of the premises in the Royalty about two years wo. His father, Job. Bevan, now deceas- ed, lived there before him W-tness said he knew something about the worm. About the year 1830 or 1881 he get a box from the Steam Navigation Company, thinking it was for himself, but the prisoner's father said that what was in the bex belonged to him, and took it away. It was something to make beer with. He knew it was out at Bevan’s (the prisoner’s) premises His mother would ask witness to go and talk tothe She seemed afraid that he would use it. Witness told the prisoner 1e ought to do away with it. He (Bevan) said he never touched it, and so long as he was not using it he thought there was no harm in his keeping it. Witness did not know on what part of Bevan’s premises it was kept, or where the boiler part of it was prisoner about it gone. a é Emily McDougall, wife of the previous witness, was next called. She said se knew that there was a distilling apparatus or worm on the premises when the prison- er’s father died, but did not know it was there when the prisoner took possessiun of the premises. She saw it in the house during her mother’s time. All she saw was the worm, lt was upstairs in the bedroom. Her mother often wished she could get rid of it. She never knew of the prisoner using it. This evidence closed the case. The Magistrate said that he did not think there was sufficient evidence against Davi- son to convict, and, therefure, ordered that the charge against him be dismissed. He would, however, remand Bevan until Mon- day. Four drunks were disposed of for fines ranging from $2 or 8 daysto $60 or 60 days. A milkman, summoned on complaint of the City Surveyor for driving on the side- walk was fined tive cents end costs. After the police court business was over His Honor further enquired into the chargeof hay stealing, preferred against the prisoners Bevan and Davison by Mr. J.J. Trainor. (fficer Bradley said that the evidence in this case was all in. His Honor said that there was not sufficient evidence to convict either of the prisoners, and dismissed the charge. oie! _ . re Se The Storm To-lay. Throvghout last night it rained heavily, with the wind blowing from the west. This morning about half-past seven, however, the rain ceased, and the snow began to fall, the wiad shifting north and north-east. During the early part of the focenocn the wind freshened up somewhat, and at one o'clock it was blowing at the rate of thirty- six miles an hour. The high wind sent the snow flying about in thick clouds, forming drifts ranging from one to two feet high in places. When THe EXAMINER went to press the storm was still raging, and the barometer was falling rapidly, indicating colder weather. The storm is general throughout the Pro- vince. Telephonic advices from Stanley report that a schooner broke from her moorings this morning, and ran into an- other schooner, sustaining some damage. After the collision, the loose schooner was tied to the Bridge. At latest accounts fears were entertained for the safety of the Bridge, as both wind and tide were driving the schooner against it at a terrific rate. The St. Lawrence did not leave Sum- merside for Point du Chene this morning owing to the storm. The Princess o® Wales left here for Pictou at the usual hour this morning, but is not expected back this evening, — —_ 2+ ae +e Notes and Comments, —We learn that the Board of Education has adopted for exclusive use in the schools of this Province the Canadian Reader, published by J.
