Bisnor Boyp, of Montreal, is strongly in favor of the legal prohibition of the liquor traffic. In the course ofa recent charge, after adducing the arguments of certain good men whoare averse to prohibi tion, while at the eame timethey advocate ® temperance as severe as that of the prohibitionists, the speaker said : “Now al! this,tomy mind, makes for prohibition, I donot think I have under- stated the argumente of these good men, and I have not entangled the question with the reasoning of those few who oppose from @ fear thereby of weakening faith in God. If all this be true, as I think it is, and due in no smal] measure to the ad- vocates of prohibition, thea let us promote and hasten the process, ‘make it easy to do right and difficult to do wrong.’ Let us adopt Father Matthew’s decision ‘The prio~ ciple of prohibition seemsto me,’ he says, ‘the only safe and certain remedy for tue evils of intemperance.’ I add the ) quor | traffic is most injurious to the best interests , of the commonwealth from every point of - view, It provides a beverage, which even: ' tually ia pairs (if not destroys) the men- j tal powers, which has a pernicious effect oo the body, which preyerts to evil the family and social intercorsue, and which destroys the happiness and prosperity of millions. “Viewed in its epiritual aspect, its working is most disastrous; viewed in its humanitarian aspect, its action on man- kind is most deteziorating. After quoting eminent authorities on the widespreed evils wrought by intemper- ance, Bishop Bond concluded this portion- of his charge by repudiatirg the insinua™ } tions that smuggling would be that the revenue of the country would suffer »f prohibition were adopted. increased | and SUNNYSIDE, } « } | | One of the many readers of suai \XAMINER ip the country has directed our attention toa mistake in our last niin tatement of Goverament ¢ xpenditure, \ ~ 1 © al A CORRECTION, ee evennes, and deficits.
