Whether the Temperance Alliance ~ were right or not in urging that the ‘employment of bar-maids Should be ,prohrbited, the Christian and moral ‘public may be leit to judge. Says the'Patriot: "If a tax of $200 _ lessens the saloons 50 per cent and a gtax of $500 another lialf,would not a $1,000 tax wipe them out altogether T’ 4 There is not a particle of evidence 'that the license tax has reduced the _drinking or the drunkenness in Char- rlotietown, nor would a $500 license fee probably do so. Asto the' pro- posaltoraiaethe fee to $1,000 it- would be idle to discuss it. What .the Farquhsrson government want is rum revenue, not prohibition. Any temperance people of the Is- l land who happen to bei-eaders of the `Patr-ict-and in its better days' it _had many such,-will not fail to notice its daily advocacy of the license sy =rem and its daily sneers at the __ Scott Act. By arduous and long lcondict the counties were brought ‘under the operation of the law. The Patriot has now become the open ex- ponent and mouthpiece of those who Seelrtodestroy that good work and break down the Scott Act in Prince Edward Island. We greailv regret that a journal once conducted by Hon. David Laird on temperance lines should have in a. few short mouths openly departed to the other side. lllllllll Sllllllll X60 mf' * _ p is tound in ‘ ° own columns.
