But if both parties refuse to have anything to do wit! prohibition why shall the prohibitioa- isle “*hit” one any more than the oiher ? The thie Guardian is: It the answer to question of the prohibitionists hit ng Government will be more likely to meet their views. Let it be seen that euch trickery as Sir Wilfrid bas been guilty of means death toa Government, and our that the pol:ticians willvery soon discover their interest fies in supporting cause of temperance, and will do their best to overcome the | quor traffic. Once it is seen and felt that the life of the Gov- eroment of Canada is dependent upon the probibition will soon vote, prohibition come. Until this is seen, prohibtion's’s will talk and petition, and send delegations two Ottawa in vain. The opportunity that wi!l be afforded the prohibitionists at the nextelection is one thet over the matter, excuse themselves, explain, the solid fact, may not soon again occure Gloss as they will, there remains admitted by every bonest Liberal, and declared by every honest temperance Conservative, that the Laurie:—Tarte party misled and the Guardian, admitted by [Parkas & U —THE —- Millinery Leaders.

Is there a man in Prince Eiward Island, in all Canada, who will say,.trutbfully and hooestly, that he understood that the pas~ sage of aprobibitory Jaw was dependent upon & majority vote of the whole el-cto- rate of Canada? The Guardian know:, we all know, that the expectation of the public was that a good mejority of votes cast in the plebiscite would be sufficient to influence the Goveroment to bring down a prohibitory bill. In this belief the tem- perance men of Canada acted, in this be lief they voted, and rolled up a good majority of 14,000 vores. Their belief was well grounded. Here is one proof ; and dozens might be adduced. The late Hon. T. W. Anglin was one of the members of the L.béral Convestion which met at Ottawa in 1895, aod prepared the “Ottawa platform.” Mr. Anglin was opposed to tle plebiecite plsok. In the course of his speech egainst it he sad: “What do we mean to doif we ask for a pl-hise te? If we are hones’, should a mojurity be obtained in favor of prohibition, no matter how sma!!l the vote, the probibitionists would be entitled to demand that a_ pro- bibitory law shouid be enacted.” So there matter. The Liberal leaders were werued at their con- was no mistake about the vention. But they went on to grossiy and delivers'ely deceive tie temperence men of the country. Will the temperance men of the country condone the deception ? If they do, it wil realily be concluded that they have neither sprit, nor sense, nor sincerity ; aad their representatious will with greater contempt in the tucure thanin the past. But if they “ hit back” and that cannot be tricked with impunity, they will distinet- be treated show they ly strengthen sud improve their posi- tion. Ae tothe future action of the L’beral Conserrative party of Canada in this re- gard, that is a matter for the consideration of the leaders in Parliament. So far as we are concerned, we should be glad if the back and show their strength, the incom- party would at once come ont rquarely fer ench areasonatle law as woald preven: ‘the traflisin aicobolic lquors for bever- ages purposes, and allow it for medicin»l, aud sacramental mechanical parposes. Bat we mnst admit, every honeet man must admit, tha’ there are many rea-ons why the Libersl Cons rvative party soou'd pot commit iteeli .o a line of policy upon |which ite supporters are certain to be divid. d—until, at least, the prohibitioniste } have shown their sirevgth in a contest | between the parties.

Bat it the le mperance voters should show them, by the best of a1 practical der on- strations, that temperance se: timent bas eo tar edvanced that a prohidvitiwa law cou:d be carried into operation, they must aud wil ree tbe matter in « afferent ligut, —and way change their opision, Lhe temp-rance men of Cauada have a double interest tn unitediy bitting back at S r Wilfrid Laurieraod his supporiers.

The reais is that certain members of cert«in clubs are now discus-ing «mong themselves the advisability of forming a new club. In fact a pew one has been formed and their veudquarters bave been located on Grafton Stree. Th-rei« also some talk of the Abbies and Crescenis amalgamating Now thi: would be as graat idea, for if those two clubs were tojoin hands and go under one pame there is uO doubt but wat ibey would be the club of the provinces. No better materi! Could be got together in any chy for bicycling, bockey, football, “printing or anythivg pertaining to sport. Solirustibat the movement now anter way of awalgama ing those two clubs will Come toa speedy head, There will then be vo need of viherclubs forming In factthere are too many in exisience now, and ary mew oves are simply an necrseary and will amount to no ning. I hope therefure that those who feel in any way “sore” over any little diff rence which may have heretofore existed i: anv of the cluts will notbe foolish enough to show their aoimue oriry to throw cold water (hy forming new clubs or otherwise) on those Cubs which im the pase have cried and succeeded) io furthering the cause of gvod clesn sport; forcertain aa ihey do they will meet with wha: they jastly de- serve —score and defeat, Trve Sport.
