THE EXAMINER AND PROHIBITION.
With much that the esteemed Ex-
aminer has to say in reproof of the
Laurier governuient’s attitude on pro-
hibition we are quite in accord. W`e
are pleased to hui our contemporary
saying it would be glad if the Con-
gervaiive party would at once come
out squarely for such a reasonable law
as would prevent the traffic in alcoho-
lic liquors for beverage purposes. But
th6€xaminer admits there are many
reasons why that party cannot com-
mit itself to prohibition. Its sup-
porters would be certainly divided
"until the prohibitionists have shown
their strength in acontest between
the parties.” For this reason the Ex-
aminer would like to have the pro-
hibitionists “hit Sir Wilfrid and his
government,’ and hit them hard.
This position, although not legi-
cally very strong has a measure of
plausibility about it. It accords with
the views of the small portion of the
electorate who when they vote at a
federal election put prohibition first
and politics second. Unfortunately
the great body of the electors give
_ party the iirst place and great moral
questions the second place. The few
prohibitionists who are of the first
class just referred to would turn out
one government after another till they
obtained an administration that would
give them the law they ask for.
But to the Liberals A who are in
favor of prohibition the Examiners
proposals will sound something like
“this : “We are not for rohibition
. "\ . . P ’
neither are we against it. Our party
is divided. Even our advanced tem-
'perance men, the late Sir Leonard
Tilley and Thomas White, with Sir
Charles Tupper, Sir Mackenzie Bowell
and Mr. Foster, 'believe the time has
not come when prohibition can be en-
forced. Therefore we cannot make
any promises as to taking up prohi-
bition, but if you will hit Sir Wilfrid
and turn him out then we will con-
sider what we may do for you.”
That is the way it will naturally
strike the Liberals who are prohibi-
tionists. There is in the proposal too
much of a desire to hit Sir Wilfrid
and too little willingness to take up
prohibition. And as to other prohibi-

tionists-we mean those who are forl saparilla has no equal for rheumatisin It    S C  l  ' ~

l prohibition first and for party after-_l §f’;ii‘;?£I-3 i”~ha’§;’f€aI{=;’§_‘§_ thiifln M115; 05?"  g g _ _--
wards-the Examiner’s proposal has
too much of party and too little of
principle for them also. Clearly the _
"great opportunity” is for the Con-
servative leaders to squarely take up
prohibition now. In that case the
plebiscite vote can be made a
veritable millstone with which to
drown Laurier and his government
in the depths of the sea; But not
Jltherwise.
'The newly appointed Senator from if
’lOntario, Mr. Kerr, Q. C., announces _l
that he will oppose the re-distribution ;
bill unless the arranging of electoral
divisions is committed to acommissionl
'of judges. _This is the course long?
‘advocated by THE GUARDIAN and has
the support of British precedent. ` We
do not know that Mr. Kerr reads the
leading journal of Prince Edward Iu-
land, but he is fortunate enough to
see eye to eye with us in regard to the_
best course of effecting a just distri- I
bution of seats. A
It is announced that Sir James;
Winter will retain the Premiership of
Newfoundland until the end of this
‘olives the sei'vice:-
Twelve poor old men are selected for
the honor, and early on Maundy Thurs-
day they are brought from their homes
in courtcarriages by court oihclals, and
are taken to the palace* where they are
appropriately clothed in pilgrim’s_i'obes
Meanwhile, in the great reception room
of the palace are assembled the mem-
bers of the court. the drplouia'ic corps
and naval oth -ers, as well as represent-
'taives of the Viennese burghers and
working classes. The ‘aspostlcaf as
the twelve old men are styled, are
seated in a row on a raised pla!f0I‘¥11,
_ and court attendants then remove their
:hoes and stocsings. A fitting religious
_ service is being performed meanwhile.
and as it is drawing to a close the Em-
peror approaches the ‘aposta1s’ and
does for them what Jesus did for his
disciples nineteen hundred years asc in
Galilee. The word -washing,’ how-
ever, must not be taken in its literal
sense. The Emperor takes from a
golden basin presented to him by a
chauiberlaiu, a few _drops of water,
which he sprinkles on the feet of each
_ -apostle# and then wipes off. The per-
'formauce, which is alldone within a
deep impression upon the beholders

Missouri has taken a novel plan. Its
newly enacted law provides that
when a sheriff or other officer of the
law having in custody a prisoner be-
comes aware that a mcb is to attack
the prisoner and the oiiicer is unable
to defend him successfully, he must
give theman whom the mob is after
a thirty-eight caliber revolver and
fifty rounds of ammunition, and see'
that he; has every opportunity to de-
fend himself. Any odicer failing to
do this is to be punished” by a fine
and forfeiture of his oihoe. It is
argued in support of this law that the
individual’s right to defend his life is
sacred until after due _process of law
he has been found guilty of a capital
offense, and even then .he has a right
to defend his life against any attack'
except by the state. It is also felt-
‘that a prisoner who stands ready to
meat his would-be slayer with a
revolver and fifty rounds of ammuni-
tion would uot be so eagerly attacked
as an unarmed man.
