Score Another Success
Last Night-Conclusive
Argumentsfor the Cause
of Temperance-Reasons'
Why a National Prohibi-
tory Law Can be Enforced.
_ Another grand success was scored
by the Ptobihitionists at the meeting
last night in the Opera. Despite the
oppressiveness of the weather the audi-
torium was comfortably filled.
Mayor Warburton presided- and' made
a few well chosen remarks. He was
supported on the platform by Premier
Farquharson. Rev. G. M.Campbell,Mr.
Seaman the President of the Plebiscite
Association, Hon.David Laird, Mr.Wm.
Boyivnndvther gent-lemon, White-inany
other prominent business men had seats
in the auditorium.
In his opening remarks the Mayor
spoke highly of |the addresses of
the series aiready delivered and stated
that the topics of yesterday evening’s
effort were those which called for most
attention in the present discussion.
Miss \Valton sang a sweet little bal-
lad. °-A Rosebud Kissed by the Dew,”.
which :delighted the audience and in.
rtsponse to a recall, exhibited the
rich deep tones in her pure contralto
in the well known “Mi.1pah”. After
the address she sang very tenderly
the dreamy “Lullaby my Baby.”
As it is the intention of the Plebiscite
Association lo publish a very extended
report of Mr. Buchanan’s address, we
will give but n. brief synoposis at this
time. Although he warned his audience
that the subjects to be treated did not
tend themselves to eloquence and
rhetoric, there was not a dull moment
in the hour and a half which he
occupied. It is`not too much to say
that he utterly, demolished all the ob-
jecticns raised to prohibition on the
score of revenue, and that ina most
reasonable, gcntlemanly manner,
entirely freejrom extreme or sweeping
statements.
lle opened up by rtpuiiialing the
suggestions that temperance reformers
had abandoned moral suasion and
unlertaken to make men sober by Act
of ParlTament. Ile pointed out that the
philosophy of thc reform, had been the
szvne from the beginning, and that the
nim was in ie educzre society and carry

SURPRiSESQAPislhsnam¢-
MR. W. W'. BUCHANAN.
of this great work we had come upon a
time when thc strength of the evil lay I
in a powerful tiallic entrenched behind
custom and law and it was the immedi-
ate demand of the Reform that this
lratlic which is the source ol the
miech’cf, and the chief obstacle and
further progress should be outlawed
and repressed. It was the great aim
of the cause ti win to the
side of virtue those who had conscience
and heart, and by prohibition it was
only proposed to restrain those who -
have neither. I
He analyzed the statement that seven
millions went into the public ti l from
strong drink, marking that it came out
ofthe pockets- of the taxpayers, lessen-
ing their ability and capacity for paying ,_
pat upo q s c e pur
poses than for drink and reduced the
sum to less than four millions, without
figuring out a single dollar of indirect
cost. He than showed by a number ef
actual ex riences in the financial '
the necessity of direct taxation was tle
merest buncomhe. He painted a glow-‘
ing picture of the industrial boon, and
commercial iposperity that would fol-
low the turm g of the forty millions
now spent directly for drink into the
legitimate channels of trade. and the
enrichment ofthe treasury consequentn
upon this increased trade, and estab-
lished what seemed to be an incontro-
vertihle casesfoifsustaining the proposi-
tion he set out with, that there would
not be the loss of a single dollar, to the
revenue by the enactment and enforce-
ment of proiibilion.
In the discussion of the question of
“enforcement” he incidentally paid a
high compliment to the press of the
province, and congratulated the Prohi-
bitionists upon the powerful backing
they had in a clean, honest, fair and
favorable fourth estate, “unawed by in- ,
fluence and unbirbed by gain,-” and the-
period was warmly applauded. He did
not approve of loading up the law book p
with statutes, and believed there was I
far too much legislation. As 2. deme-
cratic people. we had gone to seed in the
line of legislation. lt should be a ques-
tion of getting a new condition in so-
ciety, not a new law in the
statute book. Law should only be a
means to an end. We had tar too much
law now upon the liqntr question, ard
law which was not respected. but was
frequent ly and ilagratillv violatttl. lt
was high tin_e we subs'ituN=d for the
mass ot' legislation lumbering up the
staiuta books, something mo c simple

ttion, What it Effective Enforcement? in
a -very satiefictory fashion, showing
that it is not necessarily the ecedication
. of an evil but its reduction to the lowest
possible minimum.
Mr. Seaman, the President of the Al
liince. promised the people a rare _treat

famous fable lecture, ‘-An Evening
