Temporary delay is certain in any event, and, provided the Commission is properly constituted with loyal party iriends, it may be shelved in- definitely. When the Saunders Gov- ernment was hard pressed a year ago by the Teachers Federation this pol- icy was resorted to, proving a very present help in time ol trouble, and in the outcome, remarkably success- lul in postponing the evil day still larther. Nothing is going to happen provided the teachers remain corn- pla and quiescent, until the Saunders Government go to the country illteen or eighteen ‘h hence; then it is to be leit to their ' successors to solve the problem. Apart lrorn the m ‘ lanation one marvels why all this ccessary expense should be incurred, all the scurrying to and iro oi the r. ‘ sioners, all the reams o! evidence, all the as pages ci printed report, simply to confirm and iustily the attitude and action oi the Teachers Federa- tion, and thento leave it to the tax- payers themselves to say whether they will consent to be farther taxed to increase the teachers salaries. Ol course there are other recom- mendations, but they are all more or less continleilt 9n the result o! the proposed plebiscite proving satislsc- tory. and are not worth while con- sidering apart from the main sub- ject cl the report. As the Saunders Government must lace the electors belore the Cc ‘ sion's report is considered as practic- llpoliticmweareairatditwilllfi with them into the limbo o! discard- ed things. . Meanwhile the Saunders Govem- ment has got an extension ot its breathing space, the teachers an ex- tension ol their "hope deterred," the taxpayers an extension ol their im- munity from "d taxation, and the Commissioners an increased rep- utation as shrewd politicians of the first water.‘ a Progress in Temperance The progress towards “true tem- perance" under the Saunders admin- istration was strikingly shown by Dr. Maclilillan during the course oi his remarks on the Drsit Address on ' Monday niternoon. Dr. MacMillan had belcre him an extended report oi the Premier's memorable utter- ances oi lest Thursday. He. had also copies o! the Patriot iyles covering the legislative sessions oi l02ii_'and ‘i020. From these he quoted, show- ing, in the Premier's own words, the manner in which the Government hm kept lalth with the electors on - the specific Dililk on which it driited into power. , 1n the Legislature in ms. the Pre- he was "convinced that this Province. being an island mo.

Then came the “reve1atlon" cl which the Premier delivered him- sell last week. Conditions, it seems, “have been intensified a. hundred iold, yes, a. thousand icld, to what they were a lew years ago, The operators in the booze business are resorting to every imaginable thing. we have mocnshiners and bootleg- gers in every Province, hut I re- member only a lew years ago o! reading lor the first time ol those stills in our Province. That thing has grown and grown greatly. The same with ‘bootlegging. It has l grown, and the methods they re- l sort to are almost beyond the com- prehension ol man, and it is ex- tremely dlllicult now to cope with \ conditions." ' And the conclusion, according t. Premier Sounders, is that/the Gov» ernment “is making a great success oi it"; In the lace o! suchanaive as- surance, loliowing confession’ oi un- precedented ‘ competence and mis- management, what can one say‘. Only that the intelligence that can draw such a conclusion from such premises can hardly expect to win ents endowed with the almost super- human resourcelulness which he at- "tributes to them; and that, in the public interest as well as in his own, he would do well to devote bimsei! t: other and more congenial r blenis. Editorial Notes Won't those teachers who "bolted the Federation at the critical junc- ture now be sneer-atoll The Teachers Federation were not lar wrong when they claimed a po- iitical Commission would be worse than useless. The Legal expenses o! the Pr-ohlbi tion Commission lor the last hail year amounted to $1,300.20, and the witness lees to ma. st this rate some $3,700 is being paid lawyers per annum and $1,500 to witnesses. 'For the hall year ended December 3i. the Prohibition commission earn- ed $35,253.58, $18,006.25 olwhichccn- sisted o! nnes and court expcmc-‘l. $200 irom the sale oi a confiscated car, and $16,367.23 from the sale ol liquor. ’ A commendable trait in _Premier Saunders is his unvarying courtesy to the press. During the present ses- sion as on other occasions he ‘has been scrupulous in this regard, and his example is followed by the Clerk and oilicisls ol the House. The s. ,. a "expenses" o! the Prohibition commission lor the last hall year totalled $1,088.21 or at the rate cl $3,800 per annum, while "traveiilnc Ilbonsea" came to MM. or $020 per annum. Besides these ‘travelling expenses" there was $17.20 car license, 0102.05 lor gasoline and oilfand tssssa loi- repairs tc cars. a rt is hated from a return brought down in the Legislature at the in- stance oi Mr. tlcbure that the Gov- ernment received $21,011.18 "blood money" irorn the Prohibition Oom- rnisaoin last year, and the ‘romper- ance Alliance siaoc or the-occurred icon. n it‘ any mica: u» Alliance remains somplaeantmiesr the ecc- ditions outlined by Rev. m. gnaiins and Premier saudeua when it pinata at tnejaatacrtino per intethr ‘surely thy is». totes By The Way,‘ an; Jacobs.
