Srvecrk Corrs Twe Cents VOL, 28.—NO, 20 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Liguor Trafic. Srr,-—lt is high time that something should be done in order to regulate the liguer traftic in Charlottetown. No one can ignore the havoc this traflic must cer- tainly make in the course of time, if per mitted to continue without restraint. If or citizens are persuaded to this, then it is their sacred du'y to adopt every legiti- mate means in their power to avert the coming danger, and, consequently, if ef- fective legislation can be obtained for the purpose of curtailing the tratlic as much as pessille, no citizen should deny his sup- pett to such legislation, but should en- deaver to lend it his hearty support. Now, as the local parliament wil! meet in the course of a few days, I think it pro- per that, under the present existing cir- ture, not only with regard to the persons to whom # license might be granted, but also reepeczing the quality of liquors sold. Fur a great many of the so-called beverages which are now sold, if permitted, serve only as a general term for the more intoxi- eating liquors. “As a matter of course, the advocites of the Scott Act will disagree with mo on this point; but I fail to see wherein they should complain. It is evident that the that during its existence the number of liquor shops had almost without number increased and multiplied in our locality Hence, there is no wonder that our citi- zens, becoming alarmed at the existing state of affairs, had voted for the repeal of the Act, with the hope of obtaining more efficient legislation under the form of a li- cense law, as described abuve. And, verily, if we institute a comparison between the extent of the traffic as it was under the Scott Act and as it is at present, vary little difference, if any, ia discernible, at least so far as effects are concerned, not- withstanding the fact that the town and eeantry were of late in an almost continual state of political turmoil, of which whiskey has become of late years so powerful a confederate. For example, during the month of May of the present year tne num- ber of convictions for drunkenness and dis- order was 22. This is under the system of free rum. During the same month last yer the number for the same offence was 3—thus showing a smaller number under free rum than under the Scott Act. Now, ateveryone should admit, if the increase o* decrease of disorder follows the increase of decrease of drunkenness, is it not evi- dent that even without any restrictive law we are in no worse condition than when tlie Act was in force? There can, there- ; be no deubt as to the legitimate con- n of the above comparison, that is, that the Scott Act, as it was .in Char- |i lottetown, was a dead law and if the pre- sent system of free rum should be abolish- ed—and it should certainly be abolished — for the same reason the Scott Act rightly deserved abolition, for their effects were one and the same. Seeing, therefore, the moral danger to which many of our citizons are exposed, should not our perliament come to the rescue and enact a law which would at i traffic? A license law, I admit, will not completely abvlish drunkenness. Nor does it pretend to do so. But it is certain that, if properly. framed, it--vill do as much as it pretends it can do. It will at least lessen the number of drinking dens; it will compel iicensed tavern’ keepers to close their houses at sessonable hours; it will remove many stumbling blocks which cause the destruction of our citizens, and thus the tiatfi: will be placed more directly under the hand of the law, This is more than the fice rum system can effect, and it is equally certain that the Scott Act never etiected it in this city although it made higher pretensions. But, as far as our wel- fare is concerned, it is not by what a law pretends to achieve that we are to judge it, but by what a law does actually achieve, and oonsequently, since we know from experience that during the existence of the Scott Act in our city, the number of liquor shops has annually increased, and it is only reasonable that our local Legislature should give us a license law as a more efficient means of remedying the evil. It may perhaps be agued that if the civ-c representation were reformed the Scott Act would achieve that which it was calculated to achieve, I admit that civic reform is necessary in order io give a fair representa- tion to the city, but even in this case the Scott¥Act would fail to afford an efficient remedy, (1) because a majority of our citizens has already decided against the Act, and if they foliow togically, they would decide against a city council that would iavor the Act; (2) because even if they should elect a council in favor of the Act, there are too many loop-holes inthe Act itself by which the guilty are permitted to evade the law, thus rendering the Act useless, For we know by experience that out of ten or twelve pro- secutions for the violation of the Act, the ordinary number of convictions did not exceed two or three. But again it will be said that thy passing of a license law is the same as advocating an evil. In answer, it may be said with as much propriety that to deny a license law is also the same as to advecate an evil, and a reater evil than would be incurred under a iceuse law. For by denying the city ® license law, permission is practically given to any and every citizen, without discrimination of character, to sell intoxicating liquors—to sell by day, to sell by night, to sell to drunkards and rowdies of every d2scription, while on the contrary, if a proper license law were enacted, the authorities would be careful not to grant a license except to careful re. sponsible persons who could safely be trusted lf, therefore, we stsnd face to face with two evils, one or the other of which, under the cireamstances, is inevitable, is it right that we should choose the greater evil in order to avoi ] the lesser? It is therefors to be h»ped that our local representatives will not over look the importance of having a stringent license law passed, by which the citizens of Charlottetown may be delivered from the dangers which for the past few years have “tis needed. are all ings. report business good.
