It will be necessary to obtain lgislation in order to bring about this prohibition. ee ‘“PROHIBITON" HEARD FROM. Sirn,—There appears to be a good deal of controversy going on between the two dailies upoa the prohibition qnestion, especially as to who is right and who is wrong in re the publisbiog of the Execu- tive Committee’s report in full of the branch of the Dominion Temperance Aliiance meeting held in the Y. M. C. A. ha'l on the 30 h March last. I, asa mem- ber of the Alliance, and one who was pre sent at the meeting, can youch for the correctnesss of the repr. When the President of the Alliance read the report of the Executive Committee it was received with great applause. Ic was unanimously resolved that the re~ port be published in full in the Guardian newspaper. The report was sent over to the Guardian cffive that same night fer pub- lica ion. I wated severai days to ee the report come out iv the Guardian, but upto the preeert time the Guardian has not nublished that report in full. Tbe Satur- day after the Alliance meeting they pub- lished a synopsis of the meeting, giving the names of the new officers and the resolutions pass2d. The daily Patriot of | Saterday evening published the Morning Gaardian’s report of the meeting almost verbatim. Up to this day neither the Patriot nor the Guardian has published the report of the Alliance in full. I cannot.eee why these two pronounced Liberal temperance papers should refuse to pub ish the report in full. There was nothingin it but facte, and facts are stubborn things. The report quoted some of the speeches made Americans Lose Officers and Men iN TRYING TO DISLODGE THE INSURGENTS. The Insurgents Made a Stubborn Stand Before Retreating. [SreciaL To Toe Examiner] Mavita, April 24 —¥oar men of the Nebra-ka Rog ment, includ og Colonel Stobenberg and Lieut.
