It seems We were in error in stating that the Ballot papers would be marked: For and Against the Petition. An amendment to the Scott Act of last year shows that the ballots will read as follows :- l"0ll T38 £87. X AGAINST THE ACT. Mark‘ your X as above. IN A NUTSHELL. Keep Before the People. -—-That the drunks arrested under three years of license here nearly equalled those of ten years under the Scott Act. --That in two cities in Massachu- setts which adopted. high license the number of drunks increased 4,000 in one year. -That as the Eanaminer says when a man got very drunk under license he was pitched into the,street. ...That as Sam Small says the big- gest fraud in 0od’s world to-dayis high license. —That the Eraininer said in 1886 um; “ high license in New York and the Scott Act here were both being violated and there is no, reason‘ why we should reject the latter and accept the former.” ‘ —-'l hat under license when our pop- ulation was nearly 50 per cent than now, we required sixteen police- men, and“ now we need only six. ‘ —That license sweeps away tl.e ground of moral appeal. - -That under license here, the Sti- pendiary says, the number of drunks was appalling; citizens coming into our city were assaulted at night with the evident intent at robbery. Hordes of street roughs thronged the street corners and women were not safe from open insult. _ —That iree rum against the law is I better than a legalized curse. —That we could not get license if we tried because the Legislative Council say they willnevervotefor it: wehavethereo fore had fair warning; and the issueis Scott Act it free rum. ——That in those counties in Ontario which repealed the Scott Act ten gal- lons of liquor are now sold under license to one under the Scott Act. —That as the Legislative Council- lors say, the Scott Act is the best law we have ever had. . —-That it is in better working order today. than ever before. , -That the hop beer nuisance hav- law» can be no more I defied , _ g _ - opfinic the women of the W 0. T. U. are now pro to enforce the -Scott Act if the men will only have public spirit enough to vote for it. —That this year the drunks only numbered 225, last year 306; and the Prosecutor was only at work six or , seven months. —That all the Easaminer-— the only paper that opposes the Scott Act- ever does to help it, is to sneer and in- sinuate, to create contempt for the law and sympathy for its violators. —That the Scott Act is the natural step from high‘ license to prohibition. —That to repeal it is to abdicate a position which cost weary years to gain. , —'l'hst the liquor dealers can not now make an appeal on behalf of vested interests. —That the liquor traflic ought to be made so odious that nobody but an infernal scoundrel will sell it, and no- body but an outcast-will drink it. —That the liquor trafic has been driven into the slums and outlawed from society. —'P|iat liquor drinking is now done by stealth and without our consent. —That the Scott Act has largely broken up the treating system, one of the worst features of drinking customs. —--That the law of man, is now like the curse of God—-against the liquor business. ‘ , - --That if oflences must come, and woe is pronounced upon those through whom the offence cometh, the electors who decline to become pqtners in the liquor traflic, will escape the threaten- ed punishment of God. —That the whole Province has been blessed by the Scott Act and Charlot- town has no right to make itself a curse to the country. —That the quantity of liquor con- sumed per head—of our ulation is now two-thirds of a gallon and it was one and three-fourth" gallons under license, morethan double. -—That under the Scott Act in the country the grass is growing green be- fore many a tavern door. —That in many settlements there are now no taverns at all. --That. as the. Examiner says, no sympathy is due to the promoters of of the Anti-Scott Act petition. ——That the city taxpayers have been relieved of the burden of —~ supporting l000 people annually in jail, and pay. ing salaries of 16 policemen. -_-_That as the Examirier said, before it Joined the rum party, "the yoga. are not now unsafe as they used to be by reckless driving of drunken men; and that the Scott Act has dealt. the liquor traflic in this Province a stag- gering blow. ., , —That Cardinal Taschereau, the high- est,Roman Catholic dignitary in Canada, the Presbyterian Synod. the Methodist Conference and the Baptist Association all endorse the Scott Act.

Ilyrne says most of the liquor dealers will give up the business of importing. f ‘ -—-That this is the liquor dealers last kick. -—-That even now, says the Emin- .’.;.-i?, there are signs of the solidarity of the liquor party being broken up. ——-That the man who votes to repeal the Scott Act dishonours the church and prefers to follow the teaching of the liquor dealers. -——That the man who neglects to vote will be regarded with suspicion. —That the Scott Act ems begiven a large majority because heretofore the liquor dealers have been trading on the silence of the professing Chris- -tian temperance;-freon who refused to vote. ‘ b . , .t Tbgti your A .,-up a ig insyiritv l .111 be nigini-..s'o sdhs-ce the Scott Act. —That the of the temperance people of Can and above all the eye of God, are upon us. _ .That as Mayor Haviland says, on the battle to be fought on the 8th of January, depends the future pros- perity, both moral and social of this my native city. , ’ —————o-«o--—-:—- . Announcement We have much pleasure in announ- cing that we have made arrangements, commencing with the New year, with a gentleman whose name stands high in the literature of Canada, to conduct a Literary Department in the columns of Tris Gnianias-to bedereted espec- ially to the literature This department will publhhed once each month, and the gentleman to whom it has been entrusted. and who’, by the way, prefers to remain anony- mous in order to favor independence of opinion, intends making it as - ‘ '..'‘..fi.‘i The department will contain an origi- .nal article, reviews of current litera- ture Indother notes on literary topics. We feel sure our readers will appre- ciate this new enterprise— the first of the kind ever attempted by a Mari- time Provincial journal. That the people of this Province are by no means deficient in literary taste we firmly believe, and are expecting this announcement to be followed by a large increase of subscriptions.
