GOOD TEMPLARS MEE”.
Unanimous Against the Government’s LicenseAct
The sixteenth annual session of the Grand Lodge of the [ndejeadent Order of Goo! Templars was held at Marray River on the Sth and 6th iust. The officers present were:
Grand Chief— Martin? McKinnon.
Grand Counseller—A D McLeod,
Graud Vice Counsellor—Miss Jrene McLeod.
Grand Secretary —A D Fraser.
Gravud Assistant Secretary—William McMillao.
Grand Superintendent of Juvenile Work —Mise A E Horton.
Grand Electoral Sugerintendent—W H Bears.
Grand Guard—R Sq arebriggs.
There were also presenta number of representatives from the subordinate and district ledges, past officers and visitors.
The reports of the officers show a small
falling off in the membership, while the wiate of the financee are better than last year.
” The Grand Lodge decided not to holda winter session, and the officers elected forthe ensuing year were direc ed to at-
tend the several meetings of the district " | lod ger.
A letter from the Grand Lodge of new Riunswick, was read notifying the P. E. Isjand Good Templars that the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick would meet at Shediac on the 18:h inst, that an extension would be made on{the 19th by the steamer Northumberland to Summerside, and that the officers of the Grand Lodge wished to co-operate with the P.E, Ie land Grand Lodge for the purpose of holding a pub- lic demonstrations and meeting in Sum- merside on the evening of the 19h.
The matter of the New Brunewick letter was concurred in, and a committee coa- sisting of Rev. John Goldsmith, Alberton,
Lockhart, St. Eleanore, was appointed to make the arrangements for the Summer- side meeting.
The committe on recommendations sub- mitted the following resolutions some of which were warmly debated, but a)! carri- ed unanimously :-—

3. As to what action we should take in

j we urge good Templar electors not to vote unless men are in the field who de- serve the support of temperance men.
4. Every person who has been educated
; to believe that the Government of Canada
is a Government of the, by the, and for the people must ‘ss disatiefie? with the dis- cision of the Federal Government in declin- ing to enact any measure of prohibition, when such a large number of voters asked for the same at the plebiscite elec- election in September last, and if this de- ceptive way of treating electors ia to be continued people will be slow to trust any mao or party,
>. The action of the authorities in granting tothe Scott Act violater, John G. Scrimgeour,s bonded warehouse iv bis own c:llar, deserves the censure of every law abiding citizen.
6. Toat this Grand Lodge in anvual session assembled reaffirm without the slightest yualification,the principles deciar- ed in 1852 as contained in the second plank of the Gcod Templar platform, to wit: ‘No! license in avy form; under any circumstan- } ces, for the sale ot liquors to be used as a / beverage,” and we consider .he action of the Local Governmeatin placing upon the statue books (by a small fraction over one third of the legislators) a license law for the city of Charlottetown, to be the great- est blow that could be given tothe temper- ance reform at this particniar time, and every membes who voted for that measure deserves to be treated as an enemy of prohibition.
eventh.—We commend The Guardian pewspaper for its maserly defence of our priociples, and standing by what we be- lieve to be the best interests of the temper- ance reform.
Eigh..—We urge upon our friends in Charieitetown to re-enact the Canada Tem- perance Act at the earliest possible date, so that this blighting treffic in intoxicating ] quor will again be an outlaw ia the whole ot our fair provioce.

DRUNKENNESS AND THE SCOTT ACT.

Sir,—The Guardian of the 6h inst., | had « leader headed, **A Delusion,’’ where- in he comments on the amount ¢f druok- , enness On Our streeis during the past few | days. It istrne enough that thefe is too | much drunkennesa onourjstreets thesedays; | but, it was pot the fireman or licease law that was the causeof it. There was a gieat | ‘many strange people about, the big steam. er was in, aud there were some youths home from Dorchester Penitentiary that were sent there the time of the Scott Act. There were alse three or four that gotout) of jail on Monday jevening eveuing, after being confined for bouee~breaking and rob- | bery and acquitted by the jury. Nojes doubt when these fellows met, (and being | at liberty once mere) they must have a; “time;” aod thinking perhaps that the | Scott Act washere ;et they thought they | ceuld carry on as they used to, and hit | every one they met. But there were mistaken. The police live in the city nuw, apd there are two new men on the force that bave not their clothes with the yellow buttons on yet. They are fast runners too, so it is no use to try to escape, now. But when we had the Scott Act, I saw thera strevched eut, dead druuk, on the street on Sunday andthere would be no sign of a polieman. They, I suppose, would be at Cape Traverse, Covehead, Canoe Cove, Little Hell or some other far away place serving summonses or sub- peenas for Scott Act. Lsee that Westmor- land County, N. B, is going to try and do away with the Scott Act. I should think it is fulltime they would do something. They are, I suppose, new twenty years, tinkering at the Scott
