PR OVINCIAL PROHIBITION.

Tue Guardian does not—cannot—deny thut the “total prohibition” spoken of in | the “pledge” that is now being'distribuied is not “total prohibition” in the sense in the term ie commonly

which un

derstood; for tuch prohibitien not prevent the “importation” of liquors, | Yet The Guardian affects to be amazed at Tas Examiner's effort to give the people & clear understanding of the matter. It seems to be iffipessible for the Guardian to comprehend the idea of honest straightfor- ward dealing,when it is politic to hoodwink humbug. | Those who were present at the meeting know whether or not Tae ExaMIner’s statement concerning the size of the audi-~ ence was true. As for the declaration that Mr. Marshall was not so “happy” as at the Y. M. C. A. Hall, some months ago, when he exhorted the electurs present

to “‘vote them down” we referred not to the

style or matter of Mr. Marshall’s speech— Mr. Marshal! always speaks we!]—but to; the evident effect of his words upon the |

people. His straightforward manly ap~«

peal to the electors to “vote down” the |

traitors’ and “‘deceivers” was heard with |

an enthusiasm which his subsequent effort | did not evoke.

The Guardian had better stop question- ing the motives and pelicy of Toa Exsmrin~ The temperance men of the Province started it as a daily in the hope that the Scott Act would be upheld and drunkenness suppressed. The result is “license” and “increased drunken~

to itself. [t is playing a gume of humbug and deception oa behalf of the Liberals witt the ekill of a master; but the etfects of its play are not admirable.

Atthe conclusion of its article The} Guardian says :

‘*The one significant note of [nr Ex- AMINER’s article is its opposition to pro- vircial suppression of the trafliz, the one mfasure which the liqaor interest most fears, because it is possible, practicable, and may be near at hand,’’

To this we have to say that while THe EXAMINER would greatly prefer National

Prohibition, we should be disposed to sup- port the proposition of the Alliance if it| could be shown clearly and authoritatively that “ Proviocial Prohibition’ involves prohibition of the “importation” of liquors | as well as of their “ manufacture” and “sale.” Unless liquor can be kept out of the province, the province will be no bet» ter off under Provincial Prohibiiion” than under the Scott Act—which can be

applied at auy time.

FIGHT PAIR

Lord Methuen’s Message to The Boers.

Loxpvox, Nov. 28,—Statements concerns ing the treacherous use of the white flag, etc, are uncredible here ; but they are now contirmed officially by the protest of General Methuen, who has sent a message to the Boer commander, saying:—** I must ask you to warn your wounded not to shoot our officers. [I must warn vou not to use dum~dum bullets, or uee the flag of truce so treacherously. Such action is cowardly in the extreme and I cannot countenance it.”

Continuing Lord Methuen says :

“Tam acting quite fairly as your op- ponent. I refused to take with me two men from Kimberley who were inside the Kimberley laager because | believed by doing so 1 ehould be taking an unfair ad- vantage, seeing that they were on parole, although under conditions which have not been fulfilled by the Boer commander,”

Referring to dum-dum bullets, General Methuen says : “I bave 12 men in the hospital with wounds inflicted by dum-~ dume” In conclusion, he says:—“To

| place a white handkerchief on a rifle and

take advantage of your enemy is a coward- ly action, which neither you nor I can countenance,”

A wounded Boer, who was among the prisoners sent to Orange River, when asked

| what he thought of the British bayonet

charge, replieu, in a surprised tone, “Almighty. do you suppose I waited for that? ”

All accounts confirm the splendid charging of the British infantry, the Scots Guarda entering the fight with drums beating and fifes playing.

The second ridge was the strongest posi- tion. The Boersthere were sheltered be- hind ramparts of boulders. Nevertheless the ‘Stuards advanced steadily, many of them emoking.

—At Chicage,a few days ago, Professor W. H.Jobnson made a successful test ot wireless telegrapby. He succeeded in telegrsphing without wires through a suite of seven rooms, all doors closed, and through seven walis. Several tests were made with satisfactory results. The pro~ fessor claims that his invention is materi- ally different trom Marconi’s and that in struments can be constructed to be carried on horseback and to be ready for opera. tion in & few minutes after they have reached their destination.
