What the Law Says.

uk law says no alcholic liquors of any ki id shall be sold or given oD election day.

It says this because it is desirable that ail electors should act according to the diciates of their reason and conscience ov that day.

vers one admits that this is right !

Aud if it is right that the law should

there shall be no liquor ou election

day, is it not also right that the law

ould say that there shall be no liquor ou any other day of the year ?

Men should aci accordivg to their reason and conscience always. They cannot do so under the influence of

strong drink. Electors, what do you thiak? Answer by your votes to-morrow.

The Penal Clause.

Tie judgment of the Stipendiary Magistrate as to whether a violator of the law may be put in jail for a third offence against the provisions of the Canada Temperance Act is published in ‘ae Examiner te-day. His Honor is of opinion that the provisions of the Seott Act are not impaired or altered by the Liquor License Act, the intention of the Legislature being to have both acts

tact. So that a violator of. the Scott (ct may be imprisoned. Lis Honor’s judgmeot is clear and to the point, and well worth reading.

A Temperance Poem.

ELSEWHERE in to-day’s paper we pub lish a poetical production, headed ** Go feel What l Have Felt.” Almost forty years avo the writer of this, when a lad learning the printer's art, was given the ‘poem mentioned to he placed in type. | Phat lad, a few years previous, had fol jlowed tie dead body of his father, who |} went dowe to a draukard’s grave at the

‘early ave of thirty-six, having sacrificed busines», fortune, friends, and leaving a | }loving wife and four small, helpless chil

dren to the cold mercies of ‘the world

‘through a taste for iotoxieants. Like {hundreds of thousauds of British-born subjects, the father had acquired the |} drinking habit when in his boyhood. It | became so fastened upon him that, al {though he made mauy herculean efforts Ito throw the terrible habit off, he was /uvable todo so, aud he sunk to an un- honored grave. That lad while setting | the poem in type, felt that the words and | sentiments were the utterances of his own jmother. It was a complete history of her sufferings and her feelings, and from that day to this the poem has not been forgotten by the writer. It was a happy thought on the part of the person who | conceived the idea of sending the poem , broadeast, as a campaign document in ‘the pending Scott Act contest. Its jpathos aud ifs indignant indictment of | Kiog Alcohol, must appeal to the hearts of many a wife and mother in Charlotte- town.

At the time mentioned, at the begin ning of this article, the poem had_ been | soing the rouuds of the press of the con- tinent. It was then prefaced with a short account of the lady author, and the circumstances vuder which it was written. We are sorry that the particulars are not to be found, as the few harrowing details would tend to increase abhorreuce for the use and traffic in alcholic lifucrs. The Jady author, superinduced by her intense, mental and bodily sufferings, poured out her whole soul in the truly graphic poem, which tells the whole tale of mau s slavery to drink, and the fearful consequences to himself, wife, children, friends.

Aud there are those ia Charlottetown |who will vote in favor of the demon jalcoho]. There are fathers in town, 'whose sons may be seen regularly or oceasioually tipsy, who proclaim them- selves opposed to the Scott Act, seemingly forgetting that a rigid enforcement of the Act would save their sons, and that as good citizens they should give all aid

to the laws to suppress the traffic in intoxicants. The writer thanks God that he was

enabled to vote for the Seott Act, and | tree ts that when to-morrow comes he shall also be enabled to place his mark opposite the words ** Against the Petition,” on the proper voter's ballot. Every wite aud mother should pray that the husbaods and fathers of Charlottetown shall record their votes ‘‘ Against the Petition,” and the result will be that at least the next aud future generations shall be abstaiuers from the use of intoxicants.—Com.

Artesian Wells. |

Str,---The Scott Act is on trial, and the

| popular verdict will sustain it ; but there | ness.

are other ways of poisoning water than cor- | rupting it with drink-mixtures; other drains | ot the public health than drinking intext | cating beverages. There is a poisonous drainage, which insidivusly finds its way | into the bottoms of our wells, and preduc 8) disease; and as everybody in Charlottetown | is aware of the fact, probably the ‘Pump Act’ will loom up, after the rivets ere well | clenched on the Scott Act, and get a re-| forming fiat to conform to a more sanitary way of supply. Or, perhaps the water- reformers of Charlottetown may dream about the experiment of an _ arte- sian well. Why not? The _ feunt-! ains, in Trafalgar Square, Londor, Engiand, and the government oftices near have Leen supplied since 1844 by two of these wells 393 feet deep. At Paris the Grenelle well is 1,798 feet deep. It was completed in 1841, and the wall at Passy, begun in 1855, and completed in 1860, has a supply capacity suflicient for 500,000 pers ons. The London Horticultural Society's garden has such a wel!, which yields 880,000 gallons of water, at the tem- perature of 81 deg. fah., in every twenty- our hours. If water, plenty and pure,

i follows the firm establishment cf the Scott

Act, it will put more soul into the cause of temperance and other cleanly habits, than this city in the sea has experienced since her patron Saint Prince Edward tock the place of St. John.
