HON. IllR. FISHEITS DEFENCE.

During the ilcbaie on the address iii the Commons Hon. Sydney Flﬁlltﬁl‘ inn-die a. defence of the govei iiintiiit for ltlli-ll‘ iicrion in ii-fusing proliibit-ion.It [is ivorthy of some attention because lMr. Fi-lici- has bccii a lifeicmg tom- ‘ periince man and pFOlIllJll.lL>IIlSl, and being also n. lllill‘ of good Llbllliltéi, his is probably the best-defence tlzut could be putt forivz-ird.

After deﬁning what a. plebhcitie is he proceeded to deal wit-h the charge that the government. had deceived the people. It had been said that the temperance people had not asked for a. plebiscite but Mr. Fisher argued that if they had not done so in ‘the ﬁrst instance the Dominion Alliance had afterward sent a delegation to the Premier in regard to the form of the question to be presented to the electors, and they had ' the question submitted in the way they desired, for which Mr. Spence on their behalf had returned the thanks of the Al- liance.

Mr. F islier proceeded to argue at some length that: the vote was insuli- cienb to war-mun the government in proposing a prohibitory law. His ar- gument i.a.-_is no! iieittei‘ than Lliei-l. of the many who have before canvassed this ground, but. he threw the entire weight; of his inﬂuence and judgment. age-nus; the enactment of a. prohibitory law at present». “I say this,” said Mr. Fisher, "and I say it emphatically that it would be a folly, and it would no}: be consistent with the good gov- ernment of this country, rzr with the duty which this gdvernment; owes to the people, if on the vote as expressed in the plebiscite, this, government were to undertake t0 put into force ii proliibitory liw.” These are lht‘ words of a man, the foremost; prohibi- tionist in the Liberal party as Hr. Foster has been in the Conscrwitive ";;~ii't;;,i.~'..=i) has apjpr-irencly reached the like conclusion with Mr. Foster that it is only "in a inomcnt-cif ue-"iknr-s-t" that politicians can contemplate the total suppression of the liquor trafliﬁ by liiw. So does inc-ifs belief in pro- hibition begin to waver and weaken when they are entangled in the me-ihes of party politics.

Mr. Fisher cites as a. warning the case of the prohibitory law passed in New Brunswick “a. few years ago” as he puts it, though it was really forty- six years since. And he ought to know that conditions have changed very greatly sincethen. who called for the prohibitory law in New Brunswick were nearly all men to whom the drinking habit". had been the custom of their lives. A great, wave of rcform had swept over the country and they embraced tee- totalism lVhen they got. prohibition a. reaction set in, and the law was speedily swept away. The temper- ance sentiment was not then estab- lished as it is now, when a. generation has grown up, a large proportion of whom have been abstainers from their youth. ‘

Mr. Fisher in pursuing his defence was able to cite some names of well- known temperance men wno do not; think the plebiscite vote sufﬁcient to warrant the enactment of a- suppres- sive law. In this regard it is to be observed that the central and west- ern privinces are much less advanced "in smpcrance and prohibitoiy senti- menr. than the maritime pl‘0Vlll06.\',3iUl_l the Miiiistn- of " Agricui- ure might. reaciily ﬁnd in the xix-st authorities of somc sbe riding oven in thcpulpit. who would not only tiondemniiprohibition but even total abstinence as well.

iu Quebec. Mr. Fisher contends that the largo majority given in that. province against prohibition was an i-Xpllfﬁ-Jhlilll of tho liomsb sentiment of the people. It was true that the contrary had been asserted, and a sworn statement of the wholesale frauds had been made by one Mr. Parent, alleging that hundreds of lYtLllOtS marked against prohibiiion liiid been put in the boxes after the polling day.

Sin -As a coupl- ol icinii have ap- peared in your paper in reference to basket and pie socials "and other dic- cing parties” denounced from the pulpit of Mermaid Church by Rev. D. McLean, a few words further uienccessaryn lVhy who Rot. gintlemau should have seen ﬁt to refer to socials w. that particular tint-z we do not know.

Thrr- wiis but one gsitherirg o! that nature held here this winter. a Parlor

[places and statements of the number of votes. Bub it was all untiue; Parent". wias a. liar and a. fraud and had since ﬂed the country to escape punishment. This was the most elfect-iire point scored by Mr. Fisher. Scanning his speech carefully we gather that Mr. ‘Fisher-Q view is that the temperance people may content themselves with the Scott Act; pretty much as it is, so far as thevgovernmenr. is concerned. He gives no hint that local option by provinces will be con- cided. 'l‘liis will be a second dlSfip- pointnient to those whom the govern- mrnt had sorely disappointed before.

T he elceiincd Examiner is st-iil

exercised because it alleges that. "tem-

periince and prohibition matters have lately token a. seicond place in THE GUARDIAN.” It is the old, old story of the mote and beam. Dear Exam- iner l “First cast". out thebeam out if thine own eye. and then shalt th »u

see clearly to cast- tne mote out; of thy brothers eye.” In the name of _a.ll that. is abstinentiwhal has the Exam- iner done for either temperance or prohibition l

A new stamp tax is proposal by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to be imposed on all foreign and colonial bonds sold or transferred in the United Kingdom. Without being so termed it will be, in reality a contribution to the defence of the Empire, for it is unquestionablythe large expenditure for defensive purposes thahhas caused the imposition. The colonies will not greatly object, and may enjoy the grim irony of making foreigners con- ‘tribute to Britaink military and naval outlay.
