Over in 'New Brunswick, in ad-

dition to the Scott Act in force in a majority of the counties, there is a prohibited strip of territory extending .five -miles on each side of the Transcontinental Railway under construction in that Pro- vince. 'l‘his strip of ten miles wide runs through two counties which are not under the_Scott Act but the law for the .preservation of the peace in the vicinity ci public works under course of construction forbids the sale of liquors. In this connection it is to be observed that the men who are in the liquor trade over .there have no more regard for one kind of liquor legislation than another. . There have been several murders_and one or more men hanged ,as the result of the whiskey trade along the works, but .the law is still viola-
