Larch, Mr. J-ihu Reid of Con-ville to Miss Della McConnell of Richmond Hi'l. Public Meeting“. A meeting in the interests of the Prohibition Plebiseite was held in the Masonic Hall on Monday evening of this week. The hall was comfortably filled, and those present. seemed deep- ly interested with the speeches deliver- ed. Mr. J. A. E. Switzer occupied the chair and made some good introduc- tory remarks, after which he intro< duced to the audience Rev. \V. Frizzell, Presbyterian Minister, To- ronto. Mr. Frizzell upon rising said he agreed with the chairman that every man who had a vote should use it on the 29th inst. If he thought that pro- hibition would be a. good thing for Canada he should vote Yes, but if he thought otherwise he should vote No. The Government desired a fair ex- pressioii of opinion, and they were enâ€" titled to it. This was the. first chance ever given to a country as a whole to voteon Prohibition. and men should makeng use of their opportunity. Probably it will be. the only chance the present voters will ever get. Said the speaker, we, do not want a snap Vote, we do not want a prohibitory law if it is not well backed up by public opinion. He was not here to say hard things about men in the. traffic, what he attacked was the traflic itself. Mr. Frizzell next took up Principal Grant’s position on the question showing that the Dr. was not voicing the Presbyterian church which was standing shoulder to shoulder with the Methodist church. The General Assembly has passed a resolution in direct opposition to Dr. Grant‘s views. Prohibition in Maine was referred to. After a trial of 30 years the people, were strongly in favor of the act, and although there Wei 0 difficulties to c: intend with the law was on the. whole a success. Prohibi- tion in Canada could be more easily enforced than local option, although the U. S. boundary line will require. to be closely guarded. The question of revenue he considered a small matter, as although some. $8,000,000 may be lost in one way, $10,000,000, the annual cost for strong drink, will be saved. Farmers need not be afraid of the. cider question. as if prohibition carries they can make and dispose, of sweet cider as at present. Spirits will not be interfered with for mechanical, medicinal or sacramental purposes. In conclusion the speaker asked the voters present to consider well before giving;r encouragment to a traffic that is a fruitful Source of misery and crime. In moving and secondiug a. vote of thanks to the speaker, which was ir- namiously carriedJievsdi‘lessrs. Large and McCulloch made short and effec- tive speeches, urging upon all the necessity of doing their duty in the present crisis.
