G. W, Ross will introduce a strong tcmpcr- nncc measure along the lines of pro hibition, and then appeal to the elect- orate. By this, they say, he hopes to retain power for another term. It is Well known that Mr. Ross has for many years been a strong advo- cate of curtailing the liquor traffic, and he has assisted in fl‘llllllng much useful legislation to restrict the sale and purchase of strong drink. Some extreme temperance workers seem to think that the Premier moves too slowly, ‘but he has been right in con- tending that he cannot go too far in advance of public opinion. We would not be surprised, ho“u Ever, to learn that there is something: more than rumor in the reports now going, and even from a political point of view it might be a good stroke. Hon. G. W. Ross has got little support from brewers, distillers and those engaged in the business of buying and selling, and he need ex pect little from them in the future. We are not sure that even if he in- troduces the strictest measure in the power of the Province to give that he will gain the assistance of many temperance men on the opposite side 6'? politics, but it will at least show Where many stand when they have lo choose between temperance on the one side, and party on the other. There must be a strong tempcrv ance wave passing over the Province ivhen a town like Toronto Junction, with a number of hotels just outside the corporation, can carry Local Op- tion by a good majority. There is little doubt that in many cases the hotel-keepers can thank themselves fora change in public opinion. Few towns in Ontario would bother their heads about Local Option it the Licensed Victuallcrs would submit to the provisions of the present Li- cense Law. Occasionally an hotel- kcepor can be found who strictly ob- Serves the law relative to Saturday nights and Sundays, and will do his best in preserving order and decorum in and about his house, but many others will make a doiliu‘ whenever they can, and they allow a lot of latitude to those who are inclined to be boisterous and insulting.

Now, one rt-asun why the \Tilncss. like the Journal, does not, lose lilwl suits is that its intentions are hmwsl and fair; it. will neither do nur porsist. in any conscious or wilful injustice: nor, if :iccidi-nt‘y wrong. hesitate to make anu-nds: and if a. libol suit. gets as far as the courts it is likely to ho because the \‘Vitnoss is right.â€"Ottawa "Journal." 7 The “ Shareholder " says: “ The ro- sultof the suit of Mills against tln- \Vitness is a triumph for honest jour- nali<m. Actions for lll)t‘l \Vlll‘ll‘ thorn is no malice are simply (-ll'orts to gag the press. There urn newspapers which suppress the [111th in the fear nl' proceedings fOl'lllN'l or else of ul- fcnllingon advertiser. Papers of the stamp of the \Vitnt-s‘s will not stoop to such‘ considerations. and those should receive lhe heartiest support from the public.” There is no Metropolitan newspaper more respected and appreciated than the Montreal Witness. no- M apl e All who attended the Library con- cert last Friday evening were woll pleased with the programme and every number was well received.
