As there has been some talk rel- ative to purchasing a new lot and erecting a new Public School building it would be a good idea to get the views of the trustees at the nomina- tiou' meeting. R'wmioxn HILL. Omu DEC. surprise is often expressed in some quarters that so much money is spent. in the village and so little to show for it. If any ratepayer will read carefully the Treasurer’s statement published this week he will come to the conclusion that a large amount of money is spent every year that can- not be avoided. ' Every citizen who takes an inter- est in the welfare of our village should attend the nomination meet- ing in the Lorne Hall to-morrow, Friday. evening. If you are not set isfied with the way the money has been spent make yourself heard. And if you do not understand the statements ask for an explanation. A writer in the Markham Sun last week gave nine reasons why he thinks that Markham Village should pass Loeal Option \on the first of Jan- uary. His ninth reason -is given as follows:â€"-â€" “We are for Local Option because we do not forget the scenes of Mark- ham Fair day this fall. If the citi- zens could have voted within two .weeks of that Friday, not forty people would have dared to vote for the Bar and its work. Then don’t forget Markham Fair. Also keep in mind that within two weeks certain things transpired which interested parties have tried to hush up, saying, ‘If this gets out, Local Option will carry sure.‘ Let these affairs be known and then you go and vote against the Bar and for Local Option."

[911 SHALL WE RETURN TO LlCENSE? Asa humble member of our little community allow me, Mr. Editor. to any a word in appreciation of the man- ly stand taken on the temperance question hy the Rev. E. C. Currie as expressed in hisWecenb' well-timed let- ter in THE LIBERAL. ' On this, the most important qnes Lion of the hour» the Rev. gentlenmn has certaian placed hnnself erect. along side the stalwart. advocates of Moral Reform. I_L is plensing to know ‘unvl . .

Mr Editor, any agitation in connec- tion with the welfare of our little town is a matter of interestifiu me. no u .uuvvv. I came to this village when ten years of age. My life’s activities have been mixed up with the history of its past, especially on the tvmperance question. Many years ago that- saintly mun of God, Rev. James Dick, tWent‘y eight years pastor of our Presbyterian church; Amos Wright. Esq.. M. P.

Am‘i what had nun-nu. .v. v..- V“ we to face? There were then in our Village seven hotels betWeen Elgiu Mills and the road to (lax-rville. Previous to the Railway Era Yonge Street was the main artery of travel from the north to the Toronto market. These hotels did a rushing business. aided by local consumption in the sale. of intoxicating drink. Every hotel had its “Old Guard.” a cuterie of profess- ional hulnmers whu seemed to he al- ways thirsty. No busineSS man could enter a hotel in those days and be con- sidered courteous unless he treated all bands, including himself and the land- lnrd. Tth treating was in its glory. and drunken men reeling to their homes a, daily exhihitinni. 4 -r »â€" AKA unulco a, uuu, u ............... We had at that time six stores and groceries, and they all scld whiskey. In those days it was not considered possible to run a mercantile establish- ment of any kind without at good stock of that popular article always on hand. It was sold wholesale at fif|y cents a, gallon and retailed by the quart and pint to almost every home in the village. Then no barn raising, loggin bee party, birth, wedding or funera. could come. off without intox- icating drink being one of its most in- dispensable featnres. At our “\Vest End" a. Distillery was run. with its fires blazing night and day to supply the ever increasing domain}. , ,.1_ L.

When the Railway Era. set. in and the Northern. now the Grand Trunk. was built, traffic along Yunge Street greatly decreased. One hotel after anotherdisappeared uniil they were reduced more than half. The “Old Guard" retired, and the Disnillery fires went out. .. .. .n 7 LL__ urva wruu uuv. In 1874, as Reeve of the village, the 1 writer signed the last two applications for shop licenses. For seven nnd thir- ty years there has been no whisky sold by any merchant of our town. The Temperance cause his continually in- creased in sentiment and vigor. until in 1906 Local Option was adopted bv :I, good umjoritv. 'Since then intoxica- ting liquor has not been sold unless in violation: of the law. The legal traffic in strong drink with all its baneful influences has happily ceased to exist among us, we hope forever. It has left sud meni- 'ories behind it and we have had on: share of trugicnl results many of which might be given. for in this ‘ dreadful business history often repeats ; itself. painful memories enough sme- ly to cause an intelligent community who are supposed to be governed by the lawe of temperance principles and guided by religious instruction. indi- vidually and collectively to pause and consider before they again give legal authority to a, business fraught with such terrible results. 1 .,:Ir_ Nearly six years ago we adopted Lo- cal Option. Since then we have never hnd a calamity resulting from strong drink. Under the. old regime our Fair on the 24th of May seemed to be the dumping ground of all the local deo pramty within reach. The days would frequently wind up with drink- ing, fighting and profanity that Would disgrace humanity. Since Local 0p- tion 2,000 and 3.000 visitors may be seen boarding the Metropolitan cars without a profane word or a. rowdy 1 action. At our recent Old Boys’ Re-‘ union when upwards of 2000 visitors took part in the celebration. many of the boys commented favorably on the contrast hetWeen the present and the past. In former times as a vilage We have had to make provision for the ne- cessities of the poor within its limits. To-day we are entirely relieved of that anxiety. Since the advent of Local 0p- tion, Poverty is an “unknown quan- tity" in Richmond Hill. Our contest is not with the hotel. Attractive and Comfortable calling places for the ac- commodation of the travelling public are needed all along the line. Apart from the sale of intoxicating drink. hotel keeping is as legitimate a bus- iness as preaching the Gospel. \Ve are a Christian community. The Bible which we all revere tells us that no drunkaid shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, and it expressly declares that “Cursed is the man that putteth the bottle to his neighbor’s mouth, and maketh him drunken also." Wisdom dlcmtes that. we as respon- sible citizens. for the sake of our homes. for the welfare of our boys. and to avoid future regrets, should “shun that; which is evil and cleave m that which is good” by voting fur the continuance of Local Option. The Liquor Traffic has held sway over our village for a hundred years. We have begun the. present; century with Lu- cal Option. If m, the end of the cen- tury we find that it has not. hevn a success. it will then he tune for us tn consider its repeal. WM.
