Those parties who had asked to have their names withdrawn from the petition had not changed their opinions, but stated that the signatures had been appended with- out their knowledge or consent. The travel on the Penetanguishene road had been comparatively small since the ad- vent of the railway, and for some years there had been no licensed house of ac- commodation at Dalston, nor did the people desire one. But Mr. Lennox had settled there and appeared deter- mined to force the undesirable accom- modation upon the community. But with all his efforts, only four or ve re- siding in the immediate neighborhood of the proposed hotel could be induced to sign tbepetition for a license. That was proof enough that it was neither wished `nor asked for by those most im- mediately concerned. In behalt of the parents of young men who dreaded to see the terrible temptations of a coun- try tavern placed,,in the pathway of their sons, he appealed to the commis- sioners not to grant the license. There was no demand for it-and the senti-W ments of the community was decidedly against `it. The business had been a `failure in the past and it was only by illegal - and undesirable methods that nancial success could be hoped for in the future." The tavern would be a menace to public morality, and a source of danger to theyouth of the communi- ty. Heneed scaroelypoint "out to the Commissioners the danger of - evil to] young` men from country taverns, where there were few` other-`places of meeting, and the attractionsof the tavern were particularly seductive. He left the case with the Commissioners, `hoping that they_ would come to a decision cal-A` oulatedto bring the good to the greatest number, assured that "they'- could not fail to see that the `real or supposed henets likely to result from the proposed accommodation` were not commensurate with `the inevitably at- tendant evil. A Mn 5. 1898. Mr. Bailey. V.S;, of Barrie, stated" that the accommodation was needed. Mr. Geerne, the Liberal party. men- ipuletor in Ora, spoke long and con- dently in support of Mr. Lennox.
