He believed in saying yea you or nay nay but as as to this concern (the Pro- hibition Bill) let them take it away, burn it and give themteomething else. i T LET US ms cooL. Rev. Mr. Harkneee reheated hie objections to the referendum.` He thoubht. however, there was nothing to be ained by being rabid and calling names; e was sorry to take issue withiMre. McKee but he thought it was unfair to any the iweetmineter editor was bonused. RENOUNCES HIS PARTY. He had been a Retormer for years but he was not a reformer to-dav. - The temper- ance people have not `a ghost of a show said Mr. Thomas and Ross knows it.'. He went on to say that the largest share- holders in the Globe were the Canadian Bank of Commerce, which held bigger hank ac-. counts with the brewers than-any other bank- He believed they were not ghting the appetites but the moneyvthat was in the trade. NOT SATISFIED WITH THE MINISTERS. Mrs. McKee made the meeting as lively as could be expected under the circumstances. She thought it was time there had been an expression of opinion from the town. The only expression so far was that published in the ADVANCE. She stood there to protest that that was not the sentiment oi the town. She believed that they were not even the opinions of the people represented. The Ministers should not have waited to express their opinions until dragged out by an AD VANCE newspaper reporter. She deplored the attitude taken by the Westminstervand ` had made it her business to write to the ed- itor and tell him a few things. Mr. Thomas ventured the remark that it had not done much good, but Mrs. McKee thoughtit had. She also accused the Westminster editor with being bonused by the ' liquor interests. She wanted things put right, before the people. ' - WANTS TO LAUGH THE AN-TI2PR.0HlBITI0N- ISTS. Mr J. K. Ross thought they didn t have a chance of winning; he objected to a ma- jority vote at the municipal elections. The reterendumi was `not constitutional. He- thought it would be nice for the liquor peo- ple to have to get that 50 per cent; then` the prohibitionists could sit at home and laugh at them. ` - Mr. R. A. Thomas was the first to ad dress the chairman. He didn't know where the prohibitiouists were at. The Premier had been trying to make the bill" appear wonderful. It would have been better" to have made the vote 60 per sent straight ; It would be hard to get that but there would be some chance. He was sure that the date had been dictated by the liquor people; that was the time of the fall fairs`. If they poll- ed 199,000 votes and the liquor people poll- ed only 100,000 the prohibitionists were beaten ; it didn't matter whether the anti- prohibitionists went to the poll or not. ' He was surprised at the errant nonsense of the Globelately. home an 8 6011. Mrs, S. ughter. The pastor of the Collier street Methodist Church, after addressing these presenton prohibition referred to the proposed refer- enrlum- He called it peculiar. Perhaps [some things could be better settled at the polls than in the legislature, but with the referendum'we` should have the initiative- and a proper working of the referendum. This vote meant a veto of prohibition. The |Government were also drawing across the predherring of compensation. It -was mar- vellous how the press had changed its opin- ions on this subject : compensation had not been granted to those whose 'licenses had been discontinued. Mr. Redditt said `he was present` when the deputation waited up- on Sir Oliver Mowat after the plebiscite. He remembered him saying that the vote was magnicent. He remembered too. I-Ion ,Geo.rW..Ross saying that anv Government. that neglected to hear such a voice would be known better by its epitaphs than by its acts. ' \ ' ' 'l`HA'I` MAY BE rRo1>HE'r1c Signicantly remark d the ape'aker- He went on to speak of the convention and said that his church had appointed two delegates to attend.

There was some doubt as to whether temperance people were meant, by the invitation. As a matter of `fact nearly all present were prohi- bitionists. ` ' ~ T ' .- . . .
