HIBITION QUESTION F shunts {Our Imiquitous License System-- | Liquor Traffic Should be Con- trolled by the State--Not a Moral, But an Economic Ques- tion. 9 Kingston, Nov: 26.--(To the Edi tor) : The agitation at the present time through ut this province on the subject of the so-called prohibition | referendum, is instructive in many re- spects, ludicrous ine many, and sensa- tional in all. It would be difficult to choose any | subject upon 'which there would be a greater diversity of views, or concern | ing which there would be more antag: | onistic prophesies. It is asserted the one hand that a drastic i like this | 1 | | on measure is needed on account of the | enormity of the evil with which it is | proposed to grapple; on the other | hand it is asserted that all sumptuary legislation unphilosophical and therefore wrong, or at least impracti- | cable. There is much truth and much error in all these assumptions. The temper- | ance party assert that the traflic a | great moral wrong, anil the liquor in terests meet this charge by a flat ad mission. The point that I desire to make is one 1 think not usually dwelt Upon, and that is, that the whole question an economic, rather than a moral or a sentimental one. Morals, of course, may be involved in almost any discussion, but let us con sider the agitation for a moment from an economic standpoint. Why is there so much liquor consuy,- ed ? Manifestly for many reasons, but principally on account of bad econg- mic systems, which have brought the race to a nervous condition that seems. to demand a stimulant: second: because there 'is so much money invested in the traffic; thirdly, and following as a corallary, the most iniquitous license system ever evolved from the brain of man. It has taken, at the least calculation, one hundred thousand years to perfect so outrage ous a license system. We charge a man $300 for a license, and expect him to buy stock, pay rent and support a family, and' not be obliged to get | every drunk who steps his foot upon his premises. The. city and the state receive a revenue from the blood and bones and tears of mankind. Now, who is to blame for this con- dition of hinges liquor seller ? By no means only, for he would rath- er pay a less license, far likely. The Christian church of this province, which, today with mighty weeping and gnashing of teeth, is shouting for prohibition, is as much to bldine as any other organized body because it has never raised its economic voice for a better license system. But | have un idea that the church, after all, is doing the cause of temp- erance reform a great service, al- though it may be that the church is not conscious.of it. 1f this province could have three or four years, more or. less, of this prohibition measure, I think it might set everybody to think- ing of a common sense way out of the difficulty. And 'the problem is not so "difficult of solution. Socialism, which is a remedy for all the ills that afllict so- ci will solve the liquor quéstion; not prohibition. The government should own all the liguor, as it does in some states, and put a man be- hind the bar with the understanding that if he sells during the day 1s 1s is sells two hundred. - In fact, the pres- ent simply wants to be re versed, bar-tender he can, in order process to make a living, as few glasses as possible. [ think "everyone should this measure, not merits--because it has none--but he cause it would kick up. such an infer ral dust, once it got into operation that dt would set everybody to think ing, and if we had all the evil think ers inthe wqrld all thinking at once, they could never-gét up. anyithi half as bad as the system in vogue in Canada, ted States and England. But all true reform costs something besides sentiment and emotionalism. Temperance reform-will cost in dol lars and cents in many ways; for.in- stance, sums will "have to be by states, counties, cities, ete., for the establishment of public boarding houses, inns, ete., for in many localities ~ these houses would not be self-supporting without bar. There is-a better day ahead, vote for the Uni for earth. The liquor traffic is onlv one apartment in that great temple of Mammen, whereas the church anc all other organizations presently wor- ship.
