thursday morning dismissed the appeal in the case of smith vs the ontario at torneygeneral the ontario temper ance act is therefore upheld by the court the basis of the action taken by the appellant smith was that the on tario temperance act before i he pro visions of the canada temperance act were applied to prohibit the im portation of liquor into ontario was not an act prohibiting the sale of liquor for beverage purposes as it allowed the general saje of native wines and the importation and expor tation of all liquprs the attorney- general for ontario argued that the act need not be an
