The uonu- n ition was not sought by me, but I was assured t!iac if I consented to aeeep' the nomination the temperauce nitn of b..th parties would support me. The Rowell temperance platform means (1) r,he im- mediate abolition of the bar, including therein the abolition of all hotel and club licenses and therewith the treating sys- tem ; (2) such other restrictions upou the res'.due of the liquor tiartic as exuerii-nce nviy sho* t-. be necessary to limit us operations and effectively to remedy its evils : Lt cil Option to be maintained * a means of wiping out the residue of the retail sale where the electors so decide ; (:lj i ihe strict eufoivemeut of tbe law by officials in sympathy with ihe Uw en- forcement and the elimination of political UtfiiMWM from the administration of the law ; (4) the regulation and inspection uf all houses of publi: cn'ertaiii'nent MI as to insure reasonable ;u:conimocati'in fir the uavellit." public. In brief, ihe ibi.liiiou of all hotel licenses and club liquor liceiw-H and the treating *y*tem abolished. Sh .p licenses will come un- der fuither restrictions. They can be wiped out by Local Option oo a. majority vote wheie the elec'ors so decide. New shop licenses cannot he issued in the place of bar licenses aho'ished.
