tend for free lUafreeeblcUttcwilUurpreyoQ Toronto Wo heartily endorse the following clipped from a city paper It is cer tainly worth considering Temperance sentiment in Canada has outgrown all methods hitherto devis ed fur its enforcement in law and prac tice There are large numbers citi zens who believe in temperance and even total abstinence who do not be- in prohibition or high license as the best means of eliminating the evils of the liquor traffic It is clearly time for the introduction of a new method more radical and more ration al than any that has been tried The solution suggested Is State ownership and control of the traffic While of course at this stage of the discussion we cannot pass very far beyond the principle involved leaving details to be worked out later on the following ideas would seem feasible Let the Dominion Government assume absolute and complete control of the traffic throughout the whole country Let them manufacture and sell whole sale and retail all the spirituous and malt liquors used in the country Let the act establish in its first clause to tal prohibition everywhere giving to each municipality the right by major ity of its citizens to have one or more Government dispensaries within its limits according to population the Dispenser to be appointed b the Government at a fixed salary so that he can have no possible interest in the increase of sales no liquors to be consumed on the premises but all safes to be made in closed packages strict regulation as to sale to minors and known inebriates travelling spectore to be paid- the Govern ment whose duties it will be to en force the laws regulating traffic the citizens of each municipality to decide as to the location of such dis pensaries as may be allowed them by the act This would confine the sale of liquor to the cities and larger towns Be cause of the complete elimination of private profit from the business the saloon would disappear and with it the treating custom which is respon sible for so much drunkenness The traffic would also be completely out of politics for it is a political factor simply because of the private profit involved in the business- Take away the private profit and you take away the incentive to political interference The Government is now in the liquor business receiving an income of some eight millions a year and expending large sums of money for police and prison accommodation made necessary by the traffic The Government would not go into the business in order to make it permanent or to advance it but in order to reduce Its evils to a minimum and ultimately it It is objected that vested interests of the trade are now so large that they would have to be compensated if the business were taken over by the Gov ernment To this it maybe said that every man who has cone into the liquor business in the last fifty years on this continent has taken his chances knowing that with the state of public opinion and with the growing rigor of Governmental control he was liable to have the business taken out of his hands at any time The question of revenue and of profits is fundament al If the present revenue from excise and tariff on intoxicants is eight mil lion a year let the prices in the busi ness under Government control be ar ranged at first so as to furnish this revenue with the provision that this is- to be a maximum and as the busi ness diminishes the revenue is to di minish year by year Of course all business connected with the enforce ment of the law to be paid for out of the business To sum up Government ownership and control would eliminate private profit take the liquor interests out of politics destroy the saloon do away with treating make more than half of the country practically clear of the trade reduce drunkenness to a min imum and make it possible tin educa tion and mora suasion to accomplish the highest results It would also provide for any loss in revenue and simplify the problem so as to make it easy to handle l would be folly to substitute public profit for private pro fit and experiment has demonstrated that no system can at the same time increase revenue and diminish drunk enness We are at the threshold of a great new era in Canadian life To eliminate the liquor evil would be to put our civilization upon a firm basis and to give our country an enviable and exalted distinction among the free nations of the earth We owe It to our weaker citizens to the women and children dependent upon them to fu ture generations and to the multitudes who are seeking homes within our borders to make this the soberest country in the world State owner ship and control of the liquor traffic seems to be the best means to this end spend more money for sugar than they do for wheat flour It requires to build and equip the average beet sugar refinery One ton of wheat per acre is a large yield Sugar beets often tons per acre One acre of land planted to sugar beets will yield about one and one- half tons of sugar in a season- At the present rate of increase in the consumption of sugar In- the Unit- States it will require the building of at least modern beet sugar re fineries each year to take care of the increase alone The operating season of a sugar re finery Is known- in the business as the campaign and lasts from to days of hours each stopping only in the case of breakdowns or lot an occasional cleanup A beet sugar refinery in a campaign days requires as follows tons of beets tons of coal tons of coke tons of lime stone barrels or a like capa city in sacks and miscellaneous materials to the value of It employs men and pays out for salaries and labor pays to the farmers over 500000 for sugar beets and the pulp produced during the campaign is worth in actual value as food- for live stock at least 100- It would require beet sugar fac toriescapable of slicing tons of beets every hours to supply the people of Canada with sugar -The- natural conditions of Canada tor growing sugar beets and the man ufacture of beet sugar exceed any country on earth The Ontario farmers are the most successful growers of root crops in the world At four dollars per ton the farmer can make five times as much per acre from sugar beets as from the average farm crop The pulp from the refinery makes a splendid food for all kinds of live The above is quoted from the Farm ing World Toronto
