But the new regulations have greatly handicapped all police in any atâ€" tempt to enforce the law regarding the abuse of liquor. Not to stress the point unduly, it may well be asked how the police can be expected to enforce the liquor laws in regard ' There to lcensed premises when licenses have been freely granted | people to blind pigs.

In view of the firm hold Hon. Mr. Hepburn kept on his unruly tongue in the presence of his fellows in Ottawa, in view of his reckless tirades against those temporarily in his power, and in view also of the childishness of the whole attitude displayed throughout, the only reply necessary for the moment is the childish cry to the bully that is a "scareâ€"cat": "Cowardy, cowardy, custard." No aone need worry unduly at the illâ€"manners of Premier Hepburn. It is not doing much harm, except to disgrace the pro’ance and belittle the office he holds. It will not be long continued, however. When the legislature assembles there will be much less abuse from Mr. Hepburn. He is brave as a lion with a fancy cage to protect him. It is enlightening to recall how quiet and modest this man was when he sat in the Dominion parliament. There are no samples in his speeches there of the remarkable humour that has caused him so much laughter in recent days. There are some people who imagine Mr. Hepburn is a rough, tough, bold lad. He was a quiet little fellow when he was at Ottawa and knew that nearly any of the members there would mop up the stable floor with his person if he atâ€" tempted any of his yokel humour at their expense. Attackâ€" Ing men whose positions forbid their making effective reply, man. It is quite true that much that the McGillicuddy wrote neglected good taste and good manners, yet it was throughoutâ€"a reply in kindâ€"a beating of a man at his own game. The Calgary bully was humbled. He could give but could not take. He sued Dan McGillicuddy for libel for sayâ€" ing about him just the sort of thing he had been saying for years about others. The public realized at last that this Calgary man had been able to slander others not because of any supwriority of place or person, but simply because no one before had stooped to fight him with his own weapons. When the premier of a great province told the mayor of a great city to go back to his undertaking, the evident retort was to tell the premier to go back to the pigsty and the other 'ép’propriate places on his native farm. Only the mayor of the city had sense enough to know that this sort of thing was neither good humour nor good form. Many people in Ontario are shocked and saddened these days by the uncouth and undignified language and the crude attitude of mind displayed publicly on so many occasions by the new premier of Ontario. Never before has Ontario had a premier specializing in barnyard humour and the manners of the bull pen. Previous premiers have shown respect to others and accordingly proved that they respected themselves. It is too bad that Hon. Mr. Hepburn was never taught that at least other people are entitled to some degrce of respect, whatever he may know about himself. Heaping contumely and cheap slur upon faithful public servants with long records of good work is no credit to anyone. There is nothing clever or bold about it. Calling a Dr. Shields an "objectionable crank" doesn‘t make the beverage rooms any more creditable. The reckless and rough, raw abuse of Hon. Geo. S. Henry, Hon. R, B. Bennett, Hon. Mr. Stevens and others, does more than pass the bounds of good taste. The unwarranted reflections cast by the premier upon the mayor of Toronto, the mayor of Guelph, go far beyond fair critic:sm, to say nothing about the courtesy one public man owes to another. Last week Hon. Mr. Hepburn seemed to be so intoxicated with the exuberance of ‘his own abusive language that he appeared to be on the verge of the delirium tremens of just retribution. While his brand of alleged wit is termtd barnyard humour, he never learned it on a farm, unless from the animals, The province had a complete Farmers‘ Government one time, and although there are few to say a good word for that shortâ€"lived administration, at least it must be admitted that they did strive to maintain some semblance of dignity and decency. Abuse may be a gift with the present premier of this province, but it is a gift he would do well to curb. History proves that it will be stifled eventually. Many will recall that at one time there was a newspaperman in Calgary whose reckless and abusive pen drove more than ong public man from position. The man had a form of wit and humour that showed much morg | , cleverness than exhibited by the smartâ€"aleck comments blurted out by the premier of toâ€"aay. The Calgary writer had a long innings, chiefly because there were few public people willing to reply to him in kind. At last, however, that bitter pen attacked the redoubtable Dan McGillicuddy who wielded a witty and a powerful pen himself. Dan knew the only language that would reach and teach his opponent. He gave full rein to his writing, and what he didn‘t call the other Calgary man is nobody‘s business. _ It may be argued that some of the things said by Dan McGilâ€" licuddy were open to dispute, but the same could more truthâ€" fully be noted in regard to the abusive tactics of the other ' ymR Wl fouty / / 20e _ : _ * nds Timmins, Ont., Thursday, Sept. 20th, 1934 Bubscription Rates Canadaâ€"$2.00 Per Year United 8 TIMMINS®, ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontarioâ€" Quebec Newspaper Association; Class "A" Weekly Group OFFICE 26â€"â€"â€"PHONESâ€"â€"â€"â€"RES8IDENCE 70 Published Every Thursday by: GEO,.

A year ago local inspiration caused the publication in Toronto of an alleged review of conditions in Timmins in the matter of law and order. As was pointed out at the time the picture was senselessly overdrawn. Toâ€"day, howâ€" ever, the picture would not be so much amiss. <In all the changes and uncertainties of the past few months conditions were developing to justify the descripion that was not true a year ago. All the trades, professions and callings in town are overcrowded, probably none more so than the business sometimes referred to as the "oldest profession on earth." There is more drunkenness than ever in the history of the. town. There are more convictions than ever for men operâ€" ating automobiles while under the influence of liquor. To blame the abuse of liquor on the beverage rooms is not cnough. What is needed is a remedy of the conditions. This is what the police are attempting.

They w.ill certainly need that supâ€" port, because they will have double forces arrayed against them. _ During the past year the police force has been greatly handicapped in its work by the many changes in the force. There has been a lack of permanence about the force that has delighted all lawâ€"breakers. The fact that the authority to sell beer.

Official returns for the first three weeks of August, 1934 show a gain of 120 per cent over the same period in 1933 when all the legal brew passed through government superâ€" vised liquor stores or brewers‘ warchouses. Freer beer appears to be a bad thing for the drinking man, for his family, for the business man and professional man, indeed, for everybody.
