The Defeat of the Prohibitory Law.
OTTAWA, JUNE l6, 1866.

L ne DsktOt Oh the lfohtbltoiy Law
We have returns from all the counties in
the state but twenty, and they leave the
prohbitory law some 5000 behind, with the
prospect that the counties 10 hear Gom will
swell the majority against it to some ter or
twelve thousand The result beirs thus
beyond doubt, We shall defer the publica-
the official vote from them all.
There are many ways to account for the
defeat Of the claw, but none more surely cor
rect than that the people did not like it. 1t
eannot be charged to General Apathy-that
fatal enemy to many good cause--ior the
vote was by many thousands the heaviest
ever polled in our state. The law was too
cumbersome and hcavy-too complex and
ye,bosc--it took day to read it, and fifty
Philadelphia lawyers a month to under
stand it. There was not a section in it but
could be tortured into half dozen Of mean
ings, and its best provisions were, by its
enemies, tortured into its most odious fea-
lures It fell therefore, not because our
people are opposed to the principle of pre-
hibition, but because the wholesome provis-
ionsof the law were lost sight of in the mud
dy sea of words in which they were con-
.cciyed.
i,is a very great mistake TO suppose that
this is the.ena Of the cause of prohibition in
this state It is mere temporary adjourn
ment of the fight. We have no doubt the
members of our very next Legislature will be
elected mainly on this issue, at least in coun'
ties where it may be necessary to make it a
contest, and we have as little doubt but that
our next legislature will pass new prohib-
itory law, which may or may not be sub
mittcd to the people. But in the passage Of
such law the mistakes Of the late act must
be avoided Let the law be as brief as posi-
BILE, containing few simple, but sweep
ing and vigorous sections. For instance, as
many farmer who voted against the law
has assured us, il the late act, based on
the principle now conceded by all tenn
pcrancc mem that the manufacture and sale
of intoxicating drinks is detrimental to pub
lie morals and public health, had contained
hut the simple provisions that the police
officers of every city and township should
make it their business to abato every liquor
shop as nuisance, and that every man who
is found drunk should be put into the Gala
boose until he told where he got his liquor,
and when the seller was found, he should
be locked up until he abandoned the sale,
the law would have received thousands of
votes which an account Of It's vcrbosity and
complexity were lost.

TnE PORTLAND Rror.--Thc advocates OF
the rum interests have raised deafenng
outcry over the late liquor riots at Portland,
and all sorts Of atrocities have been laid to
the change Of Neal Dow and the temperance
advocates in their connection It appears,
however, that on being brought to trial Neal
Dow was not only honorably acquitted Of
the charge Of having liquor in his possession,
but that his action as mayor in supprcssng
the mob was fully justified as necessary and
unavoidable under the circumstances. The
liquor was purchased by Mr.. Dow and. two
other members of the city council, acting as
a committee under the direction OF the coun-
Gil and the mob, got up by the rummies,
were only prevented from destroying the
city property, by his promptncss and en-
