Edlt0r f0rs}nq Nstc2. You are a known
Prohibitionist, aud probably have had
more influence in bringing about the
high license liquor ordinance in this
city than any other man. / esteem you
as an honorable and Just man, and az
such appeal to YOU TO urge upon Council
to modify the ordinance through the me
dium Of your powerful paper. Quite a
number of retail liquor dealers are driven
out OF their business tomorrow. Urge
the Council to give these people two or
three months chance TO dispose of their
stock Of liquors on hand, for it is not iust
TO drive them ont OF business without
notice. | fear the majOritv Of Council
was ill-advised, or that undue influence
has been brought to bear upon them, for
their hasty action IS certainly not in con-
sonance with their well-ku0wn sagaclty.
Even staunch PrObibitiouists have eX-
pressed themselves in my hearing in con-
domination OF this injustice.
Mr.. Editor, is the cause Of Prohibition
SO feeble that it cannot afford to be iust?
trust haze not appealed in vain to you
to lend your powerful influence to the
cause Of justice. D. w.
