One of the notions of the Prohibitionists is
that the ten dency Of restriction of the liquor
traffic by means Of high licence is to re-
tard the progress of the prohibition senti-
ment This. view, however, will not, we
think, bear the test Of examination. Quite
the contrary would seem to be the proba-
-bility. Convinced Of the benefits of restric-
ton, by experience, the public would naturally
call for further restriction, and in true pub
lie sentiment would be so enlightened and
strengthened as to demand the total suppress
sion of the traffic. Thi on the assumption
that high license will restrict. the traffic as
its friends claim. If, on the contrary, it
should not do this, then the Prohibltionists
will have clear field, for the only rival to
their method will have been completely dis
credited. To make free rum the only alter
native to prohibition, as the Prohibitionists
seem inclined to do, is not calculated to ad-
vance the cause they have at heart; and in
many communities where public sentiment
is not up to total suppression of the rum
traffic. but is up to restriction Of it, its ten
dency can but be very detrimental to the
public welfare
