While men and woman tried and true

"why must this be?'' while the anti pro-
hibitionists are gleefully shaking hands
and congratula ting each other and while
thetic friend OF the rum cause secretly
speaks his mind, or an editor hastens
to be the first to publish anything that
might prove the fallacy OF expecting
prohibition in this decade at least.
While say all this by-play is going on,
it does not follow the temperance ranks
should lay down the sword and prepare
to eatcrow quietly, and forever after hold
their peace. What shall we do? Why keep
right at work, trust less to law and
seek INCREASINGLY to mould that great
leveller, public opinion. II prohibition
laws gain nothing more than the selling
of liquor in original packages' it will not
