VOTING ON PROHIBITION.
Interesting, Though Not Necessarily Eff.
fective Election in Canada.

Interesting, Though Not Necessarily Ell.
fective Election in Canada.
QUEBEC, Sept. 3O.-One Of the most
interesting elections ever held in Can.
ada is now in progress. In every cleo.
ton district of the Dominion the elect.
ors will vote upon prohibition. Never
before has the question Of prohibition
been submitted to the people of so large
II territory. In ali the provinces OF
Canada the people will be given the
opportunity to express themselves as
for or against the absolute prohibition
of the sale, manufacture, importation
and use of any and all kinds Of intoxi.
cants in all parts OF Canada.
The Liberal government now in
power has given to the people this op.
portunlty Tor expressing themselves
upon the great question, but no pledges
are made By the government as to
what course will be followed in case
the people vote for prohibition.
1t is not expected that more than
one.half of the registered vote OF the
dominion Will be cast upon the Ques.
ton, and the opponents Of prohibition
say that even if prohibition is carried
the Liberal government on count of
the small vote will refuse to enact any
prohibitory laws on the ground that
the vote does not give a fair and ade.
quate expression of the will Of the peo.
pie. During the past 10 years the ones.
ton of prohibition has several times
been submitted to the people OF the
various provinces, but never before
have the people Of the entire Dominion
voted upon it.
