tentiOn quite to its own satisfaction.
But the end is not yet.
The Mail still contends that voting
out the diSpensary does not imply
that public sentiment is against it,
as under the Brice law only quail
fled electors can vote. Yet i'll Il
IprCviouS issue We find tins editorial
expression in the Mail: I'VE favor
the Brice law and think county
has Il right to vote out the dispen.
sary if they desire The people have
Il light to decide this question as
they see fit, etc. :" The Mail by in
direction accuses the Price law as
being an unfair test fpu1licSentment
vet it favors that same law us giving
the people the right to decide the
question at Issue. Why this change
of heart? The expression of approval
was voiced 4 month ago when
mo doubt the NJ all sup
posed that the d 5 pen ar Y
had fighting chance. Subsequent
developments have demonstrated the
futili,y of its hope and our contem'
porarv anticipates defeat by dls\
creditmg the law under which the
election will be held. In the deS-
perate hope of saving themselves
they say drowning men will clutch
at StrawS.
What right has the Mail to as
sumo that only half the electors will
vote IN the pending election and
that the silent half comprises ma
lolity of dispensary men.
Suppose for the sake OF argu-
ment, that only half should vote
and there is a majority for pro-
hibition. A very small proper
ton of the qualified voters
voted in the last general election
does our friend mean to say
that if all had voted the re-
suit would have been different:
And the restrictions that
hedge about the general election
who is mainly responsible Tor
their existence? The self-same
individual who has proudly pro-
claimed himself the daddy OF
the 0ispensary.
The argument the Mail offers
that a man who votes against
the dispensary is not necessarily
a prohibitionislst is more lngen-
ious than ingenious. Under the
Brice law the people are con-
fronted squarely with the option
between prohibition and Cispen-
sary. The high license man,
the bar-room man and the blind
tiger cut no figure at all without
a change of the constitution.
When a man vo tes against the
dispensary he casts his ballot
for prohibition, and a consclen-
tious voter in so doing must
feel morally bound to support
what he has helped to establish.
The high license, bar-room and
blind tiger bugaboos are largely
imaginary anyway and sensible
people take them at their true
valuation.
The Mail has quite a knack
of assuming what it strives to
prove.
There it goes again. Althou gh
it admits that the dispensary
question has never been voted
on by the people of the county
it assumes that because every
candidate for office endorsed
the law rs the hest solution and
