Canada's virile Response

Canada, as an intregal part of the
British empire, is in the midst of
struggle to the death for national
existence.
The best blood of the Dominion is
being spattered all over the hills of
northern France.
| The fathers and mothers gladly give
up their sons; girls give up their
sweethearts, and wives give up their
husbands.
] The taxpayers dig deep into their
pockets and all wonder what else they
can do.
While patriotism is ablaze from
Vancouver to Quebec, what are rum
sellers doing?
They are intervening to balk their
countfy's efforts. They are getting
the soldiers drunk, they are democrat
izing the munitions workers, delaying
trains, scuttling their country's best
efforts.
Did Canada SWIVEL and cringe and
stutter and wiggle and crawl con-
corning this?
Not much.
Alberta led off by wiping out the
saloons of the entire province.
Then along came Saskatchewan
with an anti-bar law closing every
dram shop in her boundaries.
Then the people of Manitoba enact
ed statewide Prohibition law with
two to one majority.
Then the Legislature Of Nova Scotia
met and enacted a statewide law for
that province.
Now British Columbia is planning
to GUST the disloyal traffic from her
boundaries.
In the hour of public trouble, wheth-
er it be in a municipal riot or wheth-
er it be worldwide war, the first
step necessary to succeed is to close
the dramshop.
Like the typhus, the saloon is al
ways an evil and a source of trouble,
but this evil is accumulated in the
hour of public distress.
Canada's response to this challenge
of alcohol is worth of great, a mag
nificent people.
Our hats off to the Canucks.
Michigan is one of the seven Com
monwealths which votes on state
wide prohibition next November. The
organized liquor interests are mas
querading as the Michigan and Inter-
state Press Service" with headquart-
ers at Detroit. In their appeal to the
trade for a million-and-a- half- dollar
campaign fund, they declare it is nee
essary to spend fifteen or twenty dol
lars to every dollar spent by the drys.
They want money to buy space in
newspapers (papers willing to accept
their fallacious "facts" are getting
scarcer every day., money to buy
politicians, officials, voters and "ev-
erything lying around loose that will

work to bring the voter into the wet
column than into the dry.
