LIQUOR Or, The Supreme Value of Human Life, with its Right to Enjoy the Best Possible Conditions and Environment. Labour Leaders and Labour Papers in Canada and the States say PROHIBITION "INCREASES WAGES." PROHIBITION "BENEFITS ARE SO GREAT THAT LABOUR IS NOW SOLIDLY BEHIND IT. LABOUR has Beaten LIQUOR.

BEWARE of the Liquor Traffic's Petition For Their So-called "Fair, Just, and Reasonable ,, Poll. It Asks for Three Issues to he Decided on a Bare Majority I. National Continuance 2. National Ownership 3. National Prohibition Every Voter to Vote for One Issue Only No Issue to be carried unless it secures a majority of the total votes cast on three Issues. Is this Fair, Just, and Reasonable? HOW DOES IX WORK? First— NATIONAL CONTINUANCE secures a majority, THE TRADF WT\r« Second-If NATIONAL OWNERSHIP secures a majority, THE TRADE WINS Note.— the Trade discloses the price it has decided to ask, there will be no doubt about this Third—lf NO ISSUE secures a majority, THF train? wtug X or the Iraffic will continue as at present. LIQUOR DEMANDS A THREE TO ONE CHANCE. Is this FAIR, JUST, and REASONABLE? LOOK! 500,000 ELECTORS WOULD PROBABLY VOTE.
