THE OLO PIONEER. I must enter ii must emphatic protest apainst tlie slur lioitij; fast on the old Pioneers in us as a cloak for the Liquor Traffic. I came from Scotland over SO years ajro, took up land, reared n family of nine, one of whom. a Chief Templar of the 1.0. G.T., fell in the war, and we never needed beer or whisky, even with all the pioneering difficulties and hardships. I have seen many of the ]ioor old pioneers go down through drink, but never knew one made richer or better by it; so T must vigorously protest against the lk]uor neoplv making ">e of us to bolster up their falling trade.— Yours, D. COWIE.—(Ad.)
