HOW TO VOTE, Score tbe Two Bottom Lines as follows : I vote thai the number of licenses existing in the district continue. I rote that the number of licenses existing in tho district be roducedi I note that no licenses be granted in the district. REASONS : (1.) Will throw over 8000 men and women out of employment. (2.) No License is aa invasion of the natural rights of the individual, and therefore means a great injustice to many. (3.) Wherever Prohibition has been tried in the United States or Canada, it has lad to far greater evils ilian those it sought to remove, sly grog shops, lying, evasion, lawli/sMiess, [ c/jury, increased drunkenness, and other evils. (4.) If No License is carried, every hotel, wholesale house, bottle licensee and club would be closeri up, and no liquor be sold or bought. O (5.) If you buy liqu< r elsewhere, the seller must be notified that it is to be sent or taken into your district, and your name and address be given to him. (6.) The person who sells the liquor would have to give your name and address and the quantity and quality of the liquor sold, to the Clerk of the Magistrate's Oourt. (7.) For a breach of the law you would be liable to a penalty of £20, and for a seeeai breach, to a penalty of £50, or a term of imprisonment. (8.) On suspicion that a wineglassful is sold, any house may be raided by Hw poSoa»«sar liquor found therein will be seized, and the person whose house is rasAel vomt have to satisfy the Magistrate that he had not sold liquor. Failing tt>4»Mt ; which would be very difficult, he wonld be sentenced to a> heavy fine «r tana of imprisonment.*' Can any Law be mm Unjust? This is Ho License.
