UNLOCKED CUBS.
TO THE EDITOR. Sib, — A lad, barely out of knickerbockers, who at Mr Sievwright's meeting made himself ridiculous by asking a number of questions which were prompted by some older people who should have known better, is now making himself obnoxious by soliciting the votes of persons — in most cases very much older than himself, and in every way qualified to exercise an intelligent vote without his juvenile assistance — for Prohibition. He had the impudence the other day to tackle my wife, who is old enough to be his mother, and I would advise my friends to follow my example and have an effective toeplate affixed to their every-day footwear. — I am, etc., Indignant Husband.
