IN THE MIDST OF PROHIBITION.
. TO THE EDITOrf. Sir,—l have frequency met Mr 0. E. Hugo in the: townships fie names, and I do t think it is very unfair tor him to assume i that the 20/ people , who met in his hall • and consumed three barrels of beer at ono sitting are a fair' typo of the livo Ashbur.tonians. I thought better things of Mr 'Hugo, yet he asserts that the same thing happened in Gore. Is Mr Hugo angry, or can lie ctuto a. case that can be considered? . Inyereturgill pleases him, as no boor was consumed at his hall—the Good Templars' Hall. Did Mr Hugo never know of beer barrels in Dunedin at socials and picnics? As to liome drinking, was he ever in a licensed grceer's shop? Tiy again, Mr 0. E. Hugo.—l am, otc, CojiHEi'.oiAi Traveller. — Japan has a written liistory extending over 2500 years.
