ALCOHOL AND DRUG HABITS. (To the Editor of the Herald.) Sirj — Mr. D. J. Barry continues to show annoyance because of exposure of the Liquor Party's attempts to mis-lead the electors as regards the relationship between liquor and drugs. And, as is usually the case when a man is annoyed, he ceases to be balanced m his method of expressing himself. This is a pity, for the people are anxious for nil the reliable information concerning the . liquor question. TTiat he should treat the signed! official statements given by us with discourtesy was not surprising; they were so complete m •their refutation of his effort to show that Prohibition increased the drup | habit. His reference to the inspectors I of Kansas Board of Health as "drug" inspectors, and his insinuations concerning Dr. Crumbine, the secretary of the Board, can be put aside merely as the expressions of his annoyance. ' His effort to belittle the man does not lessen the value of the results of the Kansas inquiry, which are a complete rebuttal of the statements of the liquor trade. Up to the present we have been unable V> trace the source of Mr. Barry's "official" figures of the importation of drugs into Canadia during the" pasr year. Over two tons ojr ; cocafne, morphine, and opium for one year! Certainly some quantity t Further information regarding this ; •would be interesting, especially to those : who understand pome'hing of the' use of drugs. No. Mr. Barry's stpry is too thin.v H> will need to dress it up better next time, for the people of New Zenland are quite capable of knowing the difference between a pcnrecrqw" and' a public I benefit. The official information giv^n ! m the Alliance hand-book, and m other of our publications is so authoritative and conclusive that reasonable electors attach no importance to the exaggerated statements published by the liquor trade, and we are quite content to leave the decision to the people, whohave before them the example -of 110 mHlions of people m the United States. — I am, etc., JOSEPH CARLISLE.
