THE PROHIBITION POLL.

In the hearts of many thousands of electors a fierce struggle is proceeding as to what shall,'be done with the franchise which' democracy has placed in every adult's hands to-morrow, Thursday. The vote must be cast. To refrain from voting is but to restore to the ostrich-like fallacy of placing one's head in the sand. It is the way of a weakling. The Trade holds a mortgage on the .Dominion's future. The issue is as simple as it is 'momentous. A vote for Prohibition, is a vpte ; for the safety, prosperity, and happiness, of the people. The liquor trade which we "have allowed* to grow up we'must ourselves pull down, or else like Frankenstein's" monster, ife will ' destroy us. Vote for the' child and^the nation! Let nothing prevent you! f,
