1875. Tender the above Reading in an Arti Jard. Takes to attack tie local govern men thai because a certain Gont Lonjin supported govern met the sop ported him by Wanking at h is. Filing liquor without a Legal License for every wrong its said there is a remedy and if the which the Standard complains has an existence the remedy is within reach and we sincerely Hope it will to applied. It 3 a Well known fact that by the License act of 1873 parliament divested the executive of the right of Grantui or with Bolding liquor licenses by providing for the appointment of License commissioners whose duty it is to ascertain that All the conditions required by jaw have been complied with by Tho applicant Boiro granting the License sought. These commissioners Are made Independent of the government and unless the government Are acquainted the responsibility of irregular conduct on the part of such can scarcely attach to the government. We believe in deed Are quite certain the commission ers have issued licenses contrary to the provisions of the Law and have called attention to Tho fact. We know what immediately followed was the Resigna Tion of of Tho commissioners that this was a result and Resigna-1 Tion was adopted by the commissioner to save Hihi self from dismissal Are Points upon which to would not like to express positively at any rate the Rosig nation followed closely the Chip Mairit Hie proceeding. Since his resignation to have heard of no fresh cases Are doubtless indirectly responsible for the perform ances of All their appointee but of the shortcomings of such they Cahoot be to be a rare unless of formal complaint shall have been filed with them. As yet we Are not aware that this has been done. As already mentioned this journal followed other asserted that the License gon missioners had been Illo Galy and we had the satisfaction of hearing of the resignation of the principal of fender forthwith. We Call upon the friends of Temperance to bring to the notice of Tho government any question Able conduct of the Linen be commission ers in the Dischar goof their duties and if the government do not give it All proper attention we shall not spare them. But it is As unjust is unreasonable to hold the government responsible for matters of. As a government they have1 no knowledge Wanton depravity of the present local government in All matters Reg petting licenses spoken of by the Standard has yet to be demonstrated Rover Monts like other human institution have faults enough and we do not suppose the local government of Mani Toba Are exceptional to the Rule in this respect and it is sufficient that they should for that which they Are really blameworthy. If the Diconso violate the Law let who appointed them be advised there of if Selling liquor in. Legacy let the Ald of the jaw be sought. If those courses Are without Success we shall Endeavor to know the reason Why. Order and territory.

I am Happy to see the cheerful disposition and Good Humour which All Content ment and Good feeling exists through out. I am now satisfied and doubted it that the defamatory letters which have from time to time appeared in Tho press were written by ill disposed persons and did not Giro a True of this by deserters who haying broken their oath of allegiance did not scruple to write untruths when they found the. Police Force was not the Holiday pastime they had anticipated. The police Force is beginning of a new order of things in the North West territory and Security will follow in its track.
