THE PROHIBITION MENACE.
Sir,—Prohibition _ is dangerous in p various ways. It is dangerous to per- E| sonal liberty. - It is dangerous to the || finanoial stability, of the country. It a is dangerous to morals and religion. It breeds nly-groggeries and all else that §j flows therefrom. In the adjoining S| column to that in which your Prohibitionist correspondent, "WISIS." attempted to reply to Mr. Kernot's ob- f| servations, appeared further evidence jgj of the first fruits of No-License. "At ffij Balclultha Magistrate's Court to-day S| (the telegram was 'dated Dunedin De- jj'i cember 16) James Robinson was fined £25 for keeping liquor for sale in SiClutha, a No-Licensa district." Clutha § has been "dry" for twenty years; that 0 is to say, Clutha has been under tho menace of Prohibition and all its evils | for twenty years and the abominations 1 of no-license only come to the surfaco occasionally. "W. 5.5.," if intelligent, f must realise how "dangerous" No-Li-cense and Prohibition are.—l am. etc., . JUNIUS. I
