A great deal of hardship. is bound to ensue consequent on the dislocation, and the Prohibitionists would do well to make allowances accordingly. At the same time, we think it reasonable to demand that if prohibition is carried at the poll of 1914, it should come into force within three years, so that it could get a fair trial before any vote is taken to restore licenses. That is to say, in the event of prohibition being brought about by the vote of 1914, it, should become operative in 1917, and a vote might very, well be taken in 1920 to ascertain if the people were satisfied with it. Under the present law, if Prohibition is rarried in November it would only he in operation eighteen month* prior to the poll of 1920.. In that case there would be some inducement for persons whose capital wais invested in the trade to stand by with their brewing plants closed down, pending the result of the poll.—Crhistclnirch Sun.
