Although it will not be known officially just what Premier G. Howard Ferguson will do in that connection until such time as the actual wording of the ballot on the approaching plebiscite on wine and beer is taken on October 23d, there is a strong and well defined rumor in circulation on this side of the border and it appears to come from reliable that the government is prepared to offer local option to' such places as do not wish the privilege of light wines and beers.

Discussion has been rife as to whether, in the event a general provincial law carries that will cover wine and beer sale in standard hotels, it will be necessary for each municipality then to vote on a local option question. Information that is available is to the effect that this plan would not be feasible, as sentiment in so many places would be in favor of the arrangement that it would be a need-1 less expense. I The privilege of local option would enable pome of the bone-dry rural counties, which long -before the war measures' prohibition act bad local option drought, Uie same privilege of continuing it. The arrangement would be fair to all sections. Of course, if the wine and beer measure is defeated In October, the government is not bound to accept the verdict of the people any more than if it carries, as the measures to be submitted will be voted upon not as a "referendum." but as a "plebiscite," and the government will still have a free hand.

A plebiscite is merely a registered expression of opinion. Some of the more active modera-tionists declare that even should a small majority vote on the questions to be submitted the Ferguson government would not be morally bound to submit a local option second. H. Clark and W. Hourse.

They point out that If the province goes "wet" it is the apparent intention of giving the drys an opportunity, through local option, to locally change a decision of the majority, so why shouldn't It work the other way? Of course the latter is all speculation as yet, but it will be admitted that the local option aspect presents interesting possibilities. The campaign has been devoted chieTy lo the efforts of the former attorney penera, W. E. Raney. to prove that the present attornel general, K.
