To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of
the Province of British Columbia: --

	GENTLEMEN, - We, the undersigned voters and residents of the Municipality
of Chilliwhack, in the Province of British Columbia, respectfully represent to
your Honourable House the necessity for a thorough revision of the laws relating
to the Liquor Traffic in this Province. Your petitioners believe that it would be
in the interests of all concerned if the maximum number of licences issued were
fixed so as to bear a certain proportion to the population; that licensed places
be closed on the Lord's Day (commonly called Sunday) and during certain hours on
week nights, and that provision should be made for the efficient administration
and enforcement of such regulations as may be adopted.

	Wherefore your petitioners humbly pray that your Honourable House may be
pleased to pass a law embodying the foregoing and such other provisions as you in
your wisdom may deem necessary to constitute a good licence law.

        And your Petitioners, &c.,

[Similar Petitions were received from the voters and residents of Langley Prairie,
Wellington, Upper Sumas, Comox District, Alberni District, Victoria City,
New Westminster City, New Westminster District, Esquimalt, Sooke, Cowichan District
and Nanaimo.

The individual lists have been merged into one alphabetical list.]
