Rhode Island Gone Dry.

There is great excitement in Rhode
Island over the result of the recent
election in that State. Wetmore, the
Republican candidate, for Governor,
was elected by a majority of less than
1900, while Edwin Metcalf, the Demo-
cratic and prohibition candidate for
Attorney General, has a majority of
1884. Attorney General Colts defeat
was not great surprise to anybody,
but the adoption of a prohibitory law
by over three-fifths of all the votes cast
is the sensation of the hour. The Ii
quor dealers association did not realize
the great work done hy the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union until
three days before election, and then 1t
was too late to stem the tide. The la
dies of the union, wearing blue ribbon
badges, were at all the voting places,
and to them is due in great measure
the election of Colonel Metcalf and the
passage of the prohibitory law. The
liquor dealers are dumbfounded and
can scarcely realize that their occupa-
tion is gone. On the other hand mass
and prayer meetings are being held all
over the State for the purpose of giving
thanks and rejoicing over the result Of
the most memorable political contest
that ever took place in the State. The
most enthusiastic temperance advo-
Gates never dreamed that they would
win, and their qualification can he
imagined when they learned that they
not only secured a majority, but had
complied with the law, which requires
that any change in the constitution
must he by the casting of three-fifths
of all votes pOlled.
