Rev. Sam Jones and Sam Small. DIR. Cox
says: I'VE are sorry to state that the
effort to secure local-option election in
Stanton has failed. The liquor dealers
used every means in their power to pre-
vent the election, and they succeeded.
Many excellent citizens refused to sign
the petition for an election. We are of
the opinion, though our opinion may not
be worth much, that-nf there had not
been such a vigorous effort made last
fall by the Prohibitionists to defeat the
Democratic ticket more signers to the
local-option petition could have been Sc
cured. Many people were very mad over
what had been done. and they had not
recovered from their madness when the
petition referred to was circulated. We

against the saloon. but We do not by any
means endorse many things that are said
by other opoosers Of the saloon, and We
