pensary hold overs change their sen
tinents, which Is not likely. In the
last senate there was majority Of
shree for the dlspenssrY, which pre-
vented the Morgan local option bill
going thrs u 81. This tune the majori.
~ will likely be four to five in favor
OF the dispensary.

house OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Enough is known to say that the
house viii be pro dispensary as the
senate is. Wherever the dtspensary
heretofore, had q majority that ha'
been maintained aud it has made IL
roads In those counties which hat
delegations opposed, dividing witt
some and making the full delegation
for the despensary. just as an In
stance, there is F4irield. True, tina
gain is only one, as it is recalled, bu
instead OF being q divided delegation
1t is solid now for the dispensary
So two from Lancaster must be count
ed ana Unlon senos q solid delegation

the delegation is divided, that, also
being a Brice law county. In Che:
