to Exclude Saloons.

Kansas City, Sept. 17.-Four coun-
ties, Laclede, Ozark, Dade and Benton,
voted on Saturday or Monday to ex-

tion law in Missouri. These counties
made 81 out Of ia counties which have
voted to drive out the saloons. The in
dications are that Missouri soon will
be almost prohibition state, with the
exception of it's large cities.
The law says that any city having
more than 1900 population may vote
separately when the county votes on
saloons. In nearly all the instances
the towns have voted dry" but no
city larger than 10000 has voted so
far
There is an effort in this county to-
hold local option election, in which
event Kansas City will vote separate
ly. The politicians of both parties are
worrying about the situation. Each
party fears the candidates Of the other
will adopt the prohibition movement
as part of his platform.
