 Statewide prohibition has carried by from 5000 to 30,000 majority, and the constitution has been accepted by vote of probably three to one. Rev. Mir Dinwiddie, legislative agent for the National Anti-Saloon League, estimates the minimum ma jority for statewide prohibition at 90.- 900, and expects the figures to reach 10000. He bases this estimate upon incomplete returns from 20 of the 35 counties in Oklahoma and 20 of the 40 counties in Indian territory. His returns indicate that prohibit ton has carried in Indian territory by 10000. Twenty counties in Oklahoma according to incomplete returns. give prohibition II ,000 majority. Mir Din widdie says that prohibition has reach ed the estimated vote in all but two or three counties heard from, and has far exceeded the estimate in | many.
 A majority of the larger cities and towns of Oklahoma have given ma .orities for prohibition, including Shawnee, Lawton, Hobart, Muskogee and Tulsa.
