eighteen thousand votes the people
Of Oklahoma have declared IN favor
Of statewide prohibition. That Is
now the law In this state, not placed
h our constitution as a political re-

purposes, but because a majority of
our people believe that humanity
will be hettered by having such a
law and by having il enforced. /
