its wards votes dry, no saloon can be
established in any except the ward
that went wet.
Also, if 40 per cent of the voters oi
ward Three and Two should petition
for an election and the total vote
should go dry, though ward Two went
wet, no saloon could be established
in either ward. The combined wards
or precincts must be contiguous and
then the larger territory always con-
trolls, except if the larger territory
goes wet it cannot force a saloon upon
any subdivision that votes dry. The
law recognizes the saloon as an evil
and a curse in its operation, and does
not allow it to be inflicted upon any
nwilling people.
The county commissioners can no
longer license saloons at will at cross
roads and country places, but the peo-
pie of the precincts will control these
too by their votes. After any terri
tory votes dry no new election can be
had for two years, and then only
