Dry Precincts
Will StaV DrV.

A reader OF The Journal asks this
question: Suppose that the county
votes wet in the coming election,
what effect will the election have on
those precincts, or election districts,
which give a majority to the dry side?
The question is best answered by
quoting the constitutional provision
regulating local option elections,
which reads as follows:
Article XIX, Local Option-Section
l. The Board of CountE' Commission
eTs OF each county in the state, not
oftener than once in every two years.
upon the application of one-fourth of
The registered voters of any county,
shall call and provide for an election
in the county in which application is
made. to decide whether the sale of
Intoxicating liquors, wine or beer,
shall be prohibited therein. the CUES
ton to be determined by a majority
vote of those voting at the election
called under this section, whI... cleo
ten shall be conducted in the manner
prescribed by law for hoIu.ng general
elections; provided, that intoxicating
liquors, either spirituouS, Vinous or
malt, shall not be sold in any eIec-
ton district in which majority vote
was cast against the same at the sand
election. Elections under this secI.bn
snail be held within sixty DAYS from
the time of presenting said applica-
ton, but if any such election should
thereby take place within sixty DAYS
OF any state or national election, it
shall be held within sixty days aILer
any such state or national election.
1t is plain from the above that, re-
CARELESS of the total vote in the coun-
ty itself, and whether it goes wet or
dry, every precinct that gives a dry
majority will remain dry after the
election.
For example, if the county goes wet,
but if precinct No. II should give a
dry majority, that precinct would be
dry until some future election re-
versed the majority.

Value of Palm Trees

The Journal and the
Wet and Dry Question.
Editor. Pensacola Journal:

Escambia county is just entering up
on it's first fight for the elimination
OF the liquor business, and those who
are interested in Kidding the county
Oh that traffic are looking to The
Journal as an ally in the battle. l
have not always agreed with The
Journals position on political QueS-
tons, but | have always admired its
candid and manly utteTances, whether
agreeing with them or not. The
present campaign for a dry" county
is not political question. but an
economic and n moral question. The
Journal has never failed TO stand for
the right on any strictly NORA issue,
and l, with hundreds of others who
have learned to rely on the integrity
OF the paper and the high purpose of
its editorial utterances, trust that it
will render loyal service to the cause
of good morals in the present case.
Your friend,
ANTI-SALOON.
The Journal appreciates to the full
est extent not only the compliment
contained in the above, but the express
sion of confidence which it carries
with il. We fear, however, that Anti
Saloon" has read these columns to
little purpose if he has failed to note
what The Journal has already said in
reference to the coming wet and dry
election.
The editor of The Journal has
stated personally, and the paper has
stated editOriaIly. that if an election
was called The Journal would be on
the dry side, regardless of its mis-
,givings astto the adRisabHity of hold
ing the election at this time, or as
to the, result of the election itseh.
Believing as The Journal does on the
question of tine liquor traffic, it could
take no other stand when the direct
issue Is presented.
We have, however, given what we
deemed the best of, reasons for at
least delaying the election six months,
. but as the papers advice in that re-
spect was unheedeh, We mustAconfess
| to lack of enthusiasm in the cam
psign sand of confidence, in the result

sibie
AS it is. The Journal will, from
time to tune, DISCUSS the various is
