the danger that will threaten us,

faithful to our great trust and duty
will come when we cease to pass good
laws without fear or favor against the
rich and poor, the high and low; will
come when we grant immunity to
transgressors and law violators; will
come when We allow the Mammon of
pelf and unrighteousness to rule and
dominate; will come when we stifle or
permit to be stifled, the conscience
of the masses of the nation. ,..
Against this enemy and this dan

PROSPECT OF A DRY SEASON IN
GRAND TRAVERSE
COUNTY.
SPECIAL ELECTION CALL
The Local Option Campaign Of the
Past Few Weeks Has Resulted in a
Strong Petition Despite All oppo.
sition.

Unless all signs fail, Grand Traverse
county will go dry" by an overwhelm.
ing majority when the matter is pre-
sented to the voters at a special cleo.
ton which will be called by the board
of supervisors in accordance with the
petition which will be presented TO
them. And this despite the cry that
prohibition would ruin business and
drive away all the resorters next sum,
mer.
The local option campaign in Grand
Traverse county was begun only a few
weeks ago. In order TO put the ques-
ton before the people, ii was neces.
sary to have SIC signatures. When the
petitions were looked over by the can
vassers, il was found that 1861 people
had attached their names to them.
This is all the more significant in
light of the fact that the last vote
for governor in Grand Traverse was
but 1,72G.
Each year several thousand re-
sorters" come from all over the coun-
try and from foreign lands. Those in
favor of the wet" movement argued
that these visitors would have their
booze" or they would not come. Pc
toskey was cited as an argument, the
fact that the wet" ticket had won out
there and that the saloons had been
given even more liberty being cited as
proof conclusive.
