National Chairman Charles r. Jones
is confident that the prohibition party
will poll a larger vote this year than
ever before. An exceptionally large
campaign fund is expected ard the
money is already flowing into the cof-
| fers of the party in an unprecedented
manner Many millionaires of promi-
nence, it is said, have contributed to
the fund. Campaign literature will be
circulated by tons. Every cent re-
ceived will be publicly accounted for,
as the prohibitionists publish the
name of every contributor also the
amount and the date of the gift La ad-
dition no money is received which is
known to come from the liquor inter-
ests. That is the rule of the national
committee, although it has had no
opportunity to announce the enforce
ment of the rule lately, because no
money has been rendered the commit
tee by the saloon men.

clubs voters were being recruited for
the prohibition ticket Thousands of
these clubs, he said. had been organized
since the first of this year. Prohibition
was now sure of 100000 votes. By the
time Of the presidential election Mr.
Jones was sure the number would be
doubled
1.-The prohibition party" he said,
has increased 100 per cent. in eight
years. In the same time the republican
party has gained only TIP per cent,
while the democratic party has fallen
off 10 per cent Prohibition territory
during the year just passed has more
than doubled"
Chicago, according to Mr. Jones, is
from the prohibition standpoint the
worst city in the United States, with
New York a close second. New York
state, however carries off the palm as
the state least amenable to prohibition
influence, while Pennsylvania is Sec
Ond in backsliding.
