Bloomington went "dry" at cleo
ton last week In our opinion the
entire county should be dry, and
affairs of license and no-license left
in the hands OF the county board.
In other words county option should
be installed. We think that if our
representative in the Legislature was
the proper kind of man he would

bill establishing county option.
If our present representative will
not do this we should elect one who
would.
