 Two of the strongest points as con- tended by MT. Smith will be that the House journal fails to show that the requisite time was covered by the ad- vertisement of the bill calling for the election, on the prohibition question in this county and the other Is that the local bill bears the endorsement of the Governors numbeNas No. AZ, while the State prohibition bill bears No. 53. which shows that the local bill must have been filed prior to thes State pro- hibltion bill and would therefore have been repealed.
