prohibition states on January l, 1903.

Maine began the prohibition movement
in 1855, Kansas followed suit in 1880,
and North Dakota got in line in 1889.
Oklahoma came into the union as a

that the entire South and a goodly

be under statewide prohibitory laws
within the next year or two.
In addition to the eight totally dry
states, present and prospective. there
are nearly 1900 counties, almost 10000
towns and townships and 1876 cities,
with populations ranging up to $780, 900
which have been made "dry" by local
option elections.
| There are eleven cities, each having
population of more than $4,000 that
are "dry," and nineteen whose popu
