PROHIBITION is KILLED.
Falls Short by $4,000 Votes in Re-
cent Texas Primaries.

Dallas, Tex.-Practically complete
returns from III out of a total of pa
234 counties in this state, and scatter
ing returns from 81 others, give the
vote of last Saturdays primary election
as follows: For the negative in the
matter of the submission of a statewide
prohibition amendment II, 726 votes,
and the affirmative IS, S53. The total
vote pOlled is estimated at 800, 600, and
OF this number POS, 600 have been &C.
counted for, many not voting on this
proposition.
The election law declares that no spe-
citc demand for legislation shall be
made in the party platform unless it
shall have received a majority of all the
votes cast in a primary election, and
the submission of the proposition will,
it is believed, fail of this requirement
by perhaps $4,000 votes when the COM
plete returns are received.

posting Government bonds in amount
equal TO the amount Of such deposits.
and that thereupOn the interest on the

lie explained that it would cost the
Government nothing TO do this, and that
the plan would bring about a national
saving. as we'll as providing security
for an emergency currency In which
everybody would have confidence. SEN
atoF McLauriu objected particularly 10
the use of county. State, municipal or
railroad bonds as security for such cur

as absolute security as Government
bonds and that people would fear 10 de-
post money i'm banks, especially in
times of financial uncertainty, when IL

issues against security of this kind.
Senator Mclaurin also suggested that

Uncle Sam to Aid in Hunting Wolves

thorough and scientific project for rid
ding the upper peninsula of the pests
will kill almost as many deer as. per
haps more than, all the hunters. The
plans which have been formulated call
for systematic work extending over ap-
prOXimately two years. The eXpecta-
ton is that the state will employ two
or three men, who will become, under
Mr. Bailey's instructions, expert in
wolf killing. During three months of
the spring they will hunt the young in
dens, and during the summer they will
trap the older wolves. They will be
kept busy about six months of the
year.
Mr.. Bailey says that a very rough
estimate of the number of timber
wolves in the upper peninsula is 200,
The success that has followed
scientific wolf killing in other parts OF
the country Is indicated by reports
from the forest reserves. The bio
logical survey has worked with the
forest service in an effort to clear the
National forests of timber wolves and
coyotes, and reports received by the
survey indicate that between / 400 and
1,500 timber wolves We're killed last
year in and near the forests, and about
10000 coyotes.
