(Times Special Service.)

OLYMPIA, Feb. 90. The
Times today presents to its read
ers an advance summary of the
local option law which will be,
with possibly only a few minor
notifications, passed at this ses-
sion of the Washington legisla-
ture.
This bill will have the endorse
ment of all of the drys in both
house and sente, of Acting Gov
ernor Hay, and is promised the
support also of some of the so
called "liberal" senators, which
means rs efforts of the saloon in
terests can block its becoming
law.
Cities As Units.
The bill makes respectively
first, second and third class and
unclassified cities of more than
1900 population separate units,
and all country precincts and I'M
classified cities of less than 1900
population another unit.
That is to say each city Of the
size named will determine for
itself whether it will be wet or
dry, and the balance of the coun-
ty will determine as to the rest
Of the territory.
80 Per Cent for Election.
Elections to determine wet or
dry are held on petition of 80 per
cent of the voters. The first cleo
ton my be held specially any time
before November, 1910, but after
then dry and wet elections will
take place at the time Of the gen.
eral election, but separate ballots
will be used.
The enforcement provisions are
quite drastic.
Thirty days after a community
votes dry the law goes into ef-
feet. but the saloonkeepers are
given an additional ten days to
get rid of stock on hand. There
after saloons may be abated as a

which Polly had left on the ground.

younger than Mandy had ever seer

Polly had turned her back at the
sound of Mandy's voice and crossed to
the elm tree, drying her tears Of hap

tuitively that she needed this moment
for recovery, so he piled the leaves
and garlands high In Mandy's arms,
then ran into the house with the light
step of a boy.
