LINCOLN DRY BY BIG MAJORITY
Nebraska Capital Election Was a
Warmly Contested One.

Lincoln, Neb., voted dry by 1000
majority. Last year the city went wet
by 355. The dry victory is due in a

city, and the numerous schemes they
worked in order to get out the vote.
Among other schemes the women
called up by phone, time after time, all
those who had not voted, and insisted
that they go to the polls. The streets
were crowded with free automobiles
for the drys and workers.
