Especial to The Times -Dispatch.l
Lynchburg, Va, December 9.--After
having been no-license territory since
to return to the open saloon, the ma
jority being eighty-fve votes In total
vote counted of 1858. The result came
as a surprise to the leaders of the
Anti-saloon League, who were confident
OF victory until they failed to secure
the First Precinct OF the First Ward.
The vets" generally entered the
fight with feeling of doubt, but their
hopes began to rise early in the after
noon, and by the time the polls closed
at o'clock they were sanguine of VIC
tory.
The result hinged on the Second Pre-
cinct OF the Second Ward, for all Of
| the precincts were returned an hour
unofficially before this one came. Up
| to that the ''drys" had majority of
twenty-three. No one expected to SEQ
such vote as that which turned the
| tide and gave the vets the hardest
4 fought battle seen in Lynchburg for
| many year.
| The vote was the largest here for
| years, and 1t is now apparent that the
1 .'wets" won their victory months ago,
4 for victory came to them in the pay
1 ment OF the capitation taxes last June
and the registration in October. Here.
the canvass by the "drys" during tho
campaign showed, was the Waterloo
of the no-license advocates. for they
found they had failed to qualify mora
\ than 400 men who could have voted
had they been as alert as the swets"
We're in the premises.
A statement was given out at tha
Anti-Saloon League headquarters, when
| will be contested, notice of which
will be fled within the required ten
days. The principal ground for such a
contest, II is said. Will be in the fail,
ure of all but one of the registrars TO
require a written application for reg5
4 istration. as seems to be provided tog
.lsby statute. This contest will probably
operate to prevent the opening of the
saloons for some time. The result
4 came as surprise and distinct shock
to tho "drys,"- and few of the vets.
We're prepared for the reversal, Two
INears ago, in a total vote of l951, tho
city voted dry by a majority Of 1911.
This was contested by the .'wets," but
was decided against them, and the sa-
looms closed March 6, 1909.
1t cannot be stated, of course, when
4 the saloons will reopen. Tho election
was orderly, and Il good spirit was
seen 1T the polls among the workers.
The only incident of note during the
day was the Issuance of warrant for

For years, through the earnest eff

but on account of the lack of interest
on the part of the majority of the
