Carried BY Overwhelming
Majority.

Columbus, Ohio. Sept. Addition
al returns from yesterdays special
election on the amendments to Ohio's
constitution, today confirmed .he early
Indications that all OF the AZ amend
ments We're ratified, With the exception
of that providing for equal suffrage
and possibly good roads.
The suffragets today intimated that
the initiative and referendum which
passed by big majority, will be used
In another attempt to give votes TO

Another surprise was the com
parauvely light vote on the liquor Ii
cense amendment. In the larger cities.
the vote on license ran from 10 to l5
per cent behind the vote on the other
principal amendments.
Light Vote Cast.
Reports from the country precincts
based on estimates rather than actual
counts. We're that all the amendments
were suffering at the hands OF the
voters.
The liquor license ,; ,posa1. in which
great interest was centered. provides
that licenses to traffic in liquor shall
be granted subject to laws that may
be enacted by the legislature. 1t does
not affect the present liquor laws.
The cities of the state uniformly
voted in favor OF all amendments but
suffrage The farming communities
voted against the amendments as a
whole but there was considerable like
lihood that they would not offset the
big urban majorittes.
About half of the state vote was cast.
