THE RESULT IN ARKANSAS.

The voters in Arkansas. says the Commercial Appeal, are not in favor of statewide prohibition as a section of their constitution. Whether the white voters would have declared the same result is not definitely ascer- tained but il is believed that a ma jority of the white voters of Arkan- sas are not in favor of state wide pro- nibition.
 Many of the counties in Arkansas already dry were opposed To prohibit tion.
 It looks as if Arkansas has declared for the traditional Democratic policy of local option. The question of the sale of liquor remains with the counties.
 Because the people of Arkansas have declared against prohibition, let no man think they are in favor of an unrestricted sale of liquor.
 The makers of whiskey and the dealers in whisky must realize that the continuance of their occupation depends greatly upon themselves
 People of this country are rapidly passing to point where they will no longer tolerate dive in a small town They resent the interference of the liquor interests in their local p0liti- cal contests and in the larger politics of the state.
 The liquor business like other big business in this country, must sub init to regulation.
 We believe that temperance advo- cates will cause its general triumph not by prohibition, but by such methods as will put into every mans mind horror of intemperance

This feature of the election attracted more attention than all the other measures combined, and it was de- feated, because too drastic.
