DRYS CLAIM BIG VICTORY
Result of Town and Village Elections
in Minnesota.

st. Paul, March 12.-Red fire at
North st. Paul, continued dryness at
Fountain, Fillmore county, and a
fourth consecutive year of no saloons
for New Richmond, Waseca county,
by a tie vote, are features of the
annual town, village and city cleo
tions held throughout Minnesota.
The dry forces claim that the re
turns already show that thirty-four
wet villages voted for no license,
against six dry villages going wet.
The license advocates contend that
the returns show little change in the
relative standing Of the wet and dry
communities.
1T possibly may mean statewide
prohibition" said President George
B. Stafford of the state Anti-Saloon
league, "but we cannot predict that
