few weeks ago and decided that al or
ganization with the purpose in view of
retaining the present law was wise at this
time.
To ascertain the sentiment on this SUBJ
ject prominent men in all parts of the
state were consulted and the consensus
of opinion was that the present Local
Option Law should be retained in pref
erence to anything yet proposed to take
its place. With this information at hand
the League was organized with the fol-
lowing officers:

County Vice Presidents, Addison. Cart

The League appeals to all Vermonters
who believe in Local Option to join and
to aid this to the fullest extent possible.
Membership fee is placed at 81 90.
1t is proposed by the League to con-
duct an educational campaign to show
that under Local Option Vermont has
law that has worked benefcially to State
and town and that the temperance cause
had benefited to greater extent than pro-
hibition. Every dollar contributed to the
cause will be used to enlighten the peo-
pie of Vermont through the newspapers
of what has been accomplished under
Local Option and what may be expected
with continuance of the law.
