Rainfall Heavy
As far as could be determined last
night, Rock Springs is the only town
TO suffer material damage. Other
coal camps in the vicinity escaped
serious damage, although the rainfall
throughout this section was the heav-

much heavier, is similar to one which
occurred from a similar cause on

the flood last year was not as great

BILL TO MAKE FLA.
DRY WITHOUT ELECTION

Miami, March 24.--T0 make the
State of Florida dry without the ex-
pense of a state wide campaign and
election Is the aim of a bill which
Judge ]. l.. Billingsley has prepared
and which will be brought before
the next session of the legislature
which meets on April /. The main
provision Of the bill would make
all revenues from saloons payable to
the State instead of the counties and
municipalities.
Thus one argument for saloons.
that they turn large revenues to the
local governments. would be killed.
and another substituted In favor OF
dry counties and municipalities be-
cause the saloons would take 30 much
money out Of the various localities
and turn 1t into the State treasury,
This Large revenue" and consequent
"low taxes" argument Ia held to b<
one Of the best and principal vote
getters in wet or dry" campaigns
With 1t removed 1t is believed there
would be no trouble In making everJ
wet" county in the State a dry
one.
Fortytwo out OF tho forty-nint
counties OF the State arc now dry,
and therefore with the great major
ity Of the Legislators coming from
"dry" counties. It . believed tina
the support of the measure Is az
sured. Counties which have vote'
dry" have much trouble. 1t is said
from importations Of liquor from
counties which are wet" Any leg
islative measure that would tend L
help this condition would be support
ed by Legislators from dry countie
from self interest. 1t is believed.
