was due to the general opinion
that the hall was very badly

voted for that purpose was fair.
The council will take steps to

County Option Petitions
Are Nolu In Circulation
Local Committee Gets Papers
Started Throughout County
Tuesday Morning
GET OUT AND VOTE"
County Meeting AT Wabass0
Next Monday To Organize
County Committee

A meeting was held Monday
evening at which a temporary
organization was perfected for
the purpose of circulating pc
tion throughout the county ask
ing for a special election under
the new county option law. Rev.
N. de NJ. Darrell was appointed
chairman of the committee and
A. E. King secretary. Petitions
were gotten out early today and
are now being circulated
throughout the county.
All petitions must be signed
this week and be on hand at the
County meeting which will be
held at Wabasso Monday after
noon, April 5, at one o'clock. At
this meeting a permanent coun-
| ty organization will be made to
make all necessary arrange
ments.
In order to have a special cleo
tion to determine whether the
county shall have saloons or not,
petitions must be signed by 25 %
of the voters who voted for
governor at the last general
election. This necessitates about
760 signers for Redwood Coun-
ty. The election must be called
by the County Auditor not less
than forty days nor more than
fifty days after the filing of the
petition praying for such an cleo
ton, and the election must be
called for Monday.
Under the recently enacted
County option law, the question
Of license or no-license is def
nitely settled by the election for
three years, ard cannot be voted
on for that period. This does
away with the constant revival
of the question which embodies
much bitterness and many
brawls, and is one of the most
desirable features of the law.
