Gen. Wood for allowing Col. Theodore

message follows:

Sec'y Garrison made the message

WEST WReINIA's DRY RECORD.

WEST VlRSlNlA'S INV HENOHDs
The reports made by 50 towns and
cities of West Virginia to the state
department OF prohibition show that
the number OF arrests in the first
dry" year were about one.half the
number OF the previous year. 1t was
to be expected that there would be
much less drunkenness with the sa-
looms closed, and with many difficult
ties placed in the way Of obtaining
intoxicants from outside wet" terri
tory. The claims Of temperance ad-
vocates that there is less crime when
there is little liquor consumed, and
consequently fewer arrests. are am
ply borne out by the figures. The
record shows the total number Of ar
rests in 1884 in so towns was A.
Ell, and in 1914-15, the states first
dry" year, ending the first day Of
this month, it was 1883. The COM
parative arrests for drunkenness in
the two years we're 1873 and 2,73O.
In this report the larger cities OF the
state, except Parkersburg, are in
cluded.
It should be observed, however, that
the results above noted do not av-
erage equally all over the state.
Twelve Of the so towns show more
arrests were made in the dry" than
in the wet" year. These towns are
Newburg, Keyser, Shepherdstown,
East Bank, Cendenin. EN- Grove. Mil
ton. Oak Hill, Terra Alta. Anderson,
Williamstown and Middlebourne.
These increases prove the accuracy
Of the general report. There was
evidently no intention on the part Of
the authorities to ignore the unex-
pected results. But the state as a
whole has clearly reduced the number
of arrests about one-halt by adopting
Pittsburgh Telegraph.
