OHIO DRYS SUCCESSFUL

Analysis of the returns from the
recent wet and dry election in Ohio
not proving as comforting to the drys
as they anticipated at first. The total
wet majority this year was 55,4l2. In
1914 it was 84,l52 This year 1,025 1913
votes were cast on the statewide pro-
hibition issue, whereas in 1914 the
vote polled on prohibition was 1893
500. This was loss of 6.2 per cent
The total vote in 1914 was / ,l53,620;
showing that COLA voters did not
express themselves on the sale OF
liquor, although they voted on other
issues. This year, the vote shows
plainly that the rural prohibitionists
come out to vote more loyalty than
the city libeEals. There were no real
prohibition gains What really hap
pened was that the prohibitionists lost
less than the liberals. For instance
the anti-liberal vote in 1914 was 504,-
III. and in 1915 was 484,o36, or a pro-
hibition loss of 1922, which is 3.9
per cent of the prohibition vote this
year The liberal vote shrank from
588, 32o in 1914 to 540,377, showing
that the liberal loss was 1852, or 81
ner cent. From another angle, it is
also shown that the cause of prohibit
