Why Prohibition Won.

The overturn of ten counties which against prohibition two years ago. making this year a unani- expression in favor of the rigid prohibition amendment something of a surprise. In most of those counties years ago there most de- cded dsapproval, but the people a rule accepted the situation and favored the enforcement of the law
 The change of sentiment in those counties well the growth of it in the four counties which then endorsed the amendment is attributable One was that prohibition so far as it could be forced under the law 1t had been interpreted, proved to be beneficial to the community instead of financially injurious many had feared it would be.
 The other the disgust which had been in- spired by the fragrant almost defiant violation the law by the bootleggers constituting the lowest and worst element of the community But under the law then stood their operations were facilitated and their detection and punishment difficult
 their detection and punishment was difficult the subject of temperance but with fixed ideas regarding law enforcement generally, determined to give the authorities the latest and best machinery for the enforcement of prohibition And now Arizona has it. If the enforced the authorities and the courts bear the blame They cannot com- plain of any handicap They have the their hands and they have behind them public opinion most forciby expressed.

The election in Maricopa county has shown a number of very inter esting features. It is not generally known, but when registration closed, the indicated democratic strength
 was 2400 ahead of that of the re-
 publicans Yet the majority of the county for Tom Campbell was 3475.
 indicating | change of strength Of
 $500 votes since the time of regis
 tration. This showing was not main
 tained in the senatorial contest in
 which Judge kiobey received 836
 votes over his democratic oppon-
 ent. Some degree of normal demo
 cratic strength was shown in the
 Wilson vote of 1921 compared wItn
 5722 for Hughes.
 still another change came in tho
 selection of the two republican can
 didates for state senator, by votes
 of 6677 and 6251, compared with the democratic strength of 5754.
 Ordinarily a party does fairly well

 counted for soon after noon of elec- tion day. In some of the precincts
 the indicated republican strength was even 40 per cent above that indicated by the registration. Ire democratic brethren affirm that the republicans
 were early at the polls, thus secur-
 ing organization of the majority of | the election boards. that they had i twice as many automobiles as the democrats. although the democra <
 had hired about all the Torrent"

 has been known for twenty years. It is true also that the republi- can county ticket this year was one l of the best ever submitted to the | electors. Only one of the candidates made any campaign for selection in | the primaries and he made his own | campaign thereafter. The republi- | can candidates, backed by their coun- | ty committees. made a notably viz | orous campaign on the basis that | success could only come through dil- | igent effort.

We turn with interest to the next legislature Wie the personnel of it is not definitely known, it is certain that will contain considerable republican divisions within it will occur on party lines. AS pointed out in the course of the campaign party lines pretty well obterated so far concerns state affairs Only party names were being used to designate two groups which, for convenience sake. may be called Huntism and Anti -Huntsm.
 Regardless of the final result of the state election it is this issue that such divisions there may be in the legislature will take place. The republicans and called anti Hunt democrats will often be found side and the Hunt democrats the other. From such returns the legislative election have been received it is evident that the Hunt democrats will be in minority in both branches. The Marcopa delegation in the two houses will consist of five publicans and probably democrat opposed to the policies of the present administration. The Pima delegation, half republican and half democratic is solidly opposed to those policies. The Cochise and Gila delegations, though solldly democratic di- vided the main issue. In Santa Cruz the admins trations candidate for the defeated There is division in Yavapai As the of the north ern counties except Apache and Mohave, while the results of the legislative elections have nounced here, 1t is understood that the democratic nominees generally anti administration.
 The democrats will probably be able to organize both branches of the legislature and may along party lines but it is be expected that there will be any concert of action among them on questions which have disturbed the party in the past
