ia $162.

If the balance of Cochise county and
the United States does as well per
capita as have the members OF the
Tenth cavalry of the United States,
there will be no cause for alarm about
the Liberty Bond issue not being over
subscribed. In fact, it would be over
subscribed many times. According to
the figures given over the phone last
evening to The Review by Captain
Dixon, the per capita rate per man in
the regiment now figures at s1O042,
with a possibility of its being raised
by the end of the week. AS the figures
now stand the regiment, with a total
of 1925 men present, have subscribed
for $3.50, $50, while other divisions con.
nected with them have added to the
total, making a total of S139,S50.
For the past week the officers of
the different troops have been having
a Liberty Bond drive in an effort to
see which troop could raise the largest
amount and the drive is not yet COM
pleted. AS the matter now stands troop
tx" has the largest amount with S14.-
600 to its credit, or a per capita rate
of s162.67. Below is given the amount
subscribed by each troop at the close
of the contest Yesterday.

of 972 votes, the total vote being

are that the official count will be re-
quired to determine the result of Mon
days prohibition election in Iowa. All
day today the "wets" gained on the
lead of the "drys" and tonight with
three counties, Adair, Butler and Ere
mont and 81 scattering precincts in
other counties remaining to be heard
from, the returns showed a majority
against the amendment of $50, the vote
being 1854 for to 1927 against.
What II Means.
Should the amendment be carried
the sale and manufacture of liquor
would be prohibited by the constitu-
lion and it would be impossible for the
stateto again vote on the question I'M
til 1921 and then only through the cleo
ton of two consecutive legislatures
which would vote to resubmit the
amendment. On the other hand a wet
victory will not mean the immediate
legal sale of liquor in the state for the
statutory provision under which the
state has been dry two years, must be
repealed. This would not be possible
until the next legislature convenes Two
years hence.
