CLUB
URGES VOTE ON
DRY MEASURE

Delegates to the Republican county
platform convention from the second
precinct, fourth district will go
pledged to work for the inclusion of
prohibition plank" in the platform.
At last nights meeting to nominate
delegates and a county committeeman,
a motion was offered instructing the
delegates TO work for a platform plank
in line with legislation now pending
in the senate-the submission OF pro-
hibition 10 vote OF the people in July.
While the second precinct club
recognizes that prohibition is a terri
tcrial issue, II is felt that the terri
torial platform pledge against chang
ing the liquor law was adopted so long
ago that IL should not be binding to-
day, and on the other hand, IL the
county platform declares for submits
sion OF the subject TO vote Of the
people. IL win clear the way for such
legislators as have scruples in voting
for the plebiscite because Of the terri
rorial platform utterance.
The motion was adopted unanimous
ly and the club delegates will prepare
a plank and urge the platform commAt-
tee to make IL a part OF the county
platform.
