leaders completely in the air and ut

The "wets" have put up the hardest
kind of a fight. First they attacked
the legality of the local option law.
then they attacked the petition, and
finally they fought to the Court of
Appeals against holding the election
on the ground that it was unconsti-
tutional because it did not give the
soldiers chance to vote. They lost
on all points.
Both sides have spent thousands of
dollars in the fight. The drys enlisted
divided the city into sections, placed
captain and lieutenants in every sec
ton, usually a ward, and made a
house-to-house canvass Of the entire
city, listing the women eligible to
register and vote. On the two regis
tration days they tore page from
the oldtime politicians note book. The
vets too have conducted house-to-
house canvass, but they did not work
as hard on the registration days as
tie dry forces. Both sides have spent
hundreds of dollars in newspaper, bill
board. streetcar and every other
Known means OF advertising.
Organized labor has taken firm stand
with the "wets" and by ADVERTISE
ments that it has paid for it

and women to vote wet, calling the

Organized Labor Expected to
Cast Its Strength With
the VETS
By Charles T. White

~ URFACE indications point to pro-
hibition victories in a large ma
~ jorty of the thirty eight cities
Of this state at the elections to be
held Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week.
George A. Glynn, chairman of the
Republican State Committee, says that
from reports he has received seven
out Of every ten women who will vote
will cast their ballots to close the sa-
looms.
The outstanding surprise is the ex-
traordinary registration of women
voters. In the city Of Syracuse the
woman registration reached 10000,
slightly surprising the male registra-
ton. In all the thirty-eight cities the
same condition seems to prevail.
The vets in nearly every city used
the economic argument that the munic-
ipslity could not afford to sacrifice
the money received from licenses.
Another feature of the campaign in
applying moral suasion to the voters
was the universal use made of printers
ink.
The labor unions, as rule, sup
ported the cause Of the liquor traffic.
The Protestant churches and Protes-
tant clergy almost without exception
threw their support to the dry cause.
The questions to be voted on on
Tuesday and Wednesday in the vari-
Gus cities, briefly stated, are as fol-
lows:
Shall any person be authorized to
traffic in liquor to be consumed on
the premises where sold?
Shall any person be authorized to
traffic in liquor not to be consumed
on the premises where sold?
Shall pharmacists be authorized to
sell liquor on a physicians pre-
scription?
Shall 'hotelkeepers be authorized
to traffic in liquor?
The voter can vote on one or all Of
these questions, but must vote on each
enc separately.
