NEEDLES STAYS DRY.

For thirty-five years the saloons of Needles have closed on election days Wednesday they were closed for the special election, although closed since the first of the year pursuant to the voice of the people at previous city election. But this time they were closed for all time. The people spoke in no uncertain tone and the last faint hope of the "wets" has gone to abide in eternal desert. Perhaps none were more surprised at the results than the "drys" themselves. They had put up strenuous campaign and were hopeful of winning by a good majority. The "wets" were optimis- tic but admit their figures gave them no certainty.-Nugget.
