NATION DRY.
READ THE HISTORY OF THE DRY
FIGHT IN THIS ISSUE.

Nation wide prohibition is coming
to the United States with a swiftness
that could not have been foreseen one
year ago. At that time the history
of the battle to make the country dry
contained nothing that seemed to
promise final success for the cause
within so short a time.
But now, year after the prohibi-
ton amendment to the federal con-
stitution was submitted to the states
by congress, it has been ratified by
more than the required number Of
states, and in another year the coun-
try will be dry unless the unforeseen
occurs.
In view of the suddenness with
which the battle has ended, at least
so far as legislative action is con-
cerned, and the tremendous impor-
lance of the event, it is of the great
est interest to review the fight that
has been waged for many years to
bring about this result. The Miner
is publishing on another page of this
issue a story of this fight that every
reader will find well worth reading.
1t is the story Of battle marked by
many dramatic incidents. 1t is not a
story for prohibitionists or anti-pro-
hibitionists, but an impartial review
of events that have made history not
only for the United States, but for
the world.
The Miner feels sure that this re-
view will be of very great interest to
all it's readers.
