consin branch of the Anti-Saloon
league, is aiding in the political fight

to be assisting materially with organ
ization work for independent candi-
dates who are seeking election under
a reform slogan. Mr.. Hutton was here
several days ago and presided at a
conference at which forty people were
present and explained the work of or
ganization. 1t is understood that the
work of the state leader will be large
ly for the organization of the women.
Mr.. Hutton is said to have some very

he has urged that the people Of the
county see to it that men who will en-
force the law are elected at the COM

opinion that Kenosha is a sort of a
booze center for all this section of

ing held the other night stories were
told Of liquor boats operating in the
lakes off Kenosha and discharging car
goes to score of smaller boats which
scurried away to relieve the dryness
of certain sections of the state.
The operation of the "bum" boats
about Kenosha is not news. The
claim has been made for some time
that lake shipments to Kenosha have
been common and that Kenosha has
been used as a distributing point for
wide territory.
1t is said that Mr.. Hutton will give
much time to Kenosha from now I'M
til the end of the campaign.

Scots Voting on . Prohibition Matter

London, Dec. 29-Voting on the prohibition question in Scotland has been going on in the more remote districts for a month or more, and the final result will probably not be known until the end of the year.
 The latest returns are: 196 locali- ties for no change in the present sys- tenn; 24 for limitation of saloon li- censes and 23 for the abolition of existing licenses.
 W. E. "Pussyfoot'' Johnson, the American dry" campaigner, stated to an interviewer at Bradford the !. other day that he was very satisfied with the results so far, which meant the closing down of 292 saloons in Scotland.
 Asked how long he thought it would take to make Britain dry, MT. Johnson said he believed that Eng land, Ireland. Scotland and Wales would be bone-dry in 10 years.
 The Cambridge Union, the we'll known university society, held a de- bate the other day on prohibition and voted against prohibition 211 to 203.
 Toy makers eagerly seized upon the "pussyfoot' notion for the Christ mas season, and all sorts of toys, dolls and mechanical devices have been adapted to the idea.
