Bogus Referendums Ignored by Drys

Nothing clearly demonstrates the fact that the

real referendum than study of the referendum vote
Illinois and California The Illinois situation typical
of those states voting bogus referendum and Cali

of state law.
There were 100000 votes cast in Illinois, and only
930l12, about in two voted on the referendum
proposal.
In California, 10707o2 votes were cast for Governor
and 03S968 votes cast for against the repeal OF
the state prohibition law In other words almost as many
voters in California voted the referendum voted for
Governor. The repeal proposition beaten by 10000,

The Statement of Bishop Hughes

We are printing on the first page of this number Of
the American Issue, the admirable statement of Bishop
Hughes, relative to the complex and difficult situation
in Illinois at the recent election.
The statement too late for the last num-
Der of the Issue preceding election day. And the Chi
daily papers that printed this from
the President OF the Illinois Ant-Sa1oon League ALL
buried in the middle of long articles where the general
public would be least likely to it.
Numbers of individual voters received this message
by mail and passed it to others But many thou
sands of readers have not had the privilege of read
ing tive pass it to them fine illustration of
who keep his balance in a difficult situation
and splendid example of Christian statesman
who joins together both heart and brain in wise ap-
peal to the public conscience.

Wadsworth Defeat of National Significance

Perhaps judged from national standpoint considering
its probable effect upon the national Republican party at
tude prohibition and its enforcement the defeat of
United States Senator Wadsworth in New York the
most important dry victory achieved last Tuesday Sen
ator Wadsworh member of the Committee OF Fifty
of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment
which is pledged to defeat dry Congressman He aligned
himself with agency working to undermine the dry
Congressman from his party from his state He
the outstanding Republican leader of the nation
and as such out of harmony with the national dry
policy of the Republican party.
1t will be cnlightening Gyubt to many VETS of the
nation that of Senator Wadsworth's ability and
prestige failed of election running on wet platform in
what is considered the wettest state of the Union.
There is attempt made by the wettest news
papers to camoufagc the of Wadsworths defeat.
They freely admit that the dry upstate that
brought his downfall. Former State Senator Cristman
running independent Republican dry polled 22500O
votes Judge Wagner, Wadsworths Democratic oppo-.
nen given majority of Us 000 The Crstnan vote
would have elected Wadsworth In speaking of the ma
tional significance of this contest Mark Sullivan one of
the most discriminating political writer's in the country
wrote in September:
The New York fight will probably determine
whether the Republican party in the nation will keep
its present position prohibition or will take turn
in the direction of modification. If Wadsworth run
election, the national aspect Of prohibition will be
measurably changed.
Surely the leaders of the Republican party not only Of
New York state but of the nation will not fail TO see the
lesson in Wadsworths defeat.

Il Was a Famous Victory

Well the election is over. The tunult and the shout
ing dies.
In far Illinois is concerned there is great
for rejoicing Here the staged the heaviest bitter
est and most determined attack they have made since
the adoption OF the Prohibition law One of the Daily
papers said It the berest political fight that had
taken place in Illinois in generation Another said it
the greatest since the Lincoln and Douglas fight in
slavery times 1t doubtful if the vets can ever again
put up strong fight nationally in State.
The contest after five years OF preparatory prop
uganda. The wet candidate was political boss and
had under his control all the machinery OF the great
parties The issue the part OF the was simple
and clearout. For the drys it very complicated It
confused also by the injecting OF foolish and mis-
leading trick referendum which divided the drys and d.
verified the attention from the main issue.
The leading dry candidate was in very vulnerable
position and open to serious attack. And the attack
made with all the power of the opposing partisans
it also seconded by the great metropolitan dailes
who were ready to desert their own party candidate
because OF their antagonsm the dry which their
party candidate espoused Then independent candi-
date was brought into The field with powerful interests
