OMAHA, Nebr., Nov. 11.-Nebraska
thirty-sixth State to ratify the eight

The State has been dry since May

ment that carried by vote of 146,000
ID 117,000. Now the Nebraska amend
ment remains in force though national
prohibition soon will be dead The
State will be dry in theory if not in
fact.
The last Legislature voted to resubmit
the State dry amendment at the gen.
eral election in November. 1884. Even
If the amendment should be repealed
in 1884 the State dry laws remain on
the statutes and cannot be changed
until the Legislature meets In January
1885. Gov. Charles w. Bryan refused
to make any move that would hasten
the national decision. Voting on State
constitutional amendments must be at
general elections.
Nebraska will be about as well sup
piled with reputable liquor, legal con-
siderations aside, as States where 1t is
legal. Beer came into Omaha as freely
before it was legal here as does now
Prohibitionists announce they have
strong hopes Of holding the State dry
laws on the books. They plan a bitter
campaign to retain the prohibition

Approval of repeal by the thirty sixth
State, organization of the special ses-
sion Of the State Legislature, and Gov
Clyde L. Herring's address to the Leg
islature served to focus attention or
liquor control in Iowa this last week.
Iowa, dry since 1914, is certain al
this special session to pass laws per-
mitting and regulating the manufacture
and sale of hard liquors. Gov. Her
rings message recommended the sug-
gestions of the Iowa Liquor Commission
which reported Tuesday
The commission urges either complete
State control of wholesale and retail
distribution, the Quebec system or dis
tribution by a supervised corporation
with profits limited to per cent un-
der strict State supervision.
Fight Is Indicated.
Indications were not lacking that pri.
vate liquor interests and those favor
ing private licensing will make fight
against the State commission or State
supervised corporation.

PHOENIX, Ariz., November lI.-An
80-cent-per-gallon tax on whisky was
levied by the Arizona Tax Commits
sion, In session last Thursday. All SELL
ers were ordered notified that they
faced arrest unless the State tax was
paid. Arizonas spirituous liquor law
has been used as the framework of
similar laws in Texas, Illinois and
New York. Other States also have
used portions Of 1t, in some instances
lifting entire paragraphs from the
statute enacted by the recent special
session Of the State Legislature
Legislators didn't design this States
control law as revenue producing
measure. 1t is for regulatory and en-
forcement purposes only. The State
will derive its revenue from the sale
Of whisky through operation of the
recently enacted luxury tax law, which
provides for levy of 80 cents per
gallon
1t is estimated this tax will pro-
duce about $4,000 per month. Until
unemployment conditions are alleviated,
90 per cent of the revenue will go to

BOISE, Idaho, November iI.-Al-
though Idaho voted five to three for.
ratification of the twenty-first (repean-
amendment on September 10, and al.
though the necessary 36 States have
been enlisted under the repeal banner,
Idaho remains a dry State.

OKLAHOMA REPEAL
VOTE MADE FUTILE
Action Set for 1884 Is Useless as
Result of Final Decision by
SO Other States.
BY WALTER M. HARRISON.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, November
11.-Outcome of the repeal elections
Tuesday, writing fms for "the noble
experiment" created little interest in
Oklahoma.
Oklahoma is In the unenviable posi-
ton of commitment to vote on the
question of repeal some time in 1894,
long after the eighteenth amendment Is
eliminated from the Constitution.
The last General Assembly passed q
resolution providing for repeal con-
vention In each of the eight congress
sional districts on November 28. These
district meetings win be preceded by
county conventions on November Is. at
which the vets and drys will select
delegates to the district conventions.
The expression of these conventions
may result in a decision for q State
vote on repeal later. Inasmuch as a
State vote on the question win cost ap-
proximately 100000 there is strong
movement on foot to find q legal way
to stop the whole useless performance.
A vote on repeal under the circum-
stances would be entirely futile, since
Oklahoma came into the Union consti-
tutionaily dry. The next session Of the
Legislature does not convene for more
than . yea
