Drys Fight +.
From Local
Angle Plans
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel
By HENRY AVERiLL

Raleigh, Feb 3-Along with the
grounding and his weather forecasts,
there were obvious signs of dry
weather in the House yesterday
have, been for. the, past several days,
in fact. ,. - -t
Several months ago this cores
pondent forecast there would he no
general or intensive drive in the Gen
eral Assembly for a statewide refer
endum on the liquor question, but
rather that the drys had abandoned
all plans for a large-scale campaign
and would concentrate on boring
from within" tactics in the form OF
local bills prohibiting the sale of
even beer and wine in numerous
counties.
borne out by the event, as bills seek
ing to make Saharas of Avery and
Madison counties have already been
introduced, and at least one other,
from Odus Null for Cleveland county,
is considered a certainty '
Yancey and Mitchell are already
bone dry made SO by the last session
of the General Assembly.
Under the ski4lful and energetic
direction of Gale K. Burgess, head Of
the United Dry Forces, the prohibit
t:onists have been localizing, their eff
forts all over the State, setting up
local units of ardent and unflinching
drys wherever there has been oppor-.
tunity for success.
All of which means that liquor and
prohibition, while apparent y not at
issue in this session, are not by any
means dead issues for any length Of
time. There is a real dry bloc in
this legislature. 1t. is acting for local
prohibition laws, and before the ses-
sion ends there are quite likely to be
many offered.
Iredel.'s Zeb Vance burlington, for
whom the States notorious dry law
was named, isn't going to put his
county on a dust diet this time-he
said so yesterday-but he didn't come
back to the legislature just to have
fun and draw $500 for the session.
He's saying little, smiling that en-
gaging, appealing little smile of his
and getting ready for a harder, stur-
dier "putsch" two years from now.

MUTED SEA.

We reached the edge Of silver where
the sea
Swept past the reefs to reach that
golden strand,
And music swept again across the
sand.
tide bell sounded and there seem
ed to be
A rush of wings about u.s. past the
hulls,
Swiftly as light tipped with the light
they came,
That white and swift fl9tilla of the
gulls,
Half snow and half the burning song
of flame.
Under the sun they floated there
serene,
Seeming to take the seas eternal mo-
lion
With them in passing, till the very
ocean
Was still about us, silver turned to
green,
And green to opal as from the great
sky
The quiet music of the gulls went by.
