Victor Edison Columbia TTTTTTtttttTTTtT Loral Option In Peoria. Peoria, 111, April 21. A speclt.1 lo cal option is being held here today to enable the voters to decide between prohibition' or saloons. Peoria Is one of the country's leading centers of the distilling Industry and it is highly un likely that the "drys" will be success ful. Local option elections are also In progress today In Quiney, Streator, Ot tawa, East St. Louis, La Salle and Ga lena. The voters In these towns have been wrought to a high pitch of ex citement by the conflict between the "wets" and the "drys," and an un usually large vote has been cast. The success of the Anti-Saloon league In the local option elections held hi many Illinois cities and towns on April 1 has caused the workers to redouble thi'lr efforts, and It is likely that they will win a victory In several towns where the Issue is being fought out to day, " TreaMirvr'8 Call for City Warrants.
