timated at 40,000 to 42,000 on re
ports received up to midnight.
The Prohibition ticket carried 78

ing majorities. The Piohlbltlon tic
ket has carried 20 counties by

bition majority to reach 50,000.
The election passed off very quiet
ly, no disturbances of any Importance
being reported.
The total vote cast In the state
was about 175,000.

cept Wilmington and Durham went
prohibition

of intoxicating liquors In tho stato
after January, 1909.
SALOONS AS AN INDUSTRY.
While our lumber, coal, dairy and
fruit Industries are bringing money
Into the county, tho liquor business
does not bring in one dollar, but
sends out thousands every month to
pay the wholesale liquor dealers, who
are fighting Prohibition In Coos
county.
