One week from today the voters of Cali fornia will decide whether the sa loons, breweries and wineries of the state must .go or whether California will remain $n the wet column. The liquor interests are so confident that the prohibition amendment will be de feated that they are offering 5 to 1 that conditions will remain unchanged. The prohibition amendment is over shadowing in interest all other propo sitions on the ballot, about 50 in number.

They point out that the amendment is so drastic that It makes it a crime to serve win or . beer even in the homes, and also that it would prove a hard blow to the Panama-Pacific exposition hre next year. The force of the exposition argu ment probably is the most effective advanced by the wets, and the 'prohi bitionists admit that if the amendment is defeated it will be due mainly to this one factor. Another factor in the fight for pro hibition will be the woman vote. The drys say this vote will put California In; the dry column, but the antis characterize this claim as absurd, as serting a majority of the women will vote against tne amendment.
