THE LIQUOR QUESTION.
It Is Now Pelng Agitated In Wilkes
County.
Washington, Oa., Aug. I.—Tilt- dis
pensary movement was started in
this county a month or two ago
by a number of men who had been ac- 1
tive In the cause of prohibition and
tv-mperance. This agitation cf the li
quor question brought up the matter
of stralghtout prohibition which
| proved lo be more in favor with n."
pscple than the moet sanguine prohi
bitionists had imagined. Tier latter
phrse rs the question has continued to
grow until It is conceded by all who
have taken the trouble to look inlo the ;
matter, tHat Wilkes county will vote
In favor of prohibition at the coming
(lection, by a very larg.? majority. In
fact (here Is comparatively little op
position. The Gazette Thought that the
dispensary would come nearest the so
lution of the liquor question, but over
and above our vi ws cn the subject we
cheerfully yield to the will of the peo
ple freely and fairly expressed at the
ballot box. We r ally think that a vote
on, the dispensary would have
carried the county In Its favor; but
there was to be no expression of the
<vill of the people by ballot on this
question, and they determined that
there should lie a change from the pres
ent conditions and as the time ap
proaches for the election all Indica
tions are that the county will vole out
liquor.

practically ended that there will be a
match race in the course of the weelt

Marks Daly, and $16.50 additional for
the Montana turfman, Ogden, sec

Hamburg won by one-sixteentb of a
j mile.
The match race will probably be a
mile and a quarter, possibly a mile and
a half, for $5,000 a side, besides the
purse to be hung up by Ibe associa

The weights In August would he 119
pounds for the four year old and 109
pounds for Hamburg. This would
mean a coniest worth going miles to
see and In all probability the Brighton

spectators than ever passed through
them before. Marcus Daly, since the
victory of his colt yesterday, is now
eager to make the maicb, ami Messrs.
Patterson and Norton have stated that
they have sufficient faith In their horse
