And The Results Show Hoc
Fighting.
Thomasville, Ga , Dec. 6.
Th ore was an interesting strug
gle here’over thepro’ubitien elec
tion yester lay. Each si !e fought
with earnestness, but it is be
lieved the prohis won, possibl
by 100 or 200 majority.
The country districts were
practically without any licensed
sale already, because of the
'operation of the original loc’l
option laws, r« qirring the con
sent of a two thirds in j rity < f
the free holders within presc i
‘•d limits to adow th > s lie, a : I
also the one prohib ting the s ■
within a certain di.-tance from a
school or church.
The hope of the antis, there
fore, was in carry Thomasville.
This, it is believed, they have
failed to do. The anti 6 are deeply
coneerned for ths effect they
fear prohibition might h *ve o i
the tourist business of our big
winter resort hotels . here, but
the prohis are rejoicing ov< r
what they consider a great ami
gloriou- 1 victory.
Brocks Goes Dry..
Quitman, Ga., Dec. 6.
Brooks county joins the dry c
Limn. The prohis carried the elec
tion yesterday by 343 majority,
so the returns show. The cam
paign has been exciting. Large
erowds have gathered each
night to hear speak* rs on both
sides, and tension has bee.i
groat for several weeks.
Each aide was confident of vic
tory, but, judging by the- jiylu
demonstrations of the prohis. they
came out battur than they hu.l
hoped They are celebrated las
night with Hon Ires and fireworks
All eirts of circular* have bsen
printed, and the county has been
almost carpeted with th?m dur*-
mg the campaign.
Colquitt Probably Dry.
Moultrie, Ga., Dec. 6. —Colquitt

hibitiouist. The election has been
close, but the indications are that
ths prohis are victorious. Our O j

dries get a majority of 5 votes.
The country precincts are though
to be quite close Both sides claim ■
the majority, making the result.

prevailed throughout ths ay.

iur county goes wet l>y 300 ma- ,
jority. The fi.iht was an earm ■
one Ou both sides, but it has bee.,
plain all a.ong that (he anti-pr >-

their own way. The defeated pre
his are taking the lesult good bu

tion in the fact that the olh -i

victories against the sale .
