DRY Competent forecasters predict that 80 per cent of the legislative votes cast in North Dakota on the question of adopting a prohibition amendment to the fed constitution wiil be in the atfirmative. If there is any “wet” sentiment in North Dakota, it is con fined today almost entireiy to the very sinall number who in the old days reaped a harvest of gold and an occasional jail or penitentiary sent ence from illicit traffic in liquor And this element is much smaller than it was five years ago. Many old ‘time blindpiggers have reformed and become substantial good They would be among the first tc raise their voices in favor of nationa! prohibition. North Dakota as a state has never { known a legally licensed saloon. A prohibition amendment was included in the constitution adopted in 1889, after a warm fight in convention. For ‘many years after the state was theore tically dry, saloons flourished in the cow-towns \ of the river. In the capital city, itself, wide-open saloons existed within the last quarter-cen tury.. The fact that they have gone ‘is due ‘to a gradual: crystalization of public sentiment against the liquor traffic rather than to any excessive viligence on the par: of law-enforce ment agencies and professional farm- ers, With the passing of the open saloon, came the blindpigger and the hootlegger, and: slowly but surely they, too, were frozen out. At first j tolerated as. violators of a law waived by more or less common consent, slowly but surely they came to be looked upon first as undesirable anc then as dangerous citizens, a menace to the community upon‘ which they preyed, and, altho at one: time they flourished and had a powerful protec- of any of their members, they are to- day, as a class, almost extinct, con- fined to a very few throw-backs whose days are numbered. In the early days of constitutional prohibition many re-submission cam- paign were waged. They were ex- pected to prove a factor in every leg- islative session, and were an issue in interests, after having been repeated- ly “bumped,” gave up any organized effort to again invade North Dakota years ago.

This was permitted under the constitution. In the last legisla- tive ion, with so few dissenting votes that they were hardly counted, North Dakota was voted “bone dry.” The importation of intoxicants was confined to registered phramacists un- ler severe restrictions assuring that ‘'t be designed for medicinal or scien- ific uses. Law enforcement officers vere empowered to revoke the lic- mses of pharmacists violating the vone dry act, and heavy fines and yenal sentences were provided. In sooperation with the federal Webb- Xenyon act, the North Dakota statute placed the burden of proof as to ™e- gality of liquor shipments on inter- state carriers, and made the traffic 30 unpopular that it has been an utter mpossibility to induce any freight or axpress company to accept: for trans- portation into North Dakota intoxic- ants whose legitimate purchase is not ‘learly established. Drunkenness has been almost entirely eliminated. In all of the large cities police court business has been greatly reduced, and jails have been almost depopu- lated. North Dakota thoroughly ap- proves of real prohibition, and it will | voice that approval when its legisla- ture given an opportunity to vote on the federal amendment.
