That looks easy, it is easy, but, most of the .voters who want prohibition in this state voted against it, and will whine or howl for two years because they did not get it, and at the next election will vote again against it for fear they’ll lose their votes. People won’t vote for what they want for fear they can’t get it. They vote for what they don’t want, and the more they get it the worse they feel. Young. Aaron always feels good after voting prohi- bition for if he don’t get what he voted for he did not vote for something he did not want.
