If the law stands as it seems most likely to, it will be a real prohibition law.

Much prohibition territory has heretofore not been dry territory. Heavy shipments have come in regularly. When these shipments have legally ceased there Is going to be either an extreme drouth in more than half of Texas or there is going to be an epidemic of boot-legging such as has never yet been known. It Is quite po.s- sible that either of these conditions will result in new elections. There will be an attempt, perhaps, to vote the saloons back Into nearly every sa- loonless county.
