PROHIBITION FOR
YUKON IS URGED
Advocate Refwrendnm Say It Will
Carry 3 to 1—Seattle Given as
Example.. ; . ,, [ .
Dawson, Y. T., Aprii 30—Advo
cates of prohibition, who have made
a canvass of sentiment here on tha
proposed referendum, ora, prohibition
for the Canadian Yukon, kno'wh, of
ficially as Yukon Territory, an
nounced today that they believed
the dry measure would caary by &
vote of three to one.
Prohibitionists have made their
cause a patriotic plaa by calling up
on all loyal subjects of the empire
to cut down their expenseo for
luxuries and put their money Into
channels where It will help the
mother country <n the great war.
A nlimber of the leading mer
chants and prominent business mem
have joined the movement. Pro
hibltioi'iata say adopt.on of the
referendum would keep large sums
of mon-ty here and put the country
on a cash basis.
Tom O'Brien, former owner of th(
Da wren brewery, just b£-ck from
Seattle, says that city is so prosper
ous cs a result of the adoption of
Washington's day law that he be
lieves prohibition would be a good
thing for*the North and hasten its
uevelrr ment. He is actively sup
port'n;t the drys.
Did line politicians are trying to
play j-af.e with the majority and it
is lel'tved the matter will be left
with a referendum as soon as the
Icgfeluture meets in June.—P. I.
