The good results of such a policy have been praised continuously in the press of the belligerent countries, and are cited in America by prohibitiofl advocates to explain the great strides of the “dry'* movement in the United States during the past two years. To get a conception of what citizens of the "dry” States have experienced under prohibition law, THE LITERARY DIGEST made a strictly impartial inquiry in all the States that have had prohibition laws of one kind or another in operation for not less than one year. Two questions were -asked of the representatives of public opinion in these commonwealths—the^editors of the press: First: Whether In .Their State Prohibition Is a Success? Second: Whether They Would Recommend It to Other States? From nineteen States, 157 replies have been received. In THE LITERARY DIGEST for May 26th, the results of this nation-wide canvass is shown. This. is the first non-partizan investigation of the kind ever made. The result is most illuminating, ^nd will interest every one from brewers to bishops.
