The Mann "white slave" bill was passed by the house today by a viva voce vote, Cochiso county luts passed upon the question of prohibit'on nnd the verdict Is against prohibition by an over whelming majority. Tho returns from alt the country precincts and Incorporated cities within the county with the exception of a few small, soatering precincts in remote sections show that the "wet"' majority will be more than nine hun dred. With the exception of a few misguid ed individuals who permitted their fanatical ideas to warp their bettet Judgment, thecampaignwasconducted- ed In a clean and dignified manner. There is no mistaking the sentiment expressed at the ik11s jestordaj'J It was emphatically against prohibition. Tho victory for the "wets" does not mean, however, an endorsement for the saloons of Cochise county as at present conducted, but should rather be construed to mean a declaration in favor of strict regulation, early clos ing and the abolishment of the "dive." In Bisbee this regulation will be made an Issue at an early date nnd thc citizens who voted "wet" yesterday will be found foremost in the movement. Reports from all over the county In-1 dlcate that orderly elections were held. From no precinct comes reports of disorder. In Bisbee and Lowell the liquor dealers strictly observed the law and all front and rear entrances wete barred. The "dry" precincts in Cochise Cochise county, so far as the returns have been received are Warren, Glea- son. SL David, Naco, Willcox. Don Ca bezas and Dragoon. t The heavy "wet" vote In Do-iglas camo In the nature of a surprise on account of the reports which had ix-en received from there during the past ten days. Tho vote In Bisliee agplnst prohibition was grento; than conser vative estimates prior to Wsidnesdhy. Tho returns' so far received show a to tal vote cast in the county of 3977. The wet vote is 2446 and tlie dry ote 1C32. giving a nmiorit; of QIC against prohibition. Thq precincts yet to lie heard rem are Pttradlsq; Pool, UwclSer. White water, Ijisii and Wet Huachuca. In these precincts a touii .clu of 136 will probably be cast wlt" a milorily in favor of prohibition ranging be tween IS and 2f. When the iolls in the Warren Dis trict were thrown open yesterday morning at 8 o'clock, thc final grappkj between the wets and drys for control oftthe situation was on in grim ear- nest, and 010 of the fiercest bottlw eer waged continued front the time the booth doors swung wide iium last evening at 3 o'clock, when the final vote was casts and the counting up begau. At all three polling places in Bisbee a line was waiting, anxious to deposit the little siirw of paper that were ui tell the tale. Most of them weri business men. The miners, save for some who were laid off on account of It being ejection day, voted after tnoy came off shift in the afternoon, when the greatest rush at the jioilins places occurred. Early upon the scene of action were automobiles, both of the Palato Livery Co. and Dobson & Corbelt, ns well as those of private individuals to convey the voters to tho iolla places. Each auto bore a sign, "Vote for Personal Liberty," which was the slogan of the wets all day. Conspicuous also was the free car for transiwrtation between Warren. Lowell and Bihbee, which ran all day. It bore a sign 'This car free to voters," also a banner on each side, "Vote against prohibition." The aut03 buzzed about Incessantly between the different booths and to I.owell aud return. Each machine contained a worker, aside from this chauffeur, who called at residences, picked people up on the street, and otherwise made citizens understand that it was their duty to get busy with be ballot. Workers for both sides were upon the scene promptly at S o'clock. Rev. E. D. Raley, Rev. W. E. Spicer and J. H. Briggs, Jr, apiieared for a time to be doing It all for the antis.
