HARRIS SEES "DRY" ASSEMBLY Head of the Dry Federation Urges That Attention Be Given to Legislators That there is more than a fight ing chance for the election of a "dry" majority in the -next legisla ture was the opinion advanced by Dr. John Royal Harris, state super intendent of the Dry Federation of Pennsylvania in a. statement issued here to-day. Dr. Harris' canvass of the situation is based upon the after math of the annual convention of the "drys" held here ten days ago. including: reports from some of the counties and personal visits to others. "Our recent convention," said Dr. Harris, "impressed upon us most forcibly the fact that the 'dry' forces in Pennsylvania propose to stand together in the elections of this year and that, in our minds, re moves the last vestige of doubt that we can elect sufficient members of ♦he next general assembly to insure the ratification of the national pro hibition amendment. Heretofore our forces have been split in several dis tricts and the result has been that the enemy candidates have been elected. This year all the 'dry' forces propose to present a solid front and this makes victory not only a possibility but a probability. "Another reassuring feature of our fight to drive saloons from Penn sylvania is the interest taken in the question by persons who have not heretofore done so one way or the other. I refer to the non-voting class. We have received so many in quiries from persons desiring to be informed as to what procedure they must follow in order to qualify to participate in the May primaries that we are convinced that these inquir ies come from the non-voting class who desire to be in position this year to aid the 'dry' cause. "It is our judgment that the stay at home vote will be out4n the May primaries and that it will have a de cided effect upon the outcome and on the side of the 'dry' cause, I am sure. So many persons have given little heed to the economic question In volved In the consumption of liquor until recently. And I believe that the great war has had the effect of making many think on this sub ject as they have never thought be fore. This really is our whole fight, to get people to think and then vote. If they do these two things I have not the slightest doubt that Penn sylvania's black record will be made white at the next session of the leg islature. "In this state the 'dry' campaign Is much more complicated than in some other states where the question was submitted to the people to vote upon It 'yes' or 'no.' Hero we must elect members of the legislature who will vote right on this question. And as there are 28 senators and 207 rep resentatives to be elected this year, it will require great care to make certain that tho people know when they go to vote who are the bona fide 'dry' candidates and the 'wet* can didates. This is the task to which we are addressing ourselves. We propose to see to it that there Is a 'dry' candidate of the two principal political parties in every district and then we will inform the people therein who the right man is." 11TH WARD REPUBLICANS PLAN FOR SMOKER Republicans of the Eleventh ward last night planned for a smoker Thursday night, March 14.
