Prohibition Foes Criticize League Tactics and Local Option
A long critique rails at the State Anti-Saloon League two years of effort to dodge a statewide vote on prohibition. The piece notes leaders pressed local option, questions about funding and allies, and quotes Boyd P Doty indicating prohibition may come in 1912 not now. It also covers Stevens county political shifts and related stances.
