I'hone lij. a' there beirg eau4 in all 1,313 votes in tbe city, of these being for prohibition in the prohibition box, two for prohibition iu the disieu sary. bos, 3S! for dispeutary and two for saloons. Not one preciuii iu any ward in the city was carried by the dispeu sary forres. Early in the day the saw tbe handwriting ofi tbe wall, aud in ooe precinct ntadd a bard fight all during the day to carry it, but as in all the others they failed. Tbi4 was in the Second Division of tbe Fourth ward, the voting place being tbe city lot At times the dixpensary forces claimed that the vote was equally divided, but the tally of the prohibition workers nhowed that this was not correct At 12 :." tbe prohibition forces were eleven votes ahead, at 4 o'clock they were thirteen vote) to the good aud when the polls closed the prohibition majority was fourteen. The prohibition force worked earnestly aud quietly, as did the dispensary advocates, but there was no bitterness shown and the elec lion passed off quietly and in per feet cood feeling. The total regis tered vote of the city is 1,!)S2 aud the returns show that tM!! voters failed to exercise their privilege, The election being the day after Christmas many people were out of the city on holiday trips, others bad not paid tbeir poll tax, and others again saw early in the day that the victory was with the pro hibitiomsts and did not vote. I n der nil these circumstances the vote was a very large one, the prohibi tiouists inning by altout two and a half to one. Thus if every man who voted for the dispeusary had voted twice the prohibitionists could still have been victorious by a good round majority The ofliuial vote will he canvass ed and announced at 12 o'clock to day and officially the disjteusary will be dead until that is done, It ut the IHspeiixary CouimiNMonct have determined not to allow the use of this 'last cliauce" for the sale of whiskey at the dism'usary, and last night instructed Manager liaU'helor not to oikmi at all today, Por two trays paat the dispensary has been closed Chrutt 111 as day and election day and it will cou tiuue cloned in olwdieuce to th voice of the people at the polls yes terday, The people of this city rejoice 1 the result yesterday, and none more so than the women whose hearts and souls were in the is.stie. They have done good work for the cause in the church meetincs and in the family circle. All day yesterday they were in the First Presbyterian church and held prayer service for the success ot prohibition, not even closing at the diuner hour, for as one group of ladies would leave another would arrive. The chil drcn of Kaleigh also did a good part and the prohibition songs tell ing of that "The Glorious Dav Will Come," has been a strong iuduenee iu the homes. What the women and children have sung for und prayed for has come and Kaleigh has just cause to rejoice over the sjiendid result, which means for lietter citizeuship and for lietter government. The influence of this prohibition elect ion iu the Capital City will be felt in every part of tbe State. As other elections come what Kaleigh did yesterday wilt bo power for good in the result How Diphtheria is Contracted.

Order of Railway Conductors Pet I- tioa the Oovcraor te I'm His Qoo4 Offices ta that btrtctiotl. Seriutt LaadMtt, Dm. tat. The following petition was hit- j warded last evening to Governor) Swansoo by R. E. Lee division No. 25 uf the Order of lUilway Conduc tors, representing the railway line centering at Norfolk, Portsmouth and Berkley: To His Excellency, Honorable Claude A. Hwaason, Governor of' Yiiginia: We, the undersigned I rumantuce appoinieu uj ine K. r. Lee division Ko. 203 of tbe Order of Kailway Conductors at Porta mouth, Virginia, aud representing the conductors of all liuee of rail ways centering at Norfolk, Porta mouth and Berkley, Vs., would re spectfully request and urge that yon use your good offices and influ ence in having the passenger rates of railways in the State of Virginia restored to the schedule of rates in effect prior to the first day of Oc tober, 1 907, w ben t hey were changed by an order of the lUilroad Com mission. This rtqueot is made not at the solicitation or with the knowledge of the railways, but in tbe interest of tbe members of our orgauiution, who will necessarily be atlocted adversely by auy reduc tion in the revenues of the railways by which we are employed, inas much asourcompeusatiou, aud cer tainly any increase in wages, is de pendent absolutely upou the earn ing capacity of tbe railways. And for the further reason, that rroni our observation and experi ence as railroad conductors hand ling the passenger business of said railways, we are of the opiniou that at the present rates the rail ways of Virginia cauuot earn a fair and equitable remuneration or profit upon the cost incident to maintaining first class passenger service. The majority of the undersigned committee are employed by said railways as passenger conductors, aud in such capacity necessarily come in contact with the traveling public, trom conversations with those who are frcutieutly passen gers upon our trains, we are of the opiniou that the majority of said passengers are not iu favor of the present reduction iu rates for tbe reason that the traveling public would prefer to pay a higher rate for good service than a lower rate for poor and inadequate service, and your committee believes that it will be impossible for the rail ways to maintain under present conditions the service heretofore rendered, much less to improve the same. Iu conclusion, your committee desires to call your special atteu tion to the fact that the employees of the railways are more adversely aflected by a reduction in rates than the railways themselves. This is demonstrated by conditions at this time existing, and the fact that the railways are now, in order to curtail expenses, relievingfrom ser vice a large number of employees. This is not only directly affecting the men thus relieved, but also the general public in that the moneys, heretofore spent by these employ ees for the necessaries of life, no longer find their way iuto the cof fers of the merchants aud farmers of the State. Your committee also understands that one railway now under con struction, almost on the border liue of this SUite, has within the last two weeks relieved from service over five thousand employees.

"The Home of Bargains" The Bank of Union, :.MONitoK. .t:.rzrrzzrz Fivf years ago The Bank of Union opened for business. At that time there was only one bank in Union county, with assets of about $200,000.00 or less, while now there are live banks in the county with assets aggregatm"; about $1,000,000.00. What a wonderful change for so short a time! What is the reason? The principal cause lies in the enhanced values of farm products, but along with this there has been a great awakening in the way of doing business. I'eople who were dead in financial matters have come to life, and they see the dawn of a better day. I'eople are more thrifty than live years ago. They are more ambitious to succeed, and tney do succeed. The banks have contributed no little to this revolution in financial matters. The Bank of Union Has Labored Steadily to Promote Prosperity in Union and Adjoining Counties. It has spent much money to safeguard the interests of its custo mers. No bank could do more under the circumstances. Absolute safety and pood service are guaranteed. The people should recog nize these facts and appreciate them. They could not do this in a more welcome way than by using this bank as a depository. A private room for the accommodation of customers has been provid ed.
