One Month of It in West Virginia

A DESPATCH from Wheeling, West Virginia, says: “Just one month from the date prohibition became effective in this state, the city workhouse was empty. Five prisoners were released, and guards and cooks have been released until the monthly pay-roll has been decreased from $484 to $74. On July 1, when prohibition became effective, there were 100 prisoners in the workhouse.”
