Temperance Progress in Ohio

Speaking of the progress of temperance in Ohio under the local option law of that State, the president of the Ohio W. C. T. U. says in the Union Signal:—

We have three dry cities, Cambridge, Xenia, and Mt. Vernon. Of our 693 villages, 473 are dry; of our 1,371 townships fully 1,000 are dry. Under the District Local Option law, passed last winter, 265 saloons have been expelled in the larger cities. Seventy per cent of the area of the State is now dry; twelve of our county seats are dry; the following counties are entirely dry: Knox, Geauga, Guernsey, Harrison, Noble.
