Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 76, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 March 1913 — While Delphi Was Flooded Citizens Voted It “Dry.” [ARTICLE]
While Delphi Was Flooded Citizens Voted It “Dry.”
Delphi voted to keep the city “dry”- for two more years. .The election was held Tuesday, when that city was flooded with high waters and voters from the lowlarids were taken to the polls in boats. It was a good day to hold an option election and the result was a victory for the “dry” cause, the majority being 162, as against 57 two years ago. The same day Ladoga voted to continue "dry” and the majority increased from 67 two years ago to 116. These results showK that where ever tried out communities desire to continue without saloons.
