Jasper County Democrat, Volume 12, Number 6, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 21 April 1909 — THE OPTION FIGHT WARMING IN STARKE. [ARTICLE]

THE OPTION FIGHT WARMING IN STARKE.

That the local option fight in this county will not be a sham battle or even a skirmish is dead certain. Both the “wets” and the “drys” are becoming thoroughly organized and the next two weeks will witness the hardest fought fight ever fit in this county. While both sides admit that it will be close, yet both feel confident of winning out. The results in Cass and Blackford counties have greatly encouraged the “wets” in this county while they do not seem to have discouraged the “drys” to any noticeable extent. —Starke County Democrat.
