Three -years ago Local option' was carried. in Arkona by a majority vote. We believe the measure has given ver7 general satisfaction. These three years can be counted as the most successful—eocially, morally and tinancially—in the history of the village, and every busi. nese man who is in sympathy with good morals is very anxious fur a , continuation of the same. . 4 Property is increasing in value in valueWe? , as es for the last fe A years will prove to be the case.
