It is also urged that the questionshall be so presented that if tho ver-

dict of the people is not in favor ofprohibition, they may have an op-

portunity to state what solution ofthe liquor question they prefer.Another question under consider-ation ia as to whether high licenselegislation or other action to decrease the number of saloons or re-
