The "Wets" Have It In Shabbona, Illinois, in 1945: Still A Drinking Town


From the April 22, 2020, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1945, 75 Years Ago.

"The 'wets'  were victorious in the local option election in the village of Shabbona by the slim margin of seventeen votes.

"On the question of whether the sale of alcoholic beverages should be prohibited, 174 voted no and 157 voted yes."
