Section 4922, L. O. L., reads in part as follows:
“The election hereunder shall be held only on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of any year. The petition therefor shall be filed with the county clerk not less than thirty nor more than ninety days before the day of election. * **272 If, under the provisions of this act, an election shall be. demanded wholly, or in part in any incorporated city or town or any ward or precinct therein, to be held at the time of the city or town election occurring in a year in which there is no general election, then the county clerk shall notify the proper an-, thority of such city or town that such election has been demanded in order that such, city or town authority may cause the official ballots to he prepared in accordance with the provisions of this act, and the city auditor, or clerk, or recorder, as the case may be, shall make return to the county clerk of the vote for and against prohibition in the several precincts of said city or town, and thereafter said matter shall proceed as in the case of a general election. * * ”
On tile second point suggested by the demurrer it is well taken, and the decree of the Circuit Court is therefore affirmed.
