Methodist church question Of
the most vital Importance to the
homes of Milbank was discussed
by several persons. Shall this
city license saloons next year to
sell intoxicating liquors as a
beverage? After the discussion
Of this question, all were asked
to stand who desired to have sa-
looms next year but no one stood.
Then the other side of the ques-
ton was tested and not less than
175 persons stood, declaring
their conviction to be that
there ought to be no saloons
in Milbank next year. If that
large and intelligent congrega-
ton can be regarded as at all

of the people of this city, there
must be a strong desire to be
rid of the saloons. The license
question will be discussed again
at the Methodist church next
Sunday night by representative
citizers Of Milbank. On April II
every voter of this city will have
an opportunity to vote YES or
mo to the question, Shall there
be licensed saloons in Milbank
