Pass Resolutions.

Mitchell. s. D.. Oct. 12.--That the
churches of the state are behind the
movement for state prohibition is evil
dent from the fact that within he past
ten days three large bodies have un.
eQuivocally endorsed the movement
for a dry state. First the Baptists in
their state meeting at Deadwood and
nov the Methodists and P%resbyteri-
ans. The Presbyterian synod just
closed its annual meeting at Huron
and passed strong resolutions con-
mending the Anti-Saloon League and
pledging support for the dry cam
paign. DR.. A. C. Bane, financial Sec
rotary for the national Anti-Saloon
League. spoke at the synod's popular
meeting on Saturday night and urged
that the coming campaign was Of such
importance that every church ought
to make it the chief occupation for
the next year. DR.. Bane also spoke
to the Methodist conference at Sioux
Falls on Sunday night, addressing an
audience that completely filled the
large new Methodist church. The con.
ference also passed resolutions en-.
dorsing the Anti-Saloon League and
pledging itself to the fight to make
the state dry. Practically every reli-
gious body that has met In the state
during the last year has declared in
favor Of a dry state and 1t begins to
look al if the liquor interests will
have a hard time of it next year.
