Whereas in the providence of

in lis 35th annual assembly in the
First Baptist church of Mitchell,
therefore be it resolved that we, the
delegates and visitors in attendance
express our hearty appreciation of the

church and the citizens of Mitchell
who have contributed in any way to
make our visit here pleasant and
profitable, that the we further ex-
tend our thanks to the other churches
and Dakota Wesleyan who have so
kindly opened their homes and
churches for our meetings and en-
tertainment.
Whereas on the seventh of Ne
vember the important question of
statewide prohibition in South Da-
kota is to be submitted to the voters
for their decision. therefore be it re-
solved that we the South Dakota Bap-
tlsttist state convention place our
selves on record endorsing the pro-
posed amendment for statewide pro-
hlbfslon; that we recommend to our
chul ches the observance of Sunday,

genGy offering for the support OF the

fore be it resolved that we the Bap-
lists of South Dakota do deeply de-
ploro the continuation of the war in
Europe with the terrible loss of life
and property and pray that the prin-
ciplos of the Price of Peace NAV be
SO recognized and practiced as to-
bring this state of affairs to speedy
Be it resolved that inasmuch as
talented and consecrated men have
devoted their lives to the work of
The gospel ministry in sacrificial SER
vice and nave found themselves des-
titute at the close of their active SER

that they give regularly to the sup

be i, resolved that We make a greater
emo to acquaint our people with the
real contents OF the teachings of these
sccti and warn them of the danger

 A proclamation by Villareal in the summer of 1914 on the treatment to be given followers of Huerta, created much interest in Mexico as it was interpreted as meaning an expression of the general attitude of Constltu- tional chiefs on the subject of Hucrta, which was causing much speculation and anxiety at that time among for elgn nations. Villareal opposed the wish of part of the Constitutionalist party for drastic punishment of those who had opposed the party and said all within his jurisdiction would be given strict legal trials.
 General Villareal is known IS a stu- dent of economical and social prob lens. He advocated suppression of the social evil attributing to it many of the troubles of the country men. He studied thoroughly all aspects of the social evil in Switzerland on a visit to Europe.

Washington, May 13.--Antonio Vi1- lareal has had a busy career as sol dier, statesman, newspaperman and authority on agrarian, social and re- ligious problems in Mexico.
 He helped Ricardo Flores Magon and other Mexican. socialists in Los Angeles to revolt against Porf1rio Diaz before Francisco Madero took the field, an agitation which resulted in four or five Mexicans spending some time in a, federal penitentiary charged with violation of American neutrality
 With Magon. Villareal edited Re- generation, a Mexican paper pub lished in Los Angeles in Support of the revolution and helped plan a So- cialist commonwealth which it was intended to found in Lower California finances for which were collected by Magon's partisans. After failure of the commonwealth project Villareal became an ordinary street laborer in Los Angeles but later joined Madero and was sent as his agent to Barce- Iona, Spain.
 Villareal has been known as a strong anti clerical and has advocated radical reforms in the Catholic Church in Mexico. He opposed for eign born priests in Mexico and when was the first Constitutionalist cxecu~ duct of his church In his territory. 1a1 frI1 To j,,
