There is no doubt that the vi

NEARS EMO
SOUTH DAKOTA LEGISLATURE
WILL COMPLETE ITS WORK
THIS WEEK.

Pierre.-With the last week OF the
legislature well on its way, and with
Just three more legislative days after
this, the Senate has nineteen bills
in committee which are Of Senate
origin, and perhaps twenty more de-
ferred. The House has thirty-six
House bills either still in committee
or to be acted on in some other way.
From mong those stll in committee
it may be expected that most OF them
are there for q purpose. and will
never get out. That puts both houses
pretty clear to use the last days Of the
session on measures originating in
the other body, and the general opin-
ion seems to be in favor OF clearing
up the calendar before adjournment
every night, SO that it is hardly ex-
pected that there will be the jam ON
the last day that has featured former
sessions.
A delegation from Sioux Falls, COM
prising an attorney and two priests.
was in the city over the week end to
try and get the temperance commit
tees to put in an amendment on the
prohibition law which was enacted
this session to put more teeth in the
bone dry. law Of the state. The bill.
as passed, limited the amount OF wine
that ould be used in any church to
eight gallons q year. and while rlere
seemed pretty general agreement
among the churchmen OF the state
here at the time the bill was passed
that this was fair enough and would
no deprivation, one priest stat
ing that three gallons was sufficient
for his church and he held as many
services as any of them, still this
delegation wanted the limitation re-
moved. The temperance committee
declined to act on the recommends
tons.
r. o. Richards will be here this
week. and has announced that he will
speak in the House chamber Thurs
day evening Immediately after the
