Stinday was Anti-Saloon day in Ann Atbor and in the morning tbe pnlpits df the First M. E., Oongregational and Baptist ohurohes were severally oocupied by President Sloouin, of Kalamazoo, Rev. 3. F. Brant, of Saginaw, and Prof. O. A. Wtight, of Detroit, ■wfao delivered btrong serruons against the saloons and oatlined the work of the Anti-Saloon Leagne iu Michigan and otber staten. In the affcarnoon a meeting of busiHess men and faoulty members was held o tbe leoture room of the M. E. oburoh fot a onnferenoe on the best and most effeotoal means of snppressing tbe saloons. Rev. J. F. Brant, superintendent of the state leagne, minutely detaited tbe plans of tbat organization, and a free disaassion of the sitnation in Ann Arbor foilowed, and several plans of operation were foimulated, bnt it was deoided not to make them public antil they were ready to spring tham. A etodents' meeting was also held in tbe afternoon and a Students' AntiSaloon Leagne was formed with quite a large membership. A unión yoong people's meeting wa heid in the Uoitarian churcb at 6:30 p na., which was addressed by Presiden Slocnm. At 7:30 p. m. two mass meetings were beid in the Presbyterian and Methodist oburches. At the first naraed Prof. Wrigbt and Snpt. Brant deliveied tbe addresses and at the latter President Slocum and Supt. Brant were the speakers. Both meetings were largely attended. What the harvest of tbese meetings will be is not easy to conjeoture, bat it m y probably result in a Wholesale pioeecution of saloonkeepers as no soooer was Mr. Brant in the city Saturday evening than he organized a party who went out and investigated the saloons. They claim to have foand neariy all of them violating the liquor law in sotne way or the other.
