Objects of the Fair.

The objects for which the Union w
R. @. Fair is to be held in Armory Hal
for one week commencing December Sd
have already been stated, but it will be
we'll to repeat them in order to show how
deserving is this charity which our citi.
zens are asked to sustain. 1t is well
known that the comrades of the Grand
ARMY of the Republic and their auxiliary
the Women's Relief Corps, are doing a
great but quiet work in our midst by the
relief they offer to distressed and Grip
pied old soldiers and their families.
They are also sending aid and assistance
to many families of deceased comrades,
who are left in want because their nat
ural protector has been removed by the
rude hand of war.
The Grand Army is not in any proper
sense to be classed as secret order any
more than the old volunteer army from
whence it sprung. 1t is existing to-day
almost solely for the purpose of caring
for the physical and moral welfare of the
veterans and their dependents who need
care and aid. Within the last year the
posts and corps of this city have dis
bursed several hundred dollars. All this
mas been done without ostentation or
display, and in so doing they have re-
lieved our benevolent citizens and our
taxpayers from an outlay they would
otherwise feel it duty to extend. Most
comrades themselves, but while time
goes on while the calls for help increase,
the number of contributors in the posts
is rapidly decreasing.
1t is now nearly twenty-four years
civ 1A <~f <t,1 1l011
closed. The most youthful of the sur
vivors are over forty, the great majority
are nearly fifty, while thousands of the
veterans of 1865 have now passed three
score. OF those who experienced the
hardships of active campaigning for a
term of years, there are very few who
are not to-day suffering in health, al
though they may have no disease which
entities them to pension. The strain
of those terrible years was enough to
rack the strongest constitution. Every
year adds largely to the list OF those who
must be helped along life's weary march,
and for many years the increase will con-
tinue. Only for a few years, however! !!
then the veterans of the Union armies
will be known no longer except in mem
ory. 1t will have joined the army on the
other side, where, Grant, Farragut, Han-
cock, Thomas, Meade, Hooker, Logan,
Sheridan and so many of the leaders
have already gone. 1t is to assist those
upon whom this work of helping rests
that the Union Women's Relief Corps
makes this appeal for aid, hoping to
realize by the approaching fair sum
sufficient to meet present necessities and
to establish permanent fund from
which to draw as needed.

will make a careful and conscientious
official, and will fully justify the act OF
every man who votes for him. He is
young, active, experienced and therefore
competent for the duties of an office
which requires much activity to

will have the temerity to deny that Mr..
Fischer's great age must prove a serious
drawback to him in this office.
