HARVEST FESTIVAL.

Once again the annual Harvest
Festival effort of the Salvation Army
is drawing near and the local corps
is making active preparations to cele-
brate it in proper style by collecting
goods and articles of all description
and having a regular harvest festival
sale. The proceeds of which go to
help reach the target" set by the
corps. Few people have any idea of
the magnitude Of the Army nor of the
intent of its work. There are in the
United States 911 corps. outposts and
slum posts. where meetings are held
nightly and where thousands of the
unchnrched masses are reached and
where many are brought under the
influence Of the Gospel, leading them
into better lives. Besides the spiritu.
al work which, with the exception OF
the slum posts. is self-supporting.
the army has many social and relief
institutions. such as shelters for
homeless men. shelters for women.
rescue homes for fallen girls, where
500 girls are rescued from lives OF
sin and helped back to lives of vir-
tue. yearly, the army obtaining and
keeping them in employment Then
there are the children's homes. the
childrens nurseries. and so forth.
where 1900 children are cared for
in various ways each year by the
Army Many of thse children have
no parents or home and are just left
on the mercy Of the world. and in
the large cities especially they find
the world hard and cold It is here
the Army proves Itself the friend OF
the friendless, for not one of these
little ones have ever been turned
away without something being done
for them. Space forbids mentioning
all that is being done. but who can
read of the Army's ice cream wagon
during the hot summer months which
in the large cities where the heat is
so intense, daily visit the slums and
crowded districts, supplying these
suffering people with ice to cool the
water and make it drinkable. or to
cool the feyered brow of the poor. al
most uncared-for sick, without desir-
ing to help In some way? In the win
ter the Army has its coal wagons to
take the place of the ice wagons. and
multitudes are thus supplied with fii-
el TO keep them from freezing during
those cold winter months. And so it
goes on. Everywhere. seeking to
help the helpless. and uplift the fall
en-, the Army is found. Much Of this

in 1896 and 1900. This man, so far as
known, has not been reconstructed.
This man, likewise, is suspected of an
intention to ship ex-Gov. Taylor back
to Kentucky II he gets elected. Here
are some pretty damaging things
which can be urged against the Indl-
ana Democrats in 1904. The Repuh-
licans may be relied on to make good
use of these clubs in attacking the
Hoosier state Democracy.
Organism was one of the things
that took Indiana out of the Demo
cratic and doubtful column 1t came
TO the Republicans in 1894 on minor
state officers, which was two years
before Bryan was invented, but when
Organism began to be a pretty con
crete thing Indiana gave $4,000 plu-
rality to the Republican ticket in 1896
and 10000 in 1900. 1t gave $4,000 of
lead TO the Republicans for secre-
tary of state. the head of the ticket
In the election in 1902 In all of those
years Kern was an active force on
the Democratic side. In 1900 he was
the Democratic candidate for govern
or. All of Indianas state officers are
Republicans. The Republicans have
two-thirds of its members of the pop
ular branch of Congress and both of
its members of the other branch.
