Ths Ists Gen. Booth.

II the conception, creation. and COM
mand Of such an Organization as the
Salvation Army be not something akin
to genius, then we must broaden our
definition Of the word to include work
such as this. Faults there are in it,
crudities. and perhaps theological err
rors. But taking It all in all, the work
of the late Gen. Booth has profoundly
Influenced the modern Christian con.
|cept of the church and its work Dis
parage Il AZ many do, it is an unde-
niable fact that the Salvation Army is
almost alone among Protestant Chris
tian organizations in approximatins
most closely TO the simple ideals of an
apostolic ministry. The extraordinary
man who conceived the idea Of Sal
vation Army took the Gospel descrip-
tions of the ministerial Office literally
and merely grated upon their unor-
gsnized simplicity the military features.
Many have lived as closely to the
ideal of simple austerity as any man
who toiled in apostolic days, but Booth
was the first to organize a separate
Christian organization exclusively on
these lines on a worldwide scale. The
old general was the first to offer to the
modern world a Christian organization
which should successfully answer the
SHOW US" of the skeptical. Strange to
say, its most significant triumphs have
been won in India, the home of crusted
conservatism and intolerant indifference
to Christianity.
At Walsall, in England. the nucleus
of the Salvation Army was formed in
"Hallelujah Band" composed largely
of regenerated outcasts. In 1864 the
Booths went to London and entered on
an extensive open-air campaign. The
work was received with derision. In
1873 the Salvation Army was organized,
Gen. Booth using the English army
regulations as the basis for manage
ment. Out of these small beginnings
has grown the present vast organiza-
ton with corps and outposts all over
the world.
The movement spread to the United
States, and in 1881 to Australia, Eu-
rope, India, and elsewhere. In 1910
there were 8,s82 corps. with 1876 Off
GERS and cadets, the army at the same
time maintaining in its philanthropi-
cal work oo4 institutions capable of ac-
commodating 2o.356 men or women.
The early years of Gen. Booths lead
ership were hard. His efforts were
jeered at and endeavors were made to
break up the movement. Riots were
numerous, and for many years army
members in England were subject to
fine and imprisonment for their re-
vival work. Queen Victoria changed all
this King Edward VII officially in
vited Gen. Booth to attend the corona
ton ceremony. Later, when Gen.
Booth travelled he was received in state
in England and with honor abroad.
The Salvation Army is not a church
or a social settlement, but it fills a great
and good place in the world.

Election day is scarcely more than
two months distant, and yet the CAM
paign has not yet fairly opened. The
textbooks have not been issued, ana
the army of speakers remains inactive.
A tremendous amount of work must
be done within a comparatively brief
period. 1t will be fully month, how
ever, before the great political organiza-
tons will be working under full steam.
This means short, sharp campaign,
with the interest becoming more and
more intense as election day approaches.
It means, too, an inevitable postpone
ment of solid foundation upon which
anything like definite prediction can
be based. The ultimate lineup of the
people is still as much a matter of
doubt as it was three months ago.

After emphatically declaring that
President Taft would be reuominated,
Director Mckinley in a statement to-
night, said:
1T is perfectly natural that simul-
taneously with the general knowledge
Of the complete defeat Of Roosevelt,
many of his former followers are talk
ing with sufficient, energy to create
rumors of compromise candidates.
These rumors have nothing back of
them except the general desire TO draw
attention away from the one great ac.
eomplishment OF the Republican nation

ing defeat of Roosevelt.
president Taft s strength in the
convention has grown from It's first
moment; and the acknowledged defeat
OF Roosevelt is adding to it hourly.
There is no one who questions Taft 5
com plete control of the situation. and
there is not the slightest possibility of
compromise candidate. There will
be no such candidate.
"The extended consideration of the
contested eases by the committee on
credentials is further evidence Of the
complete control of every phase of the
situation by President Taft. II is his
wish that every opportunity for tho
complete presentation Of these eases
should be given that the country may
know without doubt of the absolute lack
of foundation for the extravagant
charges Of robbery and fraud which
are being shouted by Roosevelt as he
