Whatever history may ultimately
say about the Salvation Army it is
nevertheless a highly significant
fact that in the year 1890 2,000,000
peopl,mainly of Protestant antoce
dents, have found the "established
churches inadequate to satisfy their
religious instinct and have formed
by far the most earnest, the most
active and the most rapidly spread
ing religious movement which has
characterized the ninetecth century.

We appeal most frantically to
Reed and Boss Quay and little Ben
ny. Harrison to do something at
Once to save the G. O. P. from in
stant and complete and irrevocable
destruction. It is going to the dem-
nition bow wows about as fast as
the juggernaut at Washington City
can travel there with it. Turning
out. a few "legally elected Senators
and Representatives to make room
for rabid partisans will not do. The
work is too slow.' They must go in
for it by the wholesale, a la Clark
son, and turn out 'every Democrat
in Congress at Washington City.
When .this is done they must en
large their philacteries and turn the
whole Democratic party out, In
fact, that party is already turning
out. Tleyrtunied out in big force
this week.iina cftrrfed the election
field handsomely in several States.
The propect is a good one for them.
Ohio endorses the party; Chicago
has gone beautifully Democratic;
Rhode Island has an excellent pros
pect f gaining a Democratic gov
ernor: Helena, "Mont., endorses the
rightful result in the State election
of October last by electing a mayor
and six out-of eijrht. aldermen; Jer
sey City has given Mayor Cleveland
his third term" Uya big majority;
twenty towns-in Ohio show sub
stantial Democratic gains and in
most of them elect the ticket; in Ho
boken the Democrats make a clean
sweep of everything; in Michigan
they have carried four towns here
tofore solidly Republican and in Al
bany Jas. If, Manning, son-of the
Late Hon, Dan. Manuing, was elect
ed Mayor by a. majority larger than
his opponent's actual vote. Yes,
gentlemen, some heroic measures
must be at once adopted to save the
G. O. IV from otter and complete
annihilation.
"That tired feeling" is entirely
overcome by Hood's Sarsaparilla,
which gives a feeling of buoyancy
and strength to the whole system.

. Sunday Schunl Teactier Meeting.
Last week there seemed to be a
misunderstanding as to tlie leader
of the class for Bible st udy (the Sun
day School teachers' meeting) and
so there failed to be a meeting; but
there will ceitfninly be a meeting to
morrow afternoon at the Y. M. C. A.
Rooms, at 5 o'clock, for the study of
the International Lesson. All Sun
day School teachers are invited to
attend and to bring their Bibles.

The presentation of a gold watch
to Past Grand R. L. Bigger, of
Niagara Falls Lodge, I. O. O. F., by
the members of Caje Fear Lodge
No. 2, of this city, as mentioned bj
us yesterday, was supplemented last
night at the meeting of Orion Lodge
when Mr. Bigger was presented by
members of that lodge with a hand
some gold chain and charm. The

Jas. M. McGowan, in behalf of the
members of the lodge.
The Encampment Meeting;
A meeting-of citizens interested in
securing the permanent location of
t he encampment grounds at Vrights
ville met at the Produse Exchange
at noon to day. The meeting was
largely attended and a great deal of
interest wa manifested in the mat
ter. Col. John W. Atkinson pre
sided and Capt. R. M. Mclntfre was
made Secretary. The exact status
of the affair was stated by the chair
man and it was made known that
about $2,000 is needed to complete
the sum originally agreed upon.
The grounds have been paid for but
the sum mentioned above is needed
for improvements.
The general sentiment of the
meeting seemed to be that this
money should be raiseel iramediately
and there is no doubts we think, that
it will be done. The chaiiiiian" was
authorized to etppojnt a committee
of from three to ten persons to see
to it that this determination is car
ried out. The chairman, Col. Atkin
son, has decided to name ten gentle
men on this committee but the list
will probably not be completed un
til to morrow. It was not ready, at
all events, iu time for publication in
this issue.
