Members of the Salvation Army are talcing a great interest in the work of tho local corps just at present and the coming of Commissioner Kllbey and wife has enthused the members with ronowed activity. Commlsloner Kllbey arrived in Port land yesterday and put in the day in meeting members of the army and on couraging thom In their work. Last night he addressed a meeting of the faithful at Corps No. 1 and today wilL conduct, two special meetings at the Marquam Grand under the auspiceo of the army. Tho first will take place at 3 P. M. and in tho evening another will be held at S o'clock. Commissioner Kllbey has recently been appointed to the commund of the wostern portion of the United States with headquarters at Chicago, and is visiting the Pacific Coast for the first time. In the course of an interview ho said: "The Salvation Army has a great work before it and I am sure the members of the Portland branch are doing th(5ir bost towards assisting those in need of moral und physical help. "While in far Eastern cities I was appalled by the vast number of appli cants for assistance, but upon this Coast I find that the proportion is con siderably less, although I realize that there are a great number right here in Portland that can be helped and I hope that the citizens of this city will do their part towards helping us as sist others. Often I am asked the ques tion: 'Why do you call upon-me? I answer It by saying 'Why do those in nettd ask the Salvation Army for help?' We do not bring them to the city nor do we encourage them in idle ness. Wo try to find them something to do and tell them that their reward will be something to eat and a place to sleep. This we are enabled to do just so long as the people give freely to the army." Monday evening the commissioner will hold forth at a big demonstra tion at Taylor-Street M. E. Church and Tuesday morning he will lRve for California whore he goes to' inspect the work of the array.
