Salvation Army Nuisance.

I would suggest as a remeci v that their demonstrations should be strictly co ■

fined to the back streets, where they find t ■ class they profess to be so anxious to " convert, " and they should not be permitted to monopoK-i the corners of Quay-street, Victoria-street a.>.i other leading thoroughfares, to the annoyat;. c of law abiding citizens, and the perhaps softly muttered execrations of a long suffering public.

About the computer-generated text

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a process for automatically extracting text from scanned pages. OCR enables searching of large quantities of full-text data, but it is not 100% accurate. The level of accuracy depends on the print quality of the original newspaper and its condition at the time of microfilming. Newspapers with poor quality paper, small print, mixed fonts, multiple column layouts or damaged pages may have poor OCR accuracy.

The page where this item appears has an estimated OCR accuracy of 93.34%.
