Dr. Rhodes of St. Louis was recently on the train with Hon. W. J. Bryan, and fur ni dies this interesting character sketch of the democratic nom inee. Dr. Rhodes is an author of wide note, and is reported to be an unusually fine judge of human nature. He says; l i Mr-Bryan is not of my way of thinking politically, As man a gentleman, a Christian, [ was delighted with him. He is affable without affectation, magnetic, and 1 have no doubt thouroughly sincere.

Lw at issue in the campaign was not alluded to, therefore I can¬ not say that I converted him over to my side! I sought to impress upon him the tremen¬ dous responsibility that would rest on the man whom the peo¬ ple would elect President at this time. lie recognized the fact, but felt sure that the only hope for the country lay in the principles for which he stood, aiding, ‘If Mr. McKinley is elected it only defers our troub lesfour years more.’ Mr. Bry an’s confidence is greatly strengthened in the opinion that the common people are with him. Ha said to me in the course of the interview, ,Tt is a remarkable fact that all great reforms begin with the common people.’ He was struck with the interest ministers‘of the Gospel wore taking in the pres¬ ent campaign. Mr. Bryan’s strong point is not his oratory: I think that has been greatly overestimated. It is rafiier his simplicity, and the fact that he THAT THE FAC-SIMILE SIGNATURE -OF S7 IS ON THE WRAPPER OF EVERY BOTTLE OF 1 Oastoria is put rp in one-sizo bottles only. It Is not sold in bulk.

Whatever the result may be in November, it is promising and an ocasion for gratitude and gratulation that the can¬ didates on both sides are Chris¬ tian gentlemen: Although kept up late on Saturday night, and very much exhausted, Mr. Bryan was in God’s house on the morning of the Eord’s diy. We are approaching a crisis, but God is guiding this greatest of Republic.' as aforetime, and the ship of state will not go on the rocks at tin close of the 19th cintuary.” What it Costs to Vote. In round-numbers about 800, 000 persons will vote in this city on the 3d of November. In order thus to find out the will of these 300,000 citizens the public must spend money *s follows; Rent of 1,31 l polling-places io stores at $5) each.... $ 65,500 Rant of 82 street boo hs at $100 each........ ...... 8,29) Hire of 5568 inspectors at TILLEY &OUIGG, -[-WAREHOUSEMEN AND dealers In X_-uL 2 ^o."foer, Coal, Slxiaa-srlce We keep op haul at all limes We carry a full line ot nice all kinds of Lumber, Shingles, etc. Doors, Mantles, Nish, Winds and 1‘Hints.
