ST. LOUIS, Mo, August 27.-As the
races begin tomorrow, trainers had to
get to the work of assignees early this
morning in the way of winding up their
charges, Though the painful lack of
posters leaves 1t TO be feared that the
patronage Of the meeting may possibly be
not oyer-gcncrous, yet there Is no doubt
among trainers and horse men in general
that there will be no lack OF lrst-clasS
sport. Final touches in the shape of
last galloping were being put to many
of the horses before dawn to-day.
The outside of the track furnishes
excellent going, while the inside, hur-
died off for the. day, Is being narrowed
into equally good order, Last night
having been absolutely dewless talk of
rain was in the mouths of all ut the

Or in the lightest Of showers, aud all
promises web for splendid track for the

slower, perhaps, than we have been ac-
customed to, but the softer treading will
doubtless be most grateful to the very
large division which have been worked
into the 'poor feet" stage.

One Of the most important ques-
tons of interest to the people of oul
county was the proposition oflicense
or no license for saloons. According
to the figures now received the vote
in the county now stands, IT'S
against license 756 for license, max.
ing a majority against license of 10.
We understand, however that in
Sioux Valley twp. about 80 votes for
license were thrown out because
both the negative and affirmative
to'the proposition we're not. printed
on the ticket. If the commissioners
consider these votes that were
thrown out it will make q small ma
jority for license.

A CITY of Churches.

The Chicago Standard says tho fol-
lowing, taken from an exchange, shows
the relation between cause and effect:
Oakland, California, is certainly q
most remarkable city "a city of
churches, schools and homes; a city of
energy, enterprise ard industry. Its
population is about forty thousand. the
result of natural, substantial and per-
manent growth. Forty churches sup
ply the religious needs of the inhabit-
ants. OF these six are Presbyterian,
four Congregational, six Methodist,
three Baptist, five Episcopal, four Cath
Ole, n Lutheran, and the others be-
long to various organizations. The con-
gregations are large, and it is estimated
that the church-going population of
Oakland is thirty thousand people.
Three fourths of the strongest business
lei are regular attendants at church.
a proof that the church is not losing it's
hold on the influential classes of Oak
land. There is a church building for
every one hundred and sixty homes,
and a clergyman for every two hundred
voters in the city. The record shows
that Oakland is the most moral city ON
the Pacific coast. The church has had
a great influence on the culture, morals
and society of the city, and the people
can well afford to support literally
everything connected with the churches.
