When the Boston Are was sweeping through

An intimate business friend of his occupied
an office on State street. News was tele-

the flames, and among other exaggerations
was the report that the fire had crossed State
street. Within a few hours came telegram
from Bodwell to his friend: ''Have mailed

Boaton Journal Sept 4th
The Republican Candidate in
Maine.

1t is admitted by even his opponents that
no more worthy man was ever nominated for
public office than Hon. j. R. Bodwen. A
personal friend thus outlines the man who
will be the next Governor of Maine:
| want to recount few minor events in
the lite of Hon. J. R. Bodwell. republican
candidate for Governor of Maine, which
have come under nv own personal view
during the last dozen years. Not that they
would have any suggestive bearing upon his
candidacy for political Office, but as tending
to show the personal characteristics of the
man. And it wants to be borne in mind that
in his particular case there has never been
any trimming of sails to prepare for political
races. His life has been that of careful
prudent, energetic man, of a retiring dispo-
sition; genial but reserved, warm in hi,
friendships, domestic in his habits. Some
dozen or more years ago. one of his com
panies furnished the granite for the censtruc-
ton of large life insurance building in one
OF our Eastern cities and, after its compile
ton, MIR. Bodwell was solicited to take out
policy on his life in the company. Mr.. Bod
well had policy written, think, for 500. 600
and instead of making it payable to his
family, he had it made PAYABLE
in the event of his death, to sundry
friends. among them several Young
men who had been connected in different
capacities with his business operations, and
expressly stipulated that such selection of
payees should be considered a profound
secret. It so remains to-day, and I do not
believe there is one of the be nefciaries of
that policy who is aware of the fact. Is not
this doing Christian act in a Christian
manner! Upon another occasion q certain
business man, in the presence of MIR. Bod.
well and few other gentlemen, made the re.
mark, "Why don't you get rid of Mr.. -?

Grand Rally at Gardiner.

The grandest meeting of the campaign
In this vicinity will be held in the Coli
scum at Gardiner next Saturday evening.
The speakers will be Hon. James G..
Blaine. Hon. Joseph R. Bodwell. and
Hon. Seth l.. Milliken. This will be the
only opportunity that the people on the
Kennebec will have to hear Mr.. Blaine in
this campaign. This is the only meeting
Mr.. Bodwell has consented to attend, and
Mr.. Milliken has spoken but once in
this vicinity. Preparations have been
made for great meeting such as will be
worthy of the occasion. Gardiner is one
of the most prosperous. most intelligent
and best towns in the State of Maine, a
place of many and varied industries, and
especially interested in the questions
which enter into this canvass. 1t is one
OF the strongest republican cities in the
State. as the record shows, and
with such issues as are presented
this year it will undoubtedly cast a repub-
lican majority as large as the largest it
ever cast. The meeting Saturday evening
will pack the Coliseum full, though it is
said that no audience has ever yet filled
it, so large is its seating capacity. Special
rates have been made with the Name
Central for transportation, and hundreds
will go by teams to attend the meeting.
We hope our Augusta and Hallowell
citizens will make preparations to attend
in large numbers. 1t will be the last
rally of the campaign and one OF the
largest and best.

We notice that the New York Evening
Post and Boston Herald are finding some
consolation from the fact that William
Gray, Jr., the defaulting treasurer and
suicide of Boston. was protectionist and
not free trader. We should like very
much to have these organs explain to
their readers what comfort they can derive
from the fact that the late Mr.. Gray was a
mugwump, and too good to support in the
last election the republican candidate for
President.
