JUPITER PLU INTERPRETERS.
Speaking at Christinnsburg-No
Boilers fn the County.

CHRIsTIANSBURG. VA. September 20.
(special.)-Old Jupiter Pluvius iHterfered
seriously with the preparations on the
part of the Republicans for their speak
ing to-day. A platform had been erected
out OF doors, and seats arranged for a
large crowd The leaders had worked
untiringly for the past ten days, run
ners were out drumming up crowd, ana
letters were written 10 prominent Re-
puhlicans TO see that a large attendance
was on hand to down the Democrats
How far these expectations would have
been realized cannot be known. as
steady downpour OF rain prevented even
the usual attendance upon court.
Driven from their stand by the wea-
Their they repaired to the Town Hall
Even then they were fearful that the
crowd would not materialize so persons
were stationed TO direct the faithful
where to go. The result was that some
hundred were assembled. one third or
more of whom were colored
Senator Flanagan, G. a. Harmans, and
j. Hampton Hoge were the speakers.
Your correspondent did not hear any Of
the speeches but one person WAS heard
to remark as he was leaving the speak
ing: wei. have always voted the Re
publican ticket but I intend TO vote for
Bryan this time"
The Democrats held their meeting In
the house. and were addressed By
Mr.. Don. p. Halsey, of Lynchburg, and
Major Otey.
The weather had the same influence on
the Democratic crowd but when the first
speaker was introduced he found before
him an audience OF at least lIj white men,
who sat patiently and listened TO a scalm
discussion OF the issues for more than
three hours.
This was Mr. Halsey's first appearance,
and his speech was pronounced by all
who heard him az forceful, logical, and
eloquent.
Numbers were heard TO remark on the
great Improvement made by Major Otey
as a debater since his last campaign. and
all are satisfied that the cause Of De-
mocracy was ably supported by these
gentlemen.
1t Is not known that the 'Boltocrats"
will get single vote in the county. nor
that there is any detection from the
Democratic ranks.
The Republicans are making great
noise and buster. but notwithstanding
this a number OF their former associates
will vote for Bryan and Sewall.
