The movement to secure a public
library in this city is meeting with
much success and deserves every en-
couragement from all the people of
Roanoke. With good public library
many of the incentives to idleness and
loafing would be removed from the
minds of young men and with other
means Of increasing their thirst for
knowledge many would soon be brought
under better moral influences. greatly
to their benefit and to the good OF the

TWO PAPERS FOR ONE
PRICE.
An Opportunity To Get The Star
and the Florida Citizen To-
gether at a Greatly Re-
duced Rate.

The Florida Citizen is now one
of the most complete newspapers
in the United States, outside of
the great metropolitan centers.
It's type is set entirely by ma
chinery, and its printing is done
on one of Howe's large presses.
Steam and electric power both are
used. and telegraph wires are car
ried directly into the office. The
best of material is employed in
every department, and most of the
members of the force are old and
experienced journalists. The news
of the world is obtained from the
Associated Press, and that of the
state from representatives station
ed in every important town. The
greatest care is taken to obtain
correct reports and to avoid false
and sensational rumorS. Particu-
lars of low criminalities and other
matter unfit for household reading
are excluded. In politics the pa
per is soundly democratic, follow
ing the principles laid down by
Andrew Jackson, and refusing to
lend itself to temporary crazes and
schemes for private advantage.
The Daily Citizen claims to have
a larger circulation than any other
daily south of Atlanta and east of
New Orleans.
The subscription price of the.
Weekly Citizen is 81 year, and
that of the Daily Citizen IS. We
will supply the Star and the
Weekly Citizen together for S., or
the Star and the Daily Citizen for
$1,000.
A specimen copy of either the
Daily or the Weekly Citizen can
be obtained by sending a postal
card to this office, or to, that of the
Citizen, at Jacksonville.

WILLIAM ]. BRYAN.

Whatever may be said of Will
liam Jennings Bryan ard his views
on the political question, he is
without doubt one of the most
remarkable specimens of humanity
IN the history of this country of
remarkable men. The New York
World thus records the campaign
of the western phenomenon: Dur
ing his candidacy he travelled ~
$50 miles, and made 5I5 speeches
in 423 towns and cities. On an
average he slept seven hours in
each twenty-four, made seven
speeches during the same time,
and travelled 10 miles. From the
first to the last his vigor was un-
tagging, and although his voice
occasionally gave evidence Of the
great strain to which it was put,
otherwise he seemed to be a man
of iron, equal to any and all times
to whatever calls might be made
upon his physical endurance.
Such strain upon human pow
ers has seldom before been under
gone, and none but man who was
in the perfection of physical and
mental health could have stood it.
But TO Mr.. Bryan the campaign
seemed to bring little Inquiry. His
indomitable will, tireless energy
and magnificent physique carried
him, without a scratch, through a
siege that would have proven the
death of most men.
1t is over now, and Mr.. Bryan
can rest from his labors with the
knowledge that he has set for his
follow citizens an unprecedented
example of energy and industry
