A had Year for TfOrses-Mrs. Watkins

the Trees Topics.
fFrom Our Regular Correspondent

TFrom Our Regular Correspondence
Mrs. Granville's sister, Miss Graham,
arrived on Tuesday last.
Mr. J. R. Hurst was here on a visit
last week.
Mrs. Watkins, during her absence,
fills several lecture engagements. We
learn that she has been asked to lecture
under the management of the National
Lecture Bureau. This is great honor
and it came unsolicited.
This seems to have been a bad year
for horses. Some days ago Mr.. Nix's
horse died. A few weeks earlier Henry
Koenig lost horse. Mr.. G. B. Pelton
has two valuable horses that might as
well be dead, being permanently dis
abled. Last summer Mr.. Westlake lost
a fine horse. And several other horses
in and near Lake Helen have died with
in about a year.
Mr.. A. Pelton has 6ne garden on his
lot adjoining Nettleton's grove.
Mr.. w. D. Sheldon is gradually i'm
proving.
Our carpenters are all at Hawks Park.
Superintendent Perkins paid our
school brief visit week ago, and ex-
pressed himself as much pleased.
Mrs. Nettleton has had several rooms
of her cottage papered.
Capt. Blake has sold the oranges of
his Beresiord groves, twelve and one
half acres, on the trees, for 81 800. What
other investment would yield so large
percentage on the outlay?
Collector Stillman paid his second
visit to our town one day last week.
There are about 800 boxes of oranges
onsthe old Prevatt grove.
There is much complaint of orange
stealing. Some folks need to be taught
a lesson, an impressive one-impressed
by charge of pigeon shot if need be.
Rev. Mr.. Tubbs preached yesterday,
and Rev. E. Macy will preach next Sun
day.
There was shower of county warrants
a few days agc-to pay the election
officers.
Fred Mcmillan accompanied the sing
ing on his bass viol last Sunday.
Property owners east of the lake pay
a good share of the town taxes, and they
have been wondering why no money is
expended in Improvements on that side.
DR.. flanders is now engaged in the
active practice of medicine. DR.. Mills
has withdrawn from his practice.
Two carloads OF shell from DeI.eon
Springs were received here last week by
G. B. Pelton and B. II. Wright, and used
for the Improvement OF walks in their
home grounds. This substance is said
to make hard compact roadbed, i'm
pervious TO even Bermuda grass. Capt.
Blake and Prof. Westlake will also try
it.

BALTIMORE AND RAILROADS.

Speaking of the Baltimore and Ohio
extension, under this head, the
Richmond Dispatch says: In Baltimore
on Monday Hon. II. $. Walker, OF West
Virginia, addressed Il meeting OF bust
ness men with the view of arousing
their attention to the dcsirability of
aiding in the extension of the Chcsa-
peakc and Ohio railway from Grocer to
Baltimore.
No action was taken on his suggcs-
tions.
At present Baltimore seems spending
her chief efforts to secure the extension
of the Valley road from Lexington to
Roanoke.
The Baltimore people know good
thing when they see it, and they have
recently discovered the value tho
extension of the Valley branch to
Roanoke will be to the trade of
baltimore. Quite naturally they are
therefore determined that tho extern
sion shall be made.
There are good reasons to believe also
that the road will be built at an early
date
When it is done it will be Il good
thing for Baltimore, Roanoke and all
the country along the line.

ROANOKE, VA, NOVEMBER 10, 1890.
ELECT TIE BEST MAN.

a number of the papers of the South
notably the Charleston Is. c. News and
Courier, favor the election of Northern
man as Speaker of the Fifty Con-
gress instead of Southern member
The only reason that can be assigned
for the position is a desire to cater to
the sentiment which has held for years
that it is best for the Democracy TO have
it's officials in national Office from the
North because of a war that ended
twenty-five years ago.
This idea may have been we'll enough
in the early days of reconstruction, but
it is high time now that such nonsense
was rid of.
The Democratic party is anything else
but a sectional party. If that claim
belongs justly to anyone. it is to the
Republican.
The next Congress will show ZIG
Democrats from the South. and 1lJ
Democrats from the North and West.
and even the most intense South haters
of the lsayne, Chandler, Kennedy stripe
cannot declare that the South is in the
saddle again.
The sensible men of the country land
the last election showed that sensible
men arc in the majority are tired of
having the war mado an issue in poll
tics, and the Democracy should assert It's
manhood and elect the best man for the
speaker, whether he shall come from
Georgia. Massachusetts, Tennessee or
Minnesota.
The party has abundance OF excellent
material from which to choose and has
no need to contine itself to any particu-
lar section.
