PROMPT AND COMPLETE ACTION
DEMANDED.

No ono will question for u moment the
fact that the construction of Il thorough
system of sewers is tho most important
public Improvement that now claims
the attention OF the City Council.
Roanoke does no. want to move in this
matter in mere child's-play style.
Is is trGe that the sewerage system
must DO extended as the city grows, but
the immediate needs in this respect
should 30 provided for as early as ii is
possible for the work to DC done.
When he Council submits PROPOSE
tioD 10 the frecholdcrS OF the city to
ISSUE bonds for the construction Of SOW
erJ, tho amount of the bonds should be
sufficient 30 extend tho system through
the entire city.
Rudolph Herring most eminent
sanitary engineer Who has been engaged
to outline tho plans for u system, in an
interview with Tines representative
when he was in Roanoke, said that he
would recommend a system on Il basis
sufficient for Il much larger population
than tho present. While the main out
limos Of the system should be laid with
view OF an increased population. tn
Council should recognize the fact that
lsoanoters arc moro interested in the
supplying OF the present needs.
The health of the population and the
material welfare of the city demand
prompt and complete action.
thorough sewerage system can be
and ought to be constructed before the
summer season.

supposed to owe him.
But special;sm does not necessarily
narrow one down to one line Of thought

precedence be given to single depart

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.


Pacific Mail Steamers.
Assistant Superintendent Nadeau re-
turned yesterday from Tacoma. where he
had conference with other Northern
Pacific officials about matters pertaining to
the road. He reports that several changes
aud improvements viii be made in the ser
vice.
A two-story depot will soon be built at
Black river and regular freight and pas
senger agency opened. At present there Is
a telegraph agent there. A side-track will
also be built.
The station at Slaughter is also 70 be en-.
larged, the platform extended and . side
track put in.
The surveying party had nearly reached
Snohomish Junction yesterday. The west
side survey will soon be completed when
the east side of Lake Washington will be
run. The latter survey will take consider
able time, as the land is rough and covered
with thick underground.
Assistant Superintendent Nadeau said
yesterday that the matter of the Pacific
Mail Steamship line to China, in connec-
ton with the Northern Pacific, was in
formally discussed by the officials Friday
and it was generally understood that the
steamers had not yet been secured.
II have no idea said he, that the
headquarters Of the Pacific Mail will be
shifted from San Francisco TO suit the two
steamers run in connection with the North
ern Pacific. The steamers will not s,ay in
Tacoma any more than in Seattle and /
think they will prove equally beneficial to
both cities. The steamers will not be put
on for two or three months"
The change of management of the joint
track between Seattle and Black River
Junction was made yesterday and the
names of employees changed from the pay
roll of the Columbia Il Puget Sound rail-
road 10 the Northern Pacific. As soon as
the weather permits the roadbed will be
thoroughly repaired.
