Pushing a Town.

ACTIVITY IN BUILDING AT BASIC CITY.
The cause of the scarcity of skilled mech
anics and unskilled labor in this section,
need not be hunted very far for. Our
readers will be surprised to learn that
there are nearly three hundred workingmen
paid off at the new town Of Basic City
every Saturday night, and there is call
| there for more workmen which, before the
month is out, will increase the number to
| about four hundred.
Engaged in building the hardware fac
tory, there are lis workmen.
In the erection of the car works there
are 40.
In building the iron furnace, at the
northern end of Basic City, there are SO.
On the new hotel, in the eastern part of
the town, there are 40.
Besides these, there are many engaged in
private buildings going up.
The Basic City Improvement Co. is put
ting up 10 buildings.
The Virginia Land and Loan Co. is put
ting ups.
G.. G.. Gooch of Staunton, and Judge
Gooch of Roanoke, are putting up 4.
And in addition the Basic City AdvGmce
newspaper, is putting up a brick Office; J..
+. Bowman is erecting residence; the car
works company is erecting a boarding
house, and there are smaller buildings
going up.
Gooch & Ryan the railroad contractors,
have contracted to grade the streets and
build the belt line railroad, which in few
days will bring 70 more hands with their
teams to the ground.
And in addition to all this, a brick MAX
ing plant is being put down which will turn
out 40, 900 bricks day.
So the new General Manager, Judge
Quarles, has his hands full of business.
1t is believed that the new hotel will be
ready for occupancy by the 1st Of Septem-
Der.
The town is attracting visitors and in
vestors to it as matter of course, for a
busy place always brings to it people from
the outside, and the management of Basic
City has from the beginning persistently
and literally carried out it's original idea of
making it manufacturing town.
The Superintendent Of the Shenandoah
Valley Ry. went through it this week and
seeing the busy scene, was SO impressed by
it, that he said his company would furnish
the superstructure for it's new belt line
railroad if the town prepared the ground.

MARKETS.
INDICATOR OFFICE,

STAUNToN. VA. June 10Th. !
Very little if anything is doing this week in
grain OF hay. Indeed, there remains very lit
tie grain in the country to do business with,
the old crop of wheat being sold out cleaner
than usual. 1t is not likely that another
car load OF old wheat will be shipped from
:sstaunton. Old stock of hay is about worth
less for market. 1t will hardly bring enough
to pay expenses of shipping. AS an illustra-
ton, one Of our Staunton shippers lost $3.50 on
the last cars shipped, an average loss OF $50
per car.
The first new Virginia wheat sold in Rich
mond, was bought, Tuesday, by the Gallego
Mills. It was Fultz, dry. and in good order,
