WYTHEvILLE.

WYTHEvILLE, Oct. e. Special-M
T. l.. Massie has gone East for the pur-
pose of employing more hands for the
Builders Supply Company here. They
have recently increased the number of
their hands from twenty to forty-two,
and MIR. Massie says this number will
have to be increased to 15O so great is
the demand for building
Two extensive brick manufacturing
plants are being organized under the
drying process, by which work may be
continued during the whole winter
This will make four brick companies
recently organized here. The stove and
range foundry building alone will re-
quirc half a million brick.
The development company has or
dered the immediate erection of ten
elegant houses upon their reserve
properties in the Trinkle tract. to cost
from $500 to 81, 900, work on which will
begin at once. Bids are invited for the
work.
The development company has voted
subscription of So. 900 to the Danville
and Southwestern Construction Com
pany; the Hedgetield company will, it is
promised, subscribe S25, 900, This COM
pany has been chartered for tho pur-
pose of building the Virginia and Ken
lucky railroad which crosses the Nor
folk and Western here. The right of
way for the road is progressing very
favorably, and the construction com
pany will meet in Washington in a few
days for final organization, and will be-
gin work on the road immediately there
after.
The Wythcvillc Development Co., has
approved the place of the buildings to be
erected by the Virginia Stove and Range
Co. They call for a brick building l05
by 100 feet, three stories high and will
undoubtedly be one of the most extern
sive factories in Southwest Virginia.
The contract requires work of construct
ion to begin within ten days, but will
begin sooner as the foundations are al
ready being stakcd off preparatory for
stone foundations. 1t is intended to get
the works in blast in 90 days. The De-
velopment company has granted them
block 10, which lies between Monroe
and North streets and about the center
of the Trinkle addition and contains
four acres. The entire plant will cost
$150,OOO.
The Development company has en-
ployed Mr.. Il. j. Curtin to take charge
of the grading of streets upon their
properties. A great deal more grading
will be done at once on the Trinkle
tract. Mr.. Curtin was foreman in charge
of the work of constructing the race
track at the fair grounds, which is pro-
nounced by turfmen as the best in the
South, and has been engaged for SOW
eral years with Major S. Walton on rail
road work, and is ono of the most sue

From the Salem Times-Rcgister.

SALEM, Va, Oct. 24.-The industrial
interests of Salem and Roanoke, or
Roanoke and Salem, are assuming such
dimensions and Importance that addi-
tional railroad facilities are very neces-
sary to the rapid growth of these cities,
and will be equally remunerative to tho
new roads themselves. The Norfolk
and Western has done wonders toward
the development of this section, and of
Virginia, and deserves the praise of all,
but the Norfolk and Western cannot do
the whole work.
Now is an opportune time for COM
mon and harmonious movement by the
citizens OF Roanoke and Salem to secure
the building of the Roanoke and South
ern to Roanoke and Salem; also, the
building of the Valley railroad to Sale m
and Roanoke. The charter of the Roam
oke and Southern takes it to Roanoke;
then u line should also be extended to
Salem. The charter of the Valley road.
as we'll as number of subscriptions and
one compromise, brings the road to
Salem; then line Should also be eX-
tended to Roanoke. Now, this is Il COM
mon sense, liberal view of the situation:
go" - AZ WV PiohpoiJ dHu HarluOnl-
ously acted on, would be sure to secure
DO h re ads for both places. Then let
the Roanoke river become the bead line
on which manufactures and all kinds of
good, desirable industries shall be
strung. The two cities would will
soon grow together. and the sooner we
recognize this fact and act upon it, the
better 1t will be for both towns and both
railroads.
Ii reports be true, majority of the
towns between Norfolk and Bristol lin
clusive) are secretly or openly working
for or talking for the Valley road.
Now the plain, disinterested, honest
truth is, the charter and natural term.i-
nus of the Valley road is Salem, Va,
but it should also go to Roanoke. /
move, gentlemen of Roanoke and of
Salem, soon to become twin cities-I
move that we put aside this one-sided,
all-or-none view of things and work for
both roads to both places. Then also
move that a committee from both cities
be appointed to carry out what is briefly
indicated in this letter. Who will
| second the motions
CITIZEN OF SALEM.
The above communication was handed
in by prominent and wealthy citizen
of Salem. We gladly give it place in
our columns and indorse it most heartily
There should be no rivalry between
Salem and ROanoke-we are too near
one, and should work together in union
and for q common purpose. Let us take
action a. Once.-EDS.
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1890-10-25
ROANOKE AND SALEM.

We are glad to see a spirit in Salem
which would draw that enterprising
city closer to Roanoke. One of the
leading planks in THE TINES indus
trial platform is that Salem and Roam
oke are one in interest and that they
will certainly grow together.
Nothing is more certain than that the
beautiful, undulating valley in which
both cities lie will become the seat of
manufacturing enterprises so numerous
and vast that the progress of to-day
will be looked back upon, within twenty
years, as merely an ambitious begin
ming. We predict (and claim no credit
for predicting) that within less than ten
years steam and electric conveyances
will run through continuous settle
tervals of less than ten minutes and
over no less than five different lines.
Now, let us go to few other cities
and sec the foundations of great estates.
In Boston-Thayer, Crockcr, Forbes.
On what do they rest? Early invest
ments in land.
In New York-Astor, Goelet, Rhine
lander, Trinity Church and scores of
Others-Land.
In Philadelphia-Th enormous Penn
estate, the Girard estate-Land
In Pittsburg -Darnley-Land.
In st. LOuiS-LucaS-Land
In Hoboken-Stevens- Land.
In Chicago-Long John Wentworth
Land.
In Washington = Corcoran, Riggs,
Glover, Willard-Land.
In Roanoke-What considerable for
tune is there here which is not directly
based on land?
We confidently assert that four out of
five OF the great fortunes of America
will be found to rest directly on land
and its rise in value. Now what can be
palmer than that the man who buys in
either Roanoke or Salem or along the
line of development between these two
places and has the courage to hold on, is
laying the foundation of enduring for
tune? We say courage to hold on, for
while it doesn't take much courage to
buy, it takes great deal to hold on
when an offer of goodly advance is
made almost before the purchase money
is paid down.

MIR. ELKINS' DILEMMA.

1t seems that brilliancy and plumbers
90 together. Hon. Stephen b. Ekins is
getting hot shot from Beersheba to
Ballyhack for stating in his speech at
Wheeling that the Mckinley bill took
pig tin from the dutiable list and put it
on the free list. 1t has been on the free
list for years and the Mckinley bill took
it from the free list aud made it dutiable
at four cents pound from July 1, 1898.
Now the brilliant and versatile Steve
Elkins has only one way of escape, and
to illustrate that pathway of retreat we
will repeat a story that Ex-Governor
Sam II. Hauser, of Montana, tells:
eve were chased up canyon in
Montana one day in this fall of &c."
says the governor, "by war party of
Cheyennes. Up we scrambled, between
walls 1000 feet in height, with the In
dams close behind. Suddenly the wall
closed in front of us in sheer precipice
$500 feet down. To advance was to be
dashed to pieces; to return was to be
scalped. Escape was impossible"
Here the governor always paused to
light fresh cigar, and some impatient
auditor always asked: but how did
you escape?"
ESCAPED" replies the governor.
