SALEM NEWS.

manufacture its goods into clothing
will employ a large lumber of females
The early extension of the Baltimore
and Ohio and the Roanoke and Southern
to Salem will mako it an important rail
way center, and hasten its growth into
o largo iron, steel and general manufac'
turing and commercial city. Salon and
Roanoke, now rapidly growing together,
are destined to be the great industrial
center of Virginia.
The proximity of the great Flat Top
coal folds, the cheapness of the famous
Pocahontas coal and coke, the abundant
raw materials, make Salem an advan-
tageous point for manufactures.
Salem is tho most attractive town in
Virginia; and it may we'll be proud OF
its SUI passingly beautiful location, its
healthful climate, its refined society, its
fine churches, it's excellent schools, and
of Roanoke College, one of the leading
institutions in Virginia. Attractive as
a place of residence, it now offers un-
usual advantages for manufacturing and
general business. No other town in
Virginia has ever equalled Salem's
record of progress for the last twelve
months. The stage of experiment is
passed, and Salem is now firmly estab-
llSneQ on q SOllQ industrial OASIS.
The property of the Salem Improve
ment Company adjoins the old town and
is surrounded by the lands of other
strong companies. Being inside prop
erty, it will continue to increase in
value. The Norfolk and Western and
the Dummy Line to Roanoke run
through it and have their passenger
stations on it. The streets have been
graded and the town system of water
works extended through it. On College
avenue, which has been we'll graded and
~macadamized at Il cost of 50, 900, only
brick or stone buildings may be erected.
At he foot of this avenue stands the
fine new stone passenger station of the
Norfolk and Western railroad, and
on it the Hotel Salem, costing S65,-
600, exclusive of the land or furniture,
is under roof, the Improvement Com
pany's bank and Office building-5O by
so feet, three stories-is nearly ready
for occupancy, and a number of large
business houses have been built and
others are in course of erection.
This avenue is sure to become one
of the finest business thoroughfares
in Virginia.
Persons interested in locating plants.
or in making investments in Virginia,
should not fail to visit Salem. A
pamphlet of 80 pages, a map and
further information will be furnished
by j. w. ALLEMONG, President,
Salem, Va.

H CITY COUNCIL.
The City Fathers Discuss a Sew
erage System.
THE ROANOKE TIMES BUREAU,
HOTEL LUCERNE, SALEM, VA.

The city council met Wednesday
night at the mayors Office, and there
we're present Mayor w. I. Younger, and
Councilmen H~arveycutter, Chalmers,
Duncan, Francis, Shipman, and City
Attorney Logan.
The meeting was especially called to
consider the matter of sewerage of the
city.
The report of the city engineer, Maj.
l.. Chandler, on sewerage district No. 1
of Salem, was presented in person by
Maj. Chandler, according to the instruc-
tions of the council passed at the Feb
ruary meeting. The resolutions of the
council passed at that time provided for
the dividing of the city in as many sew
erage districts as might DO necessary,
one-fourth of the expense of seweriag
each district to be borne by the town
and t~hree-fourths to be borne by the lot
owners in each district, the amount as
sessed against each lot to be collected
as the city taxes are now collected.
Major Chandler reported as to the
best means of providing District No. l
of the city. This district is to extend
from College avenue on the east to
Water street on the west, and from
Main street to the river. The new pas
senger depot of the Norfolk and Wes-
tern railroad is in this district, and also
the new Hotel Salem which, while be-
ing on the cas- t side Of College avenue,
and belonging properly in District No.
2, will temporarily DO connected with
the pipes in District No. l.. South of
tho Norfolk and Western railroad Dis
trict No. l embraces all the lands of the
Salem Improvement Company between
tho Roanoke river and the Salem fur
mace.
Terra Gotta pipes were recommended
of the following dimensions 1S-inch for
the main sewer, 12-inch for branches
{cross streets); S-inch for ~laterals (al-
leys), and 6-inch for house connections.
The main eighteen-inch sewer pipe
begins below the bridge on Colorado
street, where it is to empty into the river
Roanoke, and will extend northerly
along Colorado street to near the foot
of the approach to the overhead bridge
across the railroad, thence turning west
erly it crosses the railroad at the foot
of Alabama street. 1t extends north
ward up Alabama street as far as First
street, where it defects to the west for
q short distance across Mr.. Oakey's
land to the alley at the rear of his prop
erty. Following this alley it crosses
Burwell street and extends up White
Oak alley to the rear of the houses now
built on Market street.
The mayor upon motion of Council
man Chalmers, appointed a committee
consisting of G. B. Fitzgerald, city
assessor; L. r. Boon, city clerk and
Maj. L. Chandler. city engineer; to re-
port to the council the real estate own
ers in sewerage district Nc. /, and the
amount Of PROPERTY to be assessed.
