News is received from London that
negotiations for the settlement OF the
Virginia debt are making satisfactory
Roadway under the plan submitted
November IS.
This plan provides that the bondhol-
ders' committee shall surrender to Vir-
ginia all the obligations deposited I'm
der the agreement, and receive in full
satisfaction therefor such an amount of
new bonds as may be agreed upon be-
tween the committee and tho represcn-
tatives Of the State as tho maximum
amount upon which the State is able to
appropriate an amount annually for
the pavement Of interest; the new bonds
to bear such rate of interest, and TO
have such exemptions. and to be of such
character as the representatives of
Virginia and the committee consider
best calculated to give them the stand
ing they will deserve in tho money

ests Of tho States in the great Mississ

ests Of the States in the great Mississ
ippi valley are identical. Why, then,
should Missouri not act in perfect accord
with Iowa and Illinois? The interests
of the vast Appalachian mineral bolt
are identical in every part. Why, then,
should not Virginia and West Virginia,
Tennessee, North Caro- ina and Alabama,
be in political harmony with Pennsyl-
vanla, Ohio and tho great manufacture
ing States of the North and East.
If every American voter had, as q re-
quisite to voting, to show not only a
residence for twelve months in the State
where he voted, but also q residence of
twelve months in some other State,
party lines would get awfully SIN ashcd
and sectional prejudicss as political
levers would lose their hold.

CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.

One of the sure signs of Roanoke's
substantial growth is the increasing
demand for churches. and the number
of elegant shouses of worship now
going up or to be built this year.
AT every service the churches are full
to overlooking, and, to provide for the
growing congregations, more churches
are being erected. The beginning of
Calvary Baptist Church yesterday makes
the third church now in course of con-
struction, and four more are practically
let to contract.
One favorable feature of this church
building is the substantial character Of
the houses that are being erected.
Roanoke and the Baptists of tho city
are to be congratulated upon the begin
ming of this piece of architectural beauty.

MIR. SEYMOUR WILL OBJECT
To Darnall's Saloon in the Rear of His
Residence.

To Darnalls Saloon in the Rear of His
Residence.
Quite a complication in the saloon
business is about. to result in East Roam
oke. C. L. Darnall, who runs a saloon
corner of Fourth street and Third ave-
nue., is erecting a new building for that
purpose on his lot on Shenandoah ave-
nue.. The saloon will face the bridge
leading to the Roanoke Maching Works,
and lays directly in the rear Of j. NJ.
Scymour's residence.
Mr.. Seymour is raising pointed OBJ
jections to having the saloon so near
his property and says he will use every
Legitimate effort to, prevent it's being
placed there. The citizens adjoining
him will also object, and it is expected
that test case will be made of the
matter before the excise board. If the
license is granted by the board the
case will be appealed to Judge Robert
son.
Mr.. Darnall states that his saloon il
located their will be no nearer the
residences than at the point at which
it is now located. lie has begun the
erected of his building and expects to
carry the matter through, and keep an
orderly place.

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP

The Pro sidcnt has reached the Pacific
Slope. Two days ago he passed out of
that region peculiarly known as the
South. From Roanoke to Ell Paso lis
course has been crowded with a series
OF spontaneous ovations of unparalleled
warmth and the most hospitable char
acter. If he had been conouerinp
hero returning to his country after a
brilliant campaign he could not have
been moro cordially received.
Yet he was in section which did not
give him single electoral vote. Not a
single city which he visited is rcpre.
scented in the next Congress by Con
gresham OF his political faith. Not a
single Senator from single State
stands with his party in the upper
House. Yet we read of nothing but
ovations and speeches, national flags,
flowers and the clasping of hands.
What more signal tokens could be
given OF tho patriotism and amity oil

upon which party politics may meet i.

THE LESSON OF FINCAsTLE.

Fincastle has good reason for feel
ing elated over it's prospects of early
connection by rail with the outside
world. When the last spike is driven
and the link completed every marble
quarry in Fincastle will have doubled
in value. Such is the magic of rail
road.
What does it mean? Simply that a
barrier to free exchange of Fincastle's
products with outside products will
have been removed. There is lesson
in all this which the farmers of South
west Virginia ought to thoroughly alb
sorb. A railroad is me rely an improved
highway. Its presence has the most
the values of local products. because it
reduces in a marked degree the expense
of effecting the exchange of products.
The same is true in a less, but no
loss certain degree in the matter of
roads. The difference in value of lot
ON paved or unpavcd street is much in
ea cess Of the cost of paving. The differ
ence in value between the farms Of a
country where the roads arc poor and
one where carefully kept highways
admit of heavy loads is many times
the cost of building and main
tanning such roads. Good roads and
dog law ought to be the slogan of the
farmers OF Southwest Virginia in this
falls campaign. The Alliance has some
strength. Let it take up these issues
instead of being mislcd into attacking
the railroads by demagogues whose
prejndiccs are only exceeded by their
ignorance.

A Movement for Federation.

A delegation consisting OF members OF tho I'M
peIisl Federation League, headed by Lord Brassey,
| waited upon the Premier, Lord Sail, bury in Lon.
| don yesterday, in order to urge him to convoke a
con ference of the selfgovcrning British colonies
to consider the question Of partaking in the privi
leres and responsibilities Of united empire.
Lord Salisbury, in replying said that no was in
entire sympathy with the object the deputation
had in view. The question, no added was moth
ing moro or less shan the future of the British
empire. Lord Salisbury agreed with the deputs.
tion to the expectancy of an carly maturing OF
tho deliberations. The operation Of eternal causes
and impulses, he said, had created feeling of I'M
rest in Canada and Australia, which might not
improperly DO called an unwillingness to acquiesce
in the present state of things.
Continuing. Lord Salisbury remarked that a
large portion of the foreign negotiations and iii
culties arose entirely from tho colonial connections
of the ompro. Tho government, tho Premier
added, had to exercise great vigilance in order to
SEQ that it did not incur dangers which had not
arisen from it's own interests, but from the inter-
ests of the important communities with which it
wss linked.
After indicating tho iflicu!ties which the gov
ernmont would have to contend with in order to
mako united empire similar to the United
States which Lor Salisbury described as a zoll-
verein and kreigsverein, he concluded thst he
could not summon conference of colonial states
men until definite scheme ofimperiGl federation
had been prepared.
