IN the Manufacturers Record.

From the Manufacturers Record.
Southwestern Virginia has long been
anxious to have the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad extend its tracks from LeXing-
ton to Roanoke. 1t is reported unofii-
cially that this will be done before
long. Should it be, all of the Pied
mot region of North Carolina will have
a new route to the West via the Roam
oke and Southern from Winston and
the Baltimore and Ohio from Roanoke.
The latter road will, by going to Roam
oke, secure a direcs line to Savannah,
Ga. A New York Tribune special says:
1.-The Savannah, Americas and Mont
gomery railroad is now about completed.
The Southbound railroad Columbia, S.
c.. to Savannah is also nearly COM
pleted. This line shortens the distance
between these two points about ninety
miles. The Southbound road at present
terminates at Columbia, but there is in
contemplation the building of line
from Columbia via Monroe to connect
with the Roanoke and Southern railroad
at Winston, n. G.

The Work Well Done.
From the Elkton Index.


THE ROANOKE TINES has issued a
truly royal anniversary edition of
twenty-four pages, profusely illustrated,
and full to overlooking with good things.
The industries of Roanoke and Salem
are pictured with the portraits of the
men who made them, and graphic des-
criptions are given of the inception.
growth and success of the magnificent
enterprises that have made Roanoke
truly Magic City,. The work is well
done, and reflects credit upon THE
TINES and its crops of newsgatherers
and editors. But THE TINES shows no.
thing more remarkable than itself. 1t
has grown in an incredibly short time
from very modest, unpretending sheet
to metropolitan size, circulation, in
fiuenco and, we believe, financial
strength. 1t is fearless in fighting cor
ruption as it is generous in praising the
good, and has lately been terror to
certain evil doors at home. May it's
years be many and its shadow never be
less,

THE REASONS FOR 1T.

Strange stories lie back of the meet
ing of the straight-out Republican con-
vention in Roanoke last Thursday.
The political wires which worked from
Washington are far more responsible
for the convention than anything which
lies inside the boundaries Of Virginia.
Col. II. G. Parsons is an astnte business
man, and man of a high order Of abil-
ity in certain directions. He was the
general instigator of the movement in
the State of Virginia, and is man &C
customed to big successes. Small mat
ters are not to his liking and do not
command his attention.
1t is significant thing that Col.
Parsons would not allow widespread
organization to he effected in favor OF
the straightout movement before the
convention. He deprecated and practi-
cally refused permission for the estab-
lishment Of q press bureau, nor did he
indulge largely in letter writing, to stir
mp the enthusiasm OF the straightouts
of Virginia 1t would have been com
political leader to have worked up
mass meeting OF from 900 to 1000 mem
bers in the present condition OF the Re.
publican party in the State. AS mat
ter of fact, there were less than sixty
delegates, representing less than one
dozen Counties.
The query then may be fairly made,
What was the inspiration which led to a
straight-out State organization in the
face of so slender an attendance, and
why was the attendance necessarily
kept at so low figure? AS said before,
the answer leads direct to Washington.
In case Mckinley is beaten in Ohio,
which at this writing seems improbable,
James G. Blaine will be the Republi
can candidate for President. In case
no such contingency arises, the renom-
ination of Mr.. Harrison seems certain,
and to this end Mr.. Blaine is believed
to be working in league with Mr.. Har-
rison, and is allowing the use of his
name to scare off weaker and opposing
Republican candidates for the Presiden-
tial nomination.
In Virginia the trap is set to catch
the bear both going and coming.
Through Colonel Parsons the straight
out Republicans, or rather the Blaine
Republicans, have captured an organi-
cation which is the only ono that could
be put aaeld against M. Harrison.
Now Malone can still control Republi-
can politics n the State. If two dele
cations should go to Chicago, one
headed by General Malone and the
other by these Southwestern Republi.
can kickers, it is safe to say that the
Virginia delegation will be cast either
for Blaine or for Harrison.

From the Shenandoah Herald OF Progress.
Tie Anniversary Edition Of The RoA-
NokE TIMES, of date September 90, leads
all the efforts we have seeu attempted
in Virginia in that particular line. This
issue Of THE TIMES consists of twenty
four pages, is finely illustrated and
very handsomely printed. Its matter
is of absorbing interest to every person
interested in Virginia progress and do
velopment, and the typographical work
reflects great credit upon the artists
who produced it. THE TINES is rapidly
taking rank as one of the great papers
of this country, and we extend our warm
congratulations to "the right bower of
THE TIMES" on this very successful
effort, possibly "the greatest effort of
his life" AS the Herald has no &C
quaintance with the balance of the staff

them. But we feel sure Pugh had a
hand in this excellent piece of work.
Success, we say, to THE TINES, to Roa-

Keeping Abreast the Times.
From the Bucna Vista Advocate.

THE ROANOKE TIMES, keeping abreast
with enterprise in journalism and as a
leading exponent of progressive de-
velopment in the Southwest, charged
its form one year ago to an eight-page
paper. The issue Of the Goth ultimo
was made up as an Anniversary Edi-
ton of twenty-four pages. 1t is richly
illustrated, presenting the city of Roam
oke with its wonderful progress in liv-
ing colors. The sketches also embrace
prominent places and industries in the
Southwest and along the line of the
railroads. All the pages are hand
.somely diversified in illustrations and
reading matter and will entertain with
a continuing variety of interesting and
spicy articles. In the personnel of the
illustrations THE TIMES presents in a
group the twentythree members of the
staff. We tender THE TINES our con-
CALCULATIONS on its growth and useful
ness and prosperity.
Forging Toward the Foremost Place.
From the Henry Bulletin.
The Anniversary Edition of THE RoA-
NOKE TIMES is we'll illustrated, hand
somely printed 24-page paper. 1t con.
tains concise history of the paper
from its foundation to the present time,
and reflects great credit upon the en-
terprise OF its publishers. THE TINES
has grown TO be one of the best an
most progressive papers OF Virginia,
and keeps forging away for the fore
most place in Virginia journalism.
From the appearance of its advertising
columns the paper must be appreciated
at home as medium through which TO
reach the public. Should Roanoke
continue to grow in population and i'm.
portanco as q manufacturing center
there is no reason why her papers should
not continue TO progress until there are
none better to be found.

a Forgery of 1t on a Check Presented at
the Nevada Bank.
AT noon yesterday middle-aged man
stepped up to the paying teller's desk at the
Nevada Bank and presented check for
$500 bearing the name of John s. Mosby,
the well-known ex-chsf of guerrilas. As
the check called for more money than Mos
by had on deposit, the teller asked the
stranger to wait n moment, and stepped
back to ascertain whether any arrangements
had been made with the bank for an over
draft of the account.
When the teller returned to the front
counter, the man who had presented the
check was missing. This aroused suspicion,
and a closer inspection of the check led to
the discovery that Mr.. Mosby's signature
had been forged Had the check-bearer
waited few minutes he would have re-
ceiyed the money, as the paying teller had
received instructions to honor the overdraft.
Captain Lees was notified of the forgery
but as the paying teller could not give de-
scription OF the man who had presented the
check the detectives have little hope OF cap
turing him.

Alice C. Fuller Throws Herself
Into the Bay.

Alice c. Fuller, rather pretty girl of
seventeen summers, was apparently in a
very Respondent mood when she left her
mothers house at 84H Everett street yester-
day afternoon and wandered toward the
water front. Arriving at Hathaway's
Wharf she threw off her cloak and sprang
into the bay.
Several men, who were working on the
Mail Dock, ran to her rescue and one threw
rope into the water, but the girl would
not seize 1t or make any attempt to save her.
self. Corporal Cockrill secured a boat and
with the assistance of two boatmen, soon
had the girl out of the water and on the
wharf.
The patrol wagon conveyed her to the
Receiving Hospital, where she was kindly
treated by the matr0n and placed on a cot
in thu female ward. In the cloak which
Alice left on the wharf the following letter
addressed to her mother was found:
Dear Mdmd-By the time you receive this l

The unhappy maiden ran away from
nome some time ago with worthless fell
low named Matt Kelly. Both were ar
rested, and the girl was sent to the Mag
dalen Asylum, from which institution she
was released three months ago She held
her head in her hands and moaned piteously
when CALL reporter stood beside her cot
and asked why she had attempted to drown
herself

she sobbed, ever since | was released from
the asylum. My mother was tired of me,
and kept constantly accusing me of things /

Letters and anonymous notes about me, and

was innocent of the accusation. She be-
lieved everything she heard against my
character, and this morning she told me to
go away or kill myself That is why | be-
came so Respondent and decided to commit
suicide"
The girl further said that she had been
working in a millinery-store, and went home
promptly every night after work. She said
that her mother works in saloon as a
waitress, and is very anxious to be rid of
her. Those who heard the girls story at the
hospital. promised to try and secure for her
a home in some respectable family.
