THE NEW COUNCIL.

The new City Council will elect a
president tonight. The result seems
at present to be a foregone conclusion.
The committees Will be re-organized on
a strictly business basis, aud work will
be pushed as rapidly as finances. will
permit.
One plain duty which lies before the
Council is the appointment of select
committee to visit neighboring cities
and examine into methods and systems
of paving
And one worl on that 1t is as easy
AS falling off log to discover the
merits of any system wat the COM
mit.cc should do is to discover the de-
fects of each system, and to W hat extent
such defects 80 toward rendering any
pavement impracticablc and unsuitable
for Roanoke
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1891-07-01
THE PUBLIC BUILDING.
A Talk With MIR. Window, OF
the Postoffice Department.

Mr.. ii. d. Window, of the United
States Postof}lce Department, is regis
tered at Hotel Roanoke. lie arrived in
the city Monday from Staunton, where
he has been for several days in the in
tercst OF the public building at that
place.
Mr.. Window was driven around the
city yesterday by Postmaster Asberry,
and expressed himself as being much
pleased with the city. During the after
noon and evening he had a number of
callers, among them being DIR. Gale.
Mr.. Window is son of the late Sccre-
tary Window. lie has striking coun
tenance, is thoroughly business-likc
and seems to take matters with appar-
ent ease.
lie was seen last night by TINES re-
porter and said in references to the pub
lie building:
Il am here to receive bids ON num-
Der of suitable sites, and to procure
estimates OH material, ard in short, TO
report every detail necessary TO the
erection of the building.
Il will make my report to tho Secrc-
tary of the Trcasury,wh will select the
site from among the number thus re-
ported. Plans and specifications will
also be received by him, after which
bids will be adveI tiscd for certain
length of time in some Of the leading
builders journals
1.-The site will then be examined by the
encouragement TO prove the title and
fully insure the government against any
future trouble that could possibly arise.
The building will be of brick with
stone trimmings, and will be about 40xSO
and possibly two stories high. / cannot
fully see the advantage of q second
story for a postotlicc, as all the business
will be done on the ground floor. But
If there is money enough left after pur-
chasing the lot the building will be two
stories high, if only for the appearance.
1t must be remembered, however, that
the amount to be expended is limited to
$4,000 There is no limit to the site,
but it must not be SO high as to leave an
insufficient amount for putting up the
building.
II have received offers of seven sites
already. Some of these are very desir-
able, but some two or three are entirely
too high. The sites must have Il front.
age Of not less than l2O feet to insure
the necessary space of 40 feet from
other buildings on either side.
II cannot say what location l most

THE RoANoKE AND SOUTHERN.

Rumors from Baltimore as to prob
able absorption of the Roanoke and
Southern by either the Norfolk and
Western or some other line running in
from the North lack confirmation or
present reason.
The road has progressed at rapid
rate for the past year and the financial
support it has received during the fin
ancial stringency of the past winter and
spring is 4 triumph due to the skill
and energy of Col. f. Fl. Fries and his
associates.
The road will be far stronger if it has
Roanoke for its Northern terminus and
then turns its energies toward Southern
extension, than if it becomes Southern
feeder or outlet for any single Northern
road.
BY preserving a strict neutrality and
independence it will be in position to
derive benefit from every road which
may come to or through Roanoke with
out becoming subject to any.

a STABLE NATION

Ex Secretary Bayard never fails to
throw strong lights on every subject he
disc uses. In his recent address before
the law students of the University of
Michigan he directed attention to the sta
b'lity of American intitutions. The
United States, he declared, was one OF the
Oldest Of nations. For over a century it
had preserved its constitutional forms
of government, and despite the destruc.
ton of slavery was in spirit the same
to-day as hundred years ago.
Yet in conservative Great Britain a
century has seen the destruction Of the
Irish parliament and radical changes in
laws, spirit and TENDENCIES. France has
changed from republic to monarchy,
empire and back to republic more
centralized than monarchy. Spain
has been the seat of revolutions. Italy
and Germany have been welded into
nations within two generations, and
Poland dismembered since the United
States became nation.
MIR. Bayard is right. The United
States has tho essential elements of
stability, and its several tests have
merely proved the strength of that
liability

WASHINGTON, June 3O.-TSpecial =
Secretary Rusk was to-day asked for
statement of his views and intentions
regarding tho future conduct of tho
weather bureau, which, as provided Cor
by the act of Congress of October /,
1890. will to-morrow be transferred TO
his department.. Referring TO his last
report to the President he pointed out
the following passage:
81 deem it evident from the discus
sion which attended the passage OF the
act and from the wording Of the act that
in making this transfer OF the weather
bureau 20 this department it was tho
intention of Congress that tho work Of
the bureau should be extended in SO far
as might be n .cessary to assume the CO.
operation of this branch OF tho >ervice
with the work already established in his
department for the benefit Of agricul-
turc without in any way restricting its
general scope" adding that he proposed
to carry out to the full extent as he UNI
derstood it the objects which Congress
had in view in transferring the bureau
to the Department of Agriculture.
The Secretary said that he could sec
4 great many ways in which meteoro-
logical science could be made beneficial
in cooperation with many of the pres
ent divisions of the Department. of
Agriculture, and he believes that in
course Of time his expectations can be
fully realized. In the meantime he
proposes to perfect as much as possible
the dissemination of the weather fore
cast throughout the agricultural dis
tricts, and one of his first efforts will be
directed to the accomplishment Of this
purpose.
