THE PUBLIC BUILDING.

After months of weary waiting the
Roanoke postoflice site seems to have
been definitely fixed, settled and quieted.
The final deeds have been signed, and
all distractions to the closing of the
alley, it is stated on reliable authority,
have been removed. If this be so, the
intermediate steps to laying the
foundations are reasonably short. The
walls ought to be we'll started before
snow falls.
From conversations with leading Of
ficials of the Treasury Department THE
TIMES is in position to say that move
ment here to secure session of the
federal court would be looked upon
with favor at Washington. In case the
necessary legislation became q law an
additional appropriation of $4,000 to
add courtroom would be entirely
within bounds, and, if properly handled,
would pass both houses of Congress.
TO secure the federal court there
should be entire harmony and single.
ness of purpose In Roanoke. To the
Roanoke bar belongs the duty of first
organizing to aid in securing the court.
And to do this most effectively there
should be bar association.

There is u pretty general complaint
from the merchants on Salem avenue
over the REMEMBERING of the houses.
Under the ordinance directing this
work to be done one number Is allowed
to each twenty-five feet. If in this
space there were ten doors the number
could be cut into as many fractions to
mark them. AS matter Of fact, how
ever, no number has been divided into
smaller parts than fourths, but even
this is claimed to be an inconvenience
and is causing considerable dissatisfac.
ton. The blocks on Salem avenue are
unusually long and 1t would be diff
cult matter to mark every door or apart
ment by an entire number unless the
limit of hundred to the block were
considerably exceeded.

HOTEL GRAHAM.
\ Delightful and Healthy Mountain
Resort.

Special Correspondence of The TIMES.
GRAHAM, Va, Aug. l6.-King Ludwig,
of Bavaria, once tndulged conceit to
build castle upon crag of the noun
tain and he called 1t "Hoenswaugow."
II Ludwig had seen the spot upon which
is erected this, our "Hotel Graham" I
am sure he would have chosen it instead
of that in his own country, not that we
have the beetling crag. or the frowninp
precipice, or the snow clad mountain
top, but moro attractive spot could
hardly be imagined.
A singular upheaval Is this upon
which the hotel is built. 1t seems as
though Dame Nature had wished to
survey her finished structures surround
ing this enchanted valley, and that she
might the moro conveniently view her
handiwork, she caused the elevation to
arise, upon which she could calmly
commune and witness the beauteous ef-
feet of her will.
Those whose poetic fancy lead them
into revery, can here indulge their
hearts best thought and here the artist
can sit upon the broad verandas OF the
hotel and sketch and dream of fairies.
But all is not nature and poetry and
fairylaad; the practical requirements of
daily life are thoughtfully provided by
our popular host, Col Hardell, and as
our guardian angel the colonel takes
heed lest at any time we should want
any of natures bonuties.
When Hotel Graham becomes moro
generally known many traveller will
rest here for day or two on their way
North or South. for we occupy about the
center between New York and New Or
leans, and with the Louisville and Nash
vile connecting South, the Ohio extern
sion giving an outlet West, there will
soon be vast throng OF those who move
to and fro OH the earth passing this
point every day.
Then the patrons of the seaside re-
sorts on their way South will find this
q most desirable retreat and may linger
here, where August is like spring and
the leaves begin to turn weeks before
that change ensues in their Southern
homes. Over 1900 feet above the sea,
within three hundred yards of the pas
senger station, at the junction of three
branches OF the Norfolk and Western,
with every comfort and many more lux.
uries than the average home can afford,
with endless continuity of shade, this
lodge in the midst of fairyland should
and will have its capacity taxed as soon
as the pleasure-loving public learn of
its ways and is wise. e. A.P.

RECENT FIRES.

Roanoke Breaks Her Former Record In
the Matter of Confagrations.
Roanoke has had more fires within the
past two weeks than at any other period
OF the same length Of time since she has
been city. On August the house Of
j. 81. Kennerly, on the corner of Tenth
avenue and Fourth street, was totally
destroyed. The loss was estimated at
$500, fully covered by insurance. The
same night the store house of Saul &,
Bowman, on the corner of Fourth ave-
nue. and Jefferson street South, was
damaged to the extent of S45. 1t was
covered by insurance. On the night of
August house, owned by John Davis
In the Hats, avas set on fire, as it was
not occupied, and damaged to the ex-
tent OF about 500, which was fully in
sured.
On August 10 Taliaferro's house on
Railroad avenue was almost totally
destroyed. 1t was occupied by C. j.
West, who ran grocery and bar-room.
The insurance will cover the loss of the
building. The stock of goods was in
sured for 81, $780,
On August IL the top on a box car
was burned off on Shenandoah avenue,
anu eHo iOoS Is oSGlIua CoQ at SSOU.
On August 10 the Southern Vinegar
Factory near the brewery was discovered
TO be on fire. The east end of the build
ing, with all the machinery and vinegar,
was totally destroyed. The loss was
estimated at $4,000 with So 200 insur-
ance.
On August IA the house owned and
occupied by Thomas Penn on the corner
of Sixth and Gainsborourh avenues.
was totally destroyed with 81, 200 in
surance, which will exceed the loss.
On August Is the brick yard of Adams
Bros. IL Paynes at the Franklin street
bridge, which is out of the fire limits,
was burned to the ground with all the
machinery, carts, wagons. etc. The
loss was estimated at S25, 1000 with an in
surance of $4,000.

CONVICT LABOR.

The. miners of Tennessee have taken
q very determined stand in regard to the
matter of convict labor and unless the
convicts are Immediately withdrawn
bloodshed is sure to result. So far the
miners have been victorious, but, of
course, their victory is only temporary.
Should the State militia fail to subdue
their assistance, and the regulars will
soon bring the mob to terms.
The convict labor system has been q
bono of contentio on in this region for
long time, and the mutterings of this
outbreak have been heard for years.
When the special legislature met after
the Briceville affair it was the general
impression that the lease system would
be abolished, but no definite action was
taken. Since then the free miners have
been outspoken in their denunciation
of the system, and gave fair warning of
what has come.
The authorities can never hope to
have anything peaceful until they
abolish the obnoxious system. No
matter what course is taken to suppress
the present trouble it is bound to crop
out again and will continue to do so
as long as convicts are employed at the
mines. 1t is very probable that the
next session of the Legislature will
abolish the lease system. In the mean
while the indications are that there
will be bloodshed within the next forty
eight hours.
