IN JUSTICE TO MIR. BACHMAN.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES: In
yesterdays paper and under heading
I'm Blast certain meetings supposed
to have been held by furnaces IN en-, ore
producers, coke men and Norfolk and
Western railroad officials relative to re-
duction on materials and freight rates,
were discussed. Following and in con-
nection with this is an interview with
me in which l say depression in iron
business is due to overproduction, and
we're all the furnaces 10 follow tie eX.
ample OF the Grocer Iron Company iron
would in ninety days advance consider
able. The inference has been drawn
from my name being used at all, that
all the information came from NJ g, which
is not the case by any means. Your re-
porter came to me and asked me ques-
tions with reference to above named
meetings, and 1 declined empha tically
and positively to talk upon the subject.
Your reporter asked me from whom he
could get the desired information and
told him did not know. With most
emphatic denial of my having said any
thing to your reporter upon the matter
of above meetings, am yours. &c,
ID. |. BACIIMAN.
TIE TIMES regrets that anyone should
have inferred that information in re-
gard to the meetings was derived FROM
Mr.. Bachman Mr.. Bachman gave no
infor nation in regard to them whatever.

circuit courtroom and hall for gen
eral public meetings.
There is no suggestion that all of
these might be placed in tho Opera
House, but part of them might. Would
1t not be wise plan to reserve tho
Opera House for the citys own use? II
it is to continue in use US m opera
changes. But tho city has no large
place of public meeting other than this
hall, and every year more and moro de-
mands are made for such a place for
free popular assemblage.
Another and material point is pre-
scented for consideration. A number of
citizens of Roanoke arc erecting mag
nifcent Academy of Music. 1t will cost
| 9l00, 600 and will really be several years
in advance of the town. Such ventures
are seldom financial successes in the
in the first years, owing TO tho tremen-
dously heavy operating OK; enses. Yet
its projectors have had enough faith in
tho town and enough public spirit to
put in their money. If the old Opera
House is to be run in competition with
it, probably both will lose money, but
the old house will prevent the new
theatre from getting the last few thou
sand dollars which will stand between a
balance to the good and serious de-
ficit
Now TIE TIMES submits to Council
and to the public: Is it entirely right
for the city to be an agent of unwise
competition against SO crcditablo an
institution as the Academy of Music?
Especially so when the city needs the
old Opera House itself? Especially SO
when the tax on tho new building will
bring to tho city tho net rental value of
the old Opera House?

ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS.
Largest Convention in the His
tory of the State

SrRINGFIrLp, Ill, April 27.-GSpo-
cial l-Onc of the largest Democratic
conventions in tho history of the Stato
convened in this.city to-day. For FORTY
eight hours the city has been crowded
with delegates and politicians. Tho
atlnterest of recon- arrivals conferred
in the Presidential contest. The morn
ing papers published Telegram from
Senator Palmer expressing his de- sire to
leave the whole question to the cunven-
tion and indicating that he would not
be displeased to receive the positive in
dorsement and instructions of tho Him
ois Democracy.
This message from the Senator had a
somewhat demoralizing effect on the
gentlemen who had been insisting that
he was opposed to instructions but it in
spired his friends with an enthusiasm
that increased with each passing hour.
The result of all this was that when
the convention met i5 found tho Palmer
men aggressive and confident, and the
Cleveland forces slightly discouraged
but resolved to make vigorous fight
against instructions for the Illinois can
didate.
Immediately after the meeting Of the
various Congressional delegates and tho
selection OF committeeman, the commit
tee on resolutions met and began the
preparation of the platform. The ma.
terial points were quickly agreed upon.
The Mckinley tariff la " was denounced
and tho tariff planks Of the Democra tic
platform of 1854 and 1855 rea ffirmed;
the financial plank declares for gold and
silver standard, the establishments Of
currency that will he convertible With
out loss TO the holder and the fNiur of
the ratio by an International monetary
conference, so that purity may DO main
tanned and all the minis thrown open to
free coinage. Declaration is mado in
favor of electing Senators by the popu-
lar vote and an unrelen ting war on trusts
and combines designed TO degrade WACO
carnrrs is proclaimed.
The platform denounces the State
compulsory education law enacted by
the Republican legislature as ono Great
ing State supervision over schools
toward which the State con tributes no.
thing depriving the parent OF the right
to educate his child according to the
dictates Of his conscience and as an in
vasion Of that religious liberty guar.
anteed by the constitution.
Tx Congressman d. II. Williams, OF
Carmi, was made temporary chairman
and Clanter Crafts, speaker of the Him
DIS House OF Representatives, permanent
chairman. A. Z. Steve nson, A. w
Green, G. e. Crafts, Il. r. Gable, II. p.
Worthington, Walter l. Watson, John
a. King and S. p. Chase were elected
delegates at large. John P. Altgeld, of
Chicago, and Gen. John G. Black were
named as candidates for the nomination
for governor. Altgeld was chosen on

county, was nominated for auditor of
the State. Jos. b. Gill, of jackson
county. was nominated for lioutcnant-

FOR THE EXPOSITION.

THE TIMES is authorized by Chairman
VIM. G. Evans to announce that, owing
to previous engagement of the Hust
ings Court room, the Permanent Com.
mittee on Organization for the Decen-
nial Anniversary Celebra ton will meet
at the Commercial Association rooms
Friday evening at o'clock.
Every member Of that committee
should feel in duty bound to devote his
time to that meeting and to come pre-
pared for action. There should be no
dwarfing of what is to be attempted.
Make it big.
Every citizen of Roanoke, rich or
poor, should resolve in his mind that he
will BIO an active participant in making
the coming event tho biggest thing the
State has ever seen in this line.
The remarks of j. Allen Watts that
the Exposition be made a nucleus of the
exhibit to be made at the Worlds Fair
next year is in the minds of every one.
But the commercial idea should pre-
dominate. Those features should be
most developed which promise most
surely to draw visitors from distance
Those lines of display arc best which
will yield the largest profits. We want
to advertise Ro ,noke so that the era of
active development may be intensified.
That the names Of the Permanent
Committee may be kept for reference

JUDGE John P. ALTeELD. the nominee
for governor, is native of Germany, but
was reared on a farm in Ohio In 1864,
when he was 16 years of age. he enlisted
in the Union army and took part in the
James river campaign. After the war he
taught country school for time and
in the spring of 1869 trsmped from Ohio
to East St. Louis. and finally to north>
western Missouri in search of other en-
ployment. Here he settled down again,
and taking up the study of law was ad
mitted to the bar So sue
cessful was he in practice that be
soon sought the larger field of Chicago.
In 1885 he was elected judge of the SUI
perior court in Cook county by $1,000
majority, receiving 26, 600 votes from the
Knights of Labor alone. He made q
sound and incorrup tible judge. After
five years service he resigned to look
after his private business, having become
wealthy by judicious investments in real
estate. Judge Al geld has written q
number Of papers on Questions Of the
day, and is regarded as one of the most
mssterful and intellectual men in the

by o. J. Dimick, our ex-townsnan, now
living in Chicago. but who has still the
welfare of Rock Island at heart Long
may he live to enjoy the blessings of the
people OF this city for his Ren,rou gift
to the public among whom he had lived
so long.
Our parks. which are now OF the
most attractive features of the city, will
hereafter be recognized as one of the per-
manent departments of the city govern
ment. l Think a committee on parks
ought to be added to our list of star ding
committees who could consult with the
park commissioners upon all matters per-
tsining to thei- mai ntensnce and sdorn-
ment. Our park commissioners are pub
lie benefactors. Their labor has been a
labor of love with no compensation ex-
cept the thanks and gratitude of their fel>
low townsmen.
GENERAL EXPENDITURES.
The report of the city Clerk and heads
of departments are so full and CON plete
with such recomme ndations as they think
necessary. i. will not be necessary for me
10 say anything further than to have you
carefully consider sll questions that will
Increase expenses. Much will depend
upon our next years estimated revenues,
which will not exceed last wears The
strictest economy will have to be followed
in all departments; there is 70 margin
for tx.ravagance. Every expenditure
will have to be closely scruiinized by all
committees before ordered or contracted
for.

courtesies to me during the past two
years. WILLIAM McCoNocHIE. Mayor.
