AN INTERESTING QUESTION.

Property Holders Anxious to Know
Whether or Not They Can be Assessed.
Can property be assessed for work
which was done on the streets prior to
tho passage of the new charter?
This is question that has informally
come up, but SO far the authorities have
not needed the matter at all. Section
Z, chapter III, Of the new charter, gives
Council the power to assess the AUDITING
property owners for any improvement
which benefits the property. AT the
same time it is in the discretion of
Council to have all street and sewer i'm
provements done by tho city. Tho
question is, Can the people be assessed
for the improvements which arc now
being made?
Mr. Watts was seen yesterday but do
clined to give his opinion on the sub
iect. BEING member of Council, he
might give an opinion that would con-
flict with that of the city solicitor and
create wrong impression on tho part
of the people.
Mr.. Miller would not give his opinion
on the subject either, as the matter had
not como up.
But prominent city official informed
TIMES reporter that it was not the
intention of Council to levy an assess
ment on the property holders to pay for
the work which was ordered before the
new charter went into effect. AS the
matter is not likely to be brought be-
fore Council it is probable that the
question will not be agjtated.

COMMENCE MONDAY.
New Police Justice to open
Court That Day.

w. H. Turner, the newly-elected
police justice, will hold his first court
Monday morning. Mr.. Turner had a
consultation yesterday morning with
City Solicitor Miller and Mayor Evans,
and as it was construed that the police
justice should be bonded officer and
as the bond was to be fixed by Council,
it was decided to arrange that matter to
come up at the meeting of Council Fri
day night.
Mr.. Turner will be ready to give bond
by that time, and the mayor will make
his appointments of the police force.
The whole machinery will then be put
to work on Monday morning under new
rules and regulations.
Justice Turner has not yet decided
how he will conduct court, and what
hours will set for the trial Of cases.
The conduct of the station house will
be under his supervision, subject Of
course to the approval of the mayor,
but he will have no jurisdiction over
the police force. other than to see that
the laws of his court are complied with,
and that policemen perform their duty
when arrests are made.
Mr.. Turner was born in Front Royal,
Va, in August, 1868, and is probably
the youngest police justice in the coun-
try. He read law with his uncle, Maj
8. S. Turner, for several years, and
came to Roanoke in Novem Der, 1889.
He was soon afterward admitted to the
bar, and is considered as sound legal
adviser. The new justice looks older
than he really is, but is as steady and
settled as many older men.

IT. Dc. Reynolds, of the Norfolk and West
ern, in the. City Yesterday.
Capt. T.. E. Reynolds, of Lynchburg,
who filled tho position of chief train dis
patcher on tho old Virginia and Ten
nessee railroad, and subsequently on the
Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio under
the presidency of General Mahoae, was
in the city yesterday.
Captain Reynolds is now in his Goth
year. and the Norfolk and Western au-
thorities, in pursuance of the liberal
policy which characterizes its manage
ment, some time ago placed b i'm on light
duty with good salary.
He is the same genial, entertaining
gentleman he was twenty years ago and
adheres rigidly to his rule never to use
tobacco, liquor, coffee, tea, meat, fish or
fowl in any form. Occasionally, when
exasperated. the captain may drop an
expression that orthodox Christians
would at least torn inelcgant or naughty,
but In all things else he lives up to the
golden rule.

II IL be my consolation of the Demo.

they arc not so badly off rs they were
three months ago. Then President
Harrison appeared TO have quite an
easy road to the renomination, and the
Western silver State had not yet come
out in open revolt against the time hon
ored policy OF the party. While Mr..
Cleveland remains the popular choice
Of his party, his nomination is menaced
by expediency rather than by antagon-
ism. Enm'iy to Harrison, more than
love for Blaine, animates the minds
and guides the actions OF the opponents
OF the present Executive. Reviewing
tho proceedings Of the various Demo-
cratic Conventions, taking the consen-
u OF the party press, no impartial
man would dispute that the weight OF
evidence, as regards the preferences of
his party, is with the candidacy of Mr..
Cleveland. Whether lie be nominated
or not, the numerical strength of the
lIillites and his active opponents will
le inconsiderable. The one problem
which may give concern relative to the
nominee will be Mr.. Cleveland's avail
ability In connection with the division
In his party In New York. So far rs

ity. courage Of opinion, high and firm
purpose, devotion 10 conviction, impa-
