Roanoke,s Next Mayor.

From the Iichlands News
A number of prominent citizens of
Roanoke. having issued petition re-
guessing Mr.. e. c. Pechin to become q
candidate for mayor Of that city, that
gentleman, in a letter published in the
Sunday TIMES, accepts, with the thor
ough understanding that he will use no
effort to be elected-in other words, the
Office must seek him. In his letter of
acceptance Mr.. Pechin states that he
will, if elected, run the office the same
as he would conduct any business, with
thorough method and economical ex-
penditures. We have the pleasure of
knowing Mr. Pechin, and think that
Roanoke should be congratulated upon
sec ring the consent of such man to
run for tho Office of mayor.
We feel confident in saying that he
Twill be elected without the shadow of
Va doubt and that his election will prove
not only great benefit to Roanoke but
to South vest Virginia in general; in fact
we believe that Roanoke has done more
for Southwest Virginia in the way of
advertisement than any thing else. We
believe that Roanoke is the drawing
card for Virginia. Let Roam ike boom
and all other places of merit will boom
also. We believe that the selection of
such men as Mr.. Pechin to hold Office in
the new cities and towns Of Virginia is
move in the right direction and one in
which every one should feel interested,
and we trust that the press generally
will give vent to opinions in such way
as to influence public opinion enough to
elect him by an overwhelming majority.
FOR COMMONWEALTH'S ATTORNEY.
HAVING been urged in communica-
tion addressed to me appearing in THE
TIMES to declare myself through the
medium of the press, 1 respectfully an
nounce that [ am candidate for the
Office of commonwealth attorney for
the CITY of Roanoke, and solicit the
support of my..fellowrcitizens If elected
1 will endeavor to discharge the duties
of the Office with fidelity and zeal.
Very truly, EsToN RANDOLPH.
