THt: COTTON FACroKY.

Roanoke hao secured another impor-
tant industry. The establishment OF a
cotton factory in this city is q valuable
addition to our manufacturing interests.
Roanoke is we'll adapted for tho manu-
facture OF cotton, being in easy reach of
the cotton fields and there is no reason
why such an enterprise should.no pay
we'll here. The eG.a blishment OF this
plant will also open field that is com
paratively new here-it will give en-
ployment to women
To the board of trade large mount
of credit is due for bringing about this
result. For some time past the officers
of the board have labored faithfully to
accomplish this end. The board took
this question up at one of it's frst
meetings and has pushed the matter
ever since.
The gentlemen who now have charge
OF tho matter are all men Of experience
and ability, and under their manage
ment the new enterprise is sure to be
success.

THE PUBLIC BUILDING.

The public building question, which
has lain apparently dead for so long a
time, has at last been revived. District
Attorney Craig has finally approved tho
site and SO reported to the authorities at
Washington. Tho matter should now
be ruEhed through with all dispatch and
Roanoke provided with the building.
Mr.. Craig gives no reason for his DELAY
in forwarding his report, but now tina,
1t has been received at Washington the
question should not be allowed to rest
