Where Are the Ice Waronse

EDITOR OF The TIMES: With the tenn

qulre: Where are the ice wagons, and
why is 1t tnas the public have not been
informed where we can get ice and how
much we will have to pay for Ii? / will
venture the assertion that in no other
city in the United States the sizs of
Roanoke is there such lack Of adyer.

there Is g concern in this town which
makes or sells Ice, why does It not in

newspapers?
J. am informed that Roanoke enioyed
three ice companies durin par. Of iasi
summer, but that before the season
closed com bination was effected. re.
sulting In one concern, thereby crea ting
q monopoly, and that this monopolistic
combination closed down two OF the fac.
tories, thus leaving only one plant to
supply the citizens Of Roanoke, and that
even this one was shut down earlv in
the season, before the final close of the
warm weather.
IL Roanoke to be treated to another
such experience thie year? The excuse
given Tor no. starting up the ice fac.
tory, after it had been closed down and
when another very warm spall Of VISA.

THINK what 1t would be to raise boys
where they could never see drunken
man There are boys and girls in pro-
hibition Maine who grow up to man
hood and womanhood without ever see
ing man under the influence OF intox
icating drink. And no other State Ia
the Union has so large an amount Of
money in the savings banks in proper
ton to the population. Saloons and
prosperity do not go hand in hand in
this or any other country.-U niontown

THE VIRGINIA LEAGUE SEASON.
The Opening Games Begin To-day With
Roanoke at Richmond

ANoahoko At HlCnm0nd.
To-day the season Of the Virgins.
League will open with Roanoke At
Richmond, Petersburg at Lynchbure
and Portsmouth at Norfolk. The
game in Lynchburg Tuesday discour-
aged some OF the orsnks, but as It was
only an exhibition game it cuts no
figure in the championship race.
The game to-day in Richmond will no
doubt be much different. Either McFalI
or Dusty" Coons will be in the box for
Roanoke, and If they can hold down the
hard hitting players OF the National
League clubs who played here there is
no reason why they cannot do the same
with Richmond.
The game will be reported in detail
this afternoon at the old Opera House,
where large number of admirers of the
national game will go to see what kind
OF showing the Roanoke's will make
against Jake Wells. "Blue Birds"
AS large number Of the cranks have
requested it, the Lynchburg- Peters
burg and olk-Portsmouth games
will be reported by innings. The
game will probably be called st
o'clock.
