BOND BROS. CIRCUS.
The Big Show VIII Exhibit Here
This Afternoon and Evening.

This Afternoon and Evening.
The city council has adjusted The circus
difficulty satisfactorily and now all is
peace.
On Tuesday night last the council fixed
the tax for Bond Bros circus, which
shows here today and tomorrow, at the
circus exhibiting here three days next
week, was given the same privileges for
SZ75. This fragrant discrimination inaugur-
ated the warmest circus war Salt Lake
has ever seen, but it soon became evident
that the council had acted in the matter
under a n1isapprehension of the facts, and
justice was speedily done. President
Newell received kilograms yesterday from
Hon. +. E. Foot, of Evanston, Judge
Knight, of Green River, Mayor Spencer
and Chiefs Davenport and Binford, of
Ogden, where the circus was then show
ing, stating that the circus people were
quiet and orderly, and in every way de-
serving of fair treatment.
MIR. Joseph Dryfus, representing the
business end of the circus, arrived from
the matter so forcibly to the authorities,
that at the committee meeting last night,
the members of the council agreed to
treat the show as it would any other,
and that portion of the license in excess
of the regular charge will be remedied
next Tuesday night
Mr.. Dryfus has invited the governor and
other state officials, the mayor and coun-
cilmen to attend the performances.
The circus will arrive early this morn
ing and performances will be given at 2
and s p. m.
The parade will be given at about Il a.
IN. The menagarie, by the way, has had
quite an addition in the shape of two
cub lions, which were born at Park City
on Wednesday.

HOTEL AND CORRIDOR.
x;sssssccsssscc,,ssc,ssc2s..y,so>;2sos,,occo.oo

One of the Washington Cd. c. hotel
proprietors was heard telling most
pathetic little story to a clerk in one
of our leading hotels during the VISIT
of the H. NJ. NJ. B. A. to our city
some days ago.
He is the proprietor of an uptown
Washington hotel, and one of the best
known landlords in the country. He
began:
There is a certain gentleman who
comes to Washington every little
while all alone. He stays at my hotel
and invariably registers two names on
the register-his own and that of an
other
1T is nearly five years since he be-
gan coming TO the hotel, and the name
that always follows his own is that
of his son, who has been dead about
three years. The case is full of sad
ness. That man makes regular trips
to the city, and before the boy died
he used to bring him with him. He
was bright young fellow, some 1G
years of age, and his father was per-
fectiy devotedato him. They always
shared the same room, always went
together and seemed more like chums
than father and son.
But the hoy died. Shortly after
ward his father came to the hotel,
but he was not the same man. He
was all in black, and his face was
full Of grieH as he walked slowly up
to the desk and registered He wrote
his own name, and then, just as for
merly, that of his son beneath.
MY clerk called his attention to it,
but tears came into his eyes and he
said nothing; Sc the subject was i'm
mediately changed.
Ever since that day he registers in
the same way, but he never speaks
of his boy who was called away

WHAT THE MAGIC CITY NEEDS.

One of the most gratifying facts in
connection with this city is the ateadi-
I ness with which 1t has held its own
amid all the mutations OF the country
since the decadence of the local boom
and the period Of general business de-
preston, which last has been go trying
to every interest Of the whole nation.
To say that the people here have not
suffered losses during the past six years
would notbe true, for along with older
communities Roanoke has felt the full
effects Of the panic, while the evil re-
suits OF speculation in boom days have
also left visible marks in all direc tions;
but this WAS the experience OF many
older places. some Of which are suffer
ing far more today than the Magic
City of the Southwest.
On the whole, our people ha We many
things TO be thankful for. The popula.
ton which for time fell off to some
extent has been steadily increasing in
the past eighteen months until now it Ia
as large IS at any time during the boom
period. Real estate agents report all the
desirable residences as occupied. with
but few buildings empty anywhere In
the city limits, and nearly everybody
who desires to work is employed. There
Is practically no idle or floating popula-
ton in the city. and there is q good de"
mand for all grades Of improved property.
Most of the large industries here are in
successful operation; several smaller
ones have lately been started and others
are contemplated. In fact. small indus
tries are the the great needs Of this city,
and the successful location of as many

IMMIGRATION TO VIRGINIA.

The secret OF the rapid growth and
development Of the Western and North
western States Is the thorough manner
in which the immigration question IL
handled by the live, energetic and pro-
gressive business men of those sections
The results Of systematic work have
been surprising, but many who were
hufr!edly induced to seek their homes
in the Northwest have since regretted
the step and are looking Southwark for
safer and more comfortable places Of
abode. Not only is this true OF that
section, but many in the North and In
Europe are also thinking seriously of
emigratipG to the Southern States,
where all the advantages OF genial
climate. cheap lands and good social
surroundings are offered them.
Among oil the States OF this section,
the claims Of none for immigration are
superior to those of Virginia. and If
her people go to work in earnest to
induce the right kind Of settlers to
The Roanoke daily times. (Roanoke, Va.) 1895-1897, 1896-06-06

The action OF the Democratic con-
vention at Staunton in adopting the
unit rule at the last moment WAS some
what OF q surprise to the public after
reports to the effect that 3 compromise
on this point had been effected; but.
after all, the friends of silver have
done no more, perhaps. than the Sound
money" men would have done under
similar circumstances. Being anxious
for the success Of their idea at Chicago,
they were unwilling to take any chances,
and so resolved that the chairman should
cast the vote OF the whole delegation.

BRINGING OUT CANDIDATES.


The silver wave which Is sweeping
over the country in the Democratic
ranks, and the consequent talk of can
didates, is bringing many men to the
front, says the Washington Star. Sens
ator Vest himself has friends who be-.
lieve that he should be the nominee.
One OF the latest suggestions Is the
name Of Senator White. Of California.
His friends urge that his nomination
would leave no doubt that the West
would be solid for the ticket They
also urge that his record on the silver
question had been steadfast; that, while
he has been outspoken for silver, he has
not heen obnoxious, and that there
would be less opposition to him among
Eastern Democrats than to any other
man. There ia also . certain amount
of talk about Governor Altgeld, of
Illinois, as q Vice. Presidential possi-
bility. General Warmers name Is
frequently mentioned. He was Dem.
ocrat up to the time Of the silver con-
ference in January, when he made his
further party allegiance. like Tillmsn,

man ct Chicago.

as possible should be the aim of our
citizens.
Every nation or community should be
self-sustaining as far as possible. The
more either can rely on it's own re-
SOURCES the more independent 1t Is of
the rest OF the world. A nation that pro-
duces all 1t actually needs and uses Its
surplus for limited amount OF luxu-
ries Is to be envied, and a community
that spends most Of Its money at home
always has good cash balance in the
banks. So IL should be with the peo-
pie Of Roanoke. The fine agricultural
country surrounding them will furnish
full food supply. and with industries,
small and large, to furnish them en-
ployment and the means of meeting
their daily necessities, there need not
be very extensive drain on the re-
sources OF ths community generally,
inasmuch as under such conditions one
dollar in cash would do duty for many
and ell would remain here much longer
than otherwise.
AS to small Industries the indioations
strongly point TO substantial increase
OF these In this city. Within the past
few months B. A. Jones has established
here factory for making baking pow
ders. which is already giving employ
ment to many Roanoke people. among
them being number of girls, while the
product ia selling rapidly in Southwest
Virginia. The candy factory recently
established here has increased in size
rapidly and ia doing good business.
The creamery is also success, and the
soap factory, Of which mention was
made In THE TINES few days ago, bids
fair to become permanent and pros
porous industry On the whole, the outs
look for our city is very good. Her
people are united in their desire for the
public welfare, and nowhere In this or
any other country are the citizens more
patriotic and selfsAcrificing. All are
devoted to their mountain home and de-
termined to make it the gem OF Vir.
ginia and the South, II faith In the fu-
ture and active work can accomplish
their desire.
