THE b. & o. EXTENSION TO
ROANOKE

Under the above caption thu
Roanoke Times of recent date dis
oussed the movement thas is now
being agitated by interested par
ties in Baltimore, Lexington and
Roanoke to have the old Valley
Railroad completed southwark
from Lexington. 1t will be recall
ed that this project was abandon
ed shirty-five years ago, and eight
years later the road was completed
to Lexington. Southwark from
this point much Of the heavy work
has been done, such as cuts and
fills and heavy masonry for bridges
and culverts.
DR.. Hsatwoie of the Baltimore
City Council, has brought the mat
ter before that body, and has
urged that action be taken in the
matter, In cooperation with Lex
inxton and other towns interested.
The recent movement by the May.
ors of the Valley towns for better
train service in the Shenandoah
Valley, had much to do whitehall
ing attention TO the needs Of this
fruitful section of the country.
Mr., j. Med. Adair of Lexing.
ton, who has greatly interested
himself in this subject, recently
communicated with Mr.. L. B.
Davis, president of the Retail Mer-
chants Association of Roanoke
and thus expressed himself:
"We are trying our best to get
the Valley Railroad extended to
Roanoke, and would be glad to
have your people interest them
selves. 1t would help US all to get
this road to your place, and help
your city greatly to get it,"
The Roanoke Times and Roam
oke World are both interested in
the scheme, and these papers are
giving publicity 10 the matter.
The Times few days ago said:
"The occasion seems opportu ne
for Roanoke to make an active
move in favor of the extension of
this line. 1t appears to be the
psychological moment, for With
Baltimore and Lexington lending
assistance to the extension, and
with an abundance Of easy money
to be had for railroad building,
and the rapid development Of this
section, there are numerous in
ducements for the Baltimore d
Ohio to consider"

entered friendly suit in order TO
determine who was liable for main

recommended the same, providing
that Moses Bros. build the abut-
msnts to the bridge in concrete
and maintain the proper supports
and foundations to the bridge,
provided the town build and main.

ommendation was not acted on, by
reason of the fact that some speci-

Memorial to Stonewall Jackson
PrOnosed

-
Proposed
The Richmond Times. Dispatcl
o. Sunday last published the fol
lowing editorial with reference t
O memorial to Stonewall Jackson
If anything were needed to re
veal the place that the memory O
Stonewall Jackson holds in Virgin
ia hearts, it would be found il
the instant and fervent response
to the proposal to erect a grea
monument to him here in Rich
mond. 1t has been a long time
since any suggestion made by
correspondent of this paper has
elected so many letters all voicipf
enthusiastic approval. Some Of
these have already been printed
others will appear as space per-
mits. Taken together, they show
the strongest sort of feeling thai
the great Confederate genera
should not be left longer without
some suitable memorial. With
this sentiment, it is hardly hoces'
sary to say, the Times. Dispatch lie
in the heartiest accord. The stat
ue given years ago by English ad'
mirers, excellent as it is in its
way, cannot possibly be regarded
as discharging the South's own
debt of affection and honor to one
of the greatest military leaders of
all time.
The feeling is strong among our
correspondents that jackson should
stand near Lee. in symbolism OF
the close union between the work
of these two great men. 1t is de
sired now to pay tribute to the
one hardly less imposing that has
already been paid to the other.
The necessary funds are to be
raised by a general subscription
through the South, or through
the country. The general plan Of
procedure must be determined by
fuller discussion. 1t muht, un-
doubtedly, be preceded by the
of a jackson Memorial

and shapes, arc raised to much high
er levels, IL will result in an importing
movement OF foreign material, and APP
prchcnsion Is felt lest a marked up
turn i'm quotations might check the
