day that twenty-one automobiles

farmers of the Venus country, and
bound for Ellis and Dallas coun-
ties. through inspection will be
made of the piked roads in Ellis

their own eyes, just what has been
accomplished in good roads build

do to come up with her adjoining
counties. The day is not far dis

BIO PAY ROLL

Roanoke. Feb. 16.-Nearly half a
million dollars will be paid out by
the Norfolk and Western in salaries
for January covering the trainmen of
the Shenandoah Valley, Norfolk and
Bristol divisions, the officials and en-
ployes of the general offices, wages
of the employees of the main shops
and the West End shops. In round
numbers the figures total $d35, 100.
divided as follows: Trainmen, $118,
$50: main shops $142, 5S5; West
End shops, $40. las; general Offices,
S125, 600. The trainmen will be paid
Saturday. the Oath instant.
This is the largest payroll in the
history of the system, and of this
amount most of the money will be
paid out and spent in Roanoke. The
payroll for the West End shops for
last month was the largest in its his
tory.
In this connection it is also pointed
out that with the improvements that
the system has undertaken, the pay
roll for February and March will rep
resent the largest Sums ever paid out
in similar length of time in the his
tory of the railroad.
1t is also notable fact, and of
particular and gratifying significance
that with other great trunk lines of
the West, Northwest and Southwest
reducing operating expenses the Nor
folk and Western has found it neces-
sary not only to increase its operating
force. but has found it imperative in
order to handle its rapidly increasing
volume of traffic to double track the
line between Lynchburg and NORFOLK;
the purchase of additional rolling
stock, and improving it's equipment in
every department.
These improvements and the ex-
pense that follows, all make for the
general increase of business In Roam
oke and the adjacent territory.

FIGHT FOR COUNCIL
WILL BE WARM
Pocahontas Has Two Demo
Tickets in the Field, One
Backed by Republicans.

Pocahontas is getting ready for a
warm fight for municipal officers this
spring" said prominent business
man from that town yesterday. "Two
Democratic tickets are being made
up for the fight, which promises to be
an old time one. in which the COM
panv will undertake 20 control affairs
as they have done in the past. One
ticket is known as the straight Demo-
cratic ticket; the other as an iudepen-
dent Democratic ticket. the latter
being originated and "daddied' sole
ly by the leading Republicans of the
town. Still it is called Democratic
ticket. The independent ticket is said
to be strongly allied with the Collier
les Company and that it will be back
ed by the company's means and influ-
ence. slt was reported the first of the
week that the grand jury would in
vestigate the recent activities of the
Company in their attempt to control
the affairs of Pocabontas. The pro-
gressiv9, independent citizens of
Pocahontas who favor fair elections
and an honest expression of the peo-
pie on matters pertaining to the con-
troll of the town, are determined to
end the activities of the giant corpo-
ration, who are charged with intimi-
dalton, threats of discharge, and
other violations of the election laws
of Virginia, and unless these activi-
ties cease a grand jury Investigation
may be expected.
1t is reported here that employees of
the Galleries Company have been
forced to resign from the straight
Democratic ticket.
The Galleries Co., as n property
owner. has been offered representa-
tion on the straight Democratic tick
ct, but positively refused to accept it,
but as compromise they offered
