NOT pRosAIC. BU1 PRACTICAL.

Cities and towns all around us have
been revealing of late, in the periodic
''chrysanthemum shows" which have
proved such popular feature of
autumnal days of recent years.
Let us here in Roanoke emulate their
worthy example.
Our people arc not SO wrapped up in
the race after the almighty dollar that
they do not love and appreciate the
things beautiful.
One Of the old philosophers was asked
on one occasion whom he considered
the best aids to religion. He replied,
the sculptors, the poets, the painters,
and the philosophers. According to his
argument, and the logic has stood the
test of many intervening centuries, the
cqxuisitc grace and outline OF statuary.
the beautiful products of the gifted
brush, the rhythmic wisdom Of the poets
pen and the symmetrical and evenly
balanced tencts Of the sage, all had,
and still have. Il refining and clevating
influence upon mankind. shedding
athwart the universe halo of civiliza
ton to better light the way for the APP
proach Of Il higher existence.
So, too. with flowers. They elevate and
refine. The city that has its parks and
green places, that cvinccs an admira ton
for the cXotics of the garden and hot
house is the place where culture exists,
where education follows close. and where
practical prosperity abounds.
1t is this same principle that asserts
itself in the architecture of IL commu
nifty, that makes Il people discomfort
with the old forms of the builders art,
and creates desire for more modern
and more beautiful styles of house CON
struction.
THE TIMES is practical exponent of
Roanokes growth, yet it nevertheless
possesses genuine love for the beauti-
full, the beautiful that enters into tho
everyday life of our people, or ought
to, and therefore we advocate such re-
filming influence as those eXerted by
flower shows, and that class of enter
tainments which find their richest well
come in some of the greatest centres of
industry and commerce of our country.

ROANOKE, VA, NOVEMBER 10, 1890.
THE REAL ESTATE CONVENTION.

THE REAL ESTATE CONVENTION.
We doubt if so important gathering
of business men has taken place in Nir-
ginia since the war as will be the con-
vention of real estate men which is
preparing to assemble in the city of
Norfolk.
To the men who will compose this
gathering is due much of the credit for
the commercial and industrial revival
that is now pulsating through the en-
tire State, and banishing before it the
gloom and discomfort incident to the
lowering presence Of tho State debt.
Their hopeful and cheering predictions
of coming prosperity created great
good humor all over Virginia, and have
become verified many fold. These men
are now indispensable adjuncts to every
community that possesses any life what
ever, and even in towns that have for
years been popularity regarded as
dead they have been known to turn
the wake into the iolliest kind of MGR
ry-making.
The fact of the matter is. as much de-
ponds nowadays upon the character of
the real estate men as upon the array of
natural resources the town has.
See the West for example. Look at
the young cities that have dotted the
map in recent years, that started from
nothing, and have known very few
natural advantages. The hustlcrs of the
real estate exchange did it with their
little tongues, their big brains. their
sleepless energy, and their jolly. hope
fulness.
Roanoke owes very considerable per
cent. to this class of workers, and TIE
TIMES takes off its hat TO them as they
assemble in their first convention at
Norfolk.

RICHMOND AND NORFOLK.

That the wonderful expansion in the
material interests of Southwest Virginia
has had salutary effect upon the older
Il well appreciated fact. The whole
State of Virginia has profitcd by the
boom to which Roanoke first gave inn

the steady swelling out Of their inside

Testing renewal of business energy
that presages great things for ''the city

Norfolk likewise has derived benefits
from the Southwest boom, greater even
than Richmond. Being one of the ter
mini of the Norfolk and Western rail
road, that city has been directly in touch
with all this industrial activity. MANY
of her citizens have struck it rich i'm in
vestrnents hercabouts, and with the
money thus made, they now propose to

the objects of which arc the promotion
of industrial enterprises and the more
thorough advertisement of the city's adj
vantaGes as site for manufacturing
and business interests
During the past year moro than a
million dollars OF outside capital has
been attracted to the city, and the com
ing year will chronicle the investment
OF an even greater volume of money
from distance.
There is certainly no reason why Nor
folk should not, in time, become the
Southern New York. It's harbor is one
of the best on the Atlantic coast. and il

occupies the key position to tho trade
of vast territory by reason of it's
waterways and numerous railroads.
With Norfolk's growth and Rich
mond's expansion, Roanoke and every
other town i'll Southwest Virginia will
he benefited. There can be none other
than the best of feeling between our
growing city and every place in the
State. Their development will only add
to the degree of prosperity enjoyed by us.
1t is only just to say also that both
Richmond and Norfolk owe quite good
deal of their present progress to the
enterprising press of those places.
