present supply begins to be exhausted
the price will 60 up. The TRIBUNE
takes this position, and advises that
farmers heed the above, wherever they
can, consistently, with their financial
circumstances. Of course, if farmers
are in debt, and paying interest, it
would, perhaps, be better for them to
sell at once, but if they can afford to
hold off. it looks advisable from a fnan-
cial point of view.

Some good, sound advice is contained
in the above letter. It is a fact that last
year many farmers held their wheat, in
expectation Of an increase in price, and
were disappointed, the price going down
instead Of up, and many farmers losing
money thereby. The rush Of great
amounts Of wheat to market can have
but one eefect-that Of lowering the

U. X. GREEN.

An April Fool Joke Played on Real
Estate Hustler.
One Of Roanokes most hustling and
popular real estate men received on
Sunday morning, business like letter
from Staunton, Va, purporting to come
from Philadelphia capitalist of the
above name, who was on his way north
from Florida and had heard Of some
good investments the Roanoke real
estate man had made for friend in
Staunton. Mr.. Green wanted $4,000
piece of business property that would
yield at least per cent. and would
pay the cash, if it were desirable.
The Roanoke hustler was delighted at
tho prospect of plan like this and
even disturbed the meditations of his
partner while in church Sunday morn
ing by attracting his attention and
slipping him the letter to read. Early
Monday morning they were both hust-
ling to look up the property, soon found
bargain which they thought would
catch the rich Yankee and wrote him a
nice letter, which was mailed on the
next train amidst the congratulations
of numerous friends.
1t was not uTtil the next day that a
friend discovered that the letter bore
the date Of April and that the writer's
name would spell "U. r. Green" Now
frinnds tread softly when they pass the
door whore that hustler's sign hangs

STAY IN VIRGINIA.

There is not q shadow of doubt that
hundreds and thousands Of young men
who have been allured from Virginia to
other states have wished themselves
back where friends and opportunities
for making money were alike plentiful,
the air bracing and the glory of their
native state imperishable.
They have wished themselves back
when they read and heard discussed
Virginia's wonderful wealth in min
erals and timber. the millions invested
in their development and their accessi-
bllity to water and railroad distribut-
ing centers.
These young mon have no doubt often
found themselves in the midst of a
rushing, bustling and not infrequently
disappointed crowd of fortune seekers,
who, like themselves, have been lured
to overcrowded cities or agricultural
districts whore the grasshopper and
cyclone swept everything before them,
with the expectation of realizing a for
tune speedily. How grandly and beauti-
fully town in old Virginia looms up
in contrast at such stories.
The value of tho land, minerals and
timber in Virginia is not based on fanci-
full, speculative paper estimates now.
This State has an incalculable value of
solid worth, and the fact is dawning
rapidly upon the minds of outside CAPT
talists who, from all points, are seeking
investments within her borders. The
young man who forsakes Virginia now
is leaving superior place behind him.
His prospects here are infinitely superior
than they would be elsewhere. He may
be king among men here, but no will
be little better than serf in other
places whore the speculative fever runs
high and values are fictitious.
He is wanted elsewhere for the cash
he can contribute to the till Of specula-
tors and is regarded as a lamb 20 be-
shorn by the first adventurer who
catches him. Young man, stay in Vir-
ginia. You should known good thing
when you see it, and SO, when you look
upon the hills, valleys, rivers, railroads
and incompatible mineral resources of
your native State you will SEQ worry
good thing indeed, much more and of
better quality than you can find else

SECRET SESSIONS.

II Council wants to amuse itself with
star chamber proceedings and secret
sessions it is privileged to do so, but
such sessions are neither wise Nor dig

licity. The ideal Council will be that
which is in constant touch of public
sentiment, which acts with the utmost
frankness and which has nothing to
conceal.
But secret sessions will not annoy
any one. The public will be in broad
grin over the one held last night. There
are several members OF Council who
couldn't keep secret if it was rivetcd
to them.
