cation is 10 call attention 10 the remedy.
II Is this. There are very few, IL any,
farmers who have sold their crop this
year. Now the thing to do is TO hold your
crop, aud COW no seed for a crop next
year. Anybody with half an ounce of
common sense can see that the crop now
on hand will bring more money next
spring than the two would bring should
they raise one crop next year, besides by
by leaving oil the tobacco crop they can
appropriate their time to other Industries.
The question arises, is it practical, with
30 many parties to the arrangement ? l
think il is and suggest the following plan
for the consideration OF the parties con-
cerned That meeting be called in each
tobacco growing county and after organ
izing to appoint a suitable man for each
magisterial district who will see every
tobacco raiser in the district and have
him TO sign a contract to not SOW any
seed or raise any tobacco next year. |
don't think any man with tobacco crop
on hand would refuse TO sign obliga-
ton of this kind if satisfied that it would
be general
Now to make it satisfactory in this re-
spect the counties should act promptly
and not later than Nov. 10th. The sue.
c.ssfuI report OF the canvasssrs would
fully establish the arrangement and with
have been for years on account OF the
short crop last year which was only a
little over half crop, the situation af-
fords the farmer fine opportunity to
take careol his interest and if he don't do
it it is his own fault.

A VIRGINIA CONGRESSMAN.

Congressman Champ Clark, of Mis-
souri,, says: Solomon says Words fitly
spoken are like apples of gold in pic
lures ofsilver.' In the entire range fit
erature there is no finer simile. 1t is as
true to-day as when made by David's
royal son. Notwithstanding the fac
that every once in awhile some one it
forms US that the day OF oratory is
past the day has not come and never
will come when eloquence will not
thrill the human soul like strains of
martial music. OF all the patriotic
words delivered in the House on the
memorable Sth of March none were
more fifty spoken that those of that
brilliant young Virginia democrat, JAS
Hay, now serving MS first term. His
speech of one minute glitters like a
gem. Here it is: If there is any State
in this Union which knows and has
suffered the loss of war, it is Virginia.
Ter soil has been enriched by the blood
of heroes for century. If there is any
State which has given to this great
country Of ours leaders of men, it has
been Virginia. There has been no
greet war in this country which has not
had at the head OF its great armies
Virginian. Washington, Scott, Taylor
and long line of the greatest heroic
soldiers who have fought for this gov
ernment have been from Virginia, and
to-day Virginian stands on guard in
Cuba. Fitzhugh Lee, one of the mes
distinguished men of Virginia, has g.
we'll zone his duy that those who are
no making menace against us want
him removed. Virginia is proud OF the
fact that the President of the United
States has said that he shall not be
taken away from post where he is so
nobly doing his duty"

AGAINST THE LAND GRABBERS

AGAINST THE LAND GRADERS.
A decision was recently handed down
from the Court of Appeals which is of
much importance to the people Of Roa-
noke and of Southwest Virginia. II
will be remembered that several months
ago Bristol syndicate came to Roanoke
and fled applications for tax titles by
the payment of the delinquent taxes on
several hundred pieces of Roanoke
property.
No sooner had these applications
heen fled than local "land-grabbers"
bepan to look fJr good thing, aud as
conse quence all delinquent land in
that city was filed on, and the fever
spread to Salem, Vinton and other VIr
plnia towns. A strong feeling was en-
gen Tered on the part of the property
owuers. Col S. S. Brooke, clerk OF the
corporation court, held that according
ta the intent of the law all applicants
for deeds to delinquent lands bought by
the s ate should deposit with clerks
of the county of hustings court
he full amount of taxes due on said
lands, together with ali fees and other
costs. A maDdamus was sued out by
an applicant to compel Col. Brooke to
issue the necessary papers. The Case
was argued before Judge Wood, who
decided adv rsely to the opinion ef
lie clerk OF the court, and the lane
owners, through their attorneys, in
conjunction with Clerk Brooke, sp
pcaed to the Supreme Court This
decision of Judge Wood was reversed
aad it will not only prove a great re-
| ef to the owners of the delinquent
lands filed on, hut will also make the
law a revenue producer for the State,
iuasmuch ss all the amounts due on the
lands sold by the State must be paid at
once by the clerk into the State treas
urv. Under the OLD law applicants for
purchase had twelve months ln which
to carry out their intentions. The re-
suit is considered to be great victory
for the people against the "land-grab
hers" Just what steps the latter will
now take is not known.
