RALLY RorSD nrcnMoND,s FLAG

The triumphant close Of the war has
treated great buoyancy in business circles
throughout the country.
The conviction is widespread that these
United States are now on the eve Of phe-
nomenal prosperity. 1t is believed that
hundreds of millions of dollars that have
been locked up or lent out at nominal
rates of interest for a long time will soon
seek investment in remunerative enter
prises.
Capitalists are beginning to look
out for promising industrial stocks. Next
real estate values will rise. In short.
everything points TO a period Of activity.
the like OF which our country has not seen
for many years
The signs are that the seasons crops
Will be fine, and that our workingmen in
urban communities will shortly have bet
ter employment than they have known
since panic days. All along the line We
hear the hum OF cheerful voices the peo-
pie are growing more and more confident.
The old land is going to take on new life,
with the acquisition of new territory.
We must not let the good times pass
Richmond by. We must greet them with
a CHEEKY spirit and invite them to come
and abide with us. But ruefu faces and
half-hearted expressions will not attract
them. They will go to those who welcome
them with hearty greetings and trustful
clasps of the hand The voice Of the
croaker will drive them off.
Who would care TO invest where the
resident population is discouraged, or
where resident capitalists refuse to lend
helping hand? Money brings money; con
fidence, confidence. Wherever commu-
nifty has faith enough in itself ami In 'ts
enterprises 10 stake its own money, there
you may be sure outside capital viii be
attracted.
Now is the time TO bring to the front
our bright faced, cheery-voiced, hope-in-
spring bankers. merchants, manufac- !
turers, drummers, real estate owners. and
capitalists. 1t is not necessary to gather !
them In public meetings. Addresses and |
resolutions are not needed. The work for |
them is 10 make themselves seen and
heard in their stores, warehouses. and
country stores. at the watering-plac
and wherever else any one can he found
TO listen while they tell of happier DAYS
coming; Of how the South will prosper and
how Richmond will strengthen and de-
velop.
We have a very large amount OF capital
here. We mus. put It 10 the best use. We
have natural advantages We must CON
vince the world of the fact. We must
expect TO lead. not TO send others for
ward In short. the day and the hour is
here when Richmond must put forward
her energy and strength with such ardor
and vim that success cannot but be our
portion.
We may never have another such OPP
portunity. Now is the time to rally round
the flag. Now's the time to rush TO the
front II We have the courage to try we
can surmount every obstruction and put
10 rout the army of doubters and dailiers.

Selling Liquor to Minors.

Editor Morning News; The recent ac-
ton of the authorities in enforcing the
state law in regard to selling cigarettes
TO minors was, no doubt, a step in the
right direction, but there is a greater evil

dicted than cigarette smoking that should
nave the attention of the officials before
