VIRGINIA FRUITS AID FLOWERS.

We are pleased to see that an exhibit
Of Virginia fruits flowers and pure foods.
10 be held in Richmodn next October. is
In contemplation.
Virginia is a great State for fruits and
flowers, and it IS a pity that W. 30 not
Use our facilities and opportunities il this
direction to better advantage. We have
been a long time learning how rich the
State is in resources. but we are learning
and every every industrial exposition Of
this sort helps us TO learn that much
more. Thousands and hundreds OF thou
sands of fruit trees have been planted
IN Virginia during the past several years.
and there is promise by and by OF & large
Increase in cur horticultural products;
but there are many acres Of suitable
lands which have not Yet been devoted
to this purpose.
AS to flowers. doubtless n2any of our
farmer friends would think it a huge joke
Il we should suggest that there was
money to be made in this branch Of Pc
etc industry. Yet there are many people
In Virginia who are making a good liv-
Ing to-day in growing yio!ets and other
flowers. and there Is room Tor greater de-
velopnent. Flowers are no longer re-
Earded as q luxury exclusively. but TO
many people they haze become a neces-
lsty. For one thing. fashion demands that
flowers shall be III evidence on certain
occasions. and the more we see OF flowers
the more we love them and the more they
become necessary to our pleasure. AS
the Virginia people become more and
more wealthy they will spend more and
more money for flowers, and it seems
sha.ne 20 have to send away for the sup
ply when they can be grown in all their
rich perfection in this genial cline.
There is much money TO the land own
ers of Virginia in fruits and flowers, and
we hope that the proposed exposition will

WHAT CONGRESS is GoIKa.

The situation III Congress is enough TO
disgust the sensible business men .. the
United States For some time past the
country has been enjoying unprecedented
prosperity. The factories are all ct work,
the railroads have all the business that
they can do, the expo.; trade IS increas-
:ng the farmers have made large crops,
and have money to spare. the people
generally are employed. and the smile
Of Providence IS upon Us.
The only trouble in the situation is in
the money supply. On account OF the
enormous demands FOR money in the ac-
tive channels OF trade and on account of
the enormous disbursements that are to
be made on the dividend and interest ac-
count within the next few weeks. the
banks are pinched, and have resorted to
all sorts of means TO replenish their
stores OF cash. 1his condition is due to
the absurd currency system which pre-
vents the banks from issuing notes
against their assets; which prevents the
national banks from issuing notes upon
favorable terms. and State banks from
Issuing notes upon any terms whatever.
But what is Congress doing? Various
bills haze been introduced to regulate
The trusts" and TO hamper those large
corporations upon which the prosperity
of the country materially depends, but
nothing is done to relieve the currency
famine.
This al goes to show how atsucd it
Is for the government to NEEDLE with
the business affairs of the people. What
we need is less legislation and not more
legislation. What We need is repeal,
and not enactment If the government
had not i:lterfered with the banking
business a currency famine would have
been impossible. for the banks would long
since have settled that question on bust
ness principles. 1t is a strange thing
surely that our representatives in Con-
gress should be trying to Go something to
disturb the glorious prosperity that we
ere enjoying. and should decline to DO
TO remove the only impeachment
which stands in the way Of further pro-
yress.

r eistrat:on and PrOvi. IONS

The question having been raised as to
when the next res. stration will be held
and whether or not any but registered
voters can vote in the next Democratic
primary. Hon. r. Walton Moore makes
the following clear and concise reply to
the Leesburg Mirror:
Under the ordinance adopted by the
Constitutional Convention and promul-
gated with the Constitution the regis
tration next year will be conducted in
each county at such time or times as the
Boards of Registrars for the several mag
isteiia districts may designate. The only
limitation is the provision that no board
shall sit more than ten days; but this
is qualified by the further provision that
the judge of the County Court may eI-
tend the time, and fix the days. if he
does 50, on which the session shall be
held. Conditions vary a great deal ac-
cordns TO locality, and local conditions
Will be influential in every county in de-
ternining at what period of the year the
registration shall take place.
The eris nothing in the Constitution
that VIII operate positively and finally
to prevent those who are unregistered,
and therefore, incapaciated to vote in
general elections. BY section 36, of the
Constitution, the General Assembly is
directed to enact such laws as are ne
cessary and proper for the purpose Of
securing the regularity and purity Of
general, local and primary elections, and
preventing and Furnishing any corrupt
practices in connection herewith" In
other words the General Assembly is
given authority to throw around pri-
nlaries the sanction and safeguards of
law. When this is done by appropriate
statutes. then section 80 will become eff
fective. which declares that no person
shall cote at any legalized primary cleo
ton . for the nomination OF any candt-
date for Office unless he is at the time
registered and qualified to vote at the
next succeeding election.
In advance OF action by the general
Assembly legalizing primaries. It Will be
left to the political parties to decide who
shall participate in primaries Each party
will have the power 10 decide whether all
of its members or adherents shall assist
in nominating candidates for office. or
those who will afterwards be able to vote
at the election.
