An Institution of Which the City 4,
Justly Proud.

An Institution of Which tho City is
Justly Proud.
One of the great institutions of which
a city has just cause to be proud and
which will long stand as q monument of
the progressive spirit of the city of
Roanoke ts the Rebekah Santa ium.
The private hospital of DR.. Charles G.
Cannaday, for the treatment Of diseases
of women and surgery. is situated on
Terry Hill at 12l Eighth avenue 8. w.
The location is high and we'll drained,
the neighborhood the most quiet and
fashionable. It's ele 9ation insures a
lovely view. 1t has recently been built,
is we'll lighted and ventilated, has open
fire places, electric call bells and speak
ing tubes through the entire house.
Telephone, gas, hot and cold water and
accomm odations for giving Russian,
Turkish, electric, hot, cold, needle
shower and various medicated baths.
Massage and Swedish movements are
carried out when necessary. Reliable
nurses, who have been thoroughly
drilled by the physician in charge, are
in attendance. Electricity is used in
it's various forms by new and complete
apparatus not found anywhere else in
this section. An aseptic operating room
for surgical operations, the first Of It's
kind in Southwest Virginia, has been
built and equipped with steam and hot
air sterilizers for carrying out perfect
system of asepses which is great i'm :
provement in surgical operations over
the old antiseptic and more dangerous
methods, that are necessarily practiced
outside such place. The owner and
physician in charge is DR.. Charles G..
Cannaday, who has studied his specially,
diseases of women and surgery, not only
In this country, but has taken all the
advantages to be gained from hard
study and association with the best
specialists and surgeons in England !,
France and Germany. The number OF
patients received is limited to d few.
No infectious or contagious cases are
received. No charitable or insane pa
tients are taken. 1t fills long felt
want In this section, whereby those
averse to going to a public and chart
table institution, may have almost the
constant attention of a skilled specialist
and trained nursing, and at tho same
time the comfort and quiet of good
home. This has been in successful
operation for over year and its patron
age has been most flattering in the ex
treme, some of the most difficult sur
gerry ever done has been most success
full performed here. Patients who
have heretofore been obliged to go to
large city to find such an institu ion
and special attention will find this to
be equal to anything they may re-.
| quire.

4. The increase in the volume Of trade
as reported by Bradstreet's and Dun's
agencies from all sections of the coun-
try.
S. The resumption Of many banks
temporarily suspended and the starting
up of industrial Establishments as daily
recorded in news items from all quar-
tors.
6. The paying out OF all demands upor
the Treasury in gold, and
Z. The economical, judicious way in
which money will be invested and used
in the future, while the lesson of the
crisis and it's result still clings to the
minds OF the people.
So much for the affairs OF the coun-
try. Roanoke citizens have cause for
congratulation from the fact that while
banks have been suspending and failing
all around them, their own financial
institutions have bravely withstood the
strain and come out all right. A con.
sideration of their standing is given in
detail in another column.
Subsequent to the writing of that
article other prominent bankers have
expressed their opinions in the same
strain for the benefit Of THE TIMES
readers.
j. w. Coon, president Commercial
National Bank, said yesterday: THE
outlook is certainly better than it has
been and deposits are looking up. That
is good indication as it shows a re.
storation Of confidence, want of which
is the chief cause OF the condition Of
financial affairs"
Savings Bank, says: "Our bank has no
cause to feel alarm and is not uneasy
We have in the bank money enough to
pay all depositors in full at any hour.
The deposits here are on the increase,
which is always a favorable sign. There
is plenty of money in the country and
the want of confidence by the people is
responsible for the situation"
Junius B. Fishburne, cashier of the
National Exchange Bank, said yester-
day: 1.-The outlook in the financial
world certainly is brighter than it has
boon for some time. we csn easily feel
the difference. The deposits in our
bank for the last week are fifteen per
oeut. heavier than the average amount
of deposits for some time
With such guarantees as these the
people OF this city should feel no uneasi-
ness over the future outlook of either
this city or the country.

GOOD MORNING.

THE ROANOKE TIMES takes pleasure
in greeting its thousands of readers this
morning with its double issue OF sixteen
pages filled to the brim with good, read
able matter. 1t feels so confident of a
hearty appreciation from the thought
full, intelligent public, into whose hands
it will be placed, that it promises even
better service for this public in the
future.
1t commends for careful considera ton
the articles it presents to day and we
feel that the promise made last week
has been carried out to the letter.
An admirable telegraphic and press
association service enables our paper
to publish complete report of the
news of the day from all parts of the
country and world. Few other papers in
the South and none in city of the size
of Roanoke, cover the field so thor
oughly and conscienciously as does
The TINES. and general miscellany
is TO be found in abundance
Stories, fashion notes, humor are here
represented Bill Nye's weekly letter,
ss published in to-day's leading papers
in LARGE cities, has been secured for the
entertainment OF THE TINES readers
M. Quad, the other great humoris,t is
represented by a thrilling story. The
agricultural community will be inter
ested in the farm and live stock notes,
which are incorporated in the columns.
In fact every one can here find some
thing interesting, entertaining, instruc-
tive. Butin the local field is this issu e
also particularly acceptable from the
thoroughness in which the news has been
covered and from the nature of tho spe
cial articles. The liberal advertisers of
this issue alone commend themselves to
the public by the inducements they offer.
Again THE TIMES says good morning
to its readers.

THE IRON BELT BUILDING AND LOAN
ASSOCIATION, OF KOASOKE.

We find the following in tho New
Orleans States OF goth inst:
The Iron Belt Association. of Roa.
noke, Va, of which ex Gov. Fi,zhuob
Lee is president, has made public It's
third annual statement. This exhiblt
while 1T does not show as large volume
OF business as several of tho leading
Southern com panies, bears upon its face
the impress of frankness in dealing
with the public, and at the same time
shows the association to be in q very
prosperous condition. A good many
homestead statements are SO arranged
as to be either misleading or mystifyipg
to the average mind, while only the
expert can detect in them the tricks
OF the trade. This is not the case
with the Iron Belt. Tho statement is
clean cut, and shows just what business
the company has done and the prof &
| earned. On this point General Lee
says in his letter to stockholders:
The extreme strlngency PREVAILING
compelled many Withdrawals; the
amount paid out, on this account, in.
| cludlng interest on same, was $4s, SOL 10,

OF Roanoke that an institution like the

AMENDE HONORABLE.

There was one incident of the Rich
mond convention which should not be
passed over lightly nor slightly. Though
few in mum bers in comparison with the
overwhelming forces which marshalled
under the O'Ferrall banners, the adher-
ents Of Major Tyler were no less sim
cere, no less united, no less staunch in
devotion to their gallant and magnetic
leader. Major Tyler's eloquent and
witty speech OF Endorsement brought
tears to the eyes Of scores of his staunch
supporters. to whom the prospects OF his
future political advancement were not
compensation for his present defeat.
But the wounds of political warfare,
when given in good spirit and taken
in good part, soon heal over without a
scar. We venture tho assertion that
in no section OF Virginia will Col
C'Ferral and the whole Democratic
ticket receive greater percentage of
the Democratic vote than in Southwest
Virginia. From Lyachburg to Bristol
the maiorities will roll up that will kill
the whllom vote which in earlier cam
paigns have been cast for the opposi-
ton in tho black belt Radford and
Montgomery county, the city and county
OF Major Tylcr's home, will work as
hard for the success of the Democratic
ticket as they did for Major Tyler.
And THE TINES will be with them.
It allows no paper to precede it in
acknowledgment OF Major Tyler's abil-
ity, or in cheering on his captivating
speech before the State convention; and
it assures him and his foil ,wers that
not once but many times it will be
found shoulder to shoulder with them
laboring for Virginia's progress toward
that dominion which is her birthright.

CONFIDENCE WHAT is NEEDED.

There are sufficient signs of improve
ment in tho financial affairs of the
country to inspire an appreciable conf
dence in the minds Of all but the per-
sistent calamity howlers'' that affairs
are upon mending hand and that the
worst OF this panic is over.
But bare statements OF opinions unac
companied by facts and figures are often
not sufficient to convince tho public
upon such an important matter as this
For the thoughtful acceptance of this
matter is Of Importance at just this
time. Confidence once inspired is suf-
fcient to start the coys of business &C.
tivity and confidence backed up by per-
severance will under ordinary circum
stanc % keep the wheels in motion
thereafter.
TIL ase are some of the facts which
should impress themselves upon the
public at this time to bring back this
wanting commodity in business affairs:
1. 1t is an almost assured certainty
that the obnoxious purchasing clause of
the Sherman act will be repealed by
Congress within few days and that
some judiclous scheme to satisfactorily
settle the monetary question will be
substituted.
2. The gold imports from the old
world nations to this country will place
within the reach of the monied centers
large sums of this sound currency
which can be utilized in moving the
crops and putting into the hands of the
manufacturers the necessary sums to
begin operations. Four millions of
dollars in gold are now on their way to
the port of New York alone. Over two
millions were received on Friday.
