A GOOD START MADE.

The TIMES feels like congratulating
the young men Of the city upon the
course they have shown in organizing
and beginning Alright upon move
ment which is bound to accomplish in
the long run at least much for our city.
The very name OF the Young Mems
Business League has the right ring
about it. 1t means that those who
possess the greater part of Roanoke's
indomitable energy, perseverance and
spirit OF determination to succeed have
banded together again for the upbuild-
ing of every interest looking to our
welfare
Its members have already grasped the
situation and begun on work the out
come Of which cannot be estimated. No
suggestion is made that some one to
represent Roanoke be present at
the meeting to be held in New York
next week, mention of which was made
in yesterdays TINES. There is other
work which the organization can take
hold OF a. once and with proper care
carry through to successful termina-
ton.
But, aside from what work is already
in sight it is with feeling OF satisfac-
ton that the people OF this city can
realize that they have an organization
which will be continually on the look
out for some vantage point from which
some benefits to the city or its people
can be derived.
Things are often left uncared for
which if taken advantage OF in the
right way might leaf to good results.
We can hope that the Young Mems
Business League being in the field for
work will be ready to grapple with any
thing and everything which may lead
to the development OF and UP building
of our city.

None Of the silver men in the House
expressed any surprise when Informed of
the oiiscouraging remarks of the British
chancellor of the exchequer on the out
look of the re-assembling of the monetary
conference.
McCreary, of Kentucky, delegate from
the United States to the conference said:
The outlook does not indicate that an
international monetary conference will be
held this year. There is, however, a
growing feeling in Europe in favor of an
enlarged use of silver. England has been
in favor of gold recommendation many
years, but there are many able men who
favor international bimetalism. England
has blockaded the way more than any
other nation and prevented an interna-
tional agreement for many years, but l
believe there will be- after while, such
demand for international bimetaliSm
teat another conference must be held.
But 1t is probably impossible that it can
assemble until several of the leading
countries OF Europe indicate a desire for

expectation that England would move for
the re-asseIntling Of the conference while
the Liberals remain in power. If the Con-
sefVatiVes could secure control, he would
consider the prospect brighter for an in
ternational agreement. He was confident
that under this administration the Initia.-
tive would not be taken by the United
States.
Senator Allison, another delegate to the
last conference, read the dispatch with
the comment that he had known all the
time that the United States would moi
propose another conference.
Bland said that the action of England
was immaterial. He believed that the
United States should stand on its own
ternational business" He added Il be-
lieve il is a humbug."
