CALL FOR A MEETING.
Young Mon to Meet Tuesday Night to
Form Business League.

Form RusiRess League.
The following call speaks for itself,
1t Is in line with the sug yestion recently
made in The TIMES that something OF
this nature was needed here, and from
the enthusiasm manifested over the
proposition it is probable that much can
be accomplished. The call reads
GAS young business men of the city of
Roanoke. feeling an interest In it's
future progress and Advancement, and
believing that much good can be &C
oomplished through the instrumentality
OF an organization formed for the pro-
motion Of everything tending to build
up the city and the surrounding country,
we hereby issue call to tho young
men OF this city to meet at Hotel Lee
on Tuesday night, Juno 5, at o'clock,
to consider the project of the formation
OF young mems business league Of
Roanoke. or some association having
for it's object the turtheranca Of the
above aims.
while VIC realize that there are others
equally as interested in such plans as
outlined we are Of the opinion thst some
few representative citizens from differ
emit lines of business can best take the
Initiative towards issuing call. which
shall in itself be general. The idea OF
organization, as thus far formulated,
proscribes that the association formed
at the time mentioned shall be con-
ducted on the most economical, practi
cal and conservative plan, yet with the
view Of securing united, enrgetic and
tireless efforts from each and everyone
OF it's members.
Now is seemingly the time for Roa.
noke's citizens to be doing something to-
ward lettering the condition of them
selves and the things around them and
II we are early in the field with the re-
turn of prosperity in the world outside
80 much sooner will we be ready to reap
the harvest for this city"

Barry Defeated German In Ten Rounds,
Though the Latter Made Piuoky
Fight.
New ORLEANS, June 2.-The glove
contest between Barry and German took
place this evening before the Olympic
Club and 1000 people. Bosh Of the men
stripped in splendid condition, but after
the first round it was foregone conclu-
sion that Barry would win. as he was
both too clever and too big for the plucky
little German. Every round was hard
fought, and 1t WAS conceded by many
sports to be the cleverest fight seen here
In many day.
German was severely punished but
stood tho i'll treatment manfully to the
end. In rounds nine and ten he was
knocked down many times but always
managed to respond in plucky man
ner. His seconds finally throw up tho
sponge in the tenth and Barry was de.
clared the winner. The fight was for q
purse of 81 900.

exchange are not merely frequent in
their passage to and fro over the At

the president has intimated to the am

absence from the court CT st. James to
take part in the coming campaign.
If this be accurate there will doubt

Mr. Bayard has asked the state de-

that he will be in his native land in

the coming senatorial elections will

THAT TARIFF BILL
State smen Discuss It's Good and
Bad Qualities.
Talk That Suits All Party Tastes In This
Dissection of Wilson's Measure
Opinions by Several Lead
Ing Senators.
COPYRIGHT, lGl1

The opinion of public men in matters
of public moment and of vast concern
to the business interests of the nation
are always interesting, and instructive
and sound, according to the politics OF
the reader. But even from an oppon-
emit an argument carries with it consid-
cradle weight.
In the following interviews and ex-
pressions of opinion may be found di-
versity of belief to suit all political
minds Senator Platt of Connecticut;
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,, and
Senator Henderson, of Nebraska,
speak for the republicans, and Senator
Gray and Representative Causey, OF
Delaware, for the Democrats What
each of them say is worth reading, by
repu blicans and democrats alike.
HENDERSON WANTS no POLITICS N HIS
There are not few members of both
houses who believe that the tariff
should be taken out Of politics almost
entirely, and that it should be put in
the hands of business men and work
ingmen to settle in manner best to
preserve and perpetuate the prosperity
which generally Is enjoyed by the
people Of the United States.
The tariff is costly issue. Agitation
of the question must always make busi-
ness men distrustful and hesitating.
Provided it is settled to suit them, VEN
lures may be undertaken; but if the
lieve they must retrench and prepare
for the new state of things.
All these things have been a matter
of much concern with members Of both
political parties, in particular those
men who believe in protective tariff
of kind If not in degree.
Senator Charles Il. Henderson is one
of these. The senior Nebraska senator
is a careful, conscientious man, whose
mem bership in the upper house is an
honor to that dignified body and whose
ability is undoubted. At his home in
Seventeenth street, \. W, Washington,
the other morning l had a very inter
ing talk with him on several matters
of public interest; one of them was
the tariff, the German bill having just
been sent to the president.
The tariff has made an issue too
costly for the people to bear without
great hardship, and too nearly ruinous
to private enterprise for it to be &C
cepted in the future as a campaign
issue pure and simple" said Mr.. Man
derson. 1.-The country was very pros
porous when the democrats took charge
of the government in all its branches,
but see what q vast change the agita-
ton of this question of revenue tariff
against protective tariff has wrought
1t has cost billions
There is growing sentiment" con,
tinued he, '.that some permanent dis
position should be made of the ques-
ton so that in the future changes may

that when the tariff measure was first
introduced in congress that manufae-
turers took advantage of that greatly
to augment the distress in order to dis
courage reformers in their attempt to
give the people instead of the manu-
faaturers the benefit of economic iegis-

II believe that many manufacturers
took advantage OF the fact that the
democratic party was laboring TO help
the people by reforming, or entirely
destroying unequal, unconstitutional
and unjust laws and enacting in their
place equable and right measures, and
because the manufacturers had largely
overstoeked-becaus OF the inflated
times, the result of republican mis-
management of the affairs of govern
ment-they took this chance to reduce
the number of their woraingmen, de-
crease their pay, and then lay the
blame on the democratic party. They
hoped by SO doing that we would be
frightened into retaining upon the

to the interests of the people.
But this scheme was not successful
and the new measure for the peoples
relief has become law"
What effect win the new tariff have
upon the election?''
II do not see how it can harm the
democratic party" answered Mr..
Causev. The people must not judge
too hastily. AS soon as the great mass
of our citizens see that the democratic
party has been working for tariff re-
form, that they have all along been
striving for the passage of some meas
ure to bring relief to the toiler, that
the democratic party is the peoples
party and not the party Of the corpora
ton and trust, they will vote as they
should. We have tried and win con-
tinue TO try to undo the results of re-
publican class legislation.

THE NEW TAX RACK.

TIE NEW TAX RACK Washington. and
the metropolis Will have decidedly
novel experience to undergo.
The New York millianaires are. in
truth, apprehenSlve as to the enforce
.ment of the law. Great uncertainty
prevails as to how far the collectors
may 60 in putting millionaires on the
income tax rack. Nor is it forgotten
that many men with incomes just be-
low the limit must do a little swear
ing to that effect. The Terminates that
are let out of it form the great MAORI
", of course, but they seem TO be fully
as interested as their taxable brethren
in the outlook. The whole business of
gathering the tax viii be diligently at
tended to, it being whispered that the
administration has made it a para
mount matter not to fail in reaping at
least twenty million dollars the first
year from the innovation. New York
financiers much doubt whether any
such sum is to be realized, but this
much is certain-metropolita million
aires will have to be vigilant If they
mean to escape their snare.
