The Reclamation OF The ROa.
nOke Lands.
fNewS and ObserverI

Every body knows of the great fer
tility of the lands along the Roanoke
river, where in former days there were
so many magnificent plantations. 1t
was there that Mr.. Devereux, Mr.. Bur-
gwyn and many other such planters
had those magnificent estates which
gained for the Roanoke section the
name of being the granary ofthe State.
These lands have long since become
valueless because the labor of dyking
them is now too great for private par
ties. Uuder circumstances applica
ton is to be made to the State to de-
wise some means to restore these lands
to the uses of man. 1t is very interest,
ing and important subject, and we
hope the Legislature will appoint
special committee to investigate the
subject and seek solution that viii
add 50 much wealth to the States re
sources.

THE NORTH CAROLINA INSANE
ASYLUM.

DR.. VIM. R. Wood, Superintendent
of the North Carolina Insane Asylum,
has made his biennial report. From
the review of it in the Nezos and o.
serVey we take the following extracts:
1t shows that GS males and 10 fe-
males have been admitted into that in
stitution during the last two years, and
the total number treated was 400. The
daily average was 800; IS were read
missions; ga males and 72 females
were ischarged of these 81 had re-
covered; 26 had improved, and were
discharged unimproved. There were
81 deaths. Fortythree applications
for abundance were rejected for want
of room. 1t is said that there are over
500 insane persons in the State outside
OF the asylum.
There were some extraordinary ex-
penscs for the previous year, by which
the institution started the year just
ended in debt about $1,000. That in
debtedness has been paid, and the ex-
pendtures for 1900 were still SI22 less
than the appropriation. The net pro-
ceeds of the farm and garden amounted
in 1890 to $1,000, the largest amount
ever realized from that source.
DR.. Burke Haywood and DIR. HUI
bert Haywood donate certain fees and
allowances to the institution to be ex-
pended for charitable purposes, and an
account is given of that fund amount
ing in the two years to about s2oo.
Mr. Richard H. Smith, president ot
the board, urges the legislature tc
make an appropriation for additional
construction, so as to make more room
and DR.. Wood likewise repeats the re
commentator.
The yearly allowance is ss2,5oo
for repairs, $1,000, and $4,000 /;
asked to enlarge the institution.
The report Of VIM. R. Crawford, Jr.
the steward is very satisfactory.

Where the radiant hours

I've searched all the oceans and intimate
bays,
The coast line, indented with years and
with days;
The CULTS and the straits and the fur

OF its humming bird hues,
OF its dawns and its dews,

His Paper Was Read BY Some
body.

Years ago when Henry Grady was
struggling to bring the Rome Conn
mereial into front ranks, says the
Rome (Ga) TiUune, he called one
day and asked the Rounsaville Broth
ers for an advertisement. J. W. Roun-
ssville replied: ''Why Grady, nobody
reads your paper it is no use to ad-
vertise in it, A happy thought sug-
! gested itself to Mr.. Grady. He went
to his Office and wrote the following
advertisement, which appeared next
morning in the Commercial !:
sWanted, fifty cats. Liberal price for
the same. Apply to the Rounsaville
Brothers" Well, the picture that pre-
sented itself at Rounsaville's corner
next morning beggars description
Boys of all ages and sizes-boys OF
tints, from the fair-headed youth to the
sable Ethiopian barefoot boys and
ragged boys. redheaded boys, freckle
faced boys; town boys and country
boys-boys from all parts of Floyd
county blocked up the sidewalks, dool
ways and street with bags full of cat
cats of every description, name ane
order house cats, yard cats, barr
cats, church cats-fat cats and lean,
honest cats and thievish cats. Well, te
make long story short, the Rounsa
villes told MIR, Grady to reserve
column for their advertisement a
long as his paper continued; ant
that was just what Grady wanted.

Items North Carolinian
Winston Sentinel.1

The recommendations and zeal o
Governor Fowle for the preservation O
our oyster industry are highly praised
by people and experts of Maryland and
Virginia.
The people of North Carolina are
progressing as they never did before;
and are working away with a will
quite confident in their own abilities
and the resources of their country.
Governor Fowle is a fortunate ex.
ecutive. He is at the helm of our
State at the period of her greatest ad-
vance and prosperity, and the times
are propitous for the Inauguration and
perfection of new measures of improve
ment for the people.
There is most decided movement
throughout the State in the smaller
manufacturing enterprises. Winston
is one of the most advantageous local
tiles in the State for wood and Incl
dental iron working, and much atten-
ton ought to be given to the subject.
Our manufacturing wants wide di-
versifcation.
We noted that our representative
from Forsyth had introduced a reso-
luton looking to a geological survey
of the State by the general government
We trust the matter may be success
fully urged. Nothing would more
stimulate the inflow of capital into
North Carolina than an official geo.
logical publication of our resources by
the national authorities.
The Shelby aurora thinks it right
that farmers should be in the ascen-
dency in the Legislature of an agri-
cultural State, and says the Legisla-
lures and laws of North Carolina have
always been favorable to the agricultu-
raj class. The farmers can not say
that the laws of our State have ever
oppressed or robbed them.
The property of the State of three
millions in round figures, held by the
State in the North Carolina Railroad
is really worth more than four millions
and the credit of saving this to the
State is primarily due to Governor
Jarvis, who, during his administration
did SO much for the public welfare and
advancement of the people of North
Carolina.
A dog law would not necessarily
put an oppressive tax upon the owners
keeping his dog. A law to hold such
ownership to accountability; prohibit
ing dogs running at large in the night
time, and compelling the killing of
dogs known to have chased sheep,
with a moderate tax, would afford
sheep owners protection.
We quite agree with the editor of
the Danbury Reporter in all he says
about the necessity of more general
and thorough geological work in North
Carolina, and especially in the Pied
mont region. Our State was one of
the earliest to enter upon geological
work, and she employed the highest
priced and most efficient man of his
day in geological science. And she
never really abandoned the work, or
more than temporarily neglected it,
until after the establishment of the Ag
ricultural Department at Raleigh,
dozen years ago. We fear there has
been too much good fatness about the
department for active and comprehcn-
siye work in all the fields of our mater
ial needs, and there must be waken
ing up.

GOOD FARMING IN NORTH CARO-
LIMA.

AS good results from farming can
be obtained in North Carolina as in
any State in the American Union.
As favorable results have been OBJ
tanned. Men have made more than
twenty bales of cotton to one horse.
Men have made more than 400 to
each hand worked in tobacco. Men
have made more than bale of cotton
to the acre upon a farm Of 100 Oh
even 800 acres. Yesterday our Raj
eigh correspondent told of Mr.. vii.
liam Buffalo, near Raleigh, making
100 bales of cotton and sixty barrel:
Of corn and other things, with onl5
three hands. Good farming will nj.
in North Carolina better than tfN!4E
