began to think of means for their pro-
lection. Therefore, on the last night
In May they resolved to seize all the
boats OF the savages on the island. In
the effort to do so conflict took place,
in which six indians lost their lives
and the rest were driven to the woods
Next morning Governor Lane, With
about thirty men, went In search of
Pemisapan. Having fonnd him, the
governor began to converse with him.
until a favorable time came when be
gave the signal of attack. The Indians
were taken by surprise and fled at the
first fire, but they we're hunted down
and many of them killed. .Pemlsapan
himself was shot by an Irish lad in
the woods, his head cut off and brought
to the English camp. This ended the
troubles with the Indians for that time.
The fate OF Wanchese is unknown, but
he may have fallen in this fatal affair.
A few days after that Sir Francis
Drake, with fleet of English vessels,
arrived on the coast, and as provisions
had entirely failed, the colony and the
natives were hostile. Governor Lane
applied to him for passage to England,
which was granted. Accordingly, on
the 18th OF June, the colony of l04 (four
having been lost) returned to England
after remaining in North Carolina one |
year lacking five days. Thus the first |
colony ended in failure, but carried !
oack to England fair knowledge of |
,he country.

A review in Paris paper gives ou1
a rather strange declaration concerning
the leaders in the war between the
States. General Cluseret is the man
interviewed. He won his grade ol
General fighting for the North against
the South. He says that there was
poor generalshlp OH both SIDES In the
war that Grant was densely ignorant
OF military affairs, and that "Stone-
wall" Jackson was the only officer on
either side that had any real knowledge
of tactics. But he says the quality of
the soldiers on both sides made up for
the defects in the leaders.
The Smith6eld Herald recently told
how the Lord spake twice concerning
some Mormon elders. 1t says two
Mormons approached certain mans
house in johnson county with the in
tentlon of spending the night there.
One OF them addressed the gentleman
of the house in this manner
"Sir, the Lord told us to come here
and you would allow us to spend the
night"
'That may be true," replied the far
mer. "but / have seen the Lord since
and he requested me to tell you to
move on"
There have been various comments
upon the verdict of jury IN Goldsbo-
no recently which acquitted Gilbert
Ward, charged with murder. The ev-
,dence against the prisoner was direct
and the defense relied on the plea OF
"alcohollc insanity. Ihls was a slen-
der piea and there are many men IN the
country who would never have listened
to II with a moments consideration.
But suppose it was righteous plea
what is to be said Of the mans GRIM
inal,tv in wilfulIy bringing on such
.tate uf mind? And how ought the
man feel who sold him or gave him
the liquor?

The Raleigh Post suggests to the
farmers OF the State to plant full food
crops this year, and then raise all the
cotton they may. 1t reasons thus
That if the war should continue until
another crop is gathered, food stuffs
will be in great demand, but cotton
will not. If farmers have to pay high
prices for something to eat next fall
and winter and have cheap cotton to
sell to get the money to pay the high
prices, they need not blame any one
but themselves, says the Post, for they
have been warned In time. And so
they have.

it was a question as to whether he
would be nominated, the Democrats
Thought he would make a first class
candidate for that position. They ex-
pressed high regard for him as a
man, and delared he was too clean a
man for the Republican to nominate.
For several days before his nomina.
tion it became apparent that nothing
could prevent its being brought
about. The situation at once changed,
and Mr.. Roosevelt is now shining
target for the abuse OF the Demo-
cratic papers. The change in New
York is very similar to what it was In
Minnesota. Before the Republican
state convention was held, the Demo
cratic and Pop papers could not say
too much of Mr.. Eustis. They did
not expect he would be nominated.
They declared him to be clean. able
man. They praised his incorrupti-
bility, and told the people how he was
opposed to the rule of corporations,
combines. etc Now he is nominated
they can't paint him black enough.
But they have over reached the mark.
The people have found that before
the convention they told the truth
and that now they are simply indulg-
ing in political villification.

The Morris Sun, in speaking Of the
attempt of the opposition TO discuss
state issues, remarks as follows:
Having no other issue, the Populist
and semi-Populist organs are trying
to get up hue and cry over wheat
grades. The lowering of the standard
of quality, which in effect is the de-
mand made, would prove disastrous
to every interest, the producer
especially, for it would demoralize
prices. The price of any article is
established by it's value to the pur-
chaser and no change of rules are 60
ing to effect this economic principle.
Political charlatans. backed by the
dishonest and Incompetent shippers,
have been always foremost in such
agitation. The farmer who raises
good wheat, the experienced buyer,
the miller and the honest dealer want
the standard of grades maintained
not lowered. Any action that would
change the rules for inspection of
lone Northern" the contract grade
not only of our own markets but also
for the delivery of northwestern
wheat in the New York market,
would prove disastrous. The only
value standard of grades has is to
keep up the standard"

A change has been made in the
Money Order system of the Post OF.
fee department. in order to widen its
scope. Money soroers can now be
drawn upon the Office at which they
are issued. This change is in keeping
with the policy of the department. to
make the money order system more
popular and useful adjunct to the pos
tai service. The following are few
of the many advantages which this
change offers to the public:
/. AS savings bank, when persons
desire to temporarily deposit fund for
safe keeping. Orders may be drawn
in their favor, the amounts Of which
will be refunded on demand; or the
order may be endorsed to another per-
son, at any time, and payment will be
made to the endorsee, on presentation
of the order. Ifulost duplicates will
be issued without cost.
2. To pay bills of tradesmen, ETC.,
as a matter of convenience to persons
who have no bank account and are
therefore unable to draw checks.
8. In settlement of accounts. at
small expense, between persons who
reside at distant points. The farmer,
for example, who is indebted to
another residing say ten miles distant
may obtain at the village Post Office
an order payable to the individual to
whom he is indebted, which the latter
will receive through the person who
procures and delivers the mail for the
neighborhood. The expense and time
required for a personal visit are avoid
ed the cost is but trifle; the pay
ment may be regarded as absolutely
safe.
4. In cities, for the payment Of
gas bills; for settlement of dues to all
kinds of organizations, etc, a
Money Order may be ordinarily pro-
cured and sent the payee, without loss
of time, and at a cost less than street
car fare.

The emperor Of China has been de-
posed, and it IS also said assassinated:
because of his progressive ideas.
Among other things he was charged
with was dressing up in American
clothes. China does not relish the
idea of being disturbed, but so far as
the outside nations are concerned,
cannot help herself, so revenge is
taken upon the emperor. The change
is said to bring old Ii Hang Chung
back into power, and he RECEIVERS his
peacock feather and yellow jacket.
This is said to be rather more favor
able to the interests Of Russia than
of England, and is likely to prolong
the strain in the far east.

The nomination of Theodore Roose-
welt for governor Of New York by the
Republicans of that state, means a
great Republican victory there in
November next. No man is better
equipped for chief magistrate of that
great state than is Mr.. Roosevelt.
He is reformer in all that that term
implies, and not of the kind put forth
by the opposition to Republicanism.
AS governor of New York he willgive
the state clean, able administration
and the reforms he may champion
will be along the sensible and practi.
cal line.
