education of Indian children. There IS
no reason why the Croatans alone
should be neglected. The State of
North Carolina supports normal school
for the Croatans. The Federal govern
ment ought TO give them equal educa-
tional advantages with the Cherokees.
Chickasaws, Delawares and the rest cf
the tribes whose education is looked ar
ter by Uncle Sam.
Mr. Bellamy is ON the right line. His
first duty viii be to prove that the
Croatans are Indians. If he can prove
that to the satisfaction of the Indian
officers and committees charged with
Indian affairs. the appropri ltion will
be forthcoming. If they doubt the proofs
be can present, Mr.. Bellamy would do
well to get the committee to send rep
resentatives to Robeson county and see
the Croatans. A personal acquaintance
would convince the most skepical.

IMPEACHMENT?
Asheville Citizen.

Asheville Citizen.
THE June meeting of the Legislature
is looked forward to by some 80 furnish
ing remedy against the Supreme court
by the drastic process of impe achment.
says the Morganton Herald, but the Her
aid does not advocate such a course. 1t
thinks "a solemn legislative protest
against" the ott-Beddingfield decl-
sion taking rank as a precedent wonld
be most proper" Would the punishment
of "a solemn legislative protect" fit the
crime? Is or is not the case ono demand
ing impeachment? Those are the ques-
tions for the public and the legislature
to consider. 1t is as important that JUS
tice be melted out to SUPREME court as
TO a chicken thief or a burglar.
The Herald says that the press Of THE
State can render no better service than
by calling attention ITO the treat dam
gers involved in this stride toward for
hidden power on the part of the Judiciary.
Very trale hut how mich goosi will this
do in the case of court that wllfully
missuses its power, that has already as
sulned forbidden power, and wa'fully mis-
quotes a decision OF the Supreme court
of the United States i'll order To render Il
partisan decision? Courts have thrown
men into Jail for smaller crimes than
this When d court invadas public
rights. when it becomes IA machine of
tyranny, it is time to strip II OF power
for the reason that it Is Enthusiastically.
The lone man" power in the Supreme
court Of North Carolina has become a
by-word The State needs a Supreme
court: it can't get along without one.
But it might as well not have Supreme
court as to have one that is looked upon
with just suspicion. As for solemn
legislative protest against jud clary why
not try this fearful remedy on an EN-
bezzler or horse thief first, ard see how
it works. Such heroic medicine might
prove too strong for a Supreme court.
