Death OF MIR. Peter Roscoe.

The Elizabeth City Economist pays
a high tribute to the late Mr.. Peter
Roscoe, who died a few days ago at
his home in BERTHE county, in his 65th
year. 1t says:
The deceased was one of the most
popular men in the county, and had
his aspirations sought public distinc-
ton he could have obtained any Of
flee in the gift of the people, but the
glare of public distinction had no
charms for him. Quiet, gentle, unos-
tentatious, he sought communion with
nature, in the busy life of a prosperous
farmer, apart from the hustle of pub
lie position
HE kepl the even tenor of his way.
He lived apart from the active haunts
of men, but was kind, gentle and
companionable, loved his neighbor as
himself, and followed the precepts OF
Him whose life was love
MIR. Roscoe was antiquarian and
historic in his tastes, and the In
dian Gallows,' so famed in song and
story, was on his homestead. He cher
ished that legend of the Tuscaroras
and a walking cane made from the
strange freak of nature that formed
the traditional Indian Gallows, was one
of his most precious gifts to his
friends

each day to work on his message.
While he has considered with MEM
bers Of his cabinet and with some
members Of Congress the subject of
revision of the tariff, the considera-

been of serious nature. 1t can be
said authoritatively that he will not
discuss the subject in his message.
The consensus of opinion expressed
to the President, is that, if the tariff
is to be revised, the work should be
taken up at an early date, but thus
far no decision has been reached in
regard to the matter, and none viii
he reached until the President has
had opportunity thoroughly to dis
cuss the subject with members of the
