WARM WORDS OF PRAISE
From Widow of Stonewail Jackson
for President and frs. Roosevelt.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Oct, 25.-In an
interview given out here this evening
Mr.. Stoaewall Jackson, widow of the
Confederate general, pays tribute to
President and Mrs. Roosevelt:
in President Rooseve!t's trip through
the South he has probably made no
more pleasing impression anywhere than
in this city Although his stop with us
people gave him a grand and enthusiast
he captivated those who were fortunate
enough to meet him by his own exceed
lngly cordial and gracious manner.
Il had been honored liz being placed at
the head of a delega ton of ladies to re-
cevie Mrs Roosevelt, and when l was
presented to his excellency | was both
surprised and overwhelmed at the
warmth and exuberance of his greeting.
He expressed so much admiration for
my husband, and so much Joy at meet
ing his WITHHOLDING my hand SO tender
ly and yet reverently-that my heart was
deeply touched.
when he spoke OF his pleasure in APP
pointing my grandson to a cadetship at
West ROint, and complimented him as "a
splendid young fellow he struck the
tenderest chords of very grateful heart.
1.-The Presidents wife made as favOra-
BILE an impression upon the ladies as any
first lady of the land could, being cul-
tured and gracious, womanly and re-
sponsive to all the eager attention show
cred upon her. 1t was lovely to see how
the ladies and children crowded around
her and how kindly and sweetly she re-
ceived them.

STATE ZEAL AND LOYALTY.
Criticisms of North Carolina by Wiz
ginia Paper.

Petersburg Index-Appeal.
However much one may differ with
North Carolinians as to the justice
and accuracy of the claims they make
for their State, both in peace and
war, it is impossible to repress ad-
miration of their zeal and loyalty to
their State. In the heart OF every
true North Carolinian the Old North
State is first, last and all the time
prominent in every achievement and
virtue, and he is not backward in an
nouncing the fact to the world, even
at the risk of exciting ridicule and
contradiction. There is no doubt
that there was Mecklenburg Decla-
ration OF Independence, and that il
breathed the spirit which animated
ali the colonies in the American Rev
olution, but it was not the document
which severed the colonies from the
Mother Country and made them free
and independent States. Mr.. Ma
thaniel Macon was true patriot,
wise statesman and a great man, but
he did not furnish all the brains to
his party associates in Congress: and
the government did not fail when he
passed away North Carolina troops
were numerous and brave in the Civil
War, but they didn't do all the fight
ing. There were others in the mix
up, though one would never find it

paper. The claim that North Caro-
linians fred the last gun at Apo
mattox c. H., lis contradicted by Gen
eral Sheridan and by Confederate
soldiers engaged in the affair, among
whom was the writer, but such little
circumstances do not deter a North
Carolinian from exalting his State
and erecting a monument on the
spot where the event is imagined to
have occurred. Ii North Carolina
does not grow in historical grace
and favor with pOsterity, it will not
be the fault of her devoted sons

The Presidents Visit.

Biblical Recorder.
The visit of President Roosevelt
and Mrs. Roosevelt to North Caro-
lima proved, as anticipated, an event
of the first magnitude and from every
point OF view gratifying. He did not
alter political opinions, and he did
not come to do so, but he doubtless
changed for the bettcr-as he has

He was received at Raleigh, and as
we'll at other points, with genuine

was it so enthusiastic as it might
have been to a President in accord
with dominant political opinion, but
it was far from being unsatisfactory
The long lines ofcheering people, 40

and the universal enthusiasm for the
occasion. spoke first of the National
spirit of our people, second OF their
admiration for truly important
and worthily eminent man, and final

personality. 1t was this last that
made the Presidents visit worth

The average man has well-fxed

of Mr.. Roosevelt. derived from the
SURPRISINGLY bitter campaign OF
1904. from the Booker Washington
affair, and from his attitude to Jeffer-
son Davis, was particularly definite
and no less adverse. 1t is true that
the Presidents support OF popular
causes and his notably good record
in office had gone far to correct the
campaign conception of him as a
dangerous man. His arrest OF GER
tain trusts. his prompt exposure OF
criminals in the public service, his adj
vocacy OF National regulation OF
railroad rates, had commended him
to the people of the South as we'll us

North CaroIiua's Children All Right.
Statesyille Landmark

NIdlfefiif
Among the many good things that
President Roosevelt said while pass
ing through the State was the fol
lowing at Salisbury:
you have many children here
(the graded school children were out
to meet him. like to meet them.
Your State has done great things
for education. There are always
fathers and mothers who are willing
to toll and strive that their children
may have more Of LIES good things
than they had But no son should
be willing to live upon the good
name of his father. Many mothers
teach their daughters not to work
because their mothers lot has been
so hard. This is foolish The chill
dren who will rise up to call their
parents blessed are those who are
taught to overcome the obstacles OF
life"
This utterance is not new but the
statement can't be repeated too Of
ten, and coming from the President
should give it added force. In Raj
eigh he said that while it was an ex-
cellent thing to have Il glorious past
it won't do to depend upon things
that are buried The present and
the future depend on us, not on the
past.
Emphasizing his love for children
the President seid at Charlotte:
"And now i'll saying good bye, |
want to say to you men and women
that | have been immensely impress
ed with North Carolina-with her
agriculture, with her industries,
but that the crop that | like best is
the crop of children, and congratu-
late North Carolina. congratulate
North Carolina on the fact that, to
all appearances, the children seem to
be all right i'll quality and quantity, .
and this statement was emphasized
by taking a little girl in his arms
and holding her up to the crowd.
Evidently the President thinks race
suicide is not in favor in North Car
DINA.

As Others See Us.
Raleigh Post

Raleigh Post.
The staff correspondent OF the
Washington Post, who was here
with the Presidents party wrote the
following to his paper:
This great gathering enabled the
observer to Judge North CarOlinians
as IA type They are peculiar and
picturesque people. The men are
shrewd, sharp-faced, spare of build,
reticent, plainly attired and with
little change of costume and cut of
hair might serve as models of the
commolality of England i'll the days
of the Roundheads. The women are
not given to fashionable dress, but
the number of handsome and regular
features among them was remark
able. These people are the sons and
daughters of the Old North State,
intensely devoted to their home and
neighborhood. Their hospitality,
which is proverbial, WAS extended to-
day to the thousands of sojourners
from outside states with Il grave and
quiet courtesy that charmed the re
cipients.'
We hardly know whether to utter
q sigh embraced in the language of
the Scotch bard. or rise on our digni-
ty and administer rebuke to the
young man who wrote thefOregOing
i'll the nature of Il lesson on good
| manners. AS it is we are curious to
know Just what we look like without
| the ''change of costume and cut of
| hair suggested. And from parade
through crowded streets and a sea
of humanity crowded along a dusty
trail of fair midway and a race
track, what opportunity did the cor
respondent have to learn that our
women care not given to fashionable
dress?'
We mind the soft and easy compli-
ment the writer bestows in the clos
ing part of the foregoing paragraph,
and Judge that it was mis- intention
to be nice, us any guest should be.
But didn he get a remarkable view
Of us, in the brief time he was here?
They are peculiar and picturesque
people, as if such qualities were only
found in North Carolina. "The men
are shrewd, sharp-faced, spare of
build, reticent, plainly attired," etc.
He must have had in mind the fakirs
along the trail! Then speaking of the
women, he says 1.-The number OF
handsome and regular features
among them was remarkable. -
Might have been speaking of the
horses, or the pigs in the exhibition

The Patterson Cup.

Itf'pIutI
Mr.. John Charles Mcneil was
awarded the Patterson cup-the prize
for the best contrlbutiOn to literature
by a North tarOlinian within the
year. Mr.. Mcneil is IL son OF Capt.
Duncan Mcneil, of Scotland county,
himself an accomplished writer and
notable citizen; and his mother is Il
woman worthy OF her sonia worthy
representative OF he best North Car
DINA mothers. WrcOngratulate the
son; we congratulate Wake Forest
College, his Alma Mater; we comgrat-
ulate the Charlotte Observer, whose
staff he SO adorns; and we cOngratu-
late most of all the noble father and
mother They have right to be the
happiest parents in North Carolina
Just now.
Mrs. Lindsay Patterson's idea has
hit the mark. The prize that she
offers is rich enough and beautiful
enough to fire the ambition and re-
ward the efforts OF any aspiring man
or woman; and the fact that it is
awarded by the State Literary and
Historical Association-the one
worthy literary body of the Common
wealth-gives just the desired signifi-
canoe. She has rendered the State a
notable service.
Our readers are somewhat ac-
quainted with Mr. McNeill's work
His verses have received more recog-
milton than has ever been accorded
the work of any other North Caro-
lima writer. His work i'll prose is
equally promising. We are sure the
prize that he has so worthily received
and the public applause that has sc
freely been given to him and the pa
tronage-the admirably liberal treat
ment accorded him by the Charlotte
ObSerTer-will serve to incite him tC
higher achievements.

A Remarkable Series.
harlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer.
1t is interesting to marshal and re-
feet upon the series Of public policies
that the President enunciated in his
public speeches last week. His en-
forcement of the Importance of good
citizenship was wholesome and must
have been effective. His tributes to
Southern courage and to the mill
tary genius of Lee and Jackson were
most agreeable to Southern ears. His
exaltation of the national spirit and
plea for it's growth and extension
were worthy of the Chief Executive
of a great nation which he desires to
see thoroughly reunited. But all
these things are apart and we refer
to his assertion ofgovernmental pol
icies. These were, briefly: 1. That,
whether we will or no, the United
States are world power and must
carry the responsibilities which this
fact imposes; 2. The States or the
general government-preferably the
iatter-shOuld set apart an Appa-
lachian forest reserve, for reasons
which he gave; 3. The government
should adopt a system Of railroad
regulation through the Interstate
commerce commission, relating to
rates, rebates, private cars and term
inals; f. Work on the Panama canal
must be prosecuted as rapidly as
possible; 5. Trusts must be curbed
and to that end Federal supervision
is necessary: 6. This country must
be just in its dealings with China, ex-
GLIDING the coolies, as heretofore, but
making no distinction in it's admit
lance of her travellers, students,
scholars, business and professional
men and those of like classes of other
countries.
1t would be difficult to find a lust
argument against any of the above
propositions. 1t mi ght be objected
that the reference to the United States
as Il world power smacks Of ''impe-
rialism,'' but the fact stands as the
President has stated tive are a
world power, and as for the Philip
pines-if this question may be said
to have a relation-we are there,
wisely or unwisely, and could not
now help ourselves if we would. As
to the policing of the Caribbean Sea
upon the completion of the canal,
some may bubble on that, but this
is responsibility which will go along
| with the effectuation of the enter
prise; and while Others may object to
a larger navy, as was advocated in
the speech at Jacksonville, that will
necessarily go along with the police
duty which will in time devolve upon
this government.
The several policies announced are
in no proper sense partisan Or sec
tional and it really looks as if the
President has made series OF speech
es upon which men Of all parties and
sections should be able to agree II
for no other reason than this the
series was a very remarkable one.
