A. Olds in Charlotte Observer. (Continued from Monday's Robe- sonian. ) Justice is but too often spoken of as tardy, and surely the case of the Croatan Indians of North Carolina is one which proves the accuracy of this general state ment. It required three hundred years for them to come to their own again, as the descendants of the Lost Colony of Koanoke, and of these Indians on the North Carolina coast who were de scribed by the historians of the 1587 expedition by the English to these shores as a very noble, well-favored and splendidly form ed people, as indeed is shown by the watercolor drawing made by John White, the artist of this noted expedition sent out by that prince of exploiters, Sir Walter Raleigh, which landed at Roanoke Island. It is strange, but true, that the writer made the first printed suggestion that the Croatan Indians of to-day are the descendants of Governor White's "Lost Colony," this sug gestion having been made July 31st, 1885, though the idea had been advanced by r. Hamilton cMillan, ot Kobeson county, North Carolina, who has spent much of his life in the country of the Croatans and who knows more of their history and tradi tion than any other living man. It was in 1887, while a member of the North Carolina Legisla ture, that .wr. McMillan advanced the idea and it was through his personal influence with that body that this tribe was given recog nition. In 1888 he embodied his opinions in a brochure which ad vanced internal evidence and tradition with historical evidence in favor of the survival of the "Lost Colony" in the persons of the Croatans of this day. It is known that North Caroli na shores were for the first time seen bv Sebastian Cabot during: his voyage in 1498, when touching ration New Foundland, he skirted the coast southward down to the lati tude of Gibraltar, which is that of Roanoke Island, in this State. The next year he renewed his ex plorations over the same course and went south until he reached a point where the Spanish were colonized. It is claimed that Giovanni Verrozano, an Italian, landed on the shore of this State, at two points, and that near Koanoke island presents were given by him to the natives who then for the first time saw white men. Verrazano was in the ser vice of the then King of France and that country claimed the New World, and nearly torty years "IBP Cannot produce really fine music from a poor Piano.

Manteo remaining to the last the good triend ot the white men while Wanchese be came their unlenting enemy. The accounts the Englishmen took back of this new world, which Raleigh named ' 'Virginia, ' ' in honor of the so-called Virgin Queen Elizabeth, set England in a flame, and bold adventurers rallied for a new journey, the expedition sailing early in 1585, Sir Richard Grenville, Raleigh's cousin, commanding. Virginia was the general name given all the territory which the English claimed on the basis of all discov eries, but it seems there were two provinces, one called Carol ana and the other Carolina, these adjoining, but Carolana soon went out of existance, if indeed it ever really existed, and the name Carolina covered all the territory within the charter of 1663, this being presently divided so that in 1719 the governments of North Carolina and South Car olina were made entirely distinct. In the second expedition which Raleigh sent over were some of the greatest minds of that great age, including ThomasCavendish, Thomas Hariot, John White, Phil ip Amadas, who had been on the former expedition, and Ralph Lane. Grenville, high-tempered always, though brave as a lion, burned a town of the Indians and destroyed their corn crop because one of them had stolen a silver cup. This act was to bear fruit which soon brought woe to the white men. Grenville set a col ony on Roanoke Island with Lane as Governor and in the late sum mer returned to England. He and Lane had had hot disputes on the outward voyage and Lane seems to have been aware that no good was intended. This col ony spent much time in explo- and it is remarkable how much of the territory of the new world it visited. It went up into what is now Virginia, near what is now Norfolk, explored the Roanoke river, which the na tives called Moratoke, this indeed being the English name for many years. This time the natives were untnendly and there was fighting during several of the ex peditions. The white men had depended upon the natives tor food, this being usually hominy, made from Indian corn; potatoes and various other roots, fish and game. Hunger pressed so close that this colony had a council on one of its expeditions, but the explorers showed their bravery 15 men behind him on Roanoke island providing these with full supplies and plenty of arms. Englishmen saw the 15 no more, for when a year later John White came over he was told by the savages that these men had eith er been killed bv the Indians or who f drowned while trying to go from Koanoke island to Croatan. COLONISTS LIKED COUNTRY. The colonists were charmed with the country, finding grapes very sweet and large; papatour, which is now known as Indian corn; opernauk, the native name for the potato now known as the Irish potato, and the uppowoc, or tobacco, which was so much affected by the Indian and which made itself a wonder among the Englishmen at once on both sides ot the ocean. In 1587 Sir Walter Raleigh, with his usual persever ance, made ready a new colony, made John White the Governor. with 12 assistants, who were vir tually named as aldermen, of what was to be the "City of Raleigh in Virginia . This colony num Derea in, ot whom n were wo men, 10 of these accompanying their husbands. Roanoke has really a very poor harbor and Raleigh told his people to make their home on the Chesapeake bay, to which one party of Gov ernor Lane's explorers had gone, but this step was not taken. It was the 22d of July when the lit tle fleet reached this coast and Governor White at once started to Roanoke island. White had been with Grenville on the 1585 expedition.

Statesville Landmark. Whatever may be the result of the Democratic State convention (this is written in advance of its action) it is greatly to be hoped that the State will never aeain witness a similar pre-convention canvass. Hra year at least the campaign has been in active progress. Not only has the can vass aroused much bitterness but the cost in money to the can didates and their friends has been enormous. If the average citi zen had any conception of the amount of money it takes to run a campaign in these modern days he would be startled. A paid organization must be main tained in almost all of the 97 counties of the State, and this in addition to State headquarters, sub-headquarters and workers going to and fro in the State and up and down in it, means an enormous cost to the candidate in addition to the time and per sonal expenses of the candidate himself. Much, it might be said nearly all, of this expense is legitimate in a way. Men are paid for their time and the ex pense incurred in working for the candidate. Little if any money is expended to buy any body direct. But one of the worst features of this system of campaign is that a great army of deadbeats attach themselves to work for plea that PROFESSIONAL CARDS later sent a colony which spent by deciding to perservere as long Eagle Furniture and Carpet Co.

King Charles I, of England, granted all the Atlantic coast to Sir Robert Heath in 1629, but the French still laid claim to the territory as far north as Wilmington N. C. When the first English colonists came over in 1584 they were told bv the Indians that on several other occasions white men had been on the coast and their his tonan guessed that these were Spaniards who came to trade for "the white pearl," and Barlowe, one ot the ship captains, saw children among the natives who had very fine auburn and chest nut-colored hair. The patent to Sir Walter Raleigh to colonize this country was granted by Queen Elizabeth, in 1584, and it gave the settlers every privilege which any free citizen of Eng land had, as if they were born in the mother country. In the com ing centuries, when the colonists were to rise against that mother, who was then depriving them of these English liberties, this gol den promise ot the long gone years was brought to mind, but to no purpose. RALEIGH'S FIRST EXPEDITION, 1 here was in 154 the hrst ex pedition, under Raleigh's auspices, which landed on the North Car olina coast, passed through an in let and found the isle of Roanoke, the largest in North Carolina, with a fortified villagethe people being declared by these hrst ex plorers to be ' 'gentle, loving and to V.

Let Us Do Your Job Printing! faithful, void of all guile and treason and such as live after the manner of the golden age These first English explorers, since they could not be called colonists, remained here only two as half a pint of corn was left the man. They lived on any sort of food, even on the meat of dogs, and al most starved, as they had no seed corn, the Indians refusing to furnish it, and also planning to starve the English to death by going away and leaving all their planting grounds on the island oi Roanoke unsown. The English had no skill in catching fish with weirs, which the Indians used to a great extent. The Indians formed a league against the whites who were on short com mons and who had to watch day and night to guard against mas sacre. Governor Lane held as a hostage, one of the princes, Sky co by name, and treated him most kindly, and this kindness bore fruit, for he betrayed the Indian plot to massacre every settler, the English acting in stantly, notifying their would-be murderers that they desired a grand council on the mainland, going there well armed and put ting the then king and the chief conspirators to death. The colo nists then seized a good supply of corn and planted enough to last them two years, but sudden ly Sir Francis Drake appeared with a great fleet of a vessels, offering to give the Englishmen food, ammunition, clothing and boats, and men for the latter, This generous offer was accepted but a great storm scattered the fleet and everything became gloomy in the extreme. Sir Rich ard Grenville had promised to come over but there was no sign of him and so the colonists, m the lowest spirits, decided to go home with Drake. There had been 108 of them but over a doz na and flora ct the new country, these being shown to Raleigh and aiding much in developing interest in the work of coloniza tion. In 1590 they were engrav ed on copper and printed in a number of languages by Theo dore DeBry, the chief German artist and printer of that time. White was of pacific temper and his purpose was to be friendly to the Indians. As soon as his boat had pushed off from' the ship he said that the sailors in the latter had been directed not to take back to England any of the planters, but to leave them on the island. It was three days before the planters arrived, and they, stur dy men and women, prepared to make their home on the is land. On the 13th of August, 1587, Manteo, who remained the faithful friend of the Indians, was baptized by a clergyman of the -bsutuiisiied Church and was made Lord of Roanoke and Das- samonguepeuk, this being the only title of nobility ever given to a native of the new world bv English authorization. Five days after this baptism Govern or White's daughter. Eleanor Dare, the wife of Ananias Dare, one of the assistants, gave birth to a daughter who was christen ed "Virginia", and who was the hrst child of English parentage born in this hemisphere. The colonists found they needed many things, in spite ot what was thought to be the ample provis ion for them, and they by vote they can do great things for him, when as a matter of fact they can do nothing and probably in tend to do nothing. It is an op portunity to hold up a man who is afraid to protest, that the po litical grafter will not let pass. Gov. Glenn has suggested that a State primary law be passed, n i i .i ail tne primaries in tne various counties be held on the same day -i.i i.i j . i ,i ana tnat tne state Dear tne ex pense. The holding of prima ries in the different counties over periods ot several months, as is done in this State, protract the campaign and makes it more ex pensive to the candidate, but a State primary system with the expenses paid by the State will not stop the trouble it a canvass is made prior to the holding of the primaries. The everlasting agitation which the canvass stirs up is almost if not entirely as bud as the enormous expenditure involved. In these latter days we regulate everything by law and if the pre-convention can vass can't be stopped any other way The Landmark hopes a law will be passed to prohibit it. With this and another law (such as Oregon has and as was published in a recent issue of The land mark), prohiditing the expend iture of not exceeding $500 or $1,000 in the campaign, it would make little difference whether we had a State primary or not. At all events, a law, public sentiment or something must stop the enormous expenditure decided that White, their Gover- of money in pre-convention fights wnicn nas oecome a custom m this State. The expenses not only bankrupt the candidate and places him in all sorts of embar rassing positi6ns, but it will soon corrupt the electorate as it has already corrupted the dead-beats and grafters who attach them selves to the candidates; and worse, if possible, it will make it impossible for a poor man or a man of moderate means to as pire to any office.

This was the sad end of the first ac tual English settlement in what is now the territory of the Unit ed States. Directly after Lane had left Roanoke a ship which Raleigh had fitted out and pro vided with all necessaries arriv ed there and looked for the colo nists but found them not and two weeks later Grenville came with three ships and also explor ed the country fruitlessly. He was so anxious to retain posses sion of it for England that he made the bold venture of leaving nor, should go home as an agent for all, so as to supply every need. RALEIGH'S TROUBLES. He sailed nine days after his baby granddaughter had been baptized and his eyes jvere the last which saw" the ill-fated colon ists. England was then in a stir. The great fight against Roman Catholic Spain was on and the country needed every man to do his duty. With wonderful per- severence, in the midst of all the terrors of the time, Raleigh found means to send White back to Virginia in 1588. He sailed in April with 15 more planters and bountiful supplies but his vessels met war vessels of France and one ot them was boarded and plundered. Both vessels re turned to England. This was the last effort that year to help the Roanoke colonists, and it was in February, 1591, that White through Raleigh's influence, started for Virginia. The com mander of his little fleet thought more of plundering the Spaniards and the French than of the new colony and so it was August be fore the latter was reached. Heavy storms came on and seven of the best men were lost by the capsizing of a boat m trying to reach Roanoke island. One of the paintings made by White in in 1585 showed a small boat sail ing towards that island, in its bow standing a man holding aloft the cross. On this relief visit White went personally in a boat and after a trying journey anchored at night in a little bay (Continued on fourth page.)
