ROXBORO, N. C, Sept. 25, 1901
On" our first page will be found an
interview with President Rooserelt
by Senator Pritchard, which will
give pleasure to all Southerners.
The President's expressions are en
couraging to the South, and is rather
more than was expected by manj. If
he carries out his promises he has
made since assuming the duties of
his high office, his administration
will be a success, and can but be
commended by the people. Unlike
the nominee cf a convention he has
no promises to fulfill which were
made before entering office. He is
proctically unhampered by such.
OHIO'S PRESIDENTS.
One of our contemporaries points
out the fact that some strange fatal
ity seems to overhang the presided ts
which the State of Ohio has given to
the nation.
Out ol the foui presidents w ho
have bailed from the Buckeye state,
President Hayes is the only one who
survived his term of office. William
Henry Harrisson died before he had
been in the white house thirtv days
James A. Garfield was assasinated in
the summer which immediately fol
lowed his inauguration as president,
and William McKinley was just en
tering upon hi3 second term of office
when the rssassin's bullet laid him
low.,,-
But of course there is nothing in
the superstitious idea that the fatal
ities which have overtaken the chief
executives in question proceed from
the fact that they represented the
.state of Ohip. Beyond the mere co
incidence involved thereis no signifi
cance whatever in the fact that three
' of the presidents furnished by Ohio
have died in office. ,
What has happened in the case of
the Buckeye State might have hap.
pened in the case of any other state,
and there is no cause whatever for
alarrr or uneasiness. Constitution
President Roosevelt.
. Theodore Roosevelt assums the
duties of the Presidency under con
" ditions caltflated to call out the test
that is in him, conditions which will
make more ardent his natural desire
to fulfill the expectations of his
-countrymen. While he was in per
, feet accord wich Mr. McKinlev in
regard to public questions, his strong
individuality will doubtless cause
some riheertainty until his adminis
trative polices are developed. He
enters office more free from political
1 1 i ' I 1 1 Til .
had he received a party nomination
after a long contest. Mr. Roosevelt
; has a high conception of civic virtue
and his opponents will probably find
imore to criticise in his doctrine than
in his methods, Th will be no
' disposition to prejadge him, but an
earnest, wish that the governmental
policies for which he and- his party
istand may be tested upon their: mer
