The action of the democrats in Congress, ordering trie counting of annnrnm in the II oases, carries a lesson, Tis well not to be too posi tive sariue what you will not do. Perhaps Senator Kyle would brt ter extend his bill prohibiting work on Sundays, so that it will include the other six days, at least bo far as Congress is concerned. The peo ple ara getting uneasy about Con gress; they fsar that overwork may bring on a bad case of nervous prostratien next November. A man often in jest expresses the dearest wish of his heart. That was peobably the case with Hon. Channcey M. Depew, who laugh ingly said the other day: ' shall be delighted to be the republican nominee for President in 1S!5" What have Messrs Harrison, Reed, MoKinley at all to say to thatf Would they also be delightedf As bury Park is one of the most beautiful seaside resorts on the At lantic Coast, about 40 miles from New York City and two hours ride from Philadelphia.

I I am a Democrat, Taeae word which have of late been the slogan of Dsvid Banhett BUI, barned oa ,a trio tie lips aad thrilled Ue heart of patriots loag before the Seaato from New York cam, to play his prt on the theater of American politic. Jeffersoa, the father of the Demoorati e party, need thea at (he baptismal font, aad Jaokaoa wrote them in blaxlsg capitals on every page or his eventful Hfe. s. Hill uses them to joggle with, perverting tnetr meaning to serve the purposes of a crafty politi cian. Wbatevi r the word Democracy symbol in other sections, in North Can Una it preserves Its original meaning, and is declara tive of a government of the people, deliverance from tjrany, and eternal fidelity to Constitutional liberty. We are not to be thrown off the track by side issues or controver sies over the claims of partisisas to political prfeerment. Strong as may be our individual preranoes, it is our imperative duty to stand for pore, unadulterated Democ racy against all coiners. Let every man wbo loves North Carolina, every man who remembers the dark days of Republican rule from which the genius of Democracy delivered us set np his banners and stand by the "ark of the oonvenenr." A heated campaign is before us, and many a man may forget bis Democracy and turn to the worship of false gods. It is a sad fact that S)me of the noblest and best of our people have been led into another organization by the force ol their devotion to the fuodmeotal principles of Democ racy. Tbey say that the old party has become oorrapt and that the very principles of Democracy de mand new alinements and new organizations. It is the part of wis dom to deal gently with these men and convince them by calm argu ment and the honest presentation of facts that the principles of our party are uochaagable. Whatever is for the interests of the people is Democratic, and we trust that every friend of the people will rally to its banners. le;em of the roanoke. A Beautiful IndUa Story Fraught With North Carolina History. When the ships of Sir Walter Raleigh under the command of Amadas andBarlowe, first touched the joast of North Carolina, the Roanoke river was called by the na tives "Moratoc." How loDg it retained the name or when it was ohanged to Roanoke, we have no authentio history. Dr. Hawks, in his history of North Carolina, says there was some where within the present limits of Bertie country an Indian town called "Okanoak," and here we suggest, we have probably the origin, of the name now applied to the river, whioh border ing Bartie on the West and Sonth, empties into Albemarle. We call it Roanoke, an easy corruption from "Okanoak." But there is still existing an old Indian legend handed down to ns, through the mists of many gener ations, long since passed away, in wnicn another version outs change of name is given. "Once upon a time, ' so says the legend, "there was a chieftain of the Tuscarora Indians, who by some means, came in possession of a beautiful roan horse, noted for its strength, docility and wonderful power of endurance, one that bad never failed to respond to any call made upon him, however difficult, in fact, he was a counterpart of old Mazeppa's noble steed, that after "dread Pultowa's day bore the old chief in safety from the field. "But he was hardy as his lordl And little cared for bed and board; Whatever was to do done, would do, Obeyed his voice and came to call, And knew him in the midst of all, Though thousands were around, and night, Without a star pursued her flight. ; That steed from sunset until dawn His ohief would follow like fawn. " Byron. . Haviiig cocapion to cross the Mor atoc on business connected with the welfare of his tribe, the chief chose the roan too bear him on his journey. Arriving at the bank of the river, he was surprised' to find it a raging torrent, full to over flowing from the recent heavy rains above. He calmly surveyed the rushing waters, nnmoved by the dangerous outlook before him aad without an atom of fear, to which his heart was a stranger and made preparation to oroes-Gathering the reins of his bridle with a firm hand he gently pressed the flank-of his noble roan with? Jiis nraeasfned heel; the hone, which i- had never yet flinched from, any .task,., how ever dangerous and 1 diffloult ' If might be, with a heart as fearless his rider, did not hesitate a moment, but boldly made the des perate plasge In the mass of seeth ing waters. , For aa instant or so, It aeemed as If both hone aad rider bad beea eagntfed, never to rise again, bat seoa eotataf to the sot. fees, with expanded chest aad dilated aoatrila, Im e Umly breasted the foaming waves aad made for the opposite shore, Isch by ines he gallae ly fought his fearfal way. aad seemed to ex alt that be had at last toned an opportunity of showlag hta chief the matchless power of his Indomi table eoorsge. After many a sturdy stroke he drew near the shore only to meet a deeper aad swifter car rent, one that would call forth all his atreogth aad try to the utter. moat that power of enduranoe wbloh bad never yet been equaled The chief seeing that he was being slowly borne down the stream by the strong force of the current patted his mane and spoke gentle words of cheer to encourage him is his hour of trial. The noble animal in the agony of his desperate strag gles lor lire, onden tood the kind intentions of its rider, and realising at last bis iwtilous conditions he red.u'lx(1 hi efforts to reach the shore, ol1 to be bailed by tbe treacbeinag cuirent. Ou and un, despite his strength and all the energies of nature, he was earned down, on til drilling with the current, he was born near tbe shore and caught In tbe limbs of an oak, that grew on the bank the die was cast. Becoming entan gled in tbe branohes that extended in the water his most desperate plunges availed nothing only to ex haust what little of Ufa was left. The contest was not long: alrea dy weakened by the fearful passage of the river and his despejate fight with the powerful ourrent, his limbs tied, as it were, by tbe branches of tbe oak, nature ooul-J do no more. The chief, with tbe stoical indiffer ence oi his race to death, commen ced in plaintive tones, his death song, and tor awhile ltreemed as if both horse and rider, that had been Inseparable in life, would go down in death together, but it was not to be so. The horse soon ceased his useless struggles lor life and the few bubbles of air that rose to the surface of the water, alone told wbeje the road had sunk to rise no more. The chief by clinging to tbe over baugiog braocnes oi the oak, succeeded in reaobiog too shore, and thus esotped the sad fate of his ompamoa. Aftr many days the cbiet re turned foot sore aud wetry to tbe borne of bis people and assembling his tribe, recounted to them the tragic death of his beautiful roan in the treacherous wateia of the Moratoo, They, sympathising and lament ing with him the great loss of their tribe, ever after, in speaking of tbe river, coupled tbe color ot their lost favorite with the oak, as the cause of his death, called it Roan oak. Thus the legend run, and the fact becoming known to all the Tuscaroras living in that region, tbe name was accepted, to com memorate the loss of the compan ion of their chief, whose body lay entomoea Deneatn its turDed wa ters.
