statements on the subject Of railway
legislation within the past week, and

corporations, a1d'as the only arteries
Of commerce they cannot be permitted
longer TO remain under the exclusive
control Of the railway managers, bat.
in the words OF the President, ''It is
absolutely necessary that the nation
for the State cannot possibly do it,
should assume q supervisory and reg

poratiOns which practically control the
great highways Of commerce.
When escretary Taft reiterated the

NEGRO'S TERRIBLE DEED.

Conway, Sept. ia Mrs.
Lawrence, living on the outskirts
of town, was viciously assaulted,
her 6-year-old son killed and g.
year-old son badly stabbed with
a knife by an unknown negro
last night.
That 80 bloody a crime had
been committed was not known
or even suspected by the nearest
neighbor until this evening, IS
hours afterward. Ali last night
and until late today the woman
lay in bed, unconscious most of
the time, with her dead boy be-
side her and the baby boy too
badly injured and too young to
give the alarm.
The crime was an atrocious
one. The woman is a very poor
widow Of good reputation, who
has made a precarious living at
the wash tub for herself and
children, and has been aided by
the charitable people of the city.
The authorities are using every
effort to apprehend the negro,
but the fact that he had so long
a time in which to effect his es-
cape has proven handicap.
Mrs. Lawrence said she knew
the negro by sight. Sne said he
had come there to ask for some-
thing to eat two. or three times.
