Negro Committed Awful Crime.

Canonsburg, Pa, July 80. Elmer
Dempster, a nineteen-year-old negro,
was taken today to the Washington
County Jail, charged with the murder
q Mrs. Samuel Pierce and two chill
dren and the shooting of a third child
last evening at Pierce farm.
The woman's husband had left the
place, leaying Dempster to look after
from the Pierce home are $l2 and q
revolver with which Mrs. Pierce and
the two children were murdered.
Robert Pearse, three years old, the
only survivor of the awful tragedy,
who was shot through the body, may
recover.
Dempster is said to have confessed
that he attempted assault on the four
year old daughter after the departure
Of Pearse, but was frustrated by the
mother who went to the bureau to get
the revolver to shoot him. The negro
says that he secured the gan at::@stt at::st ard
after killing the mother and shooting
the children, set fire to the house to
hide his crime. IL -

cuted in bucket shop and therefore are
not listed on the New York or New
Orleans exchanges where the demand
creates the price. Every price marked
on bucket SHOP board is stolen from
the New York and New Orleans ex-
changes and represent the record of
trades on those exchanges, and no order
given by customer of bucket shop
can ever see the light of execution on
any legitimate exchange. So it will be
seen that even though the whole South
should band together to buy i've mil
lion bales Of cotton in a bucket shop it,
would have no appreciable effect on the
cotton market because the transaction
IS purely a "bucket" one anl nobody
| knows of the transaction outsile of the
Office of the buckcter. Their system
being one of matching one trade
against another, they are thus enabled
to maintain semblance of equilibrium,
but thu moment that there are more
buyers than sellers or vice versa the
bucket shop is gambler and is specu-
lating on its own hook against the un-
wary speculator. Now the question
at once arises, where does the difference
come in and where should the line be
drawn between such gambling and
legitimate trading. This 10 a question
that must settle iteelf for it has proven
too deep for students that have been
poring over the subject for many years,
and for this reason we applaud the
action of the lower house of the Geor-
gia legislature in passing stringent
law against not only bucket shops but
against all marginal business for future
delivery. This may appear to work q
hardship on mills and spot cot.
ton dealers, but the operation of the
interstate law with reference to the
execution of their orders sent direct te
brokers in another State will relieve
the embarrassment along this line anc
will not work any permanent disadvan
tage so far as we are able to foresee
If such law is enacted all over thu
South it will save the Southern people
hundred million dollars every yea,
that goes to feed the insatiate greed O.
speculsting sharks. Let. the Soutl
Carolina legislature at it's next session
follow the Georgia lead and protect its
citizens from this growing evil ant
vice.

THE STATE TRAFFIC ASSOCIA-
TON.

WHAT is regarded as one of the most
useful organizations of recent years
and the one that will yield largest re-
turns for the investment is the State
Traffic Association which has gotten
its policy mapped out and it's objects
thoroughly defined. Quite number of
private individuals and commercial
bodies OF the State have already be-
come active members, and the enthu-
siasm with which the organization has
started operations and the eagerness
shown by the rapidly increasing MEM
bership places it upon a permanent
and hnainess-like basis. The Associa-
tion will meet with hearty response
on the part of the travelling public as
well as the receivers and shippers of
freight. 1t has been demonstrated
that the Railroad Commissioners hands
are tied in the matter of forcing cor
rection of the abuses from which the
people of the entire State are suffering.
This condition is due to the lack OF au-
thority vested in the commission and
doubt existing as to the rights of the
commission to enforce the laws already
vested in it. The purpose of the traf-
tic association is to consider with care
what additional legislation is needed to
carry out the urgent needs of the pub
lie and to strengthen the hands of the
commission to this end. 1t is not
thought that with the mediation of a
friendly but powerful organization, it
will be necessary to invoke the power
of the Legislature in securing from the
railroads due and proper redress of the
grievances complained of, but if it
should become necessary to take ex-
treme measures the associations attor-.
neys viii consider the necessary legis-
lation, and the proper committees will
urge the passage of the same by the
legislature. This being done every
legal step will be taken to enforce the
laws in favor of the members of the
association and of the public. It will
be part Of the associations duties to
secure regulation Of passenger schod-
ules and freight rates and strict OBJ
servance of the present laws regarding
delayed freight shipments. The Cham
ber Of Commerce has very wisely taken
a membership in the association.

AS TO BUCKET SHOPS,

IT is q significant feature of th.
abuse of the marginal system Of pro
lection Of legitimate trades In cottor
and grain that an annually increasing
demand for the abolition Of buckle,
shops should be heard from every walk
of life. There was time when It wai
q legitimate transaction to- buy or sell
what is commonly termed futures as a
hedge against q spot transaction in or
der to clinch the profit figured on that
transaction, but that privilege has been
greatly abused of recent years by
spectators who never for one moment
contemplated an actual delivery of the
commodity in which they were trading,
and WHO could not pay for one-tenth Of
the contract. if actual delivery were
rendered. The abuse has grown to
such stupendous proportions that while
the South makes only twelve million
bales of cotton, there were sold on the
various exchanges of. the country dur
ing the past year the tremendous
amount Of five hundred million bales.
Hers it will be seen that the specula-
to,s Of the country sold the cotton crop
Of the South forty times while the
planter worried and struggled / and
strained his credit In trying to sell It
once at prices that would net him cto,st;
Of production. Incomps sehens:ble as ittt

IT is to be hoped that the sublime
faith exhibited by those Georgia peach
growers in praying the Almighty to
work on the railroads to induce them
to provide refrigerator cars will as
sumo the dimensions of a mustard
seed. Beside the task of inducing
railroads to provide for the pressing
needs Of their patrons, the removal Of
mountains into the depths of the sea
becomes a matter Of mere moonshine
and light and exhilarating exercise.

IT would be interesting to know
the identity of the lone or two gen

being favorable to the dispensary,

this act there was q predominance of
philanthropy or of patriotism of

country is afflicted today: .I do not

enough to spend his money i'm Still
there are scores Of people who stand

neighbors and who are good, quiet citi-
zens aang ordinary lines but who fail
entirely to come up to the standard Of
usefulness aas factor in building up
the town and county in which they live.
