EDITOR CUSTER CHRoNICLE:-
Your excellent and timely advice to
mothers in the article entitled "Your
Girl and Her Company, in a recent
issue of the CHRONICLE, ought to be
posted up where many daughters as
well as mothers could read. Too many
mothers are fattered by the attention
given their daughter by numerous young
men, without regard to their morals, or
lack of them, foolishly delighted that
daughter is 30 popular, giving little heed
as to how she spends the hours ''be
tween the dark and the daylight, or
with whom. 1t would be well for all
such to read the opinion of that Master
of Wisdom, King Solomon, who said:
''There be three things which are too
wonderful for me, yea four which know
not: The way of an eagle in the air !;
the way of serpent upon rock; the
way of a ship in the midst of the sea !;
and the way of man with maid"

Crippen and British Justice.
tIanta Constitution, Nov "a.

Atlanta Constitution, Nov "a.
British Justice, swift and inexora-
BILE, has once more pointed a re-
prOach and lesson to American JUS
tice with the gruesome case OF Trip
pen.
Within a few weeks of the date at
which the crime charged was dis
covered the American dentist had an
absolutely fair trial, able legal adj
vice, and the right Of appeal. SO
ample is British justice that the ac-
cused man received almost as much
aid from the Judge Oh the bench as
from his own counsel.
Following these Indispensable con-
comitants OF the AnglO-SaxOn COD
ception of trial by jury, Crippen was
convicted and yesterday PAID the
death penalty.
Money, friends, influence, popular
hysteria-a petition carrying the
names of thousands of maudlin men
and women was presented to the
home secretary-were unvalling to
swerve legal retributiOn.
1t is true that Solicitor Newton,
his attorney, made one effort to lug
in that tried American refuge, the
technicality. The court tore it to
shreds, and the court went on to its
inevitable climax.
Had the Crippen affair occurred IN
America, we would just about this
time have been reaching the trial
stage. Technicalities, precedents
that ought to be obsolete, maudlin
popular pressure, and sentimental
appeals from lawyers, as long as the
money lasted, could have been de-
pended upon to prolong the case IN
definitely.
The probability is Crippen would
have ended his days peacefully in the
asylum, his neck saved by an in
genious "brain storm" plea. Or in
default of this development, he might
have been executed after year or
more had passed, and the public
treasury been bled to establish what
was obvious almost from the begin,
ming.
Let US hope this case has been SUI
ficiently dramatic and decisive to
point helpful moral to the custO-
dams OF that brand OF ''iustice" in
America that parodies the definition
and that, as Judge Hillyer recently
remarked, puts a premium upon
murder.

A POOR JOB.
The Mistake Made in Appointing
Negro Enumerators In the South.
Charlotte D"'""'

Charlotte Chronirie-
The government Is now being
brought into a realization Ofthe mis-
take it made in appointing negro
enumerators in the South. 1t is
found that in the important matter
of cotton reports there is much mac
curacv. The figures for acreage and
Yields seem to be full oferrors. From
all accounts it was poor job. By
wav of explanation. the Washington
correspondent OF The New York
Journal of Commerce saws the CEN
sus experts blame it on the employ
ment Of these negro enumeratOrs.
if is stated to such An extent that
the latter in many instances where
race prejudice was strong took little
pains with their work and allowed it
to be less accurate than they would
otherwise. Another statement is
that the negro enumeratOrs almost
invariably reported unreasonable
high values, acreage and crop Yields
for the farms of negro land holders
and tenants: this is alleged to be
positively indicated by the figures
that have already been tabulated as
shown by comparison for margins of
errors made on the strength OF in
formation from outside and collateral
sources. The figures now in hand
certainly seem to contain serious
discrepancies and Inaccuracies when
contrasted with the figures OF ten
years ago and all other data. A
question that is proving OF large
general interest in this connection as
well as in a number of others is the
extent to which the management OF
the census will permit the re-editing
OF the schedules. Such editing has
been very common in the past. some
schedule returns being edited over
and over again until the figures final
" retained were very far from actual
data. The Journal says there has
been a strong growth of the feeling
under the present organization OF the
bureau that such processes were
not statisticalIy honest and should
not be repeated. If. however, they
are not used for the correction of the
new agricultural figures many of the
figures will present almost startling
discrepancies. owing to the returns
Of 1900 having been so extensively
edited, while those Of the present
agricultural census would not have
been. The cotton acreage figures
will offer this problem to the present
management in an accurate form,
but it is found in serious shape in
a number Of'Other connections.

Opening the Canal.
Raleigh Evening Times.

Raleigh Evening Times.
The opening of the first link in the
inland waterways by the opening of
the link from Beaufort, North to the
sound, marks an epoch in the history
OfNOrth Carolina For many months
the Government dredges have been
buisily at work North of Beaufort
cutting the canal through the
swamps and woods. The link has
now been opened and vessels can pass
through with eight feet of water,
and as soon as more dredging is done
they will be able to carry ten feet.
This will enable all small vessels to
avoid the dangers OF Cape Hatteras
and will mean the saving of millions
dollars and many lives.
For hundreds of years Cape Hat
teras has been the dread of the YES
sells doing a cOast-Wise business, and
yet all of this could have been avoid
ed by constructing a canal along the
inside or protected away. Hundreds
OF millions of the Governments
money can be squandered in the
NH PPliiCo vi CPCbC III DuIluI1lS IL
canal in Panama, but here in our
own country the spending of few
millions to save the lives and property
OF our own people has been a thing
which has created no interest what
ever. But as the Government has
finally been persuaded to make a
start on this work it is to be hoped
that it will be kept up until the en-
tire Eastern coast of North Caro-
lima is opened up and the inland
waterway made a reality and in the
place of the horrors of Cape Lookout
and Cape Hatteras we will have a
fine inland waterway with flourish
ing towns and cities, all doing a
thriving business with the outside
world in boats that dare not try the
dangers OF our coast at the present
time.
The good work has been started.
and it is the duty OF every North
Carolinian to keep up the agitation
until we get the great inland water
ways along the entire Atlantic coast.

Omaha. Neb., Nov. 20.-Last year
North Carolina carried away high
bonors at the exposition OF the
National Horticultural Association
held at Council Bluffs, Iowa, across
the river from this city. This year
she did quite as well, il not better. a.
the exposition closed last night after
a ten DAYS continuance. She was
awarded six beautiful and valuable
silver trophies for the best plate dis
plav Of apples from the Gulf States,
the best display OF horticultural pro-
ducts, all States and countries com
netting: the best collection OF nuts,
the best collection OF English wal
nuts. the best collection OF peanuts,
and the best display OF vegetables
from the Gulf States. In addltlonto
the silver trophies, she was awarded
20 blue ribbons, four white and eight
red for displays in minor classified,
tions. Proper estimate may be had
in the showing in the way ofprogress
when it is understood that about 4O
States competed from Maine to the
Pacific, including Texas, Florida,
Louisiana and other Southern
States.
Messrs. w. n. Hutt and S. b. Shaw,

were in charge OF the display this

FULLERTON DAREs JOHNSON
To Hear Evidence in Regard to Mat
ter Of Signal Tipping.

Washington. July 28.-Hugh S. Full
lerton. correspondent of the Chicago
Examiner, at present in Washington
with the White Sox. has challenged
Ban Johnson. president of the Ameri,
can League to hearing on the
charge that there is system of signal
tipping at the grounds of the New
York Highlanders.
Upon returning to Chicago. recent
Iy, Johnson issued statement in
which he said that he would pay $500 to
the man producing proof of sign steal
ing and would blacklist from the
American League any player or man
ager engaged in such practices. Now
Fullerton joins issue with Johnson in
the following statement:
The facts are these. I was Informed
on the first day of the Sox visit here
that New York was stealing signals.
refrained from mentioning it and asked
the players to produce proof. They sat
sfied me that they had enough proof to
convince anyone. Still, they lacked the
legal proof.
IF B. B. johnson will submit the ques-
ton to three persons. himself being one.
Pres. Joe Jackson of the Baseball Writ
ers' Association another and a third man
to be chosen by them and hear the evil
dence. I will guarantee to prove that the
New York club has been stealing the
signals of opposing teams this season
and last. and give the $500 which he Of
fers to charity.
II have the affidavits of players of the
Chicago. New York. Boston and Wash
ington clubs to back up the assertion.
One thing is certain. that neither john
son, Farrell nor Stallings will see the
proof until they agree to a free and open
hearing of the case.
The evidence is strong enough to con-
vict, but the White Sox players do not
want to present it to Johnson since john
son has already declared the New York
club not guilty. without hearing the evil
dence. which is sufficient ground for the
players to refuse to submit their case
to him.
II have the statements of three New
York players. of five Chicago players.
one Boston player and one Washington
player to back up the charge
The charge was not made by me- In
four days. during which I watched close
ly. could not see what was being done.
The players, however. held glasses on
the signal service and are willing to take
oath as to what they saw. I will take
issue with Mr.. Johnson and call the play
ers to testify if he will guarantee an i'm
partial hearing"

N. Y. PRESS CLUB GAMES.
Big Athletic Meet to Be Held in Amer
lean League Park.

New York, July 2S.-One of the great
est athletic meetings ever held in
America will take place in American
League park Saturday. Sept. II, when
the champions will gather for the sec
ond annual athletic carnival under
the auspices Of the New York Press
Club. James +. Sullivan, president of
the Metropolitan Association. has
promised his cooperation, and from
all indications the meet will be the
greatest held in New York since the
memorable clash between the London
Athletic Club and the New York Ath-
letic Club in 1895.
Melvin Sheppard and Martin Sheri-
dan have already volunteered their
services, and Lawson Robertson. train
err of the Irish American Athletic
Club. says he will enter all the star
athletes of the irish American Athletic
Club. The New York Athletic Club
and other big clubs of the district will
enter their strongest teams. Coming
one week after the senior metropolitan
championships all the athletes will be
in tine best condition, and the clash
between the East and the West will
give good line on what probably will
happen in the national track and field
championships. which will be held in
New Orleans a few weeks later.
