Surely Time to Call Halt on Ken
tucky's Assassins.

Lexington, Ky, May 4.-Just
after he had finished filing papers,
reorenlng the contested election
cases of Breathitt county, James
B. Marcum was shot and killed to-
day by an unknown assassin. He
fell in the front entrance of the
court house at Jackson, KY, and
never spoke, death being almost
instantaneous. He fell within a
few yards of where Town Marshal
James Cockrell was shot down in
July, the assassin being stationed
IN the court house in each instance.
Marcum was counsel for the fu-
sionists, who are contesting for the
Offices of county judge, sheriff
and other places now held by De-
mocrats. AS a result of his efforts
and his sympathy with the Cock
rell faction in the Hargis Cockrell
feud he had for II year been gen.
orally regarded as marked man.
Marcum was trustee of the
