THE QUESTION OF PANIcs.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found an interesting communication
from Col. C. P. Goodyear on the sub
ject of panics.
In this article, Col Goodyear shows
by comparisons that the present pan.
ic is less severe than the one in
1898 or the earlier one in 1857. Col
onel Goodyear goes into the subject
broadly and by unanswerable argu-
ments makes it plain that the panic
of 1907 was really less disastrous to
the country and to its diversified in
dustries than was either of the other
periods of depression, to which we re-
fer
The News hopes, and it really looks
as if the country might be entering
into condition of things where pan,
les will cease entirely. However,
while the present disturbance might
not be as serious in its results as
has been some of the others, it is at
the same time true that never in the
history of the country has there been
time when a panic was as unneces-
sary ~as the present one. 1t came at
time when the country was unexam-
pied in prosperity, when the trade
balances We're on the correct side of
the record, ana when labor and capital
We're working in better harmony than
had been the case in years.
II would not take very far-sighted
student of the economics to figure out
the why's AMI WI erefores Of the pres
ent self-constructed and made-to-or
der panic.

OHIO, INDIANA MID ILLINOIS.

The following timely editorial is
from the Birmingham Age-Herald and
is full of sound food for thought:
In Illinois Adlai +. Stevenson, a
veteran politician. wealthy and con.
tent. sought yesterday the democra.
tic nomination fer governor He is
not running COR his health. He is run
ming TO be elected.
In Ohio Judson Harmon, one of the
most successful LAWYERS in the mid.
die west is seeking The nomination for
governor. He expects TO secure it
and to be elected
In Indiana, the democratic nominee
for governor is Colonel Marshall He
is personally popular and is perhaps
the finest stump speaker in that state.
He is also favored by certain local
issues.
Now, why are these men active in
politics? Are they pursuing vain IL
lusions? They are skilled experts at
the political game, and If defeat We're
in the air as II Vas four years ago, not
one of them would be candidate be-
fore the people. They are not men
who have been unsuccessful in life.
They are not men inclined to lead
forlorn hopes. They are leaders OF
the people and they know the people
of their respective states. All three
expect TO be elected. and il they are

JOE TERRELL's SAME EXCUSE.

Through well organized press bu-
.Teau, Joseph NJ. Terrell, formerly gov
ierner of Georgia and formerly attor-
ney general of the state, managed to
get his denial Interview PRETTY well
scattered in the press of the state Oh
Sunday morning. The interview in
question is a denial of any law break
ing on the part of Mr. Terrell when
he essayed to serve Jim English, con
yict lessee, while ne was serving the
people of the state of Georgia in the
office of attorney general and Incl
dentally was drawing a salary from
the state for that service.
Mr.. Terrell satisfies his wounded
conscience with the statement that
there is no law preventing the attor-
ney general from practicing law in
cases where the interest of the stale
are not in conflict. That may be true,
he may net be a criminal in the Ian
guage of the code of Georgia, bqt most
certainly he has violated a g6ral OBJ
legation, that man of mEe sensi-
tive ideas of ethics and %uty would
have spurned. When i'm English
sought the attorney general Of Geor-
gia for legal assislaEe in matter
touching upon his eOnvict leases, he
did not intend to employ J. NJ. Terrell,
the country lawyer He wanted the
services of the attorney general of
the state of Georgia to awe his adver-
sary, and he got them and doubtless
paid well for them, too.
There was once serving in the Uni
ted States senate a man by the name
of Burton, who represented the state
of Kansas in that great deliberatiye
body. He represented clients in
department of the federal government
and was held criminally and was COM
pSllCu W serve teIlu Ill lle OHilSu
States prison for his conduct. Where
was the difference between the crimes
of Senator Burton and Attorney Gen
eral Terrell?
1t may be that Georgia has not TAX
ien the precaniion TO pass such law
that reached Burton, but where is the
moral difference between the wrong
doing of these two officials?
There is none, and while the law
may not be able to reach the case of
Terrell, he is in spirit as guilty as
Burton was, though he may manage
TO escape the dire consequences that
fell to that individual.
The fact of the matter Is, there was
graft in and about and over and un
der the prison commission, and it
begins to look like the then attorney
general OF Georgia had his mouth to
the trough as well as Jake Moore and
the others.
And yet we heard something a few
weeks ago about Joe Terrell being a
candidate for the United States sen
ate!

HORRIBLE DEED OF A PREACHER Kills His Wife With a Knife. CLAIMS HE WAS INSANE Rev. 5. A. Coffman Had Just Con- cluded Successful Revival. He Declared That a Moment After the Crime He Regained His Senses
 and Realized What He
 Had Done.
CLAIMS HE WAS INSANE

Fairmont, W. Va, May 1s-Tempo- rarily insane. according to his own statement. the Rev. S. A. Coffman, aged 50 a prominent Methodist Episcopal clergyman. killed his wife early today by cutting her throat from ear to ear. A moment after the crime. he says. he regained his senses and realized what he had done. He immediately surren- dered himself and was locked up.
 Cofman resides at Rosstown. about three miles from here, and is in charge of two or three local churches. His wife was member of a prominent To- cal family and was 33 years old. Du- ring the past week or two he has been conducting a series of revival services and has been adding to the member ship of the churches under his care. Yesterday he finished his revival and appeared to be well pleased with the result. About midnight he and his wife were discussing the services. when he suddenly seized a poker and began striking her on the head.
 There was a struggle during which Mrs. Coffman succeeded In escaping from the house to a garden at the rear. She was followed closely. however, by her husband. and when he caught up with her another battle for her life took place. when she was overpowered. Coffman had taken a knife with him when he followed his wife to the garden and when he had her powerIess in his grasp he cut her throat from ear to ear, causing instant death. According to a statement made by the minister, when he looked on the lfeless body of his wife. his sanity was immediately restored and he realized what he had done.

A DEATH SENTENCE
SPECIAL MINISTER BUsTILLO OF
 HONDURAS CONDEMN ED.
Grave Reports on the Peace Situation of Central Amefscan Repub- Hes Brought To New
 Orleans By Steamer.

Puerto Cortez, Honduras. May Is via New Orleans, May 1S-Grave reports on the peace situation of the Central American Republics. were brought here today by passengers from Guatemala on the steamer Corinto
 These reports say that Special Minis ter Bustillo, of Honduras, has been sentenced to death and that the Mexi- can legation in which he has taken refuge. is surrounded by Guatemalan troops with orders not to let him leave the country alive.
 The sentence against Bustillo. ac- cordlng to the reports from the Corin- to. was pronounced on alleged proofs that he carried into Guatemala 2O,- 900 pesos to be spent in aiding a con spiracy against President Cabrera, of come from both President Zelaya, of Gamez and to have been consigned to Juan A Arias.
 The Corinto passengers said also that terrible whippings have been ad- ministered to Don Luis Midence, Manuel Lardizabae and others Arias. to whom the 10000 pesos were said to have been consigned. was reported to have received 200 lashes. Some of the Corinto passengers said they heard that three or four persons were being shot daily. They said that Guatemala had about 4000 men under arms
 Reports that Honduras has been massing troops on the GuatemAlan frontier have not been confirmed here. and apparently are without foundation.

NOT FOR PROHIBITION.
Socialist Convention Makes Miatai<e
 and Then COrrects It.


 and Then COrreets It.
 Chicago. May 1s-The Socialist cons vention just before final adjournmenk last night, committed It's affairs 10 prohibition. and then instantly re- versed its action when the mistake was made clear to the delegates.
 The day had been devoted to con@ mittea reports. and when. in the even- ing the report of the Finnish transla@ tor was brought in and was seen to be a voluminous work, a motion was nlada and unanimously carried that 1t be adopted without reading and without discussion.
 Comrade Victor Berger, of Milwau- kee. however, remembered that the Finnish element in the party is en- thusiastic over the prohibition question and hastened to scan the report for objectionable recomme endations The convention just had decided that it's work was finished. had given three rousinE cheers for the social revoiu- tion," and was singing the 'marseil- laise" when the searcher's fears were confirmed. He sprang on top of a table and broke up the singing of the party hymn with Justly Shouts "com- rades," he cried. what an awful mis- take we have made. This Is a reeom- mendation which had been adopted" therefore recommend that the plank pros hibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors be not inserted in the party platform" Why, that Is enough to wipe the party off the map"
 After a moments breathIess silence. the convention unanimously undid it's rash act and resumed the singing Of the "marseillaise."

DALLAS.

Selma. May 1s.-(Special At mid night the State ticket has not been completed in counting by the inspectors in the primary election of today, in the city boxes.
 In the Third Ward. after the county ticket had been counted and about half of the State ticket the inspectors wearied and postponed the remainder of the counting until tomorrow.
 Enough returns have been received from the city and county to demon strate that Bryan has carried Dallas overwhelmingly. In the Second Ward. the largest ward in the city. with only about thirty more votes to be count ed, Bryan has received 1855 to John sons l15. In the Fifth Ward Bryan received 91 to Johnson's 45. In the country precincts. few in number heard from, Bryans majority Is overwhelm- ing.
 The accredited Bryan delegates from the State at large will run with vary ing strength. Heflin probably leading the ticket.
 Thus far in the race for Associate Justices, Simpson and Mayheld will distance all opponents. Lusk will re- ceive the lightest vote. not over 300 all told. with Alston and Chiffon next
 For elector O'Neal and Pugh will lead Rountree by about to 1.
 The county tcket resulted Tn the election of Lumpkin. Tax Assessor. and Phillips, Tax Collector. over Lloyd and Babcock my maJorities more than 2 to 1. In fact the county race was foregone conclusion and not a great deal of interest was taken in it.
 The race for constable in the city precinct between F. J. Bowline, Phil lips Fulford and NJ R. Jones was per haps the hottest local fight of the day and resulted in the nomination of Full ford by 166 plurality.

BY ALFRED J. STOPPER.

Washington, May 1S.-(Specfal.) )-T& is learned on good authority that sev- eral more Republican Senators have an- nounced their determination to vote against Oscar R. Hundley, and even friends of Hundley in the Senate res luctantly admit that there Is no prose pect of his confirmation this session
 The opposition is more stubborn than ever. and 1t is an undeniable fact that he was allowed to be reported to the Senate by a majority of one. at least three of those voting that way having declared that they reserved the right to block on the floor his confirmation in the event they found things in the testimony they had been informed had been brought out showing Hundleya unworthiness to occupy the position.
 It is understood their inquiries have caused them to take a firm stand against him.
 Two Republican members of the Ju- dietary Committee were not present at the meeting when the case was ordorea reported. One Is Senator Foraker and the other Is Senator Kittredge. Had they been present, Hundley would have been rejected. 1t is said. by a majority of one.
 Hackers of Hundley have been. spreading the report that Senator Ba- con Is really the only member of the Judiciary Committee opposed to eon- nrmatioh. That Is known here to be about as wide of the truth as any state~ ment that could be sent out.
 The Senate journal was, today cor rected to show that Hundley was not confirmed Saturday as printed in The Congressional Record yesterday morn ing.
 Thp Associated Press was naturally misled by the mistake of the executive clerk. who failed to erase the name of Hundley from the list after a Repubii- can Senator on Saturday demanded that 1t be passed over so that absent Sena- tors could read the testimony.
 Opponents of Hundiey are so deter mined to defeat him that they say they will light to the last ditch. and they now declare that he will not be con- hrned thfa session.
