Ex-senator Carmack Slain.

Asa result of g street fight on 7th Avenue,
Nashville. Tenn. Ex-United States Senator.
Edward Ward Carmrck 10 dead and his
slayer, Robert Cooper, IL slightly wounded.
The difficulty grew out Of some editorials
appearing in the Nashville Tannesseean. q
paper OF which Senator Carmack has recent
~ been made editor, In which Col. Duncan
B. Cooper, a prominent party leader, was
severely criticised. Col. Cooper was q friend
to Gov. Patterson In his recent race for Gov
ernor OF Tennessee against, Senator Csrmack.
Col. Cooper's friends claim that at the time
the parties met, he and his son were leaving
the Governors office by q cirouitous route 10
avoid q meeting with Senator Carmack.
This they said they were doing at the advice
OF the Governor and other friends. An eye
witness, q lady to whom Mr.. Csrmack had
Just spoken, says that as the elder Cooper and
bis son advanced toward Senator Carmack
she heard him say: "We've got you all right"
or something to that effect. Sen. Csrmsck
reached for his pistol when the same voice
said: "You coward, you are hiding behind q
woman" She says that Mr.. Carmack In
stantly jumped aside 10 az TO get clear Of her
and In another instant he fell all IN q heap.
She thinks that Robert Cooper fired the first
shot. Col. Cooper, Robin Cooper's father, did
not shoot though he stood ready. pistol in
hand.
How he was killed, is matter Of little CON-
sequence. He 10 dead, and underlying his
death Is q lesson that Newspaper men must
sooner or later learn: that the individual will
not tolerate insult from a newspaper any
mora than from an Individual.
Senator Carmaok was defeated for United
States Senator by Governor Bob Taylor. and
we have no hesitancy in ssying that he
would have made a better Senator than Gov.
Taylor can ever make. He wss defeated for
Governor by Gov. Patterson, and with all due
regard for Gov. Patterson's fitness for the
place, as was exempiined In putting down
night riding In his State, Senator Carmack
would nave made as good a Governor. He
was In fact one OF the great men OF the nation;
q man OF great powers. OF logic and polite
Il vective. He was perhaps dreaded in de-
bate by Republican Senators more than any
man, with the possible exception OF Senator
Tillman, on the Democratic eide OF the Sen
ate. He used the scimitar where TIllman
like Richard uses bis good broad sword.
But neither greatness nor mental force count
for aught when the editor Is confronted by
the man who he has tried to regulate for the
public good. The editor In holding mp the
public career OF the Citizen should be entirely
impersonal. and very sure of bis facts. Be-
yond this IL sacred ground.

The national democratic and republican
platforms stand for much In common. Re-
publicans stand for revision Of the tariff
while democrats stand for REVISION and re.
duction Of tariff rates. On the currency
question both parties are at sea, and time
alone will envolve a real solution. A leading
republican paper actually mistook a part OF
the republican platform for a, part OF one OF
Mr.. Bryan's speeches and wrote a very severe
article criticising the supposed speech.
When party distinctions are 80 finely drawn,
the ordinary citizen need not fear greatly
the public policy.
Asid$ from the national issues involved,
there j one good reason for the triumph OF
demoAacy. The long tenure of office by one
party, and hence by the office holders of that
party, tends to q state Of la1ness and corrup.
ton. Party leaders become arrogant and
careless Of the public trust; and 30 public ex-
pendttures grow. The bounds of economic
appropriations are over run, and wasteful
extravaganza obtains instead.
A little season OF Democracy, inst an INFER
regnum as 1t were, would purify and improve
the situation. While this Is idle talk, now
that the people have spoken, there is left one
consolation: We have scared them badly,
and they will for a little while have 10 be on
their good behavior.
