LET THE RULE STAND.

One of those rumors for when
no one seems to be responsible, and
for which perhaps there may be no
foundation, states there is move
ment on foot to change the plan oil
choosing a senator to represent the
district embracing Terrell, Randolph
and Clay counties. The rumor mas II
that an effort is being quietly maze
10 have the rotary system, that is the
rule of allowing each county to name
one of its citizens in turn for the
office, ignored this year and the three
counties allowed to vote upon candl-
dates at will in a district primary
The News does not know the
source from whence came this queer
rumor that has the nerve to start out
to overthrow long established Gus
tom and precedent The origin OF
if. however, is of very little conse-
uuence. What is more important is
the effort, if there be such on foot,
to abolish the rotary system OF
choosing the senator and substitute
change of some kind that may not
prove as satisfactory
Whether the present rotary sys-
tenn is the best plan or not, it has
proven satisfactory TOT such a long
time that it would seem that a
change at this time is altogether I'M
necessary.
If the rotary system is abolished
and district primary substituted it
is not unlikely that We will say fare
well to the peace and harmony that
has so long prevailed in the district. |
Two of the three counties could unite
at any time and dictate absolutely to
the other county in a primary.
Even if they did not care to send |
one of their own citizens they would |
have numerical strength TO choose !
the minority candidate in the coun-
ty whose time it would be to name the
senator, and thereby defeat the will |
of a majority Of the voters therein.
such a situation would J
be unfair, and if for no other reason
than this the present rotary system
should be adhered to.
We do not know whether the ru-
NOR has any real gum in it or not,
but if it should turn out that an
effort is being made to put some into
it then the duty of the district ex-
ecutive committee is quite clear. 1t
should be promptly slain on the spot.
There was a similar movement in
the Atlanta senatorial district re-
Gently, but its life was brief The
people and the newspapers-the
Journal and the Constitution
bounced upon it and pounded it to
death in short order.

The Dalton Citizen has started a
crusade against perquisites, or "fee
grabbing" among the officials of
that town. Our contemporary is
right. No official, especially one of
a municipality, should have to look
to perquisites for his salary. There
is much that can be said against this
practice, and a great many towns
are abolishing it.

COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT HER
DR.. Hass Killed Himself on His
Wife's Grave

New York, Dec. 3.-Depressed by an
apparently uncomfortable melancholia
which haunted him since the suicide
Of his wife on an ill-omened day, Fri
day, Nov. 13, last, DR.. Randolph F..
Hass, Lexington avenue dentist,
ended his life yesterday by swallow
ing poison. He was kneeling on the
grave of his wife in Woodlawn ceme-
terry as he drank the fatal poison and
Waterman who some days ago had
prevented his suicide with a revolver
on the same spot, was unable to reach
him in time to prevent the accom-
| plishment Of the deed yesterday. DR..
Hass died within a few minutes. One
of his closest friends, DR.. Philip Gold
stein, upon hearing of the tragedy,
| told of the heartbroken existence DR..
Hass has led since the death of his
| wife; that he had daily visited and
placed flowers upon the grave, had
closed his home and gone to live with
his sister-in-law and had neglected
his practice His professional work,
it was said, had been largely dropped
for some time before his wife's death
because of an apparently insane jeal-
ousy on her part toward his patients.
For more than a fortnight before
shooting herself she had compelled
him to remain away from his office,
and it was as he was leaving their
apartment to fill some important en-
gageents that she took her life. Mrs.
Hass was a remarkably beautiful wo-
man and the two had been married
| but a short time
