Atlanta, Ca, Dec. 17.-Thre<,
brothers killed each other in a tight
over Richard Banefield, one of the
brothers The dead are 'Whack, Rich
ard and Alfred Banefield. The sher~
if has gone to the scene of the trae-
edy in Cleburne county, Alabama.
London, Dec. 10 When the his
tory of the present campaign is writ
ten, it will go on record as one Of
the most sensational election fighE
Great Britain has witnessed. The lib
erals have completely recovered
from the shock caused by Leader
| Baifour's announcement that the
unionists would be willing to submit
tariff reform to referendum, and
are doing their best to intensity the
dissatisfaction felt by those of MI
Balfour's party who do not agree
with him, in the hopes of putting the
unionists to utter route The un-
ionists are planning ON gaining TWEEN
ty one seats in order to reduce the.
governments coalition majority be-
low fifty. In the last parliament
the government has a coalition lean
of 124 votes.
| Home Secretary Winston Church
ill is proving himself the most un-.
firing speaker of the campaign or.
the government side. He has na
equal except to allow for the iiiffe.
ence in age and strength betwee1s
him and Sir Edward Grey and cor
plete the comparison in that way. Alr
Churchill makes from five to six
speeches every day, travelling iIosN
city to city, without thought of the
personal inconvenience it causes hip,
or the demands it makes on his en-
ergy and strength. Frequently ha
answers in the last speech of the day
an address made by member OF the
opposition in city fifty or sixty
niels distant, and which has not
been given the press beforehand. In
order to get copy of these speeches
Churchill has his private stenogra
piers copy them verbatim at the op-
position meetings, then translate
them while making the trip between
cities in automobiles provided espe-
cially for the purpose.
| There are those who predict this
resignation of Premier Asquith in
the event of the government being
returned with coalition vote OF
only fifty or sixty. In that case A.
j. Balfour, the opposition leader
would probably be invited by tha
king to form new cabinet. Every
thing would again be thrown into
the melting pot, for the only course
| open to Balfour, who, by the way
was prime minister in 1902-5 would
be another appeal to the country
The whole situation has assumed
something of comic aspect to out
| siders, but there is nothing humorous
in the feelings on either side in the
great campaign, and Great Britain
has never been more deeply aroused
politically
Many of the great Indian princes
who had reserved extensive suites in
London hotels for the coronation
have cancelled these reservations
since King Georges announcement
OF his intention of journeying to Del
nj In 1912, to hold coronation dur
bar. The event will make Lord Har~
dinge's rule among the most memoir
able of vice-royalties. King George,
likes the idea from purely imperi-
al1stic standpoint, but he also firm
ly believes that the precedent he in
tends to establish will have a great
effect upon the popular unrest which
OF late has been assuming such men,
acing proportions.
In the meantime Italy is also pre-
parlng for great celebration next
year. The occasion will be the Gel
ebration of the fiftieth anniversary
OF the proclamation of the kingdom.
Thurin and Rome will hold great ex-
hibltlons to commemorate the event,
the former and the present capitals
OF the country rivaling eachother i'm
the magnificense of their fetes. Much
attentlon will be given to the com
petition for rowing and motor boats
Inc chief event will consist of trip
from Turin to Rome by way of Ven
Ice. The so-called cruise will be
divided into three independent sec
lions, the first for rowing boats on.
~ the second for small motor boats.
and the third comprising the trip
from Venice to Rome, for large mo-
tor boats. The competition will be-
