WHILE, of course. nobody could pre-
dict with certainty the outcome of the
Cooper case. there is little reason to feel
surprised at what has developed. The
killing of Carmack by the COoperS. was
Just an ordinary assassination. That
it grew out of politics and would not
have occurred except for politics. there
is little reason to doubt; but tnat does
not in any wise soften the cOwardliness
or the brutality of il. The whole Incl
dent amounts to about this The people
were divided along the usual lines. and
the two parties were cOntending for the
power to conduct the government OF
Tennessee in accordance with their
was in the ascendancy and that ascen-
dancy was being threatened by the
Carmack faction. Both sides were nat
ually at high tension; but under all
the rules of reason and common sense,
ii was incumbent upon them to abb
stain from violence. The Coopers,
however. unable to withstand the
sting of Carmack'S ridicule, waylaid
and assassinated him. The further ad-
Indication of the matter was transfer
red to the courts. where it was suppos-
ed that even handed justice would be
meted out. The lower court did its
duty and perhaps the supreme court
did the same. 1t is clear, however, tnat
the latter acted in very hesitating
manner, and it does not seem to have
been certain that it was right. The
governor at once came to the rescue
of his friend, and probably accomplice,
Col. Cooper and granted him a pardon.
That Robin would have been pardon
ed had his case been similarly
ended, there is very little doubt. Under
the circumstances. the whole thing
looks worse than ever, and if Tennessee
had much respect for law and order to
begin with, there is reason to fear that
it will be a long while before that res
pect is fully restored.

perintendent Of the United States naval
observatory. said today, in speaking of
the famous heavenly visitor:
"Halley's comet was first observed
from the United States weather bureau
here about the middle OF last October.
Before that time II mad been observed
by photographers. 1t is about as bright
as a sixth magnitude star. Such a star
on a dark, clear night would be just
visible to the naked eye.
1T will move away from the sun
that is, it will rise earlier and earlier
in the morning until about May |. ii
will rise about hours and 40 minutes
before the sun. Observations at the
naval observatory will be continued un-
til the comet entirely disappears. Af-
ter that 1t will go back toward the sun
again and will transit across the sun
on the morning Of May 10, then becOm-
ing an evening object, setting after the
sun, and will be visible in the west. 1t
will go out rapidly away from the sun
and can be seen best at that time"

Afraid of a Shadow-The Greenwood


Journal says it is glad that no mar
riagc license law passed at the last seS-
sion of the South Carolina Legislature,
and gives as its reason the fear that
lit might lead further and result in a
divorce law" The view thus express
ed is not peculiar to the Journal. 1t
is commonly entertained by many eX-
cellent and intelligent persons, and 1t
has blocked this much needed legis-
lation for years. Let uS stand fast
and keep marriage pure and indisso-

actly what it Is impossible to do in the
present circumstances, exactly what a
marriage license law is expected to

menace tn South Cardinals present
attitude as affects divorce, such law
would inevitably tend to assist mater
