CALLAHAN MURDER
CASE TRIALS CALLED

WINCHESTER, Ky, Dec. i18.-A
series of trials that will be watched
with interest all over the country ar.
about to begin in the Clark, circui,
court here. The trials result from
the assassination of former Sheriff
Ed Callahan and will mark sanothe,
chapter in Breathitt county feudal
history.
Callahan was riddled with rifle bull
lets as he stood in the door of his
store one day last spring. His assas-
sination caused no surprise in the
neighborhood, for the formeF sheriff
had long been a conspicuous figure in
the Breathitt county feuds. In the
language of the mountaineers he had
been a marked man ever since he was
tried and acquitted nearly ten years
ago on the charge of having insti.
gated the assassination of James b.
Marcum Mt Jackson.
Fifteen men are under Indictment
for the Callahan murder Separate
trials have been asked for each de-
fendant and the probabilities are that
it will be several months before all of
the cases are disposed of iThe first
to be tried will be Asbury Mcintosh,
who is accused Of being thei ringlead-
er in the conspiracy to murder Gala
han. The prosecuting attorneys de-
clares they have good chance to con-
vict Mcintosh, and with him proved
guilty, they will have sufficient evil
dence to gain conviction in the case

BLUE SKY" LAWS.

The decision of the Investment
Bankers association that its members
ought to advocate the enactment of
blue sky" laws in their various states
is the latest evidence of the changing
point of view of big business" toward
state regulation. The "blue sky law,
which exists at present only in Kan
sas, haunt of paternalism and near
populism, is scheme by which the
state government endeavors to pro-
tect its citizens with a little spare
charge for investment from the fly
by-night capitalist" who would capi-
talize the sky and the waters under
the earth and collect money on the
shares issued against them. 1t re-
quires the approval of the banking
commissioner before new series of
securities may be offered for sale in
the state, and his judgment that they
would yield fair return on the
money invested.
A few years ago such a proposal
would have been hissed out of the
"capitalistic east" as wild-eyed popu-
lism, if not scheme for extortion
and blackmail. Since then public and
big business" have had the educa-
tional course of state regulation af-
forded by public service commissions.
In this state the public service COM
missions now have a sort of "blue
sky" power over the issue of securi-
ties by public service companies, both
on the beginning of business and on
reorganization. No dreadful cataclysm
has resulted-indeed, it has been
found to be rather an asset to be able
to show that the state itself gives as
| surance that there is no water in an
issue of securities. There is no ques-
ton about the benefit to the pub
lie and the bankers, of law requir-
ing the filing with state official of
facts regarding new securities offer
ed for sale, particularly what tan
gible assets are behind them. Nc
honest concern or legitimate enter
prise need fear it. No sympathy need
be wasted on any other kind.-New
York Tribune.

"A panic" he said, according to
authorities, is condition of mind. As
matter of fact, there is just as
much money the day after as there
was the day before. There is another
kind of panic that is precipitated by
unfriendly interests.
IF any man undertakes to precipi-

paid after, but will put upon him
a mark that will be felt as long as
