0 Pm Dee AlTtoiU. 8 8mm tin* ??, Carlos Corbett 1 Wat oat one night ud found some trash oa firs la ths road near his bam. It had been set on fire by the back fire from an automobile which had stalled at that point and in which five men were riding. Corv> belt was so Infuriated that he tried to kill the whole party* He succeedeg in 'killing three of the men and Jr seriously wounded' a fourth. The fifth man escaped by falling to the groung and feigning death till he got an 'opportunity to get up . | and run away. Corbett was a man I of property and influence. He was tried for killing one of | the men and was acquitted, after * ' the jury had deliberated for several' hours. | When he ?"\s placed on trial for kill Inr annthor nno nf tho men Judge S. G. W. Shipp ruled that!* be could not be tried again, as the < wholesale killing was all one act, for which he had been acquitted. !< This ruling set a very dangerous: precedent. It made it possible for' a man, when he might have a justifiable excuse for killing one man, , to also kill any number of Innocent j; by-standers without fear of punish- i ment if he should be acquitted for killing the first man. If Bryan Sal-j ley, for whose murder Corbett was tried, first drew a pistol and tried to shoot Corbett, the latter may have been justified in shooting him; but that did not justify Corbett in turning on the1 other men and try-: ing to wipe out the whole bunch. The solicitor appealed from Judge Shipp's decision an^j the supreme' court has reversed him and says that Corbett may be fled for each I p* /f the homicides. \ e circuit judges of the state sat wisn the supreme court in the case. 8 Supreme court Justices Cothran, Fraser and Gary, an<j Circuit Judges Prince, Wilson, Sease, Gary, Moore,1 Bowman, Maudlin, Peurlfoy, Town-j send, DeVore and Rice agreed that! Judge Shipp should be overruled,' while Justice Watts was in favor of sustaining Judge Shipp's decision. It is Intimated that Corbett's attorneys may appeal to the supreme court of the United States. There can hardly be any doubt as to that court's decision. Corbett may ac compiish ms purpose, However, uy -wearing the case out by long delay so that he can finally be acquitted of all the murders when he finally has to face trial. COOPER OPENS CAMPAIGN. i Noah W. Cooper, one of the Cooper brothers of Mullins, well-known bankers and merchants of North and South Carolina, is a candidate for congress In Tennessee. The main plenk in Mr. Cooper's platform is "Freeing the Sunday Slaves." He contends for a law which will pro-, hibit men from working on Sundays. A year or so ago Mr. Cooper carried his fight to Washington, appeared before a House committee and asked for legislation that would compell the observance of Sunday laws. The following dispatch is from Lebanon, Tenn., Mr. Cooper's adopted home. Lebanan, Tenn.?Noah W. Cooper, Nashville lawyer and a champion of rigid Sunday observance laws opened his campaign for the Democratic nomination here in addition to the freeing of "Sunday slaves" urg\ ig immediate disarmament by the i X'nited States as an example to the other nations of the world. * "On November 11, when the con-' ference meets, have our secretary of peace tell them good news that, we have stopped building battleships and armies and want them to follow us was Mr. Cooper's program. He suggested such a man as John R. Mott or Francis E. Clark for secretary of peace, to succeed the Secretary of War and Secretary of the Navy. The sensational primary will be held next August. What the iioil Weevil Dicl. "I have just returned from a trip to Lee and Darlington counties," remarked Mr. C. L. Moody, "and condi-; tions over there are just about what we had in the fall of 1914. I did not visit the farms, but I understand that only about 30 per cent of a crop was made. This short crop reflects itself in the towns I visited. Very little business was going on. It might have been a duH day, but there were not as many people on the streets as you would And in Dillon on a pretty Sunday. What few I saw were gather ed in groups here and there and I presume they were talking hard times. I went into several stores and, never saw more than one customer in the store at a time. I found the proprietor sitting down reading a news-( paper. He was proprietor, clerk, book keeper and everything else. I talked to him about an hour and during that time he had one customer? a bry who wanted a package of cigar-' ettes. I take it for granted that Dillon does more business in a day than, these towns do in a week. But then, Dillon is the best town in the State; for its size, anyway. Everybody will tell you that." STRANGE CASE. Rockingham Times. A picture of an elderly man J with gray hair and long gray beardl recently appeared on a mirror inj the home of Roscoe Garner, a Duplin farmer, living near here and cannot be eratsed- News of the strange apparition spread rapidly and caused no end o^speculation as to the causu (of its appearance there; and hundreds from far and near have Journeyed to the Garner home to satisfy their own curiosity about it. But the likeness remains. ?Clinton News Dispatch. (Some people may not believe the above, but this wrtter has seen something similar to it. Some .of the readers of The Times remember Capt. J. B. Hogan, who ran as conductor on the Seaboard from Raleigh to Moopoo. Several moitha before hie death there appeared oa a mirror that food' In the hallway of hie home in Raleigh the featurea'of a man'k face. It could not be eraeed, but after the* death pf Capt. Ho (an the face dleap-V peered. Many people saw the picture on the glees but could not account for it.?Tlmea.) o 'j TOUCHED RESPONSIVE CHORD.* _______ I ' The article that appeared in The Herald a few weeks ago under the * caption "Are We Headed for thel Rocks?" has been widely quoted. We' do not say this in spirit of egotism, but merely to show that the article) touched a responsive chord. It called attention to the fast pace at which J the world is moving, an<j Incidentally j mentioned that indulgent parents and automobiles were largely responsible , for the fast pace at which the youth of the land are moving. Amon^ the 1 comments is one from The Newberry 1 Herald an<j News which we repro- 1 duce below: 1 We print an article fromthe Dillon < Herald, and also some comments on 1 it from The Calhoun Times. It is a < timely article, but it is useless to talk i about the parents doing anything to correct this tendency of which you < speak, because they are really en- 1 couraeinr it. T/ink irnnru vnnr own ? town and note the automobile* park- 1 ed from day to day alone the streets 1 and see how many of them are owned ( by your young business men who pos- 1 sibly do not lire two blocks from their places of business and many of; the clerks and wage earners who are young and working on meager wage, and see why they are there. Go ?o' Columbia and look how the streets are lined with cars owned hv the men who lire but a few blocks from their places of business, and inquire why these cars are there. These people I cannot walk any more to their work.| It Is not the style. It is out of date to walk. And then the children can not walk to school any more. Two miles, why the idea of any child having to walk two miles to school even on a \ fine road, it is preposterous. 1 And these cars parked along the streets leave no room for the traffic, and no place for the people who come from the country to trade to park their cars, and >*et " y?u should mention it these town fellows would say that they have as much right to th?? space as any one else, and we suppose ifrom a legal point of view they have hut we should sometimes consider the rights of the other fellow and his convenience, but that too is a lost art. The auto intoxication is worse in some respects than the liquor intox-j ication, because it is so much more general and so respectably indulged in by both sexes and all age? and conditions, whether financially able to take of the draught or not. If you should gently hint to a young girl that it is not exactly t^e right thing to be taking late night rides with a young man and suggest that it would not have been tolerated in your day, 3he is highly insulted and takes you for an old out of date. The old editors of the Times and The Herald may be out of date, but the fact remains that they are speaking the gospel truth, and there has got to be a halt some where and .> me 1 time and that hnfr?r?? vorv loin and we are now going at such a rapid Bpeed that the stop may be so sudden that if we are not in perdition we will imagine we are when the shook comes. Then the au t as ami th auto rides have a tend en t .van among our young folk to - grot and too easy a familiarity, and you may recall what the ol(i adage i ? about familiarity. And nm- b can take time to think what that will lead to, and if you have n-t th time we warn you to ta'te it be'ore it is too late. We are jrst as young flOV ATnam t rm MMW&AJUDA ML ?
