MURDEROUS BULLET UPHOLDS PROHIBITION" AMENDMENT (Condinued from page 1, column 3.) Running for governor at the same time was Malcolm R. Patterson, the son of the Josiah Patterson whom Carmack had defeated for congress in 1S96. Carmack hated the son on general principles. Cooper liked Patterson and supported him. Carmack swung his influence toward Gov. Cox. Patterson won. Col. Duncan Brown Cooper, now totally bald and extremely emphatic in his opinions, was greatly pleased. Both his horses had won. But Cooper didn't crow about it. He took his winning in the same spirit.he had won on/3 loot tiiniieaiiHa r»f dollars across auu xisoi/ v. the green baize table. His whole philosophy of life was contained in a quatrain that he often recited to friends in the Hoffman House bar on his frequent New York visits: No matter what you sing or say, The world rolls on in the same old way, And he who would possess his soul Must hold on tight and let her roll. Carmack was never a philosopher. at least not in defeat. He declared | he was out of politics for good. He went to Memphis to resume the practice of law. But the lure of pubilc office was too great. He announced himself as a candidate for governor against Patterson. The Anti-Saloon League. The latter had spent two years in building up a powerful political machine of his own. Distiller and brewers, bartenders and gamblers, honest business men, who honestly believed that "open towns" meant good business, reactionary Democrats who passed the plate Sundays, shrewd men who thought Patterson had given the state a good administration.all these gathered under the Patterson standard. Then the Anti-Saloon League step- 1 ped actively into Tennessee politics. Before that the league had chirped, f but had been throttled by the whisky ring. The Anti-Saloon League demanded state-wide prohibition. Patterson would not advocate it. He stood for local option.if the public had to have prohibition of any kind. The Anti-Saloon League turned to the other side, and there was Xed Car- j mack, smiling an invitation. Right j then Edward Ward Carmack lost j votes. He had never been known to j certain of his intimates as a whiteribbon teetotaler. For the first time since the Civil War the churches of Tennessee en-': tered politics. The doctrine of "Jesus Chri9t" and Him Crucified" was laid aside for the time and that of "Carmack and state-wide prohibition" preached in its place. Bitterness dropped out. Business partners disagreed on the relative < merits of local option or a dry state. Brothers hated one another for their i political stand. Fathers and sons dif- < fered. i Cooper, of course, was giving his support to Patterson. In a sense he had been the Col. House of Patter- < son's administration and his keen ] brain was aiding Patterson's campaign. But Cooper wa9 making no < speeches. He was no more orator. He 1 pulled the wires and watched the t puppets dance. f Carmack became incensed at Cooper's activities and began to openly 1 berate him on the stump with that i peppery tongue. Day after day he re- 1 ferred to the man who had given him * his start in journalism and even went 2 so far one night as to ask whether "baldheaded angel Dune Cooper was c an angel of darkness or of light, or if ^ there is not the smell of sulphur in t his feathers." * That sunk deep. Cooper was noth- i ing if not dignified. Carmack was ^ forty-nine, Cooper sixty-five, and feel- t ing his age. Word went to Carmack i tnat uooper was iouc>ny auoui ais baldness. The colonel felt tie was responsible for his own individual * acts, but as far as his physical ap- pearance was concerned, "the Lord ( hath given, and the Lord hath taken c away, blessed be the name of the f Lord." S The Vulnerable spot. . But Carmack had found the vulnerable spot. Achilles didn't have a tender heel, but he had a bald head.Oh, joy on the stump. Time and again Carmack referred 1 to "bald-headed angel Dune Cooper." He went further. He began to em- £ phize the question 4iis bald-headed ( Dune Cooper an angel of darkness or of light." The Colonel's father had i owned many slaves. \ There are some epithets that fight- { ing men will not take of God or the 1 devil. Poking fun at an old man's ( bald head was the height of bad taste, but to make the veiled insinuation!; * * * that was the unpardonable 11 offense. Carmack was made editor of the Nashville Tennesseean and went gun-j ning for his enemies. His defeat had ' made the anti-Saloon league far more militant. Sermons were preached in churches flaying Patterson as the ^1 scion of the devil. Carmack became the leader of a Lost Cause admired in defeat. The Tennesseean's new editor considered "bald-headed angel Dune" as the chief cause of his downfall. He began to attack him in his editorial columns. One day Carmack poured an extra portion of vitriol into his ink-holder, and wrote this editorial, entitled. The Diplomat of Zweibund. "To Major Duncan Brown Cooper, who wrought the great coalition, who achieved the harmonious confluence of incompatible elements, who welded the pewter handle to the wooden spoon, who grafted fche dead bough to the living tree and made it bloom and bend with golden fruit, who made laymates of the lamb and the leopard and boon companions of the spider and the fly, who made sod and vinegar to dwell placidly in the same bottle and who taught oil and water how they might agree; to Major Duncan Brown Cooper, the great diplomat of the political Zweibund, be all honor and glory forever." Cooper read that editorial.and saw red. That was Sunday morning, Nov. 8, 1908. Monday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, Senator Carmack, was walking on Seventh Avenue. At Union street Col. Cooper and his twenty-eight-year old son, Robin, hove in sight. There was shooting. Carmack fell dead with one bullet under the heart, one in the left shoulder, and one in the neck. Robin Cooper was wounded in the right shoulder. Duncan Cooper had not fired a shot, though he had drawn his revolver from his pocket. He was unscathed. There is no use trying to explain who shot first. The point is still argued in Tennessee. "Carmack.the Martyr." Nov. 14, 191$, the Coopers and John D. Sharp, an ex-sheriff with them at the time of the shooting, were indicted. In the spring of 1919 the Anti-Saloon league, determined to avenge the death of Ned Carmack, demanded that the legislature pass the statewide prohibition act. The legislature did 90. All over the south and the mid-west Protestant denominations were demanding that the saloon be abolished as a "tribute to Carmack." The Northwest Methodist conference at Dallas, Tex., passed resolutions deploring Carmack's death, denouncing the supporters of liquor interests in politics and declaring that "Carmack died a martyr to the cause of prohibition and civic righteousness." Feb. 23, 1909, Col. Cooper testifying at the trial for this life, said he had heard Carmack using his name many times in the late gubernatorial campaign and referred to the ' black and white" insinuation. March 20,1909, the Coopers, father and son, were found "guilty of murder in the second degree and sentenced to twenty years in prison." The cases were appealed. April 13, 1910, the supreme court of the state affirmed Duncan Cooper's case, and reversed the son's. Before the ink was dry on the decision Gov. Patterson issued a pardon :o Duncan Cooper. It actually reached ;he office of the secretary of state before Cooper left the capitol for jail. That was the last straw that broke ;he prohibition camel's back. Carnack had been assassinated by the Whiskey Trust, and now his "redlanded murdered" was given a full md complete pardon! The liquor forces, bloated with >ver-confidence, awoke to the menace vhich confronted them, but it was oo late. Through the small towns and lomlotc nf AmonVa fnr a dppadp had jone the tale of the gallant Carmack rho gave his life for "the cause." Prolibition and civic righteousness were rrevocably linked. Carmack was enihrined.

Running for governor at the same
time was Malcolm R. Patterson, theson of the Josiah Patterson whom
Carmack had defeated for congressin 1S96. Carmack hated the son on
general principles. Cooper liked Pattersonand supported him. Carmackswung his influence toward Gov. Cox.
Patterson won.
Col. Duncan Brown Cooper, now
totally bald and extremely emphaticin his opinions, was greatly pleased.Both his horses had won. But Cooperdidn't crow about it. He took his winningin the same spirit.he had won
on/3 loot tiiniieaiiHa r»f dollars acrossauu xisoi/ v.
the green baize table. His whole
philosophy of life was contained in a
quatrain that he often recited to
friends in the Hoffman House bar on
his frequent New York visits:
No matter what you sing or say,The world rolls on in the same old
way,And he who would possess his soulMust hold on tight and let her roll.
Carmack was never a philosopher.at least not in defeat. He declared |he was out of politics for good. He
went to Memphis to resume the
practice of law. But the lure of pubilcoffice was too great. He announcedhimself as a candidate for
governor against Patterson.
The Anti-Saloon League.The latter had spent two years in
building up a powerful political machineof his own. Distiller and brewers,bartenders and gamblers, honest
business men, who honestly believedthat "open towns" meant good business,reactionary Democrats who
passed the plate Sundays, shrewd men
who thought Patterson had given thestate a good administration.all thesegathered under the Patterson standard.

Carmack was made editor of theNashville Tennesseean and went gun-jning for his enemies. His defeat had '
made the anti-Saloon league far more
