BIRMINGHAM, AZA.. Sept. 17 As

the, result of a clash between Deputy

.sheriffs and striking coal miners near

Fatten, In "Walker county, Leon M. A'iler. genera lmanager of the Corona O 'jtl company Is dead, and two deputy sheriffs named Coker and Sullivan are so badly wounded they are not expected to live. Adler was a veteran of the world war and the son of Morris Adler of P'rraingham, millionaire mine owner. The shooting occurred when Adler, leading party of about 25 mine guards to intercept an armed band of strikers, were ambushed. Without warning the Adler party was fired on. and the young man fell instantly killed by a bullet through the head. Tiring continued for several minutes before the, strikers retreated from their amt;;.cade. Gov. Kllby has ordered six guard companies, numbering about 650 officers and men to the mine fields or V."alcer and Jefferson counties for strike duty. Feeling in "Walker county ts especially tense and Sheriff Guthrie r.e"pnrts nightly raids by armed bands of strikelng miners in which there is much Indiscriminate shooting In an effort to terrorize non-anlon worker. J. R. Kerinamer, state president of

-the T'n'.ted Mine "Workers of America.;

called the shooting of young1 Adler "an unfortunate affair.- He said: "I wish to raise my voice against violence and disorder In any form. I hope a full Investigation will bs made. Iet there be no whitewashing or false accusations." Reports continue to come in of dynamltlngs at the mining camps. Camps et Empire. Cordova and Carbon Hill have suffered from dynamiting! . Dynamite was thrown In to a boarding house at Suiligent Springs Coal Co., st Crodova, six sticks exploding. Feeling is particularly tens. In this district and further disorders are. expected.

That "bad blood'' existed between J. D. Cooke, murdered colored editor of the National Defender and Son and his brother-in-law slayer Christopher C Carter. colored Gary mail carrier, preafher. lawyer and financial genius, is the term that is used by friends of the two men In Gary's south side colored belt. This bad blood existed between the, two negroes since the marriage of Carter to a sister of the murdered editor's wife. 0;hT causes are blar.' for the hooting, but tho chain or circumstances that lead to the existence of bad blood, was rosily the family of Mrs. Cooke opjnising the marriage of her sister to Carter. It has been learned that Cooke has always been opposed to Carter and consequently the slayer has always resented the grudge. It was last Monday night while Cooke and Carter's wife were seated talking at a table In the BagsbeyCarter drug store at ISth and Washington street that Carter entered the rla.ee

and demanded to know what they were talking about. Cooke answered him saying that he had heard that Carter had made some remarks about his "Cook's) wife, but Carter denied it with a curse. When Cooke got up from his chair and made nn effort to strike him. Carter was prepared and nred into Cooke's body with a revolver. The Defender and Son. Gary colored publication of which Cooke was editor has the following to say with reference to the murder. Carter was ordained a minister at Olivet church in Chicago and preached in Michigan, once being arrested and serving a term In the Michigan penitentiary for the misuse of church funds. He Is charged with having been married five times to girls of good families. H-j came near being the victim of a Missouri mob following his attack upon a young girl, and only the quick action of the authorities prevented bodily harm. At the time of his hurried exit from Chicago he was being looked for by police on two warrants, charging him with frauds In connection with a tailoring business he had been engaged in. SCA27DAX. STOPPED Several months ago Carter met his wife and Mrs. Cooke at the Pennsylvania station en route to Chicago. Ha claimed he had Intercepted a letter wherein the two were to meet a couple of white business men of this city in Chicago. Ho Insisted that his wife return home, but an argument ensued and Mrs. Cooke, it

Is claimed, poked a gun in Carter's face after ha had called her vile names hefore a number of white people. Carter sought the arrest of Mrs. Cooke. This scandal was kept out of the Daily Tribune and the Daily IYst of this city only after a committee of citizens, headed by a social walfare worker, waited on the editors of the two papers. About a month ago Cooke attacked In the columns of his paper Carter's insurance scheme. On the sme day the Tribune came cut with a signed statement, in the form of an advertisement by Mrs.

Senator Harding declared that the paramount issue of this campaign is whether the American people are going to be governed by the constitution or by the covenant, of the league of nations brought back from Paris by President Wilson. "The constitution or the covenant that, my countrymen Is the paramount issue," said Senator Harding. "The two are Irreconcilable. "We cannot be governed from both Geneva and Washington. We cannot follow our present chief magistrate without forsaking the father of our country.

"Under the constitution we have prospered and developed. Under the constitution we have kept alive the watchfires of freedom and maintained the open door to liberty.
