Appears in "The Ravia Herald" 14 November 1908, Ravia, Johnston County,
Oklahoma
Ex-Senator E. W. Carmack was killed in a street duel at Nashville, Tennessee, Monday
evening by Robin Cooper, a young lawyer of that city. The trouble was over personal
politics. Since his defeat for the Democratic nomination for governor of Tennessee. Mr.
Carmack has been editor of the Nashville Tennessean, and it was some of his warm political
editorials that brought on the trouble. Young Cooper was not justifiable in killing
Senator Carmack, nor did the editorial in question call for blood. Human life is held
entirely too cheap.
