Dix, Wilson and Cleveland.

his own-at least, he doomed nobody. He
stood upon the proposition that Mr.. Muir

In New York now Mr.. Dix il urged to
oppose Tammany's man for senator, on
the ground that such a choice would not
only not meet the occasion. but would in
lure the democratic party both locally
and nationally. Bat. Tammany has a
strong claim on Mr.. Dix. 1t made him

Victory in Sight.
From the Chicago Tribune.

One by one the old enemies Of the tariff
commission plan are captivating and
promising to help along the legislation
they once hooted at. There are two men
to whom this spectacle deservedly gives
special satisfaction. They are President
Taft and Senator Beveridge. The sena-
tor was the first in Congress to formulate
the permanent tariff commission plan and
submit 1t to an unconvinced Senate. He
fought for 1t unweariedly. though success
seemed hopeless. President Taft was
quick to apprehend the desiraDllity-the
creaf need. rather-of such q commission
so that the tariff question could be dealt
with scientifically. He was able to gel
only a pale shadow Of what he wanted
hut he utilized that to. the best possible
nurnose and has never ceased lAborinl
With Congress to get just what he
wanted. And now he seems to be on The
eve Of getting 1t. The Wis inertiae OF Con
rress is yielding to the compelling power
of q great idea forcibly and persistentls
pressed home.

Deadly Weapons.

There are now pending before the DIS
trict committees Of the House ana oeha'e
several bills which propose either the
prohibition or the regulation OF the safe
~ firearms and other deadly weapons IN
the District of Columbia. They repre-
sent a strong public sentiment, which mas
been growing for number or years. III
favor OF cutting off the supply OF tue
instruments of crime and self-destruction
now so freely displayed in shop WINDOWS
and SO easily obtained. In large num-
Der of the homicides and many SUICIDES II
develops after the fact that the weapons
employed have been procured on the eve
of the event The present law supposed
" regulating the sale Of these articles Is
utterly useless. Any person with the
price-and a very small price sumccs-
can secure q pistol and ammunition with
out the least difficulty. and with only the
requirement of giving name ana ao-
dress, which need not be genuine.
The other day at a meeting held at one
of the local churches by the Woman
Interdenominational Missionary. Union
this subject was earnestly discussed and
an effort was pledged to press the matter
for congressional action. A former judge
Of the Police Court, speaking from his
extensive experience, declared 1t to Do
vital necessity for the statutes to be
amended so as to prevent the procuring
Of deadly weapons without first obtaining
a license to buy. A letter was read from
q member Of the House, author Of one of
the pending bills on this subject, declar-
ing that 1t was sad commentary on
Congress that the separate states should
take advanced position in legislation Of
this kind. while in Washington deadly
weapons are freely displayed In the shop
windows and are obtained without diff

Under a proper system Of regulation
any person actually in need Of q pistol
or other weapon Of defense could secure
one with no more delay or difficulty than
such a traffic requires in the interest Of
public safety. In the majority OF cases
Of imagined need there Is no real occa-
sion for the possession OF pistol. Prob
ably in more than half the instances the
necessity to go 10 court or to some adj
ministrative official for a permit to buy
a gun would cause reflection leading to a
dismissal Of the matter. 1t is not merely
the gun in the hands Of the malicious
that figures in tho reports OF crime and
accidents. The domestic pistol, procured
for honest purposes OF possible defense.
is frequently an agency Of needless
tragedy.
A lamentable feature OF the deadly
weapon traffic as 1t is today conducted,
without more than theoretical regula-
ton. is the open display in scores OF shop
windows in this city OF instruments Of
death that thrust their sinister sugges-
tons into the gaze Of countless passers
Of all ages and all classes. These I'M
wholesome factors are glaringly in evi-
dence and there is no telling what harm
they have wrought.
