KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. o.
Dust explosion in tine main line of
the Cress Mountain system near
Briceville early today entombed
large number Of workers. The mine
was usually manned by two hundred
miners, but whebher all had entered
the shaft prior TO the disaster is un.

AS the news of the explosion spread
about the Briceville district throngs
of women and children rushed to the
mine entrance and clamored to be al.
lowed to make their way inside to aid
the work of rescue. At II o'clock it
had been definitely settled that 100
men were entombed in the mine this
morning. The rescue work was
checked before II. Great pillows of
flame began to belch from the open

back by the flames. Hope for the i'm

down to depsair.
President Stephenson, however, de-

OF all the men who entered the
mine this morning, thre escaped.
They were in one Of the lateral shafts
at the time of the explosion. Warned
by the blasts rumble they escaped

BAD GOVERNMENT in BALTIMORE.

II HE Greater Baltimore Committee OF Business
i men realizes the intimate connection be-
tween the progress Of city and good municipal
government. Perhaps the recent scandals in Bal
timore at the primary elections have aroused
the business men 70 believe that Baltimore will,be
given black eye if the political conditions are
bad that men can commit frauds at elections
and go unpunished.
At any rate a resolution was adopted by the
committee calling for an improvement in the
municipal government.
The resolution recites thst experts in municipal
government are agreed that city as business
corporation should be conducted on businesske
principles that party politics should have place
in its affairs, and that the present system of gov
ernment in Baltimore, if honestly admins
tered, is antiquated ruinously expensive and cum
bersome.
The resolution continues that conditions in Bal
timore have become intolerable, as the entire
municipal business is treated as political problem
instead of a business problem, with both political
parties striving for The mastery. The resolution
adds that the fault is not due to political parties
but to wrong system. The committee makes no
comment the misdeeds Of either party, but says
that il is sufficient 10 say that the administration
the affairs of city so large and important
as Baltimore should furnish no opportunity for
such political issues as are now running us"
A special charter commission, after careful
otuuy, mas SuDmlttCu Il iOTm OF CHdItCI WHICH tnU
committee thinks will go FAR towards making inn
possible the present wrongs from which Baltimore
suffers
In almost every city the subject OF municipal
government is to the front In Wilmington we
have a charter commission at work, composed OF
men capable of formulating new charter that
would place Wilmington to the front in the hne OF
municipal progress The commissioners have an op-
portunity to present Wilmington as an example OF
good government so far as the machinery OF gov
ernment is concerned. And iftheyiook at thematter
they would look any matter OF plain business,
we should, doubt, have charter that would
be entirely satisfactory to the of the voters.
This question is one that should concern every
resident OF the city, rent payers well actual
tax payers. Too often the who pays rent for
his home thinks il is no concern Of his what the
taxes are how the money is spent or whether the
government is good, Indifferent OF bad. In that
he deceives himself. He is the ultimate tax payer
and he bears the burden of bad government just
as much as the man who owns his home and pays
taxes directly.

Editorial Opinion
TRAP SHOOTING.

Worcester Gazette.
Trap shooting is an outdoor sport
II takes people to the open air and
II tends to lead them to take up that
other line of perhaps more strenuous
and exhilarating sport, field shooting
But one need not go the whole length
and tramp through the brush TO get
an abundance of benefits to body and
soul. Trap shooting itself offers
enough Of these commodities. For
our part, we know OF no reader and
less expensive form of recreation
whereby a man can dissociate himself
from and utterly forget for a few
hours the routine and ever haunting
cares of business. Trap shooting, II a
fellow sets out 10 attain any prof.
cheney, he soon finds calls for the alert
use Of every faculty and sense he
possesse. Il is a sport that demands
lowed, and whether a man takes it up
conscious of this fact or not. he soon
realizes that his mind has drifted far
from other things. He finds, In fact,
that he has reached that consumma-
tiOn of things which Hamlet so de-
voutely wished he might attain, when
he wanted TO blot out all saws Of
books and maxims OF business.
In short, trap shooting is an eX-
acting mistress. When a fellow thinks
he has II down fine, he is bound 70
find suddenly that there are quite a
number Of things that he has moi
mastered. And It is this very impos-
sibility of mastery, this ever-preseuj
element Of luck and chance that makes
Il diverting, not to say bewitching

LABOR AND PROFITS.

@ ONE bakers in western town recently decided
~ to form a cooperative bakery and engage in
business for themselves. They thought that they
could command the trade of union men and that
the business would be profitable
The experiment would also teach them that
conducting business is not so easy as many
union men seem to think; that the profits do not
roll into the Golfers Of the employers who grasp
the lions share and dole out pittance to the en-
ployes.
1t also seems that some of the Kansas City
bakeries have decided to give their employees
share OF the earnings other than that paid in wages
But along comes the Bakers Union which says that
any man who so shares loses his membership in
the union.
II the unions should follow this plan OF deal
ing with those who share in the profits, il might
halt the increasing tendency among employers 10
let their employees have a direct share of the pro-
fits scheme which many have thought was a step
in the right direction towards solving the vexa-
tious problem of the relations between capital and
labor

THE WAR BURDEN.

C~ONSIDERATION of the heavy expense of
~ war is forced upon the people by the present.
conflict between Italy and Turkey, the latter a
bankrupt nation attempting TO fight another that is
heavily burdened with debt
Perhaps it was a realization that the war which
Italy is now waging against Turkey would mean
still greater increase in the burdens Of the tax
payers of Italy that caused the anti-war demon
stratons in various parts of the kingdom.
There is no of knowing whether these
demonstrations are being continued, for the cen
sorship of that from Italy is very strict
But certain it is that the anti-war feeling is much
alive in some of the European countries in fact in
most of them
Recently in one of our illustrated weeklies a
picture was published OF the vast throngs that
gathered in Berlin on the occasion of an anti-war
meeting which was attended by more than 100000
people with orators addressing them from nine
different platforms.
The assembling Of so vast concourse of peo-
pie in one of our American cities for any purpose
would be considered as evidence that the people
were interested in the matter under discussion
Congressman William B. Mckinley, of Illinois,
put the question of the expense of war in a nut
shell when he declared that two-thrds of the an
nual income of the United States is being spent
on and its result. A battIeship for example,
costs $l5000000. 1t costs annually ST 100000 to
maintain one of the present day warships, and such
ship becomes obsolete in ten years
At the time OF the Spanish the expense of
our navy amounted to S24000O00 annually Now
the figures are Si00000,000 Mr. Mckinley says
that as an apt illustration consider a man with
an income of say $500 year who should spend
$1,000 OF this sum in placing guards around his
house. This is what the United States is doing
The government is drawing $4,000 600 as a total
income in taxes from the people, two-thirds of
which goes for preparations for war, making per
capita expenditure of something like Sc for each
individual. No wonder that Mr.. Taft is so ear
nest IN his desire to forward international arbi-
tration although it has received set back since
the outbreak of hostilites between Italy and Tur-
key.

WORK.
~ HE builders of the DUPONT road are already

THE builders of the DUPONT road are already
4 having trouble to secure labor
Chief Engineer Williams has issued state
ment declaring that under instructions from Mr.
DUPONT he is to try, for several weeks, to secure
laborers locally and Delawareans are TO be given
preference in employment. Notices have been
posted in conspicuous places throughout southern
Delaware saying that men wanted, but ac-
cordng to Mr. Williams very few have responded.
We have no idea that Mr. Williams will be able
to secure iaborers in Sussex county or in Kent
county TO build the road. Not that there not
plenty Of unemployed negroes and white men who
could do the work IL they wanted TO, but why
should they work when they can live by Ioafng,
many of themp
II Mr. Williams cannot get laborers in Sussex
he might try Wilmington, but if some men in
Wilmington who always complaining how hard
it is TO get work and how oppressed the masses"
are because they cannot get work should see Mr.
Williams coming after them with authority to
compel them TO work the prospects of having 10
labor other than with their jaws would paralyze
them the spot
There are others, many of them, however, who
really want work and we suggest that laborers be
secured in this city, if possible, before going else
where.
