Responsibility For Many Killings
By THOMAS TAPER.
Drawn bv HAL COFFMAN

Two recent pistol shootings in
New York have become notorious
because Of the matters involved,
but little or no attention was paid
to the fact that it is as easy to get
a revolver as it is to buy a sewing
machine.
1t would be thoroughly whole
some to imprison the dealer who
sold the revolver that was aimed at
Mr.. Roosevelt. New York city has
considered the question with some
degree of earnestness, but the bag
ging of Rosenthal was easy.
1t would be thoroughly whole
some step to class firearms with
dynamite, cocaine, opium, cyanide
Of potassium, and all the rest of the
quick ways to death.
The daily record Of murders
throughout the United States in
single week is appalling, and most
Of them are primarily made posi-

BILE not because the murderer has a
gun, but because it is easy to get
one.
If every state i'll the Union would
pass a uniform law on the sale and
possession Of all varieties of fire
arms, we would conserve a consid-
cradle number of citizens.
Let Him Get a License.
If a man is afraid to go to sleep
at night without having a revolver
handy, let him be permitted to take
out a license to supply all his doors
and windows with a twelve-inch
gun, to be worked from the bed.
This would, at least, insure him
against killing his wife if she
CHANGED to get up without giving
him due notice. And If, by mistake,
he should turn on the battery to
the menace Of his neighbors, they
might, by license, do the same
thing

The Turk
By JAMES j. MONTAGUE.

VIZ HO is it that cries to the smoke cobwebbed
w That wars horrid horrors must cease?
Who is it that yells through dark DardanelIes
That he is a person of peace?
Who rises to beg that the Court OF Hague
Put end this awful rough work?
Why. the always unbearabe
Formerly terrible,
Recently scareable
Turk
w HO was it that spread his Of dreao
w over neghboring terror filled lands?
Who it the while a hideous smile
As he stretched forth his blood dripping hands?
Who, all unconcerned, slew pillaged and burned
Putting all who opposed to dirk?
The seldom courageous
The often rampageous
The always outrageous
Old Turk.
ND who now he knows that the wrath of his foes
n At last into fury has fiared.
Pleads. with fear shaken breath upon TIN
That the life that is in him be spated7
Who begs to retain the blood -buded domain
Where he like a beast to lurk?
That prince OF bravado.
That black desperodo
That CORY tornado

TINE recent instance OF young
woman shooting her mother in
sleeping car because she
thought her a robber is full of mis-
fortune for the young lady, and full
Of suggestion for the rest of the
population.
Whenever there is revolver
handy, the chances are. many to
one that some one will get hurt, if
not killed. And some one else,
without evil intent, will become the
murderer of a fellow being
Why Do We Need Them?
The sale of liquor as a national
menace has so impressed the Amer
lean people that many Of them are
neither Republicans nor Democrats
they are not even Bull Moosers.
They are Prohibitionists
Fairly satisfactory laws govern
the sale of poison. But it seems
absolutely easy for men, women
ana children in most communities
to buy firearms. and to main or
kill through ignorance, misunder-
standing or intent
Why do we need firearms
We do not need them-at all
events in domestic life
The army and the police make
bad enough use of them at times.
The hunter often shoots his friends
head off, thinking he is baggng a
moose. 1t is all strange common
tary on the Sunday preachment on
Thou shalt not kill"

congress has discussed this
question of the amateur and the
gun But if it has the reverbera-
ton of its oratory on the subject

recording Of accidental shooting.

All historians have deplored the
shooting of Lincoln Garfield and
Mckinley but none of them has
commented even briefly on the
state OF civilization that makes it
easy for the criminal and the in
