GOOD WORK.

The passage of the free sugar bill and the income tax bill by the house of representatives are great steps in advance and The Commoner is glad to credit Speak CT Clark with exerting his influ- ence on this side of the people in these matters. MT. Underwood did hot desire it either, but was forced by his colleagues on the committee to put the measure through. The house has been slow to take up the trust question and the democratic caucus erred in not favoring a special commit tee to investigate the Money trust, but it has made a ten stroke removing fifty millions of tax
 from Consumption to incomes.

Senator LaFollette carried every
district in Wisconsin last week and
will have a solid delegation of &c
from this state to the national
convention. Everybody except the
blindest partisans knew that such
would be the result and it is right
that it should be so. The really
surprising thing is that with the
state pride that is naturally felt fol-
the senator in his efforts to obtain the
presidential nomination, Taft's vote
should have been as heavy as it was,
there being very little organized work
done for him. Wilson won over
Clark for the democratic nomination
and it is conceded that he will have
s23 oct of the 26 delegates elected.

so FOOT GUN TO GUARD CANAL.

When Uncle Sam gets through
digging his big ditch down in
Panama, he will cast about for means
of defending his rights to it.
One Of the first things he will do
will be to mount the biggest gun in
the world, so feet long, having 16
inch bore and shooting q projectile
weighing 2, $40 pounds distance of 10
miles straight through II inches OF
steel armor plate
The government has the gun. It is
housed at Sandy Hook and will be
available when the time comes It is
estimated that it will cost $3.50 900 to
properly mount it in the right kind
of fertilization. When that is done it
will be one Of the ''big sticks" which
will help to keep things quiet in the
ditch region. Any foreign ship
getting in the way Of one of its
projectiles would be greatly Jared,
because bullet weighing ton and
a quarter, driven along by the ex
plosion of 600 pounds of smokeless
powder, is said to have great force.
The gun was designed by the Endi
colt board in 1885, not for the canal,
of course. It could not be mounted
on any battleship, and so has been
waiting for the armament program to
catch up with it.

Beach, CAL, one day last week. He
had scared out over the ocean and on
his return at terrific speed he seemed
to have misjudged the distance in
dipping to the surface and his craft
dashed with deadly farce into the
shallow waters on the beach. The
aviator's back was broken and he died
shortly after the accident. He was a
daring operator and less than year
ago had never touched an aeroplane.
During the past year, however, he
broke aerial records and made more
than $50 900. Rogers is the thirteenth
aviator that has been killed SO far
this year and the 120th since aviation
began.

MAKING THE POOR POORER.

Nothing has happened in England
since the days Of the Great Plague,
centuries ago, that has caused SO
much suffering as the strike or the
coal miners, which has deranged
British industries generally, and de-
prived millions not engaged in min
ing Of the means Of support. 1t is a
pitiful story that comes from the
British Isles Of a vast number of
families in all pursuits that have
been thrown out Of employment and
after pawning their furniture and
other personal property. are in
absolute want. Small tradesmen also
are among the victims. Their
customers are penniless, and though
ready and eager to work, can do moth
ing in the face of a lack of coal, an
article Of necessity in making the
wheels 60 round.
In all countries majority of the
people have but a small margin be-
yond their wages. A few IDLE weeks
exhaust savings and meagre means of
credit. All England has felt the
pinch of this crisis, and the national
feeling has been one of grave alarm.
To tie up coal in such an industrial
country soon holds up bread. The
strike was ordered in winter, time
when fuel is necessary to life. A
period Of torture, physical and
mental, has racked England during
the last six weeks.
It is said that the strike is nearing
the end. It musU be observed, as is
customary in such ill-judged con-
troversies, that the workmen will not
get all they asked, nor employers re-
tain all they claimed. What is there
to prevent such compromises without
a striker Nothing, manifestly, but
a reckless obstinacy, and an angry
indifference to the general welfare
Some thousands of strikers and
operators have it in their power to
impoverish millions of their fellow
citizens who have done them no
wrong. but on the contrary, are the
ones to whom they sell their products
