". •«. i: Magnificent Political Victory Won by Wage Earners of Great Britain. What the Leading London Daily Papers Said Before the Returns Were In. The magnitude of the victory gained by the laboring people of Great Grit ain in the general elections which closed this week were but dimly re flected in the cable dispatches and it is only now, when the daily and weekly newspapers are beginning to arrive that the American workingmen are able to obtain details of a political up heaval which almost amounts to a rev olution. While the latest dispatches state that the Labor party has oaptured 50 seats in the new Parliament, against seven held heretofore, there are many dis trict strongholds of Liberals and Tor ies, in which the labor candidates were that it virtually amounts to a moral victory, and in another year or two those districts can safely be counted In the working class column. But overshadowing the balloting that swept the fossilized policies of the old conservative party out of existence is an awakened conscience that is causing even the triumphant Liberals of the re actionary wing great uneasiness. While it may be too clearly to make pre dictions, yet the fact is looming up on the horizon of British politics that the present Liberal government will be driven forward and be compelled to embark upon an era of. progressive legislation or there will be a break be tween the radical and conservative wings of the party in control. That the ruling class of Great Brit ain, whether it be designated Conser vative or Liberals, is thoroughly al armed .is shown In the comments of the London capitalistic dailies, follow ing closely upon the statement of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, the only Tory leader who has some political life left when he declared that England had her choice between tariff reform and social I ism and is choosing socialism. The London Times, the leading organ of class privilege in Europe, says: "While they (the politicians) have been disputing about their issues, an other issue has been shaping itself after the fashion of such things, quiet ly, .silently, without observation. That issue is whether the working classes who form the bulk of the electorate are to dictate the policy they desire, or to go on contending themselves with choosing between policies offered them by the traditional parties in the state. They have decided for the first al ternative. They have done what some observers expected them to do long ago, but what they have so long ab stained from doing that these observers had forgotten to go on expecting it The polls fully bear out what we said about the Labor vote. Where the workingmen have run candidates of their own they have returned them by immense majorities." The Daily Mai} remarks: "The enormous Labor polls are, in deed, the great feature of the election, and even where Labor has not won it has voted in a manner that is beginning to cause nervousness to its Liberal ally It is significant too that of its nominal ly Liberal candidates, many are lndis tlngulshed from communists or extreme Socialists." Says the London Standard: "If Sir Henry Campbell-Bannermann counts upon the members of the Inde pendent Labor party to swell his ma jority at Westminster, he is nursing a delsion. They will give him their votes so long as his policy suits their de mands but they feel no scruple when he fails to satisfy them, about leaving him in the lurch of a critical division, He will require all the liberal adher ents he can muster if he is to hold his ground in the lobbies against party, compact and unattached who will neither offer nor accept tervus from officialism/' And this from the Daily Telegraph "We should" be the last to deny the rights of the industrial classes to com bine to secure what advantages they could from the exercise of the fran chise. At the Bame time It would be futile to ignore the fact that their lead ers—and one of the most conspicuous of them in in the cabinet—have de clared tjheir undying hostility to cap italists and capital has realized his own power and has communicated to the members of that much-abused class— upon which nine out of ever ten artis ans depend for their existence—who are standing as radical candidates and who are supplying the sinews of war for their less affluent friends?" And the Pall Mall Gazette adds: "A new power has arisen in the land. That is L^bor. Today we are face to face with a new fact, big with possibil ities for the future. Hitherto the Brit ish worklngman has had the vote, but has hardly cared to use it he has in the main, treated the franchise much as a Polar bear would treat a 'fur-lined overcoat—he has had no use for it. This time it Is otherwise— the workingman (when he has used It at all) or one or been moved to use it for his own pur poses, not as heretofore, for the benefit foregoing, will suffice for the present. Official Liberalism will find to Its cost that politics is -not all a Gospel Tea of a Pleasant Sunday Afternoon when it has to deal with a powerful Labor party In the House of Commons. And It is already an assured fact that the giant Is awake, refreshed from his long slumber, and rejoicing to run his course." Other London dailies that comment on similar tones might be quoted Hut the foregoing will suffice for the pres ent. In a .future number we will print some additional details regarding the awakening of the British working peo pie, contenting ourselves In concluding this general review by correcting the deliberate misstatement sent out by the Assoclatfd Press, doubtless for the ex press purpose^ of 'discrediting-our Eng llsh fellow workers, to the effeot that, Andrew Carnegie had financed the -La- A*? •r'^4 sv ''-"l Ill MM BATTLE Inquiry made by the Chicago Tribune of J.

They also deny the right of the examiner to question their motives. The letter then proceeds to take up the criticisms contained in the report and explains them in details.

A number of years ago it was "Fritz" Emmett who sang his tender love bal lads to his little fratileins or it was Scanlan who made loVe to his pretty colleetns by sweet w'oVds set to music.

Of all the society or romantic plays ever written, or the cleverly conceived melodrama with its thickening plot, not even the opera or so-called musical comedy can offer so substantial and satisfying an entertainment. For the present season the manage ment of Joseph Murphy's beautiful "Kerry Gow" offer Ireland's sweet singer Allen Doone in Mr. Murphy's former role. Mr. Doone while a new comer to the legitimate drama, was formerly prominent in vaudeville, where he demonstrated his vocal qualities and bis cleverness to excell in more important roles. While the season is still young Mr. Doone has sang and acted his way well to the front and bids fair to be an admirable disciple of an Emmett or a Scanlan. Pos sessed ,of a sweet, melodious tenor voice of great range, his singing of the pret ty little Irish love ballads "Sweet Nora Drew/' 'The "Cooing of the Doves," "The Song of the Forge," etc., writ ten especially for "Kerry Gow" offer a rare musical treat in addition to the rich study of character type that this pretty .play affords.

Never in its his tory has the show been as good as it is this season. There is a whirlwind of laughter from the beginnig of the show to the finale.

Sale TO CHECK PEOPLE Enormous Crowd Packs Chi cago City Hall When Coun cil In Special Meeting Takes Action On Three Important Propositions. Saloon License Question Lead ing Cause of Excitement. Ordinance Fixing Price of Gas At 85 Cents Passed Over Mayor Dunne's Veto. CHICAGO, Feb. 14.—The city ooun cil, at a special meeting held today, took action on three important propo sitions. An ordinance fixing the price of gas at 85 cents, instead of 90 cents, and |1 as hereofore, was passed over the veto of Mayor Dunne by a vote of 57 to 10. An ordinance placing the saloon li cense at $600 instead of 500, the pres ent figure, was adopted by a vote of 35 to 32, but Mayor Dunne ruled that he measure had failed of passago because it did not receive 36 votes, the constitutional majority. The $1,000 license ordinance was then introduced but it was referred to the license com mittee to be presented at the next meeting of the council on Feb. 26. It was also ordered that the ques tion of voting $75,000,000 for the pur chase of the street railways for th» city be submitted to the voters at tha next election. Enormous Crowds Assemble. The importance of the measures, and the excitement which has attended, their agitation, drew an enormous crowd to the city hall. Special guards of policemen were stationed around the building and all the doors were guarded,' but despite these, precautions the council chamber and its hallways were packed to sufocation. The po lice were compelled to remove several disorderly persons and one man wd® arrested. The questibn of saloon licenses which came last, was productive of the greatest amount of feeling. The nu merous crimes that have been perpe trated against women in this city of late has aroused agitation and it was believed by many that an increase in saloon licenses from $500 to $1,000 would wipe out some of the saloons which has been harboring criminals. The mayor based his veto of the gas ordinance on the declaration that he considered 85 cents too high a price, and 75 cents a proper figure., He alsd asked that the gas companies be com pelled to furnish free of cost to the city such gas as it needs for street light ing purposes.. The mayor also asked that time be taken by the council to investigate the operation of the gas companies. to determine whether they can not furnish gas at 75 cents and still make a reasonable profit. .As soon as the veto of the mayor had been read to the council, Alderman Young, chairman of the committee on gas. oil and electric, lights moved that the measure be passed notwithstanding the veto. The ordinance was at onoo called up. and passed. WARM CAPS FOR COLD EARS. A
