ENGLAND HAS
WAR-LINCOLN
BY WILBUR S. FORREST.
London, Jun. 22. (By Mail) Eng
land's most Abraham Lincoln-esque
figure is in the limolight. From the
poorhouse to membership in the
King s ftlost Honorable Privy Council
is but part of the record of Will
Crooks, labor member of Parliament
and champion of the common people.
On the front doorstep of a modest
little cottage in Poplar, a London sub-
uro, on lew Year s day. a hirure m
shirt sleeves, colored shirt sleeves at
that, stood greeting proud townfolk
come to congratulate him. Messenger
boys brought telegrams in batches
and handed them direct to the only
Britisher of the "masses" admitted to
the King's Inner Council and priv
ileged to bear the title of Right Hon
orable. Inside the cottage, wihile Crooks
did the honors on the doorstep, was
Mrs. Crooks, a plump, wholesome
English housewofe, preparing the
New Year's dinner. There are no
frills or "swank" in the home of the
King's privy Councillor. That is why
Mrs. Crooks was in the kitchen while
Will, us 'he is known both in Poplar
and Parliament, was asuring his
friends on the doorstep that being a
Right Honorable made him feel no
different.
"There's one thinar I want to sav."
he told them all. "Because the King
has deemed fit to call me. his right
trusty and well beloved or whatever
the phrase is, I m not going to be
come a party man. I'll be right with
the workers. Tell them that the posi
tion gives me more power to work for
them and with them. I live with them 1
and hope to die with them."
When the voters elected Crooks ma
yor of Poplar in 1901 he made a re
cord that pleased the folk who had
elected him over a more aristocra
tic opponent. He wore the tradition
al robes of office because'Mrs. Crooks
told him to and not because he want
ed to. That is also why he's going
to wear the eluborate court dress that
is incumbent on privy councillor.
"If they say Will's got to wear
court togs, he's got to that's all there
is to it." Enid Mrs. Crooks. "Leave
it to me. I'll see that he gets them.
It was the same when he became
Mayor of Poplar. He wasn't going
to wear the robes, but I made Mm."
When the workers of Poplar re
viewed Crooks' record as Mayor in
1901, they immediately began to boost
him for Parliament in the W00lw'cn !
district of which Poplar is part. He i
went to Commons with an overwhelm- i
ing majority and he's still there. ,
Fighting the battles of the common :
folks, the appearance of this medium !
sized lubor M. P. with his flashing 1
blue eyes and iron grey beard on the
door of the House1 of Commons, has
long since, 1!)03, ceased to be a joke.
Much credit tor the strength or labor
in England today goes to the "ordin
ary pauper boy" who dared to call a
spade while surrounded by his upper
class colleagues.
The story of Garfield's hovhood
days on the towpath; Lincoln's rail
splitting mid grocery clerk life of Ben
franklins last penny for a bun in
Philadelphia, do not outdo the boy
hood vicissitudes of King George's
new Privy Councillor.
When he was onlv six an accident
to his father threw the support of
himself and his six brothers and sis
ters upon his mother.
I remember how she used to crv
because she didn't know where tlhe
next meal was coming from," said
Crooks today. WJien Will was nine,
a neighbor who kept a shop in Poplar
offered him twelve cents a week to de
liver milk and he took tho job. Then
his mother's health failed and because
the sixpence a week wouldn't keep the
family, they all went to the poorhouse
tor a time.
Will's next job was in a grocery
store at fifty cents a week. At eleven
he graduated to the job of blowing
bellows of a forge at a dollar and a
half a week which augumcnted by
earnings of his elder brothers, barely
held the family together. At 14 he
was apprenticed to a firm of coopers
where he earned about sixty cents a
week while he was learning the trade.
Crooks grew up a cooper. It was
in this trade that he became intensely
interested in labor problems, experi
enoing all the hardships of strikes and
lockouts and at times being forced to
tramp about London in search of
other work until the disputes were
settled. Despite it all he married and
reared a family of two sons and four
daughters. He first held office as n
member of the London County Coun
cil in 1892. He has held office ever
since.
Today Crool4$ is looking forward
with no very pleasant anticipation to
the time, soon, when he'll be forced
to appear in court dress of silk, knee
breeches with lace ruffles. But he'll
do it because Mother Crooks has
said:
"If Will must, he must and that's
all there is to it. Leave it to me. I'll
see that he gets them."

'One Spoonful Enough" Says Drug
in. C. D. Putman states that the sim
ple mixture of buckthorn bark,
glycerine, etc., known as Adler-i-ka,
is causing great surprise because just
one spoonful relieves constipation,
sour or gassy stomach almost im
mediately. It is so thorough a bowel
cleanser that it is used successfully
in appendicitis. Adler-i-kn acts on
both lower and upper bowel and the
instant efTect is astonishing. It lev
er gripes end is perfectly safe to use.
