RED CROSS RELIEF OPERATIONS

SIX big disasters sill occur in the
United states IN 1911 This Is not the
prediction OF am asttoogGt but OF the
American Red Choss, tho organization
which conducts larger work Of relief
among people stricken by great cahim-
tiles than amy other agency In the
world. Experience has led the Red
cross to expect an average OF five or
six serious disasters IN this country
every year II does not know whore on
when they will occur, or whether they
will be caused by storm. or fire. or food,
or earthquake, or explosion. But II Is
sure that 10 persons of every thousand
now living will die in tho next Il
months.
World wide service to humanity WAS

New York. Dee l5,--Only two out Of
six Democratic sovernors-clcct We're
able to be present at u banquet given
in their honor by the National Demo-
cratic club tonight. John a. Dix of
New York and Eugene N Foss Of
Massachusetts were there. but regrets

and Frederick Il. Plasted of Maine

GOV. HARMON'S VIEWS.
1--WE must justify the confidence so
signnlly expressed, or the victory at
the polls Will not be the cause for
rejoicing; and we shall not do this II
the conduct of public business falls be-
low the standard of the campaign.
Mere personal desires. selfish purposes
and opportunities for special favor
must be swept aside and all public
authority be employed for the general
good"
Mr.. Dix confined himself to an ac-
count OF New York state developments
and resources.
FOSS' IDEA.
Eugene n. Foss, govarnor-clect of
Massachusetts, outlined what he con-
sidered u proper course for the Demo-
cratic party 10 pursue in view OF the
power 1t had acquired III all parts of
The country. He said:
II am Il protectiUnist. The protec-
ton which believe in carries with it
II large measure of reciprocity. lii
tact believe that protection without
greciprocityiis ndefensible. My advocacy
z of this kind of protection rules me out
of the Republican party in Massachu-
sets. can only speak for Massachu-
sets. but in that state at least the issue
ON which the last campaign was so
signally fought and won, Is this: TO
bring the government back to the
people. The only way to do it is the
business way. by eliminating all GO
/ betweens, the boss and his agents. the
caucus, the nominating convention and
the lobby.
Before we can get an honest re-
vision of the tariff. the senate itself
must be revised. Our senators must
be more responsive to the will of the
people And IN order to effect an
honest revision of the tariff or any leg
! islation in the interest of the people.
our senators must be virtually elected
by popular vote. The direct primary
and the election OF United States sem;
ators by the people Will eliminate the
lobby and It's train of corruption.
1T should be no part of c'''- work to
tear down, but rather to build up. 1t
won't be sufficient for us to repeal the
Payne-Aldrich bill without putting
some constructive measure in its place
