RELIEF TO SETTLERS

The commissioner of the general lane
Office has, through ruling, made impor
tant concessions to settlers who had en-
tries on timber lands burned last summer
The leniency is in greater degree thar
was expected by the settlers. Congress
took hand in offering it together with
the cooperation of the land commissioner.
The action restores to all burned out set
tiers the right to re-file on homestead
land, thereby saving their interest. A
limit is placed on this concession by ex-
tending it only to those settlers who filed
after June l, 1910, and who did not
establish residence under the law until
February 3, 1911, as well as to all settlers
whose timber was burned by the fire.
The ruling also applies to all settlers
whose entries have not been contested on
the grounds of fraud or who have relin-
quished their holdings for valuable con
sideration. All others may apply for a
second homestead under the act. Il is
expected that 1000 settlers win be affected
by the ruling.
The second ruling of the commissioner
grants To settlers whose t;roa Co., astal,
fishing residence expired on or before
December ], 1910, an extension of six
months in which to get onto the lands
This ruling is intended to apply to settlers
partially burned out during the fire, and
gives them the advantages of remaining
away from their claims an additional half
year. The period Of Communication, how
ever, begins with the actual establishment
of residence.
All settlers who filed previous to the
date Of June l. 1910, are granted until
May Is, 1911, in which to establish a
This ruling also provides in cases where
payments are due the government at the
time of entry these payments may be
until residence is actually estab-
lished.

Red Cross Says United States VIII
Have Six During the
Year 1911
NEVER KNOWN TO FAIL
EARTHQUAKES, FIRES, FLOODS,
EXPLOSIONS, HURRICANES, WARS
AND MAssACREs

Six big disasters will occur in
the United States in 1911. This
is not the prediction of an astrol-
oyer but of the American Red
Cross, the organization which
conducts a larger work of relief
among the people stricken by
great calamities than any 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. 1t does not know where or
when they will occur, or whether
they will be caused by storm, or
fire, or food, or earthquake, or
explosion. But it is sure that
they will happen, just as one may
be sure that fifteen persons of
every thousand now living will
die i'll the next twelve months.
Worldwide service to human
ity was shown in reports present
ed at the last national meeting
of the American Red Cross in
Washington. This organization
is recognized by the federal gov
ernment as the official channel
Tor the conduct of relief work
wherever in the United States
people suffer from the results of
great calamities. But the Red
Cross does not confine itself to
relief operations in this country.
Its field is the world.
Experience proves not only that
an average of five or six disast-
ers, severe enough to call for Red
Cross help, may be expected to
occur every year in the United
one hurricane, one mine
fire, two mine explosions and for
est fires in Idaho, Montana, Ore
gon, Washington and Minnesota;
in foreign countries, relief of
starving captured soldiers in Mic
aragua, floods in Mexico, France,
SerVia and japan. the Armenia
massacres and the earthquake in
Costa Rica.
In the disasters above men,
toned which occurred in the
United States SOC lives were lost.
while approximately $500 per-
sons required immediate assist
ance. About 5000 persons lost
their homes by fire or hurricane.
The money expended by the Red
Cross in these relief operations in
the United States was $196,O00,
and in foreign countries $66, 800,
a total OF 1862 500. Otherrelief
funds expended in this countryin
conjunction with those of the Red
Cross, and according to it's plans
and methods, amounted to
$218,000, making the grand
total relief expenditures for the
year under Red Cross leadership
the enormous sum of $4S0.00O.
