In the course of his jubilee sermon
at Baltimore Cardinal Gibbons deliv-
cred an address in the cathedral de-
nouncing the initiative and referen-
dunn, the recall and the election of
senators by the people An Associa-
ted Press report of the address fol-
lows
Defining the duties Of his brethren
of the laity he exhorted them to be
faithful in the practice of their re-
liglons and urged them as citizens
of the United States to take a patri-
otto part in every measure that con-
tributes to the progress of the com
monwealth.
"No man should be a drone in the
social beehive" said his eminence.
mo citizen should be an Indifferent
spectator of the political, moral and
economic questions that are agitating
around him.
AT the present moment there are
three political problems which are
engaging the serious attention of our
public men.
at is proposed that United States
Senators should be elected by pOpu-
lar vote instead of being chosen by
the Legislature, as is prescribed by
the constitution
at is prosed that the acts of our
legislature, before they have the force
OF law, should be submitted to the
suffrage of the people who would
have the right to vote.
ut is proposed that the acts of our

alton of his term of office,
mo one questions the ability, the
sincerity and patriotism Of the advo-
Gates of these changes in our organic
laws. But I hope I may not be pre-
sumptuous in saying that in my opin-
ion, the wisdom of the proposed
amendments must be seriously ques-
toned.
THE election of Senators by the
votes of the people involves the de-
struction of a strong bulwark against
dangerous popular encroachments,
The reason given for the contem-
plated change is that many of our
state legislatures are charged with
being venal, and that it is easier to
corrupt the legislature than the whole
people In reply I would say; If you

hundreds of thousands of people who

LONDON'S LIQUOR RECORD.
Unenviable Exception to Decrease in
Drunkenness Throughout Country.

Special Cablegram to The Star
LONDON. September 2-The years rec
ord of drunkenness in London makes an
unenviable exception to the general de-
crease which has occurred all over the
country.
The statistics now issued OF the num-
Der Of convictions for offenses against
the licensing law during 1910 show that,
although the total decrease in England
and Wales of 1926 convictions. or 444
per cent, is spread all over the country,
the metropolitan police district is a
notable exception with a total of 4S,447
convictions, which represents an increase
of 7.91 per cent.
THE downward movement in convic-
tons for drunkenness, which has been
in progress for some time says the
report Continued during last year. but
at a slower pace than was observed in
1903 There were 161 992 convictions. as
compared with 169,51S in the previous
year"
The convictions of females for drunk
enness did not decrease at the rapid
rate of 1909. The decrease in the actual
number of convictions in 1910 was 2, 451
as against 4,264 in 1909.
AS regards the convictions for drunk
enness in proportion to the population.
the report states that in the year 1910
there were forty-nine persons convicted
for every 10000 persons in England and
Wales.

Ii is TO meet such an emergency that the
use in this country of silos for grain, or
national granaries, has been advocated.
The cost of creating and maintaining
silos might be considerable, though We
suppose the cost of a single dreadnought
