on the housewives of this state to
exercise economy in the use of meats

Housewives of New York state who

SYRACUSE, Nov. 3. j. A. Kellogg,
Democratic State Chairman, claimed
the election Of Alfred f. Smith tonight
by 100000. He also claimed that the
Democrats would elect majorities to
the State Legislature.
"RockIand, Erie, Rensselaer,, Che
mung and Schoarie countless" said
Chairman Kellogg, will give Demo
cratic pluralities. Twenty of the TWEEN
ty-six candidates for the State Senate
in Greater New York will be elected.
Twenty-six is 81 majority. We will get
! the other six upstate. We will also
elect at least 76 of the $50 Assembly
men,"
No figures were given out by local
Democratic leaders on the probable re-
suit of to-morrow's vote.
Alfred Z. Smith issued a statement
. last night, in which he said that "a
: large percentage of dissatisfaction that
will bring about the overwhelming de-
feat Of Governor Whitman on Tuesday
has grown out of the tactics he has
, pursued in Office and carried through
his campaign"
He said the Governor lacked con-
structive ideas and the ability to deal
with the important problems with
which the next nistration will have
to meet to develop the states resources
to the utmost to meet the after-the-
war conditions.
Mr.. Smith said he accepted Governo or
| Whitman's challenge, made more than
a month ago, to give the names Of any
of the men the Governor appointed to
office whom Smith would dare to re-
move in the event of election.
"At the outset" continued Mr.. Smith
! II would dare to remove the Public
I Service Commissions. They have lost
public confidence. They have done
nothing"
Other appointees of the Governor
that Mr.. Smith declares he would re-
move, together with his reasons, are:
Edwin Duffy, highway commissioner
"a lawyer without knowledge of en-
! gineering problems, appointed because
i of friendship"
: Edward F. Lyon, Louis Wizard and
! Henry D. Sayer, of the State Industrial
+ Commission. Sayer because he "helps
promote the Governors political am
bitions;" Wizard and Lyon because
they represent "the reactionary influ-

Democrats Won't Face
Reconstruction Issue

81 have found the Democrats un-
construction. They evade the issue
of meeting it. Republicans are now,
as they were before, of one mind in
doing everything that is necessary and
possible to win the war, to win it
quickly, and to win it decisivcly, but
we realize that preparedness must
be the country's slogan now as it APP
breaches the era of peace, just as we
have been the country's motto in the
era that preceded the war.
ave know that the history of the
United States shows that it has been
the Republican party's duty to rescue
the country from every period Of de-
preston and panic in which it has
ever been. We know that for the last
sixty years the Republican party has
this Republic At the same time We
know that every country in Europe is
apprehensive of and is preparing for
a period of depression and possible
panic Immediately following the war
We know that the United States alone
of all countries is unprepared for
peace. Cognizant Of these facts, we
feel it imperative that the voters
should recognize, and | am sure they
do recognize. that only n Republican
Congress can and will prepare for
peace in the very fullest measure.

BY Richard Barry

Is not the real question to be decided
by the voters tomorrow one as to
whether the Republicans or the Demo.
Gratis shall shape the reconstruction
policies? The President in his appeal
to the country sought to make the
chief issue of the election that Of
unity with his own party for the sake
of the moral effect on Europe, while
the fact appears to be that whatever
moral effect the coming election may
have on either the Entente or the Cen
trail Powers the Congress to be elected
will find that larger part of it. If
not its entire life. will have to be
spent in solving the many problems of
reconstruction.
Will II. Hays. chairman of the Re-
publican National Committee, in his
reply to the President, naturally con-
fined himself largely to the issue the
President has raised, which was that
of the loyalty of Republicans. There
consider that the next Congress will
be a Republican Congress, and if he
did not believe that one of the chief
issues to be decided by voters Tuesday
was as to which they desired to
place in control of framing legislation
to solve these problems. asked him
if the overwhelming domestic impor-
tance of this election were not in
danger of being lost sight of when
there was so much speculative talk
about its effect abroad.
Sees Injustice in
Presidents Attacks
"The injustice of the Presidents
attack on loyal Republicans brought a
protest from all sections unprece-
dented in politics." emphatically re-
piled Mr.. Hays, "but, as you suggest
it cannot be too strongly stated that
the men elected to Congress by the
voters of America tomorrow prob
ably will be obliged to shape the in
dustrial, commercial and economic
destiny of America for years to come.
The next Congress will have a more
important place in our history than
any Congress that has assembled
since 1866. 1t will aid in forcing a
conclusive peace after an uncondi-
tional surrender, which it will request.
But no less certainly, and hardly less

New-York tribune., 1918-11-04

TO cngulf Europe, as we'll as the in
dustrial depression which has always
como upon this country after an exten-
sivc Democratic regime is to place the
control of Congress at once in the
hands of the Republicans. Reports
from all parts Of the United States
assure me that the voters arc alive to
this fact.
"The Republican party realizes that
the problem of peace will outmaster
the problems OF war; it renlizes that
the war is merely preliminary era
from which this nation is to be pro-
jccted into the Gercest economic strife
of all time. To be guided safely
through that requires not one-half the
brains in America, but all of the best
brains, and the only way to get them
all in Is to give the Republicans the
control Of Congress, for without it
more than half the voters of America
will have no effective voice in shaping
this supremely important legislation.
Sees Improvement
In Living Standards
"While Republicans do not take n
second place, but by their militant
leadership have assumed first place.
in striving for the winning of the war,
they we'll realize that war to-day does
not mean merely the winning Of 1t.
They we'll realize that the war must
mean an improvement In the standard
Of every life in America, that it must
mean better living conditions, finer
equalization of opportunity for all, and
the coordinatcd improvement in the
common lives of 100000 Other
wise it will have been fought in vain,
If it is going to mean commercial de-
pressions, business panics, labor up
heavals, widespread dissatisfaction
among the masses as results that fol-
low it, America will have lost the su-
preme effort she has made, no matter
what her diplomatic or military vic
tory may be.
you ask mo what these problems
Of reconstruction are. They are too
numerous to mention. No one can
foresee them all, but some idea may
be gained of how comprehensive they
are when l call your attention to the
often repeated statement that over
100000 laborers are now engaged in
this country in preparing war mate

Salvation Army Workers Face Death
, That Soldier Heroes May Have Re.
lief From ?arched Threats.

Huge barrels of lemonade served to
the American troops during the bat.
tie Of Ctateau-Thierry furnished only
one instance of the service being
rendered to the soldiers Of Uncle Sam
and his allies by the Salvation Army
workers now detailed with the fight,
ing units on the western front.
The troops had been hammering
at the Boche all day and all night
and many Of them had been put out
OF action during the terrific fighting,
but although suffering from wounds
made by shrapnel, rife bullets and
hand grenades. most of the injured
men were conscious and many of
them able to get about with the aid
of improyised erutches. The surgeons
were busy in the dressing stations
and the waiting soldiers wanted moth
ing so much as a good drink of
something cold and refreshing.
Then it was that the Salvation Ar
my work ers came along with several
barrels filed with sure enough lem
onade. Where they got the lemons
or the sugar nobody knows, but the
soldiers asked no questions as they
dove for the tin cups that were piled
alongside the barrels on a huge truck
The surgeons said afterward that
the lemonade served to keep down
the temperature of many lad whose
wounds could not be dressed until
the most serious cases had been at
tended to. And what that cupful Of
good old Yankee drink meant t
those boys who had just come out Of
the inferno of Chateau-Thiepry, will

cation with the military forces Of the

tinue its operations with the fighting
men.
Grainger County news. (Rutledge, Tenn.) 1917-current, 1918-11-21

Since the war is won, there seems
to be a tendency among the people to
just let things rock along and take
care of themselves. But this is I'M
wise. Our obligations to the govern
ment, to the boys yet in the army
and to those who are dependent upon
US for food are not lessened by the
signing of an armistice or even peace
ms. To meet the dem
nations program of capitulation and
reconstruction, more money must be
raised. The Y. M. G. A., Red Cross
and other organizations of like char
acter must have funds with which
to care for soldiers both at home and
abroad. This nation, the richest and
most productive in the world, will be
called upon to actually furnish more
fiodstuffs now than it had anticipated
and planned to furnish had hostili.
ties continued. The resources of the
people and countries of Europe art
we'll nigh exhausted and this country
must provide bread for them. Blu
for the aid of the United States, gaun
famine will add to the misery Of thu
people who have saved and sacrificed
for US and for the cause for which W.
have been fighting. We must by pro
duction and conservation sustain thu
brave and heroic people of France
and Belgium - those people whC
have suffered most from the ravage!
