He Can't Vote for Himself at the
Primaries. 's ..
Judge ]. c. Nethaway of saltwater to-day
learned that a recently reformed democrat
who desires to run for ofiee on some. ticket
other than the democratic is. in a peculiar
position with regard to the primaries. He can
run for Office but he cannot vote for himself
or other republicans at the primary election.
Judge Nethaway was for years one of the
leading democrats of the state. He has been
the candidate of his party for Office many
times, Since the last election he has become
converted to republicanism, and is now a. can
ldidate for nomination as county attorney at
the hands of that party. There is nothing gin
the law to prevent "a man who supported one
party at the last election from being a candi
date for nomination at the hands Of an oppos-
ing party this year, but just like ordinary
mortals he is prohibited from assisting in the
selection of candidates for any other party
than the one he supported at the last cleo
ton. : - : 1870 S"- '-.' - -: u

grades in barley. In milwaukee there is %
proposition ito establish "a new grade to be

barley market But Minneapolis has grown
in Importance barley market, and with
the building of the big new malthouses here
and the new elevators for handling barley, 1t is
expected that barley receipts here next sea-

] Hence it is thought desirable to have every
grade that any other market affords in order
that shippers may find it equally to their ad-

REFORMS In RUSSIA
THE CONDITIONS OF PEAsANTRY
Troubles of Commercial Ownership
An Agricultural Commis- r
sion at Work.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
st. Petersburg, July 1.-THE condition
Of agriculture and the peasantry is at
tracing more and more attention. Many
opinions as to the cause Of the existing
agricultural depression and many schemes
for its improvement have been published.
Irrigation, cloud eannonading, reforest-
ing, and increase Of cattle for manuring,
abolition of communal ownership more
railroads, development OF rural industries,
agronomfc education, bimetallism, etc,
etc, have all been warmly advocated, but
it remains to be seen whether any prac-
tical results will be attained. = 5'.s.
On being Interviewed regarding aboli-
tton of communal ownership, Mr. Witte
expressed himself as follows: r. =
II ; believe that for the present the
statesmen OF Russia are not likely to
suppress the village commune. It seems
to me that without Immediately raising
this question the government will strive
merely to remove the more undesirable
features of communal ownership. For
example we have already been endeavor-
ing to check further sub division and re-
partment of the fields and have consid-
cred abolishing. mutual liability for
taxes = r.. 's,.~<SS

would also allow every peasant to re-

Mr.. witte also said that the czar was
deeply interested in the work of the
agricultural commission and wants the
fullest freedom of expression given to
everybody concerned. In addition to the
questions on the program Of the proyin
cial committees, the latter will be allowed
to discuss such others as may occur to
them. It is possible that this may raise
q number Of political questions which
have hitherto been tabooed even when
raised in the provincial efgovernment
assemblies. .f 4. {
