A Russian ReactiOniSt Paper
Attacks Prince Mirsky.
HE CONFlSCATES ISSUE.
Radical Paper Increases the Gravity Of
the Situation by Rebuking the
Car = An Ala to Princes
Enemies.

ST. Petersburg, Nov. "a. Interior
Minister Syiatopolk -Mirsky went to
Tsarskoe selo today to present the Fem.
stvos' memorial to Emperor Nicholas
The situation is extremely delicate.
Two incidents have occurred, both Of
which must initiate against the liberals
and increase the difficulty Of Prince
Syiatopolk Mirsky's position.
Prince Mestchersky, editor OF the
Grashdanin, who is head of the reaction
airy press, this morning unmasked his
batteries, attacking the interior minister
in such q fashion for his liberal tenden.
cies that Prince Syiatopolk Mirsky was
compelled to order the confscation Of
the issue. In the strength Of the influ-
ence behind such an attack lies the real
significance of Prince Mestchersky's act.
AT the same time from the opposite
direction the Nasha Ziesn (0ur Life), a
new radical paper authorized BY Min
lister Syiatopolk- Mirsky, INDUCED in d
direct attack on the emperor with the
result that the minister ordered the sus-
pension Of the publication.
The action of this paper is considered
TO be very unfortunate, as it places O
powerful weapon in the hands Of Prince
SyiatopoIk Mirsky's enemies.
Many Of the minister's friends arc
inclined now to believe that the Gem
stYoists went too far, and have leopard
lied the position Of their best friend.
Prince Quk htomsky, editor of the
viedomosti, said to the Associated
Press:
"The duty Of an friends Of liberal
regime is to uphold and sustain Prince
Sviatopolk- Aiirsky in every way posi-
bic His retirement would be great

ROYAL TONIC

Mcksrt & Wells Enthusiastic
Over This Delicious Cod Liver OIL

We sell many tonics," said Mr.. Wells
Iof Rickert 4 Wells, our well known

because we are druggists, and it is our
business to supply the public with that
which they want.
when our advice is asked, however,
az to tonic and rebuilder, strength
creator and an appetite producer, we
invariably recommend Vinol We do
this because we know all about Vinol.
We know all that it contains, and will
tell you it IS not a secret patent lnedi-
cine We have sold enormous quantities
of 1t, and we have had every opportuni.
ty afforded us to watch the results
that have been accomplished by the
use OF this wonderful reconstruction.
IF you have not yet had occasion to
use such a tonic we should like to have
you call on us, and learn why we are
SO enthusiastic about this scientific rem.
edy.
"Vinol contains All the curative prin-
ciples in a highly concentrated form
that are found in cod liver oil 1t does
not contain, however, any OF the OBJ
noxious, digestion destroying grease that

A Business 0pportunity,

Editor Independent: AT this time
OF year there is always a demand for
seed wheat. Orders for nearly two car
loads of seed OF Turkish Red wheat
have come to the experiment station.
before harvest. The station is not in
a position to, fill these orders but there
are, or should be, wheat growers who
can supply the demand.
In practically all cases these parties
wanted pure wheat and naturally they
wanted wheat of good quality. With
greater progress in farming comes
demand for professional growers Of
seeds OF field crops Farmers are be-
coming impressed with the Importance
of well bred seed, and they realize that
man who makes business OF pro-
ducing some good kind of seed can do
1t to letter advantage than one who
has his attention occupied with other
interest. They are accordingly willing
to pay good price for seed that they
can depend upon.
What is needed is more men who
will raise pure variety OF wheat,
corn, etc, and who will take pains to
keep pure and improve these crops.
There is good opportunity for those
who are fitted by inclination and loca-
ton for handling such an enterprise to
make money raising seed wheat. Once
a reputation as grower of reliable
seed of purity and good quality Is esI
tablished good price may be asked
for every bushel of seed sold The
Kansas farmers and miilers who Inn
ported seed wheat from Crimea at
great expense few years ago are we'll
pleased with their investment. They
found that it is profitable to pay a
good price for good seed. But there
is no reason why as good seed can not
be produced in this region as can be
grown in Crimea. In confirmation of
this ] may say that the Turkish Red
wheat We have been growing at the
experiment station yielded as well as
the imported Crimean when the two
wefe grown side by side
There are farmers IN this region
VINO are now raising wheat OF good
quality, and who by paying ierict at
tention TO improving their wheat, ans:
by making to at least certain extent
a special feature OF growing seed
