Russia.
St. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-Following
the official announcement that the cZar
has yielded to M. Whites demand that
he surrender his autocratic power and
establish a constitutional form of gov
ernment the czar has issued the fol-
lowing manifesto:
eve direct our government to carry
out our inflexible will in the following
manner:
"Eirst-To extend to, the population
the immutable foundations of civic lib
erty based on the real inviolability of
person, freedom of conscience, speech,
union and association.
'Second-Without suspending the
already ordered elections to the state
douma, to invite to participation in the
douma, so far as the limited time be-
fore the convocation of the douma will
permit those classes of the population
now completely deprived of the elec-
toral rights, leaving the ultimate de-
velopment OF the principle of the elec-
toral right in general to the newly
established legislative order of things.
"Third-To establish as an un-
changeable rule that no law shall be
enforceable without the approval of
the state douma and that it shall be
possible for the elected of the people
to exercise real participation in the
supervision of the legality of the acts
of the authorities appointed,b by us.
"We appeal TO all faithful sons of
Russia to remember their duty toward
the fatherland, to aid in terminating g
these unEe CdCnted troubles and to
apply their forces in cooperation with
upon our natal soil"

duty on art have been made at every
session since the present tariff law went
into effect. 1t has been repeatedly urged
that the duty is of little Importance
to the government from a revenue point
OF view, that it is entirely useless as
protection to home artists and that 1t is
a hindrance to public education in art
matters. There is no question as to the
soundness of these arguments, but they
have thus far failed to make much Of
an impression upon congress and 1t is
not probable that the advocates Of a re-
movul Of the duty will be more success
full with the present than with preceding
congresses. 1t should be understood that
works of art which come in for public
exhibition are not taxed. The United
States occupies a somewhat unique po-
sition I'm this matter. but it is doubtful
IL the artists and those who sympathize
with their desire to have the duty on
works of art removed will be able to
persuade congress that this should be
done.

Free passes to state and city oficlals,
members Of the legislature and their
friends no longer will be issued by the New
York Central Railroad company. They
were cut OF by an order Of the board Of
directors adopted at a special meeting
called for the purpose Of considering the
free pass evil. The order went into effect
today. No passes hereafter will be issued
except to employees actually engaged on the
road or its branches
Heretofore state and city officials, MEM
bers of the legislature and their friends
enjoyed the pass privileges for the mere
asking. Despite the law on the question
the New York Central always has been ex-
ceedingly generous in the matter Of fur
nishing free transportation and favors to
men of official standing anywhere in the
state.
Senators and assemblymen were daily
visitors at the Office of the company in the
Grand Central depot. 1t is likely the ques-
lions asked Senator Depew on this subject
in the insurance inquiry had something to
do with the order.-New York dispatch to
the Chicago Tribune.
The New York insurance inquiry has
developed nothing new with regard to
the pernicious influence of railroad
passes upon public officials and es-
pecially upon law makers, but if the
precedent established by the New York
Central is followed out by the other rail
roads Of the country, or most of the
other railroads, it will go far toward al
laying the popular resentment over cor
porate domination.
In New York, as in Nebraska and al
most every other state, public officials
have been demoralized by pass bribery
and the evil has been growing from
year to year in spite of statutory prohi-
billions In many Of the states.

THOSE "GOOD OLD TIMES"
Contrasts Between Present and
Former hanksGivinE Days.
Kansas City Star.

Thanksgiving week naturally recalls the
good old times" when, according to ira
dition, every family could afford a turkey
for its autumn feast. Well, some OF them
could. But after all the contrast between
the plenty OF those old days and the poverty
that overshadows so many unhappy thou
sands in this present year, is probably
heightened by the kindly lapse of memory
by which unpleasant experiences rapidly
fade from the average mans mind
For life was not all roses to the early
nineteenth century family. BY 1925, ac-
cording TO Prof. McMaster, the over
crowded labor market. the housing Of the
poor the rise of tenements the conges-
tion OF population and the restitution pro-
duced by low wages and irregular en-
ployment had already become matters for
serious consideration. An unskilled labOrer.

hours work and found employment for 300
days in the year"
Many men worked for from q to 81 cents
a day in winter and for g. to 81 cents
daily in summer by toiling fourteen hours.
Sewing women earned 50 cents a week
Wages were not paid weekly or monthly,
but at long and irregular intervals. and
them still more uncertain. Men were still
liable to imprisonment for debt In 1929
about 1000 debtors were in prison in New

each in Massachusetts and Maryland When
an employer failed, no lien law gave the
worker a claim on the product Of his labor.

Things are rather better than they were

problems have correspondingly grown
