ST. Petersburg, March Io:As the
elections proceed there IS more and more
evidence. of virtual exclusion from par
ticipation Of the radical elements of
the population The preliminary stages
of the election will rob the national as- as
5senlbly Of much Of its national charac:-

solutely denied by the proletariat organ

for liberty.
Complaints Of interference and .dtlress
in the county districts are creasiiig
Many fragrant instances are cited OF the
terrorism of local officials in preventing
the free expression Of the peasants and
often practically compelling the selection
Of priests and village elders. The seem
ing apathy Of the small land owners as
sei1lblies at which an average of only Io
per cent of the voters were present, IS
explainable blythe feeling that they were

A
q Lidgerwood, NJ D. March Io-- 4
fatal shooting affray occurred at Gerie-
SEQ. a small station near here, Friday
night bit the details have only Just
been received here. Hazzlet, " a
wealthy farmer residing at Geneseo, is
in Jail charged with the killing Of I!
M. Van Buskirk, also farmer resid-
ing near Geneseo. ,s
Public feeling, It is reported, is
against Hazzlet and there is talk OF a
.lynching bee. .s
1t appears that Hazzlet and Van
Buskirk had not been on friendly terms
fora year. % Friday, when Hazziet re-
turned from hunting trip, he stopped
1 in Fred Foan1an's qbutcher shop, Var
Buskirk was inside. Hazzlet Ordered
Van BusSirk out of the place and the
latter proceeded to obey the order.

the authorities. He claims that the
shooting was accidental This is not
borne ont by the statement OF the
butcher who was the only eye witness.
The butcher claims that the act OF Haz-
zlet was cold blooded murder, and that
it was not done in SELF defense mas
much as the murdered man had his
overcoat buttoned and his mittens or
when the fatal shot was fred, e., =.
1t was reported that Van Buskirk
had repeatedly threatened that he
would shoot Hazzlet ON sight. Al
the coroner's inquest the4fact that Var
Buskirk had in his possession load
ed revolver at the time OF his death
was brought out 3>
Many stories are current as to thu
cause Of the trouble between Hazzle
and Van Buskirk. 1t is said that Var
Buskirk who is IS years OF age, ha'
charged Hazzlet, who is 65 years Q
age, of being the father Of one OF tn
Van Buskirk children.
Another report OF the trouble is tha

PLEA FOR FARM LIFE.
Rush to the Cities from the Country
Dep1Ored.

DepIOred.
Agriculture as the salvation of the
,ountry was emphasized by James j.
Hill, president of the Great Northern
road, in an address at the opening of the
Minnesota State fair. Mr.. Hill in open
ing deplored the scarcity of labor on the
farms. The reluctance Of immigrants to
seek the country and the rush Of youths
from the farm to the city he regarded as
4 menace to the future welfare and pros
perity of the United States. Within
twenty years." said Mr.. Hill, Eve must
house and employ in some fashion 10000
BOO of additional population, and by the
middle of this century there will be ap-
proximately two and half times as many
people in the United States as there are
to-day. No nation in history was ever
confronted with a sterner question than
this certain prospect sets before US. IL
we are to walk safely in the way OF Wis
dom there is much to be done. 1t IS time
to begin. There must be a national re-
volt against the worship of manufacture
and trade as the only forms Of progressive
activity and the false notion that wealth
built upon these at the sacrifice OF the
fundamental form of wealth production
can endure. A clear recognition on the
part of the whole people, from the highest
down to the lowest, that the tillage OF the
soil is the natural and most desirable oc-
cupation for man, to which every other
Is subsidiary and to which all else must
in the end yield, is the first requisite"

SHOCKS IN INDIANA.
PEOPLE FLEE IN FEAR FROM
SHAKEN BUILDINGS.
Cities in Southern Part of State Feel
Earthquake TremOrs Distinctly
New Yorker Killed by Explosive
He Invented.

Southern Indiana was visited by sue
cession Of earthquake shocks between 10
and II o'clock Friday morning and in
some places they were 50 severe as to
brighten the people, causing them to leave
their homes and rush into the streets. At
some points as many as three shocks were
felt. while at others there was a success
sion Of tremOrs that lasted several sec
ords. but not distinct enough to be recOg-
nized as separate shocks. Princeton and
Owensville, a few miles distant, appear
TO have felt the quakes more sensi5ly
than other cities. At the former some of
the buildings rocked and the occupants
were greatly frightened. They rushed
into the streets, men, women and chill
,iren. and for a few moments were terror
stricken. At Owensville, where there were
three distinct shocks, people left their
homes and remained away for several
hours, fearing to return. Shocks were
felt at a number of other places. the ire
mors apparently being from west to east.
At Boonyille the shocks were so sensibly
felt at the court house that all the county
officials left the building.

CUBA's TRADE WITH U. $. GROWS
Exports to Island for 1905 Are $45,-
763, 6SS-Record Broken.

A report issued by the Department of
Commerce and Labor in Washington
says: Commerce of the United States
with Cuba in the fiscal year just ended
was greater than in any earlier year of
the trade relations between the United
States and that island. This is particu-
Iarly true of exports. The imports from
the island fell slightly below those of
1908, due to the fall in the price of sugar,
but the exports to the island were % per
cent greater than in 1905; 70 per cent
greater than in 1904 and about 120 per
cent greater than in 1908. Exports to
Cuba aggregated $47, 7636SS in 1906
Prior to 1895 the value of the imports
into the United States from Cuba ranged
in most years from $5O,000,OO0 to $751;
100000. Of the five articles forming the
bulk of our imports from Cuba sugar
amounted in value in 1906 to $60,0OO,O0O,
tobacco $13,JOO,0O0, cigars and cigarettes
100000.
