MEMBERSHIP OF RUSSIAN DumA.
Only % Out Of 400 VIII Come From

The 400 members of the Russian
Imperial Duma must have certain
property qualifications. They must be
able to speak Russian and they must

the session of the Duma, and mileage
at the rate of two and a half cents
mile to and from the capital. AS first
designed these members were to be
elected in rather roundabout way.
Groups of electors were first to be
chosen from three great classes OF
Russian society; the landowners, the
village communities and the munich

scheme further admitted large num-
