THE AGRARIAN BILL.
st. Petersburg, July 3.-The government
agragrian bill has finally been approved.
introduced in the lower house OF parlia-
ment and published in the Official Mes
senger accompanied by a sort OF procla-
nation TO the peasants glorifying the En-

tribution OF all the arabic state lands in
European Russia would give each peas
ant less than one additional deciatine,
which would be subject TO constant dmi-
mutton owing to increase In the popula-
ton and besides. would deprive the peas
ants OF the opportunity of obtaining work
from the landlords, from whom a large
percentage OF their income is derived.
AS HIully SUBMITTED, the government
solution makes the following propositions:
First, to distribute upon Favorable
terms all the arabic lands In European
Russia TO the peasants who have not suffi-
cient land.
Second. to purchase for the account of
the state the land which private owners
are willing to sell.
Third. TO sell such lands TO the peasants
on reasonable terms even II this involves
the assumption by the state OF the diff
ference In the cost and the selling price.
Fourth, to establish the principle that
new as well as old peasants lands are
not salable TO persons not belonging TO
the peasant class. besides exempting the
land from seizure for debt.
