The Agrarian Trouble.

st. Petersburg June 9.-DiscussioD
of the agrarisn problem is now claiming
the attention of the DOuma, to the pracli.
cal exclusion of all other subjects. Ex-
IRENE pressure has been brought to
bear on the labor deputies by their con-
stitutents who have been flooding them
with letters and kilograms demanding
that they shall stand firm on the agrarian
question. The peasant electrs also
insist that immediate attention shall
be given to relieving their burdens.
The effect of this agitation on the part
of the big body of peasants has been to
stir the labor deputies to unusual exer-
tons to see that the DOuma shall take
some definite action to bring about re-
forms which will benefit The peasants.
Every other subject has been side
tracked to allow the debate on the
agrarian troubles to proceed. The pro-
pOsal was made today to limit the time
of speakers in order to expedite the
work of the douma, but it was rejected,
and the discussion resumed at length.

sheep, attacked by dogs, and lost his
life after a desperate battle with fierce
great Dane. The ram and the dog fought

being torn in the sod where the en-
counter took place, but the superior size

SATURDAY EVENING. JUNE 9, 1906

The political aspect and possible con-
SEQUENCES of the fight on the meat IT,
spection bill is causing serious alarm to
the administration and to republicans
in Congress So decided stand has
been taken by Speaker Cannon and his
assistants in the management OF the
House against the character OF leglsla-
tion which the President and the peo-
ple demand that the promised passage
through the House of bill drawn by
the representatives of the meat packers
and drawn in their interest will, in the
opinion of many, afford the democrats
q basis for attack on the administration
which no argument and no achievements
heretofore can withstand. In q spirited
letter to Chairman Wadsworlh, of the
House committee on agriculture,
President Roosevelt yesterday again
urged the passage of an effective meat
bill, and declared that the report ofCom'
tnissioners Neill and Reynolds on the re.
voting conditions at Chicago was not
too strong. In fact, the President says
he has more startling evidence ready for
the committee, if it should be needed.
Friends of the packers in the House
declare that President Roosevelt is trl-
ding with a great industry. The Presl-
dent says the packers have been trifing
with the health and lives of the Ameri-
can people. And it is not difficult TO es-
innate how extreme will be public in
dignation if a republican House, re-
sisting all the efortS of the President to
obtain the passage of an effective law,
enacts only such legislation as may be
satisfactory TO the packers. Upon the
eve of Congressional campaign the
attitude of Speaker Cannon aud the ma
iority Of the members of the committee
on agriculture presents smensce to the
republican party more serious than any
that has confronted it in years, and
affords much apprehension for the Presi-
dent and those who stand with him in
the pending fight.

THE President yesterday signed the
denatured slcohol bill, and it is now law
The act removes the tax Of S2.08 gal
lon from such grain alcohol as is intend
ed for use in arts and manufactures, and
is rendered unfit for drinking or medic.
insl purposes by the admixture of wood
alcohol or other poisonous matter pre-
scribed by the government. The re-
movsl of the tax reduces the price OF
alcohol for light snd fuel 10 20 cents 3
gallon. and will add millions of dollars
TO the earnings of the farmer, as alcohol
can be made cheaply from many farm
products.
