HANDS FOR RUSSIAN PEASANTS

The recent ukase published by the
ear may prove to be one of the very
important steps in reforming the civ
jlization Of Russia. 1t will at least
nrove the fact as to whether or not
the peasant can grasp the fundamen-
4al idea OF independence. 1t is aimed
II the communal system. which is re-
karded as great school of socialism.
and therefore opposed to the inteEeEts
81 monarchy. atSperimfts epy .pesaGat
to abandon his STARE bf me COMMUNAL
land and become AN indviduaE free
holder.
In America this. concession is con-
sidered a great boon and millions Of
acres of the public domain have pass
ed from the government into the
hands Of the people. The Russian
peasants. however, have had until this
time a different view. Their principal
complaint has been directed against
individual land holding. They have
UccA HSHtihS dSohisl tLc 6iSoe hhuA0
vidual estates of the aristocracy and
seeking to convert them into indi-
vidual holdings. They look upon these
estates as merely the aristocrats share
of the common property of the nation
and they think the aristocrats have
been given too much.
But the Russian peasant mind has
not yet arisen above the communal
idea, and It appears to them quite
reasonable that the car should divide
these estates as they should redivide
their own lands among the members
Of the communes each year. Last
August the car placed 100000 acres
Of crown lands in the peasants bank
for distribution among the peasantry
1t is not known to what extent the
decree has been carried out, but the
recent ukase is evidently intended to
supplement it by encouraging the
peasants to take land as individuals
II the policy succeeds, the peasant
party may be found supporting the
cxar in the next douma, and find in
individual ownership their, first ex-
perience in Independence.

porter had not the pleasure of
meeting Mr.. Romines any more
until one day last week when he
stepped into our place of business
looking as natural as he did when
he drove cattle bare footed up
and down big creek for Yates &
Hearing. After taking a good
hand shake with our old friend
he began to talk of by-gone days
and the many things that had
taken place since he left old KY,
and he finally he wound up the
conversation by telling me of his
accumulations of this worlds
goods down in that good old State
of Missouri. We must say here
that nothing does us more good
than to know that a poor boy
from old Adair county and es-
pecially from GradyVille goes to
a new country comes to the front
equal to any body financially.
Success to you Green.

WE'D, NOV. I. 1906.

From present indications the
Democratic primary called on the
day of the general election, pre-
sumably for the purpose of aiding
the party in the close districts,
failed to produce the results its
advocates claimed. The Third
went 700 Republican and the
Ninth 1000 There never was a
time when we believed it good
party policy to hold it as an aux
Hilary to the general election and
there never was an hour when
we believed it good for the party
on or off of the election day. A
policy that shuts out ability,
worthy ambition and aspiration,
simply on the ground of money,
is not one for which any party
may hope to gain strength. 1t is
an experiment with the Demo-
cratic party in the State and we
hope that it will be the last as
we'll as the first.
