Mr.. Stolypin's great land experiment
iu Russia seems to be working well. II
would be premature I" pronounce IT an
entire success. for it has not yet been
adopted widely enough and las not
anywhere been in force long enough for
that Judgment. But at least it may be
said that So far as it has been under
taken il has been successful and has
received the hearty approval OF the
peonic. To he able 10 say that after
four years of practical trial and after
such extensive trial that the physical

We may add. moreover. that there iS

thousands Of Russian peasants to avail
themselves Of the provisions Of the
Stolypin law. while of those who have
already done 50 fewer than 3 per cent
lave made complaints of diSsatisfac-
ton. and even these few have invari-
ably complained of nothing more than
better than they.
The purpose Of Mr.. Stolypin's great
reform is 10 break up the communal sys-
tcm which has long prevailed in Russia
and to replace il with individual
peasant proprietorshiD of the land. TO
this end local land commissions have
been formed To draft tenancies and ar
range the details OF purchase and sale.

Judgment will scarcely be ignored. Both
political parties went on record in the
late campaign as favoring the mainten-

the two. and the Governor-elect is. OF

FOR THE EXPRESS EMPLOYEES
Consumers League Thinks Demand for
Shorter Day Just One.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In view of the present conflict be-
tween the express companies and their e1ll-
ployes the Consumers League of the city
of New York feels that it is timely to point
out again the fact which 1t has emphasized
for some years namely, that the men en-
gagged on express and delivery wagons have
been obliged to work an excessively IONS
day.
At anv time teams may he seen on the
streets late in the evening, and in the rush
seasons they are no uncommon sight AT
midnight and after At the holiday season
the hours of work are so far extended tnat
men have to work far into the night on
Christmas Eve and all Christmas Day
They often work on other legal holidays
The men assert that they receive no pay
for this overtime Few groups Of workers
are more often denied all right to leisure
than the express and delivery wagon
drivers.
Members of the Consumers League nave
made II practice when purchasing goods
to request that they shall not be delivered
after 6 O'Clock in the evening, and as
protest to the merchants and employers
against the very long hours have consist
entity refused 10 TtCeiNt S'puS NOiiNCio"
after s o'clock.
Each year the leagues appeal to the
public to do the Christmas shopping early
has indicated the strain which the holiday
season brings to c%2rossmen, delivery
clerks and wagon boys. as well as sales
people
That any group OF men should he obliged
to strike for an eleycn-hOur day in this
enlightened age, when the eight-hOur day
is already established as the attainable
standard. seems 10 us TO indicate that in
the cause of social progress the fairminded
members of the community should see to it
that the demand of the striking express
men for a shorter working day is granted.

Sir: l do not make public statements
that I cannot vouch for. and the reply to
this criticism has been published in my
book, Woman and the Republic" for over
a dozen years. On page f76 of that book
you will find this statement:
In the spring of 1884 Miss Anthony and
EarneStine Rose presented petition to the
New York Legislature, and The Albany
Argus" of March 4, published a resume of
husband and wife should be tenants in
common of property. without survivOrShip,
but with a partition on the death of one
That married women should be en-
titled to their own earnings, subject to their
proportional liability for support of chill

belong equally to husband and wife
This quotation from THE Argus" was
taken from the History Of Women Suf-
1race" written by Mrs. Stanton and Miss
Anthony. I cannot give you the page. as
I have loaned the book That you may
see how much more nOhly the laws Of
New York have been made in favor of
women than this sociaIistic demand Of
