RUSSIAN MINISTERS
OBJECTS Of CRITICISM
Premier Kokovtseff and For

tackled for Their Policies.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

ST. PETERSBRG, May 3. 1912.
Two ministers of the present cabinet
stand clearly out in the imagination or
patriots, place hunters and fortune seek
ers as fit objects of attack-the Premier
Kokovtseff and the Foreign Secretary
SECONDHAND, accordingly, every lever
is being set in motion to discredit their
policy and turn them out of office.
Between Kokovtseff and the nationalist
party, which the late Premier Stolypin
created, antagonism was foregone con-
clusion. For he is not a continuauor of
the policy Of his predecessor. He is a
moderator The late Premier Stolypin
took up the cry Russia for the Rus

remain.
Meanwhile a tremendous press cam
paign has been organized against the
two ministers, and the most influential
newspaper in the empire. the Noyoe
Vremya is on the side of their enemies
NJ. Sazonoff is singled out by that jour
nal for attack because OF the post
ponement of his speech on foreign ar
fairs. But nobody was more ANXIOUS
to expedite matters than SazonoH,
whose department is in immediate
need of money. NJ. Giers. the new am

Picking, were in hurry TO set out at
once for their posts, but the ministry
lacked the funds necessary to supply
them with advances As they could

gave deep offense to the other nationali-

ties.
Stolypin's narrow views found in ko-
koytseff a sharp critic. and his measures
an uncompromising opponent The for
mer was moved by impulse. the latter lis
directed by reasoning. Stolypin was
fanatic. Kokovtseff is financier, whose
main object Is to build UP Russia's credit
and keep her supplied with the where
withal to reorganize her land and sea
forces, and carry out all necessary re-
forms AS his perception Of immutable
facts is keen and his courage active he
allows due weight to the public opinion
of Europe even when he differs from 1T.
Hence he has set limits to the coercion
practiced against the Jews. the Firms
and the nationalities generally, and has
thereby brought whole colony of hor-
nets about his ears, besides which the
natfonalities are. of course, dissatisfied
because, being a Russian. he has not en-
tirely reversed Stolypin's policy and
treated them as the chosen people.

Another of Same School.

Sazonoff is another representative Of

which, aiming at the furtherance OF
Russia's best interests. does not con-

Prohibition Area Diminishing.

In the past year. said Mr.. Dennehy.
'the area of statewide prohibition has
been largely diminished. The area of ter
ritory under county option also has been
greatly curtailed There are today more
wet municipalities than there were a
year ago. In spite of the tremendous
clamor of our assailants. there has been
no elimination in the output Of ardent
spirits. There was more whisky con-
sumed in 1910 than in 1909, and more con-
sumed in 1911 than in 1910. Therefore the
boast of the Anti-Saloon League and the
prohibitionsts that they have accom-
plished anything for true prohibition is
shown to be a fallacy
mo one has ever imagined that they
could accomplish anything for true tenn
perance.
1.-The objection of the trade to prohibi-
ton is that il increases the sale of cheap
goods and dminshes the demand for the
higher grades of liquors.
This, of course. is injurious to the men
who have large investments designed and
built TO supply a large demand for high
grade goods.

Eyes Get the First Attention.

There is no such disguise as that OF
the eyes. If we want TO get an i'm
preston of a persons face we have to
look at the eyes. You will find this
in any railway carriage or public con-
veyance. You are interested in n
face; you fix your eyes on the opposite
eyes. II the eyes meet both fall; the
eyes drop apoogetically, for the in.
quiry is too intimate. The two people
know well enough, though neither may
be an artist, that you cannot get an i'm.
preston OF the face by looking at the
chin or the forehead or the nose. You
must look straight at the eyes-the
window OF the soul--and the face be-
comes a recognizable unit. The best
disguise, as burglars and grownup chill
dren know, Is the mask that covers the
eyes only.-London Standard.
