CONSTITUTIONAL
CHANGES PART
OF RUSS PLANS
Present Government Is Tempo
rary Arrangement to Tide
Over Empire
BY Associated Press

Petrograd, Thursday, March Is, Z
p. m, via London, March 16. - The
old regime of Conservatives has been
supplanted by government of Lib
erals. M. Kerenski, the new Minister
or Justice, is Socialist. He accepted
the portfolio on the stipulation that
there should be absolute freedom of
speech and of the press, and full po-
htical amnesty. The cabinet has been
chosen exclusively from present and
past members of the Duma 1t was
named by the executive committee OF
the Duma in conjunction with other
deputies and Representatives and
working men and the soldiers, which
held an all night session.
Prof. Paul Milukoff, the new foreign
minister, informed the Associated
Press that the new regime was deter
mined on the elimination of Emperor
Nicholas and the regency of Grand
Duke Michael.
Champion Peoples Rights
we shall not change these de-
mands, he said. I'VE shall have this
or rail-. We can accomplish nothing
less. The new cabinet contains men
who led in the struggle against the
old government and enjoyed full conf
dence of the country. Professor Milu-
kon and M. Shingaroff, the new Min
lister of Agriculture, have become es-
pSShtlly prominent as champions OF
the rights of the people. 1t is due to
Professor Milukoff that revelations re-
garding the political intrigue and cor
ruption of the old reactionary govern
ment were brought before the pub
lic."
While the Duma and the working
mems committee agreed upon the cab
met they still remained somewhat al
odds regarding the form the new gov
ernment shall assume. The working
mems deputies wished to leave this
question undecided until after the
holding of a constitutional Assem- bly
which Will be charged with revising
the present constitution, desiring to
call this assembly without delay.
Call For Constitution
The Duma group, fearing dangers
to the country in the absence of a de-
finite government, suggested abdica-
ton of the Emperor and the regency
or Grand Duke Michael This will be
the temporary arrangement pending
the decision of the constitutional as
sembly. The following additional cab
met appointments have been made:
Minister of Trade and Commerce.

Procurator General of the Holy
Synod, M. Lvoff.

Upward Tendency in Price Of Farm
Products Makes Farming
Profitable.
The N. N. Witt Land Company
sends the Democrats copy of the An
nual Report of the Board Of Trade OF
the city of Chicago, giving the aver
age price of wheat each year since
1860. In that year wheat sold at from
sc cents to $1.13, the highest price
paid being during the month of May.
In January, 1865, the price was
$1.55, the lowest price being paid for
that year being S5c.
In 1870 the price ranged from 70
to $1.31; in 1875, S3 to $1.30; 1886
from Sc to $1.32; 1885, 70 to 81;
1890, from "a to $1.08; 1895, from
As to 81; 1900, from 81 to 81; 1905,
from II to $1.25; 1910, from SO tc
$1.29.
Then during the last seven years
from 1909 to 1907 inclusive, the low
est price quoted TIC, while top was

that the period mentioned was one
of uniformly good prices for wheat
and all other produce was bringing

HOW FARMER WAS CONVERTED
Conversion Began When He Realized
Value Of Good Roads in Lessening
Cost Of Transportation.

When the good roads campaign fol-
lowed close upon the wider use of au-
|tomobiles many farmers grumbled
about the prospect of high taxation,
which they ascribed to an endeavor
to benefit city motor owners at the ex-
pense of the rural community.
When the farmer began to buy au-
tomObiles himself he experienced a
change of heart. His conversion real
ly began when he realized the value
of good roads in lessening the cost Of
transportation to himself. Rural mail
delivery helped, the roads had to be
better so that the carrier could "get
through"
The farmer should be even more
fully reconciled to the good roads de-
velOpment when he learns, as he may,
that a large percentage of the license
fees paid by both city and rural au-
tomobilists goes straight into the good
roads fund.
In the United States, 80 per cent
Of the license money goes into the
building and maintenance Of state and
country roads, and this sum defrays z
per cent Of the total for road and
bridge building. Steps in this direc-
tion have already been taken by most
Of the Canadian provinces, and good
roads expenditures are gradually on
the increase along with the increase
in the number Of automobiles.

with little prospect of quick drying Of

he sees road drag, for he knows that

SHERIFF WILL BE
WELL DEFENDED


When the case of Burns VS.. Dob
son, damage suit mention of which
was made in these columns few
weeks ago, was called for setting OF
time for trial by Judge Downer in the
district court Monday afternoon, there
were no attorneys listed in the trial
docket for either side. When the
court called for the attorneys for the
defense five Liberal lawyers arose to
their feet and announced their SER
vices at the disposal of the sheriff.
None had. been solicited by Sheriff
Dobson to take the case, and their Of
fer to defend him was purely volun-
tary and without thought Of remun-
Grafton in any way. The attorneys
volunteering their services were: G.
L. Light, C. r. Commons, F. 8. Macy,
g. w. Sawyer. and q. w. Davis. Sher-
IL DobsOn is serving his second term
and cannot be candidate to succeed
himself; four OF the attorneys men,
toned are Republicans and the sher-
iff is Democrat, hence no political
significance can be attached to this
but the Incident serves to
show the opinion in which the sheriff
is held by the members Of the bar,
and the merits of the case in which
he is sued for damages.

The value of farming land depends
very largely on the distance from 2

of shortening the time required for
