PetrOgrad.-The Emperor of Russia
has abdicated and Grand Duke
Michael Alexandrovitch. his young
brother, has been named as regent
The Russian ministry, charged with
corruption and incompetence, has
been swept out of Office One minis.
ter, Alexander Protopopoff, head OF
the Interior Department, is reported
to have been killed, and other minis.
ters, as well as the president of the
Imperial Council. are under arrest.
A new national cabinet is an
nounced, with Prince Lvoff as presi
dent of the council and premier, and
the other Offices held by the men who
are close to the Russian people.
For several days Petrograd has
been the scene Of one of the most re-
markable rising in history. Begin.
ming with minor food riots and labor
strikes, the cry for food reached the
hearts of the soldiers, and one by one
the regiments rebelled, until finally
those troops that had for a time stood
loyal to the government, took up their
the revolutionists.
The Hour Had Struck.
The president of the Duma, Michael
V. Rodzianko, was the leading figure
among the deputies who unanimously
decided to oppose the imperial order
for dissolution of the House. They
continued their sessions and M. Rod.
xiankO informed the Emperor, then at
the front, that the hour had struck
when the will of the people must
prevail. Even the imperial council
realized the gravity of the situation
and added its appeal to that Of the
Duma, that the Emperor should take
steps to give the people a policy and
government in accordance with their
desires and in order that there should
be no interference with carrying on
the war to victorious ending.
The Emperor hastened back from
the front, only to find that the revo
luton had been successful, and that
a new government was in control.
The Empress, who before her mar
rage to the Emperor in 1894, was the
German Princess Alex of Hesse-Darm
stadt, it is alleged has been infuen
tial in the councils opposed to the
wishes of the people, is reported tC
have fed or to be in hiding. Another
report is that she has been placed
under guard.
ReaetionarIes Locked Up.
The revolution was comparatively
bloodless. Some fighting took place
on the first day, during which bridges
in Petrograd were blown up in orde,
to isolate certain sections of the city
AS far as is known here no prominen
persons were killed.
Virtually all the so-called pro-Ger
man reactionaries are in custody.
The revolution was as successful a.
It was sudden. 1t has given complete
control of the government of Russii
to the Duma, backed by the army, an,
what is termed the "push-the-wa
party" is now in power.
The revolution, which evidently wa
carefully prepared, broke out simu
taneously in Petrograd and Moscow
The garrisons, which obeyed the ir
structions Of the revolutionaries, i'm

This has been an unusually unia-

great number OF big pumpkins seen
on the market proves the value Of
vine crops. Probably the people have
always grown pumpkins, but hereto
fore they have had so much other
stun to sell that this valuable product
has been neglected, A year like this
