TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 26, 1906. ALLAD1N SCORES j RUSSIAN IV11N1STHY Famine: Made Use of to Con Vert the Revolutionary Pop : ulace of the Empire. EXCITING SCENE FOLLOWS Minister Stoljkln Is Greeted AVith Misses and Calls to Resign, While His Fellows Are Hooted as They Leave House, ' ST. PETERSBURG, June 25. The sec ond appearance of Interior Minister Stoljrpin in the lower House of Parlia ment today, to answer an interpellation about the", governmental measures for famine relief, especially the alleged orders that relief be not given In the districts where agrarian disorders have occurred or: to the wives of families of peasants imprisoned as revolutionists', was the oc casion for another exciting scene, but the demonstration was again engineered by . the Tactical group, and the majority generally did .not participate in it. The Btorm broke when M. Stolypin, af ter, giving a serious reply to the criticism of his response by Prince Lvoff and other Moderates, turned to M. Aladin, who made one of his virulent speeches, and declared that, as an "executive officer of the government, I refuse to notitce the calumnies or fables of the left." The radicals thereupon manifested their disapproval, hissing and shouting ''assassin.- "liar," "Jew-baiter" and "resign!" The demonstrations for some time contin ued, in spite of the efforts of President Mouromsteff to restore order. Crowd Conies to Hear Explanation. The announcement that M. Stolypin would take the rostrum today and the expectation that the report of M. St. C'hepkin, chairman, of the parliamentry commission sent to Bialystok to investi gate the massacre tf Jews, would be presented, drew a large audience to the Taurlde Palace, but the presentation of the Bialystok report was postponed until Thursday, on account of the delay In printing it. M. Stolypin arrived at the House only after recess, following an uninteresting morning session. After giving figures showing that the expenditures for famine relief in 19U6 amounted to J3T,000,000, M. Stolypin said the Ministry would soon coma before the House with a request for a sum almost as large, required for this year, though the famine conditions were exaggerated. He then took up the charge of withholding relief as a puni tive measure in disorderly districts, which was the keynote of the interpellation, and entered a general dental. Peasants Destroyed Granaries. - The Minister explained that such ac tion had been taken where the peasantry, in their unreasoning wrath, had destroyed the nagazinee of grain accumulated for their, benefit. This, however, was only temporary, and in thousands of cases as-' Blstance had been given to families of participants In disorders!. The statement that the government was refusing to permit-the relief of the starv ing populace by private means, continued the Minister, was based on a misunder standing. Free dining-rooms . which had been opened in several districts had, in deed, been closed,, -but the ' Minister al-; leged that this was done only where the revolutionists were using them to spread their propaganda, and In the future, where private - assistance was not intended to cloak other purposes, the Ministry would welcome it with "the greatest favor. There were no audible expressions of disapproval when M. Stolypin finished his explanation. The first four speakers who followed greeted him with the greatest courtesy, though criticizing the accuracy of his information and the wisdom of the governmental measures. Aladdin's Bold Challenge. M. Aladin then, mounted the rostrum and flatly- challenged the truth of M. Stolypln'e explanation. He stated that he had documentary evidence that the policy of convertltng the revolutionary populace, by allowing them to starve, was devised by the Vice-Minister of the In terior, Gurko, who, after standing sponsor to the idea several ttmes when on the Agrarian Commission ..and during the Ministry of M. Curnovo, was now placed in change f le agrarian relief by M. Stolypin." ; The Speaker-JeclarefV :that the House was reaJy to appropriate the money asked for by I. Stolypin. but .lte cHHbuteement must be entrusted: fo a Parliamentary Commission;" wherfev threer-fotirths of It would not adhere to the fingers of the "bureaucratic thieves." who occupied high: as well as low placed in,the Ministry. "Sot a single kopek to a Ministry jn which is such a man as Gurko, who" now sits smiling wiCh affected indifference at my right," said M. Afadin in conclu sion. After a more temperate 'address on the part of M. Roditcheft, a leader of the Constitutional .Democrats, in.- the. -Xwer House, M. Stolypin again ascended the rostrum. The demonstration occurred at the end of his second explanation. During the succeeding debate the lead ers of the Constitutional Democrats and of the Group of Toil got together and agreed on the text of the following reso lution, which wae almost unanimous: "The, loer House ofParliament, find ing that relief of the famine-stricken population has been prevented in the past by the intervention by the Ministry on political grounds, and will be so in' the future, so Jong as the present irrespon sible Ministry Is in power, finds it neces sary to organize assistance through public establishment and entrusts the- Agrarian Commission with the elaboration of a pla nof relief under thorough Parliament ary control '. . Ministers Hooted Out of Hall. The Ministers, after the -.vote, left the hall amid renewed cries' of "resign!"' "Clear out!" Much indignation Is expressed In Par liamentary circles at the publication of the report made by War Minister Rud iger by General' 'Bader, commandant of the Bialystok garrison,, reiterating the charges that the Jews were responsible for the massacre by' throwing bombs and firing revolvers at Orthodox processions and attacking government building? after order had been restoped. General Bader also characterized the conduct of the troops as splendid .and says .the newspaper accounts of ' the excesses are deliberate lies. , . The Novoe X'remya is conducting a cam paign for the exculpation of the local au thorities of Bialystok, and today printed an enumeration of the revolutionary crimes committed there this year, filling two columns and detailing three separate cases as Justification for the racial feeling. 1 - .

Ton can not make sweet butter in a foul, unclean churn. The stomach serves as a churn in which to agitate, work up and disintegrate our food as it is being digested. If it be weak, sluggish and foul the result will be torpid, sluggish liver and bad, Impure blood. The ingredients of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery are just such as best serve to correct and cure all such de rangements. It is made up without drop of alcohol In its composition; chem ically pure, triple-refined glycerine being used instead of the commonly employed alcohol. Now this glycerine is of itself a valuable medicine, instead of a deleteri ous agent like alcohol, especially in the cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia and the various forms of indigestion. Prof. Flnley Ellingwood, M. B., of Bennett Medical College, Chicago, says of It: "In dyspepsia it serves an excellent pur pose. It is one of the best manufact ured products of the present time in! its action upon enfeebled, disordered stomacha; especially If there is ulceration or catarrhal gastritis (catarrhal inn&mmatkxtof stomach). U is a most efficient preparation. Glycerine will relieve many cases of pyrosis (heartburn) and excessive rastric acidity. It is useful In chronic intestinal dyspepsia, especially the flatulent variety, and to certain forms of chronic constipation, stimulating the secre tory and excretory ttmctioosof the kitestmiri glands. When combined, injust the right propor tions, with Golden Seal root. Stone root, Black Cherrybark, Queen's root, Blood root and Mandrake root, or the extracts of these, as In Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, there can be no doubt of its great efficacy in the cure of ail stomach, liver and Intestinal disorders and derange ments. These several ingredients have the strongest endorsement In all such cases of such eminent medical leaders as Prof. B. Bartholow. M. D of Jefferson Med ical Oolletre. Chicago: Prof. Hobart A Bare, M.

I called in three dootors, they all claimed they could help her, but she continued to grow worse. Her body was a mas3 of sores, and her little faca. was being eaten away; her ears looked as if they would drop off. NeighboVs advised me to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and before I had used half of the cake of Soap and box of Ointment the sores had all healed, and my little one's face and body were as clear as a new-born babe's. ', I would not be without it again if it , cost five dollars, instead of seventy-five cents, which is all it cost us to cure our baby, after spending many dollars ' on doctors and medicines without any benefit whatever."
