The czar, teniperaiiiei'tallv ami i
stiuetively dramatic, may soon add to
his vc.lkn irohibitiou more important
political and social reforms.
Reformers in the diima are nnitci
and menacing. Although tiie jirogre--
sives urc-in the majority, itu renctior
aries are making determined efforts to
dissolve the Duma. Professor Milukort
leader oi the rn;ressives, has jjjy
assurance that if the diima is dissolvcl
it will meet again within a few weckj.
The results of these threats, if they
are carried out, are obvious. If the.
dniiia is dissolved, tho czar may havo
to put down n revolution as well as
fight tho Teutons. Germany has lung I
hoped that a revolution would cccnt.
the czar to coiicludc a desperate ami
disastrous peace.
A revolution is at hand. The tzar
apparently senses the danger, hut ban
not retired at its approach. Instead, "no
has advanced to meet it.
He has assumed open and personal
responsibility for the, army. Tnis may
mean that he will grant reficins. Tlicn

premiums, trebled its entertainment
and quadrupled the inducements to gol
the children to attend the fair. Tin
transportation lines in Oregon will
transport to and from an originating
point all exhibits offered by children

counting the requests, received from pa
trons of tho Oregon stute fair for a

people had made the Tcqucst. Someone
had evidently put up an endless chain
proposition and succeeded admirably.
-Mrs. J. W. lioberts, of Salem, a
daughter of a pioneer u! 18'iJ, con
vinced her husband that the better way
to enjoy the fair was to have a comfort
able cottage, and as a result .Mr. Hub
