These are no fancy dialogues. They
ore scraps of conversation heard the
other doy at a tea party on a house
boat on the Neva. We were a very
small circle drinking tho convention
tea, and I have set down tho above
specimens of the talk without substan
tial change. Thus the state Implant
seeds of exasperation In numberless
educated families; for tho great ma
jority of these condemned citizen are
mostly wholly Innocent, or their trans
gression consists of some youthfu'
folly which no civilized stato thinks
of punishing. Such Is tho case In Rus
sia Itself, while in Finland a well or
ganized, civilized commonwealth is be
Ing ground to powder; and through tho
confiscation of their church property,
the Armenians have lost the means of
elevating themselves.
Besides all this are the annoyances
a lower kind. A Jew In a prominent
social position, whose anterooms were
haunted by many an excellency, moves
from the province of St. Petersburg
his son has distinguished himself at
school, and his father wishes to have
him continue his studies at the capital,
It can’t be done. The Jewish per
centage of pupils is already rechcd.
The father succeeds, by means of In
fluential conenctlons. In having his son
accepted, but he despises und curses a
stato that compels a citizen to pursue
his most legitimate alms only by un
derhand methods. A great Jewish
financier wishes to buy a piece of
ground adjoining his country house, but
It lies partly in a parish where Jews
are not alolwed to own land,
course, he gets his way by means of
‘Influence’; but what feeling can he
cherish towards a government which
holds fast to the profound principle
that the Jewish ownership of land, be
yond a certain arbitrary line, is dan
geroua to the state, but which la quite
willing to sacrifice this principle In the
case of a rich and Influential man?
Examples of Finnish Hatred.
“A week ngo I was on one of the
quiet, dark Finnish lakes. On the
steamer were two young ladles, Fin
nish students, with white caps above
their bright faces. ‘Do you speak Rus
sian,’ I asked. ’Nobody speaks Russian
in our country.* ’But you learn It at
school?* ’Yes, but we don’t speak It.’
And the younger one breaks In: ’Be
cause we don't want to; because we
hate Rusla!' And Finland begins right
at the doors of 8L Petersburg.
“Another example: You are In a
company with friends; one draws two
printed documents from his pocket.
Two secret proclamations—ono from
the democratic group and one from the
Armenians. The latter Is capital*—
and all these good Russians listen with
great delight to the unsparing attacks
of the Armenians upon the Russian
government. What causes the great-
j j eat Indignation among the brightest
> young x**ople Is the news—sometimes
[ J Invented—that students, perhaps a<-
(J qualntnncea, have been punished with
) the knout, or thnt women and young
[ J lsdlee have been maltreated In prison.
I must dose the list, else I should And
there the country 'population even
lted, out of love for hearth und
e, against the levy of troops. Fil
ed people—one can say, without
ptlon—condemned the policy which
led to this unfortunate war. Of course,
nitons that, they draw differ,
nail number patriotism pre-
iomihates: ‘My country, right or
rang! First let us conquer.' In the
ieantlme, they postpone the struggle
for liberation at home. The great ma
jority, however, place the realization
of civilizing ideals above national
prestige und see In every defeat of
their own armies a hopeful step to
ds the final bankruptcy of the pres
ent noxious system. What a situation,
where good Russians see the welfare
of their country in the victory of Jap
anese armsl Everybody, however. Is
agreed that this war la the most
vincing proof of tho rottenness of the
present regime—tho incarnation
which again was Plehve.
Diminutive Plehves in Office.
The Plehve system finds its decided
defenders In the educational bureau
cracy which lives like a parasite from
the system itself, and in the unprlnci
pled bureaucratic struggles for position.
Every one of the lattre la a diminutive
Plehve, who, in case of a change, fears
most for his power and—in contrust
with PlehVe, who was never caught
taking bribes—his 'shady' sources of
Income. The eulogists of this system,
however, are only the half-educated
rich who—In Moscow out of pig-head
ed ignorance, In St. Petersburg out of
court flunkeyism—assert that the unto
ward and Intolerable phnses of Rus
sian life are the only possible expres
sion of Russian individuality. These
two elements do not count—not even
tho Moscow type. The real supporters
of the uystem are the broad masses of
the people; not that the population
feels that it is made happy by such a
regime, but that it is still completely
passive, and, in spite of all its suffer
ings, cannot be roused to action against
this system. The educated independ
ent duanes stand in sharp opposition to
it, whether they bo so-called conserva
tives, liberals, members of the zems
tvos, domocrats. social-democrats, or
revolutionists of the dead.* The oppo
sition dlflers as to means and ends, not
In their resistance to present-day con
ditions. These conditions are main
tained by tho bureaucracy, the organ
ized power; and no such attack can yet
be mado upon them, because the Rus
sian orthodox masses—as long as they
persist in unmoved apathy—scarcely
count In comparison with the Finns,
Poles, Jews, Armenians, and, in part,
the Little Russians.
"It Is true that there is, especially
In tho west and in the Industrial re
gions. a laboring population awakened
to political activity—a fact that gnve
Plehve occasion for reckless persecu
tion. There are, In the centre of the
country and in the south, a few gov
ernments with a discontented peasant
population; but this discontent Is not
directed consciously ugalnst the exist
ing system of government. The peas
ants wuut more land, because they are
starving; and when they ore told thnt
tho Czar has given them the adjacent
land, but that bribed officials ore keep
ing it back In favor of the great land-
owners they attack the latter as well
as the police authorities. After they
have been sufficiently flogged and bay-
onetted they are willing, without
sentrnent, to resume their former life
of misery. The laboring population,
in part, Is also starving, In consequence
of an Indqatrial crisis brought about
by the war. This causes great trouble
for the Russian government, which
with shrewd foresight, transports as
many of tho unemployed as possible,
at public expense, into the rural gov
ernments of the east.
“But It appears that, for the present,
the business depression Is overesti
mated. The starving peasantry and
tho awakened laboring population enn
become dangerous at some futuro time,
but tho probability Is that all thne
germn of opposition, which alone could
givo the Intellectual classes practical
support among tho people, can at pres
ent be trodden down without difficulty
by tho disciplined ranks of the sol
dlery—by the power of the Russian
people, well-drilled, without a will of its
own. and without Qne political thought.
Whether conditions would remain so
if many defeated nnd demoralized regl
ments should return from the Far East
can be decided only by one who has
observed the effect of recent defeats
upon the Russian army. Unvarnlsh
ed letters, smuggled through from the
seat of war, permit as yet no prcdlc
tion of this kind.
Assassination a Confession of Weak
ness.
"Two things can be accordingly
Stated: All cool observers of Russian
conditions ore agreed that the assassi
nation of Plehve, like previous svsnts
of this kind. Is not a sign of tho
strength of the opposition, but of Its
weakness. Inasmuch as the educated
minority still despairs of bringing
about an improvement, single Indlvbl
uals (there are no large groups of con
splrntors) seize the bomb as the last
resort of extreme pessimism. Individ
uals In this world of wretched Injustice
want at least to make an example, as
a loud protest, whore every other form
of protest In legitimate assemblies
tho people and In tho legitimate news
paper press Is prohibited—nay, even .
private conversation, can become dan
geroua. And, again: Plehve was not
specially monstrous phenomenon
Russian political life. He wns rather
the most striking expression of that
life, and only by reason of his peculiar
Intellectual make-up, an especially re
pulaive one. Still he was not an In
llvldual phenomenon In the sense that
ippenrnnce means the disap-
i* of his system. Ills death can,
therefore, bring about some moderation
In details, for not everybody's hand is
ao powerful and so unfeeling as his was.
But the crushing nightmare which op
presses thinking Russia, the number-
loss cases of Injustice will remain ns
long an an unwatched, and therefore
corrupt, officialdom reign us the many-
headed autocrat of Russia.
"Plehve won that arrogant clique of
men who preach, front conviction or
for mere sham, the doctrine of Russian
stagnation and Russian uniformity.
Whether Plehve regarded his struggle
agninst Finland and the Armenians so
absolutely Indispensable to his system
appears to ine very doubtful; 1
too clever to conjure up difficulties
i itool/. Hi di-i this, nevertheless,
In order to recommend himself
moat Russian of the Russians, among
those narrow-minded enthusiasts who
want to stamp out of our gigantic em
pire everything thnt has nn Independ
ent existence, everything that lifts
itself through moral qualities, enter
prise and Intelligence above the low
level of Russian national culture—Pro
testantism, Catholicism, Jews. Finns,
Armenians, or whatever else raised Its
head as an insult to Russian uniform
ity. Thus, through Plehve, the reign
of the present czar, himself so inno
cent and sensitive In his feelings, has
become one of the most frightful pe
riods In modern Russian history.
“In spite of his omnipotence, how
ever, Plehve nnd his system were nl-
rnedy morally bankrupt before his
death. Arithmetic demolishes It.
course, thousands can be Imprisoned
by the police, hut who can guarantee
that there shall not be a dozen left
over to attempt an assassination?
And why should not one of these
ceed? One did. Plehve In his narrow
mindedness regarded Russia as if It
were un Isolated country, hut Russia
Is connetced in a thousand ways with
the life of the world nnd cannot wholly
ignoro this world beyond Its borders.
Plehve wns able to silence Russia, but
not the outside world with Its criticism,
because his rivals nnd his enemies used
against him In court, where every
body intrigues against everybody else.
Plehve wns therefore compelled to ex
tend to foreign countries his domestic

Czar Lacking in Initiative for Reform.
"That the czar should hav
lutlon to break with the present system
quite Improbnble. He lacks the ini

lend Into new pnths. It will not be out
predilection for police absolutism
that he will retain It, but out of thnt
weakness nnd timidity which clenv

thnn what 1s new, the reach of which
lies beyond his mother wit. Indeed,
whoever shall be Plehve’s successor, he
will have to reckrtp with the weight of
actual developments which had flnnlly
proved too strong for the mighty
Plehve.
"The dependence of Russia upon the

The above quotation Is mudo from a
very remarkable book which has Just
been published in Germany under the
title of "Tho World-War," with the
significant sub-title. "German Dreams."
It Is not ti treatise nor nn essay, but a
politico-military romance, similar In
kind to the famous "Battle of Dorking"
of Oon. Chesnoy, nnd a host of other
work* which moro or less Intelligently

Hatred of England.
Tho book is not without literary val
ue; It shows knowledge and grasp in
the region of high politics; but it is In
Its message nnd its meaning, which
unmistakably adumbrate the unchang
ing and Ineradicable hostility of Ger
many to England, thnt its Importance
lies. It Is the spirit of rancor and hat- i
red toward this country which Informs !
the hook that makes It distinctly note- !
worthy, and renders It something for
nil patriotic Englishmen to rend, mark,

Nor Is Its author, August Niemann,
some obscure nobody; he Is nn officer
of high standing, well known at the
court of Snxony. He knows his sub
ject—so far us a subject of this sort
can be known—with characteristic
German thoroughness; the possibili
ties of strategy in India and elsewhere
lie wldo open to him; his acquaintance
with our navy nnd army In nil their

word, ho is a man well worth listening
