RUSSIA'S " OUTLAW” PRESS ON THE PROSPECTS OF
REVOLT. -
Among the illegal and
"outlawed "
organa (now published on the continent of Europo in the Russian language and smug- gled into the Cer's dominions for clandestine circulation among the workmen of St. Petersburg, Moscow, Odessa, and other cities, la the Iskra. It is printed in Geneve and is the organ, more particularly, of the Russian social-democratio labor party, The efforts of the Russian authori ties to prevent the entry into the Muscovite world of copies of the Istru can scarcely bo successful if recent statements by Herr Bebel in the Reichstag are to be relied upon. The police are anid to find innumer. ablo copies of it in their raids upon work men's meetings in the large manufacturing centers. To a quito different category must be assigned the Opvobozhdenie, an "outlawed organ now published in Paris, altho it made its appearance from Stuttgart, The appeal of the Osvobozhdeniu is to the educated and more or less aristocratic révolutionary olomonts of the Sonia Kovalovsky type. It is noted for the liter ary quality of the Russian in which its Bentiments are conveyed to its large but select circle of readers, altho, detection in the perusal of it would have serious conse quences wherever the Czar's jurisdiction extends. Somewhat less..'intellectual' but vory important in the revolutionary cause is the Razaviel, omanating likewise from Geneva and understood to have been cited by Mr Pobiedonestsoff as an instance. of the depths of irreligiosity to which a Russian can descend when he has lost, his faith
These organs, and many others whicle
could be named, have one thing in coinmon
- absoluté confidence in the speedy
triumph of the revolutionary movement.
The Iskra nud its outlawed contemporarios assure us that the Western world has been 1000 quite misled regarding the prospects of revolution within the Czardom, It cecurs to the Iskra to point out that no revolution has ever enlisted tho services of any nation as a whole. There are always, it thinks, the active spirits, opposed by the reactionary
masses of the people whose course, must be elements, between the two being the

and Moscow cohorts now rallying-for the sako of sweet morsela, rubles, and bottles of vodks-under 'the political banner. Inscribed extirpation of revolt, "and" "tho destruction of reactionary sedition,' This is to them the highest form of appeal, it is imperial compliment, the most grateful of all kinds of cominondation.
But the menacing autocratio chorus of the twentieth century is as cowardly as was the terrible Czar of the sixtoonth
century.
Summoning the polico. 'to a stern moral songe of duty' and 'to a con sciouences of thoir oficial responsibility.co throne, altar, and country,' and ondourag ing the bando of patriots,' from the consors who sell themsolves nutright to the bureaucratic functionaries of the Russian League, the autocracy throws down the white flag in the form of tho ruscript issued in the name of Bulygin (Ministor of tho Interior).
A black band and a white dag! Is it possible to have any faith in the white flag which floats over the Baku murderers and the Kurak sanguinaries For this white flag is not a harbinger of peace but an ambush of mercenaries, Against thin atbush we must summon all our strength
and turn our weapons.
For the white flag is not merely an-am- bush. It denotes not only a snare, hot only a rear attack by the whole binelt band of organized autocrisy The white fing of the Buly.in rescript is a symbol of the cowardico and weakness of the autoerney. and, na auch, it is a promise to Sy of fina! and comploto victory. It tulis of our own strength, of-the-invincible strength ~ the liberating movement,
It will suffico merely to fall with all this -strofigth upon the tottering autocracy, and it will collapso benonth the pro sure of the hugo wave of Russian solidarity and he- neath the weight of its own imbocility. But in the application of this pressure, if wo wish to avoid any other kind of pres eure, it is impossible to delay.'
The revolution is not waiting. It says in the clearest fashion to those who stand abova: If wo can not bond the gods on high we will stir the depths of Acheron beneath. There has buen revolution that hesitated, but this time the hesitation can not be for long. With the Acheron of the laboring masses in the citica the revolution got into touch and subsided on the historical day in last January. But what if, this time, the revolution stirs against the autocr-: acy the depths of rural life? Russian revolu- tion has a magio word for this purpose. It
is the simple and effective wordland. '
It unifies and embraces rural Russia.

The autocracy, not wishing to yield to public opinion, as in the case of the acts and words of Father Capon, brings tho Czar face to face with the workmen. Au tocracy not wishing to yield to the workers, revolution will bring it into conflict with the peasants.

On the other hand, gravo" doubts are expressed about Kwangtung, inasmuch as; in the southern province, the moneyed classes are lethargic. Howevor, an appeal has been made to them not to allow themselves to bo outrun by the north.
This matter furnishes another example of the way in which the Chinese allow themselves to become entangled-apparent ly inextricably entangled--when dealing with outside nations, whereby she loses face, opportunity, and capital.,

and they had undoubtedly done wonders | Rainhate, American cruiser, for Manila. in onch caso.
When my youngest girl asked for them, therefore, I let her take a bottle of the pills, and shio was decidedly better. With two more battles all the listlessness and and weakness vanished. She can run up down stairs without giddiness or shortness of breath, and is now a different girl alto gether. Three years ago her older sister was growing fast, and suffered from fro- quent fainting fits. She took Dr Willian Pink Pille, however, and derived great
benefit.'
This second daughter, Miss Mabel Sex- ton, a bright, intelligent young lady, was also seen by the reporter. She said :-
'I was thoroughly run down with Aponia through outgrowing my strength. I was excessively wenk, and often fainted. As Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had previously done my oldest sister much good, I tried them. I found the pills a splendid tonic, and my strength returned. Three bottles toned me up, and since then I have felt well and strong-in faot, never better in my life. I know that my p.esent excell. ent health is entirely due to Dr Williams. Pink Pille, for I have taken no other
medicine.'
