tion meets inspired with the most noble and philan
thropic motives, to denounce the crimes THAI are
committed BY public robbers and murdererS and
where Is the man who can refuse TO admit the JUS.
tice of such denunClaiOnS J. too, believe, IN re-
Spoct to the moral character OF murder and OF rob

Now, when the Peace Association animated rs |
have said by the most noble and phllaulhroplc prn-
cipes, meets, and looks aroundtO see how human life
may be securcd-ior one OF the sacred principles OF
that association is InylOlablilty OF human lie-when
1t examines the statistics Of life in the countries Of
the world il will see that IN Russia under an Also
lutist government, the average duration OF human
life is only twenty five years, whereas in Engandl
is forty years, and III the inhed States, though
unhealthy III great part because new country, 1t is
thirty FIVE years. With this comparison before 1t!
seen that IN Russ Ia owing TO the condition Of the
people, which is not happy because not free, and
therefore cannot freely develop even Its material
force and personal welfare, every year 25O0OOO per-
sons die, whereas. II the average length OF human
life were the same in free England, the amount
of deaths III year would not be more than 100000
and thus 1t Is proved that 100000 human lives are
annually sacrificed to the Moloch of AbSolutsm,more
than perishodi III any warwhch history mentions then
believe the Peace Association, logically enorcedby
regard 10 the nviolabty OF human life, will pass
resolution saying that they wish peace because they
consider that human life should be nviolable, and
therefore they humbly petition the Parliament and
the Government that a nation may not be numbered
