He Iives nrer a volcano.

The Gar OF all the Russias has evil
IDENTITY accustomed himself to the un-
certainty of life over mine of social
dynamite, His order to Durnovo, his
new minister Of the interior, directing
him to continue the iron-heeled policy
of the deceased Tolstoi, seems TO afford
evidence either Of nerve, callousness
or bulldog purpose to do or to die in
doing.
There is certainly little indication
in Russia OF the acceptability to the
intelligent people of Russia OF the
| present tyrannical rule; and it is
among this comparatively small class
of the Cars people that opposition to
! his methods of government is continu-
/ ally being fomented. The uueducated
Russian does not know that he is being
| despoiled OF privilege and right.
I Right upon the heels of the Cars
l order to Durnovo comes the announce
ment Of change in the place for the
entertainment of the Shah of Persia
\ because of Nihilistic threats. Instead
! of royal reception at St Petersburg
4 the Potentate will be taken to the pal
/ ace at Gatschina and there entertain,
ed. The Shah; If he is informed Of
/ this change, and the reason therefor,
| will not enjoy the festivities OF his
honor In Persia the dynamite con-
spirator is an unknown enemy, and
life is not so bitterly spliced for he
| Shah as it is for the Gar.
The present Alexander made great
mistake when he took the throne, in
not augurating more liberal policy.
He has left for successor the oppor-
tunty to be nobly generous that was
his when he assumed the crown. The
world is advancing, and Russia must
advance with it. Brains will never
yield to brute force, and until more
liberties are granted the Russian PEG
pie the Cars life will continue to BIZ
target for radical liberators. Wis
