Some Russians Think Their Government
Quite Endurable.
Somewhat chagrined that the censor cut
out Of my telegram yesterday certain words,
amounting 10 over fourth of the whole mes
sage, went TO call on friend, and in his ho-
tel / saw at luncheon a Russian officer whom
1 first met Just outside Constantinople in
company with Gen. Skobelef, says a writer
in the London Chronicle. After greetings,
my friend-who speaks English as well as
SkobelefT himself-presently adjourned to my
rooms. and we had chat about old times
and old friends never again 10 bo seen in the
flesh. l learned that he is en- retraite-that
is TO say, retired from the service.
In due course, l opened my little grievance
about the censor, and found my friend, an as
sentially broad-minded man. prepared to hold
that in the present state OF society censor
ship is absolutely necessary TO prevent worse
consequen ces-a censorship both outward and
inward why" said he had we press as
free-handed as yours, or thatin America--"
Here i interposed deprecating observation
that we in England are not yet quite so free
(and easy as Cousin Jonathan. II say, had
we a press as free-handed as yours, we
should in a year have a revolution, which
would be crushed, and in five years more
another. which would be in this sense success
iul, that it would lead to carnage and anarchy,
and then"
..Red ruin and the breaking up of laws"
quoted.
"Then some strong man would rise. like
Skobeleff, perhaps a leader of the revolt. who
would found another aristocracy, not so
benevolent as ours often is. 1 can assure you
that many OF our princes only wish they could
see their way 10 a constitution in your sense;
but see now the late emperor (and here my
friend crossed himself in the Greek fashion
that is, from right to left) was rewarded for
his liberality by lot of young fellows who
wanted TO 90 fast"
And then he went on about the advantages
Of protection till State had succeeded in
building Cp industries; the advantages Of
compulsory service as training for their own
benefit the manhood of a nation. and other
views, with which the British public has been
made familiar through the magazines + or
some years And then he burst out with an
Indictment OF free countries in general and
England in particular.
Il was in England bur two years ago" he
went on, 1.-THE year Of my retirement. What
did 1 see? The extremes OF luxury and pow
erty. In no part Of Russia can you show me
greater extrayagancel and greater misery.
Your people. / am told, get meat oftener than
ours Are they better for II. do they look bet
ter, are they more manly, are they more will
ing 10 fulail and take their share ia the desti-
nies of their country? Our peasants work
hard and taxes are high: but except in the
big towns there is always enough 10 eat. and
for necessary clothing, and we are doing
more than you give US credit for Ia educating
the coming generation"
