WHAT RUSSIANS ARE LIKE

From The Loldnn SPECTATOR.

OF the Russian as he would be after. say.
4 century Of freedom We know nothing. At
pr sent he is a man of pure white lineage
vide Charles PearSon'S rcma rkable testi-
IRONY on that puint-who for many hundred
wears has been subjected to Asiatic condi-
tions. which or many prominent points
have gr1vcly modified his character. No
white man. for example. is by nature in
clined to revel in obedience the ordinary
Russian now does, nor is there any other
white people in which the idea of indfvid-
Ial right * so imperfectly developed. Still,
something is known of the present Slav,
which is sufficient to give the attentive
glimpse Of his character as it is and will
probably remain. In the first place. it is
clear that he belongs to no branch of the
other great white families, but is a man of
Il separate breed. with it's own qualities and
powers. He Is SD unlike the Teuton that
the two races, though much bound togeth-
er by their historic fate. cannot learn to
tolerate each other. but entertain each for
each an acrid Scorn which. on occasion
given. frequently breaks out in open hos
tiity. He is not like tine Cet. though the
Frcnchman thinks he Is. being less absorb
Cd in himself. less addicted to lying to
himself and less dominated by the evil
passion of envy. He is also less logical,
and. even when good. less capable of that
strenuous probity which distinguishes the
good FrenChman. and is probably less the
PRODUCT of his heart than Of his mind.
Least of all Is the Russian like an English
man. being of all the great white races the
most receptive. the least impatient of CON
troll and the least inclined to seIf-depend-
ent individualism. He is. in fact. "A SIav,
of Il race by itself, the dominant note of
hlch Is singular power of sef-cOntrol.
Tho world dimy perceives this. and talks
Of the Russians obedience, his secr1tive-
ness. his endurance. his patience. his resg-
