Such is the description, given by his
prison friend, Volkhovsky, of Peter
Alexeyev, the weaver, who, born an II.
literate peasant in a village of the
Smolensk province, taught himself at
the age of 16 or II to read and write.
Becoming familiar with the revolu-
tionary literature of Russia, he Joined
the propaganda movement, and at the
age Of 20 was already working in II
with all the ardor Of novice.
His plan was to travel from one
weaving mill to another, spending
enough time in each to inoculate his
fellow-workmen with the microbe OF

captured in Moscow. At the trial he
made a speech which is memorable In

when the st. Petersburg newspapers
were permitted to publish long &C
counts Of the assassination OF Won
Plehve. Yet In one respect the EN-.
barge of the autocratic system upon
news still remains. 1t continues to be
impossible in Russia to publish bio

and their doings as, therefore, the |
task Of supplying such information |
falls exclusively upon the under |
ground" press, clandestine literature |
obtains circulation, even among the |
official classes, which the very prohi- |
bition of 1t makes literally enormous.
One of the classic incidents Of the
revolutionary movement in Russia is
that associated with the name of
Vyera Sassulich, for, though there had
been acts of revolutionary violence be-
fore her time, there was something in
her act and its conditions that entitle
her to be called the pioneer Of the
modern phase of terrorism in Russia.
And when, in February, 1878, she took
upon herself to punish Gen. Trepov,
the chief of St. Petersburg police, for
his cruelty to a student whom he had
under detention, the whole of non-of-
fetal Russia hailed the act. not only
with applause, but also with delight.
The Russia of the seventies came
within an ace of convincing the sub
jects of the Car that they were born
slaves and must remain SO. In 1874

were brought for trial, while about
seventy.three died, went mad or COM
mitted suicide.
AS the years went on, administrat-
i've tyranny grew In severity; stu
dents protests were crushed with re-
voting barbarity; oppression in the
prisons gave rise to hunger strikes.
For while the instigator of these
abuses, Gen. Mesentsey, head Of the
state or secret police, was enabled to
pursue his plans for roofing out the
widespread disaffection which pre-
vailed. But in 1878 he was warned
that II the government took the life
OF Kavalsky, a revolutionist then un-
der arrest at Odessa, his own would
pay the forfeit. Kavalsky was shot,
and two days later the sentence of
the revolutionists against Gen. Mes.
