ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. s.-The official
Messenger prints this morning another
strongly worded appeal for confidence. 1t
bears Count Whites remarks, hints strongly
that the empire is threatened with dismem-
berment unless the people rally to its sup
port and draws attention to the different
character OF the representations with which
the government Is being besieged to quell
the exciting disorders in the country, some
OF them complaining of the zeal of the
troops and others OF their inaction, some
asking for military protection and others
for the entire removal Of the soldiers. ''Al-
though II is impossible In every case" the
note says. "to diagnose the true cause of
the conflicts, II is clear that their origin
generally Is the hostility aroused among
the different classes OF the population.
Those who arc dissatisfied with the mani
festo provoke the Indignation of those who
received It with gratitude, leading to at
tacks and counter-attaclss, all of which
could be avoided II the people only had con-
fidence that the reforms set forth in the
imperial manifesto will be executed. Dis
orders accomplish nothing and only delay
the reforms which are designed to give the
people a representative assembly in which
to settle their differences. The duty of every
in the pacihcation of the country.
Depends on Press.
I'm particular" the note concludes, "the
government reckons on the support of the
press which must understand that in the
present situation a union of the intellectual
forces Of the whole nation is necessary"
The tactics of the opposition, according
10 the Russ, will be peaceable. They will
take the form OF CONCENTRATIONS to COM
pei the government TO redeem its promises
and meet the wishes OF the people. The
paper claims that even Count Witte fails
to comprehend the FORCES with which he is
dealing, which consist of unions and
leagues representing organized dstrust."
Continuing. the Russ says:
There are no leaders, and Count Whites
efforts to bring individuals into his camp
are therefore unavaiiing. He summons
them under the Influence Of his personalltyi
