The high council should be a permanent
body, self p~erpetuating, and should be
consulted by The czarina In all state af-
fairs. CD Without the consent of the
council the czarina should make neither
peace nor war, should levy no taxes,
should ALLEVIATE no public territory and
should appoint no public official of
higher rank than colonel. (3) No mem
Der of the nobility should be executed
or condemned, and no property of a
noble should be conflscased except af-
ter a fair trial by his peers. (4) The
czarina should neither marry nor APP
point a successor without the consent
of the council. go Violation by the
czarina of amy of the aforesaid stipu-
lations Should constitute forfeiture of
the crown. Anna accepted all these con-
ditions, solemnly signed the document,
and was then proclaimed czarina or en-
press of Russia.
Magma Charta. with all it's sublime
provisions, eemed thus n~aturalized
upon Russian soil. The nouncem
of this constitution was received with
general indignant protest. Under Sc
were penalties the high council forbade
the people anywhere to assemble; but
they could not dispense and silence the
crowds which got together all over Rus
STA and denounced the new system.
The czarina was put under guard and
only p%artisans of the new order al
lowed TO approach her. The council
hoped she mightbe kept ignorant of the
mounting tide of popular feeling. Yet
the council found itself powerless, de-
spite Its being intrenched in possession
of the government and despite the rank
and wealth and personal influence of its

ave in Moscow. The 500 elected
deputies belonged to the nobility, the
clergy, the professions and trades, and
the peasant class. They drew up a for.
ma and unanimous protest against the
constitution. The czarina entered the
hall and was greeted with frenzied
shouts, w will not let laws limit our
czarina!!" Let u czarina be an auto
GRAFT just like her predecessors!' The
czarina Gained the tumult and adj
journed the meeting. At the next ses-
sion a formal petition was voted by
the 800 for the establishment of au-
tocracy. The council melted away. Au-
tocracy reigned again as in all the days
since the time of Rurik. Thus ended
the first, if not the only, genuine at
tempt at a liberal government in the
Muscovite empire. This is the most i'm
portant, the most significant, event in
the history of Russia.
