BELATED PROMISES.

d ERHAPS THE SUSPENSION of
L active hostilities in Russia is due
in some measure to the promises
made in proclamation issued
Wednesday by the new governor
general of St. Petersburg The
proclamation, to which the name
of the minister Of finance is also ap-
pended, declares that the emperor has
directed the framing OF laws for the
benefit Of the striking workers and for
a system of state insurance that will
afford them protection in old age and
disability. The proclamation further
sets forth that the strikers have come
to their present straits by following
unwise leaders and by accepting inju-
dicious counsel.
We doubt IL the strikers will be con-
tent to wait very long. There is not a
great deal of hope for them in the
promises, anyway. even if they ere all
fulfilled. The adoption of measures
calculated to make the lives of work
ingmen more bearable viii amount to
nothing unless the authorities see fit to
enforce them. And as long as the pow
er of enforcement is vested i'm persons
inimical to the toilers there can be no
guarantee of a betterment in condi-
tions.
Besides, in their petition the strikers
asked specifically for a constitutional
government. They represented that
nobody could know the needs of the
people as the people themselves know
them. This being an acknowledged
truth, they asked for a government in
which the people may have some voice
No promise that remotely approaches
this solution is made in the governor
generals proclamation The people are
told, in effect. that the power that has
been crushing them is the only power
competent to look after their interests
The insinuation that the leaders OF
the strikers are evil-disposed persons
who have deliberately led their follow
ers into a useless revolt against the
government Will hardly be received
with favor Most of the strike leaders
are men whose patriotism cannot b.
questioned. Father Gopon, for instance
had everything to gam by siding with
the government. everything to lose by
allying himself with the strikers. THIS
same thing is true OF other leaders. anC
the very fact that the government i:
now willing to make at least part "a
concessions is sufficient evidence thai
the strikers are gaining ground.
