plead our salvation. Refuse not thine
aid. and raise thy people from their
tomb. Give them means Of working
out their own destiny. Rescue them
from intolerable Official domination;
throw. down the wall that separates;
free thy people; order that they may
rule the country with thee; create for
thy people the happiness wrenched
from us, leaving us nothing but sorrow
and humiliation.
I'VE pray your Majesty graciously to
receive our demands, which are in
spired by a desire for your Majesty's
and our welfare, and the consciousness
of the necessity of escape from an intoi-
erable situation. Russia is too great and
her needs are too varied and numerous
for officers only to rule. National rep
resentation is indispensable, as only
the people themselves know the coun-
try's real need.
Refuse not thy aid, but order a con-
vocation of representatives OF all
classes. including workmen. Let all be
free and equal in the elections and to
this end permit the election of a con-
stituent assembly by general secret
ballot. That Is our chief demand, in
which all else centers. 1t is the sole
balm for our wounds, which will other
wise bring US death.
ONLY TWO PATHS OPEN.
"a single measure, however, will not
heal all our wounds. Therefore we ac-
quaint you frankly and openly, on be-
half of the whole Of the Russian work.
ing classes, as to father with our
further demands"
After making these demands the petit
ton concludes as follows:
These, sire, are our principal needs,
satisfaction whereof can free Russia
from slavery and misery, make her
prosperous and enable workmen to or
ganize In defense of their interests
against the capitalist exploitation and
official robbery which are sitting the
people. Order and swear they shall be
satisfied and you will make Russia
happy and glorious and inscribe your
name forever in the hearts of the peo-
pie, but. should you repulse our
prayer, we shall die<in this square be-
fore your palace. We have nowhere
else to go. Only two paths are open
to US, either toward liberty and hap
piness or to the grave. Should our lives
serve as holocaust for suffering RUS

but shall bear 1t willingly

WHY DOES

that's the principal thing
for a baby. If its food lacks
