THE RUSSIAN PROBLEM.

The murder of Grand Duke Sergius makes no
radical change in the Russian situation. 1t
merely intensifes all features OF it. There was
a reign of terror before This tragedy has made
it more terrible. There were arguments for
reaction in the fact that lawleSsness was ram
pant They are now strengthened. There was
embarrassment of the real friends of Russian
freedom arising from the crimes of the party
of action" 1t is now materially increased
There was a rational, temperate, sincere move
ment toward liberal reforms, not because of,
but rather in spite of, the madness of the mob
and the wickedness of the assassin. Let us
hone that, too, will be promoted by this abom-
Unable outrage. For it is to be believed that in
that direction safety lies perhaps only in that
direction.
The occurrences of the last year have re-
vealed the Russian problem in its true light
They have shown the vanity Of the old boasts
of Russian strength. Either Russia was or was
not prepared for the war with Japan. If she
was prepared for it, or thought she was, we
now see how worthless was her preparation
If on the other hand, she was not prepared
for 1t and did not expect it. we have a strlk-
ing illustration of the way in which a great
nation can be caught unprepared for war, and
q nation too, that has been making for years
greater prepare tons for war than any other in
the world The vanity has also been shown of
the boast that foreign war would silence do
nestle dissensions and unite the whole people
in enthusiasm for the imperial cause Dissent
has not been stilled. Discomfort has not been
aIayed On the contrary, all classes and grades
of reformers, from the highest statesman TO
the lowest bomb throwing criminal, have found
In Russa's foreign embarrassments an oppor-
tIInity for pressing the more vigorously their
domestic propaganda. Practically every impor-
tant forecast made by the Russian war party"
has come TO naught
1t is a trying and burdensome problem which
awaits the Cars solution. 1t is one from
which the stoutest and most experienced states
man might well shrink Yet it must be met
and it must be solved. The critical plight of
Kuropatkin and the butchery of Grand Duke
Sergius both cry aloud for speedy action of
some sort. Repression has been tried and found
wanting. Concession, as such, is not a thing
that oommends itself to the government. But
the placing of Russia in line with her neigh
bors in intelligence and liberty is something
that might be undertaken without loss Of dig
nifty. For such deed would be mercy and JUS
tee rolled in one, of which we might declare
IT'S mightiest in the mightiest; it becomes
The throned monarch better than his crown.
Repression might show the power of cruelty
and concession might betray weakness The
granting of the justice of civilization to the
Russian people would be a demonstration of
truly imperial strength.
