s.Cftixens, stand Up for Your
Rfghts!" LIS the Ringing Appeal.
The address Of the expiring douma to.
the Russian people is Enthusiastically a
call to arms. 1t goes no further openly
than to advise The people to withhold
honey and sokliers from the govern
ment, but between the lines Is to be
seen the tbent of revolution. The fol-
lowing is the text of the parliamentary
manifesto adopted at the meeting held
at yiborg:
To the People from Their Popular Rep
resentatives-Citizens of All Russia :
Parliament has been dissolved by ukase
of July y. You elected us as your rep
resentatives and instructed us to fight
for our country and freedom. In execu-
ton of your Instructions and our duty,
we drew up laws in order to insure free
dom to the people.
We demanded the removal of irraspon-
sible ministers who were infringing the
laws with impunity and depressing free
dom.
First Of all, however, we wanted to
bring out a law respecting the distribu-
ton of land TO working peasants and In
~volving the assignment, to this end, of
crown appanages, monasteries and lands
belonging to the clergy, and compulsory
appropriation of private estates. The
government held such a law to be mad
missible, and upon parliament once more
urgently putting forward its resolution
regarding compulsory appropriation par
lament was dissolved.
The government promises to convoke a
new parliament seven months hence. Rus
STA must remain without popular repre-
sentation for seven whole months, at a
time when the people are standing on the
brink of ruin, and industry and COM
MERGE are undermined, when the whole
country is seething with unrest and when
the ministry has definitely shown its in
capacity to do justice to popular needs.
For seven months the government will
act arbitrarily and will fight against the
popular movement in order to obtain a
pliable, subservient parliament. Should
It succeed, however. in completely sup
pressing the popular movement, the gov

forces there are reported to be on the
brink Of casting their lot with the
people.
From Warsaw disaffection among the
troops is reported. The Socialists have
issued infammatory proclamations, urg-
ing refusal to pay taxes or furnish re.
cruits, and calling for a revolution.
Sebastopol and Odessa are twin hot
beds of disaffection in southern Russia.
In Odessa the Jews are in q panic, fear
ing d massacre as the first outcome of
popular anger aroused by the dissolu-
ton Of parliament. AT midnight masses
Of citizens were moving through the
