Nor need you invent this ideal;
it is the old, old ideal of all the
Russian folk; the ideal Of the re-
storation to the whole people-not
to the peasants only, but to the
whole people-of their natural and
just right to the land
To men unaccustomed to think
with their own minds this ideal
seems unrealizable, because it is
not a repetition of what has been
done in Europe and America. But
just because this ideal has no.
where yet been accomplished, it is
the true ideal of our day, and, more
it is the nearest ideal, and one
which, before it is accomplish in
other countries, should now be &C.
complished in Russia.
Wipe out your sin by good
deed; while you still have the
crying
power, strive to destroy the
ancient, crying, cruel injustice of
private property in land, which is
so wildly felt by the whole agricul-
tural population, and from which
will have the support of all the best
people-the so-called intellectuals.
You will have with you all true
Constitutionalists, who cannot but
see that before calling on the peo-
pie to choose representatives, that
people must be freed from the land
slavery in which it now lives.
The Socialists, too, will have to
admit that they are with you; for
the ideal which they set before
themselves-the naturalization of
the implements of labor-is attain
able first of all by the nationalist
ton of the chief implement of labor
the land.
The Revolutionists, too, will be on
your side, for the revolution which
you will be accomplishing by free
ing land from private ownership, is
one of the chief points in their pro-
gram. On your side, above all, will
be the whole characterization agrii
cultural peasantry, which alone rep
resents the real Russian people.
Only do what you, occupying the
place of government, are bound to
do, and, while there Is yet time,
make it your business to establish
the real welfare of the people; and
in place of the feeling of fear and
anger which you now encounter,
you will experience the joy Of close
union with the hundreds million
Russian people; you will know the
love and gratitude of this kindly
folk, who will not remember your
sins, but will love you for the good
you do it, as 1t now loves him, or
those who freed it from slavery.
Remember that you are not czars,
ministers, senators and governors,
but men; and having done this, in
place of grief, despair and terror,
you will find the joy of forgiveness
and of love.
But that this may happen, you
must not undertake this work SUI

any man not over 165 pounds in
weight.
Juno says she began wrestling
when school girl of IS. She liked
it so we'll that she has kept at it
ever since, despite the objections of
her parents. She wrestles in
Graeco-Roman style, and so far has
had an easy victory over all the
women who have dared to face her
on the mat. She has also been
successful in most of her matches
against men.
Strangely enough Juno Is not at
