For Is years he was an exile in Siberia, &c

were released finally, and reached Canadi
about six years ago. His followers almost
defy him, as they had his six great predecessorl
who ruled like the kings or prophets of oldi
during the time that the sect soiourned mi
Russia. During his long exile he became ai
firm convert to the theories of Tolstoy and l3i
years ago wrote an epistle TO his followers
which is made up chiefly OF passages borrowed
verbatim from Tolstoys Kingdom of God
Is Within You" and containing in particular
one long passage from that book-a quotation
OF Tolstoys translation of the Declaration OF
Sentiments which William Lloyd Garrison
drew up in 1888 for a Peace convention held in
Boston. This epistle is part OF the sacred lore
of the Doukhobors. II contains no acknowl-
edgmeut of the fact that IL was taken mostly
from Tolstoy. There probably are more people
in Assiniboia and Saskatchewan to-day who
can repeat the long passage from Garrison's
declaration than there are in the United
States who ever heard of 1t.

and these made themselves felt TO such an
extent before Verigin arrived in Canada that
at one time there was serious talk OF bundlng
up all OF the thousands OF Doukhobors and
shipping them out Of Canada-no one cared
much whittier. AT that time it was con-
sidered that the czar had played a colossal
joke on Canada by letting the coo odd Douk-
hobors leave his realm. and II matter

many Of the Doukhobor villages this
naked band were driven out by their
co-religionists and beaten with twigs
until the blood ran. At night In the
rain and snow and wind they clustered
into one heap and lay on the ground,
one on another, for warmth. Strange

were released all but ten Of these Is

These ten attempted another out

year there was another attempt at a

Verigin was in control and 1t amount

About the time that Verigin came
into the full powers Of leadership a
movement was set afoot to persuade
the government to take back the

agitation claimed that the community
had more land than 1t ever would be

holdings ought to be made available
