PRINCE kURoPoTKIN's HOPES

II is significant that the veteran
Russian agitator and democrat, Prince
Kuropotkin, supports the government
In this war on the express ground
that, whatever the issue, "the Russian
military autocracy will not gain, but
all progressive and liberalizing forces
will be immensely strengthened" He
cites the promise of autonomy to Po-
land, and states that "a great Nation
al conference Of all the Zemstvos is
to be held in Moscow entirely unop-
posed by the government" And he
looks for concessions to Finland, in
the Caucasus and to the Jews.
II would be interesting to know the
specific grounds of this optimism. APP
parently II is shared in Russia,
whence the information of the prince
is intimate and extended. It can
hardly rest on the record of the past,
which is full o. blasted hopes and
broken pledges. On the other hand,
II may be said generally that the
autocracy in Russia never was In such
serious and comprehensive peril as II
now is, and periods of peril have been
followed heretofore by some radical
changes. The war of the Crimea was
confined to the shores OF the Black
Sea. The fall of Sebastopol was the
prelude to the emancipation OF the
serfs. The war with Japan was waged
in China and the adjacent seas. De.
feat was followed by the concession
Of Duma, which, with all its limita.
tons, retains vital organization.
In a general way the consciousness
OF danger makes the Cars govern
ment feel the need ofaoyalty in the
people which oppression shps and

And the waving fronds tempered the

Brought rest and peace from the heat

The garden OF roses and cinnamon
Distilled perfume when the days we're
done.
And the bul-buls song the night
breeze bore
To the lutte and either within the door.
Oh. life was one endless halcyon day,
No thought Of trouble did aught con
