BOLSHEVIKI-THE DANGER OF RUSSIA
By A. J. SACK
Director of the Russian Inform alton Bureau New York

The present political situation in
Russia can be presented in few
words. The country is passing thru a
crisis which is without doubt the grav-
est crisis in all Russian history. Not
a single party, but only strong coali-
tion of all the progressive forces can
save the country. Russia as a whole,
perfectly understands the situation
and demands a coalition cabinet. Re-
spending to this demand, Kerensky
formed the coalition cabinet.
But the crisis is not yet over. The
Bolsheviki are against the principle
Of coalition and demand that all power
be turned over to the councils of work
ingmen's and soldiers delegates. It
is not very probable that they will
finally yield to Kerensky's decision,
and therefore we may expect a con-
fiict between them and the provisional
government at almost any moment.
The history Of the Bolsheviki in Rus
sia, after the revolution, is history of
their steady growth. When Lenine
appeared in Russia, Immediately after
the revolution. it seemed that he with
his extravagant views had hardly any
following in the country. The situa-
ton has changed since then. The Boil
sheviki now control the Petrograd and
Moscow councils of workingmen's and
soldiers delegates; they control the
councils in some Of the provincial cit
les; they have very considerable
number Of seats in the democratic con-
ference. II the Bolsheviki are permit
ted to exist in the present-day Russia
as a legitimate. openly-acting political
power. we will see their strength
growing and growing. This is the
greatest danger which Revolutionary
Russia faces at the present time. The
rule OF the Bolsheviki in Russia. IL the
moment for such rule comes. will be

the other hand, the country would not
have been poisoned as it now is. The
monarchic system, in its practically
unlimited form, was dead in Russia
long ago, and decaying, poisoned all
the atmosphere around it.
The old regime, degenerated to such
figures as Soukhomlinoff, Rasputin and
Protopopoff, came to an end, leaving
the country in a state of such disor-
ganization that no government in the
world could have led it thru the enor-
nous difficulties better than the pro-
visional government did. The disor-
ganization Of transportation brought
hunger and cold to the Russian cities
and created an atmosphere in which
every kind of anarchistic agitation
could be successful. Lenine and his
followers with their slogan of imme-
diate peace, with their hatred for the
wealthy classes, with their plans for
the dictatorship Of the laboring class,
naturally could appeal more to the
suffering, comparatively uneducated
Russian masses, already exhausted by
the war and the crimes committed
against them by the old regime, than
the arguments of Socialist leaders like
Kerensky and Tseretelli who appeal
to the masses to stay in the war, and if
the cause Of the worlds democracy.
As / have said once before, Keren-
sky is not less a Socialist than Lenine,
but the difference between them is that
while Lenine would like to establish
the Socialist state almost Immediately,
Kerensky understands that an apple,
sweet and ready to be eaten in Oc-
tober, is sour and indigestible in June.
The Bolsheviki are the kind of revo-
lutionists who discredit the revolution
more than any counter-revolutionis
They are the kind Of Socialists" who
discredit the Socialistic cause more
than any direct enemy Of Socialism.
The rule Of the Bolsheviki in Russia
would mean an end to the Russian rev.
olution, an end to the Russian democ-
racy, would provoke the darkest polit-
ical reaction.
The rule of the Bolsheviki in the
near future is almost inevitable if they
be not eliminated from Russian life by
immediate decisive measures. Other
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-10-20

wise their power is liable to grow, and
will grow with the coming of winter,
with the hunger and cold threatening
almost every Russian home. The Boil
sheviki danger is like a cancer. If it
is not operated on in time it is bound
to grow until it reaches the vital or
gans and kills the patient.
The situation in Russia is critical
and dangerous, and the determination
of Kerensky in creating the coalition
cabinet is the bright spot in the situa-
ton. Pursuing this course, Kerensky
will have against him the Bolsheviki,
but with him will be entire Russia, at
least 95 per cent of the revolutionary
democracy still unaffected by the ter
rible disease, anarchy. A physical
clash between the Bolsheviki and the
forces supporting the provisional gov
eminent is almost inevitable, and un-
der the circumstances it need not Gre
ate fear. There are very few chances
that the Bolsheviki will suddenly un-
derstand the seriousness of the sit
uation and sincerely yield to the. pro-
visional government. Most probably
they will not do so, and therefore the
sooner the inevitable clash comes the
better for Russia, for Russian democ-
racy and for the great cause of the
worlds democracy.

almost death sentence for our coun-
try and the revolution.
The growth Of the Bolsheviki power
can be very well explained. The term,
Bolsheviki, was used for the first time
in 1903, when the Russian Social-Dem-
ocratic party split in two, and the ma
jority, led by Lenine, accepted this
name. Bolsheviki in Russian, means
"the majority" Until the present war
the Bolsheviki, including Lenine, really
represented part of the Russian So
cial-Democratic party and could be
recognized as Socialists of the Marx
ian school, differing from other Rus
sian Social-Democrats only on ques-
tions of tactics.
The war has changed Lenine and his
following remarkably. When Lenine
arrived in Petrograd and made his
first speech, one Of the prominent Rus
sian Socialists told him that the point
of view he, Lenine, represents has
nothing to do with Socialism, and is a
pure expression of anarchistic ideol-
ogy. This really describes "Bolshev-
ism," and explains its power in Rus
sia. The Bolsheviki are anarchists, il
not in theory, then in their feeling
about life and in their political prac-
tice. The ground for anarchy is fer
tile in Russia, and herein lies the sue
cess Of the Bolsheviki.
The sufferings of all the countries
involved in the present conflict are
enormous, but probably it is safe to
say that, aside from Belgium, no coun-
try has suffered so much as Russia.
To the usual sufferings imposed by the
war were added the terrible crimes of
the old regime. II monarchy in Rus
sia had died twelve years ago, during
the first revolution, it would have been
a natural death, and both sides would
have gained by it. The principle of
monarchy and the car himself would
not have been SO hated as now, and, on
