abundant experience, and however
strange they may seem to US in lang
uage and methods, they are not at all
ignorant.
In the midst Of the old autocratic
national government of Russia, the
worst, the most corrupt and the most
oppressive known to man, the Russian
village system presented an example
of almost pure democracy. ~.
Everything about the affairs of the
village, except its relations to the
national government and the admins
tration OF the national systems of po-
lice and justice, was regulated by the
village in open town meeting.
Outside of the New England town,
we have nothing in this country that
equals it for democracy. e'}
~ 1t was in those little village repuu
lies that these men were trained in
the rudiments of democracy, public
affainrs, democratic machinery. There
they learned to make effective pub
tic addresses, to conduct legislative
business, to Judge proposals about
public interests. ~
For the last forty or fifty years the
villages have been electing dele
gates to district assemblies where the
concerns of larger areas were dealt
with and have thus had training in
representative government and a
broader outlook. -. -
1t is no wonder then, that men like
Tschaidse and Tseratelli, Skobeloff
and Tschernow, know exactly how to
preside over the council, how to carry
on it's business with accuracy and des-
patch. They have been doing some
thing of the kind whenever they
were not in prison or exile) for many
years. 80
: The Dismal Dopers never saw
meeting of the National Council.
That is why they are able to proceed
with their theory that it is composed
of very ignorant and unframed men
and everything it does must somehow
be bad.
But even if they had the least basis
for their mournful dreams, which
they haven't this would be mighty
bad time to be spreading them and ex-
aggerating them ~
Because whenever they do that they
are playing straight into the hands of
the wonderful German propaganda,
now putting forth every effort to fool
the allied countries into a truce mis-
named a peace. Therefore l think
that the next trip | had better tell

Enterprise Association:)
Russia is the Land of Terrible
Things, to BE.
No matter how careless you may
read your newspaper you must have
noticed that fact.
In Russia, according to some news
papers, everything is always going to
the bad.
One, day Hideous Anarchy rears its
Appalling Head. The next day the
troops arc about to revolt. The next
day Riga is about to fall. The next
day PetrOgrad is about to be evac-
uated. Finland is about to revolt.
The Russian army is about to flee In
disorder.
All is lost always. There isn't a
ray of hope.
II you were to turn back to the files
and rercad the dispatches of some
correspondents you would see that
since the day of the revolution every
stricken thing has been sodden in
gloom :of which the best that could
be said was that the condition today
was not quite so bad as it would be
tomorrow.
Nothing good has happened since
the car got the sw;ci Kick. Appar-
emily heaven is avGne!GC that act of
impiety by plunging the country every
day into lower abyss of ruin.
Disaffection" is spreading rapidly
among the soldiers. The Duma, the
only constitutional body in the coun-
try" has ceased to exercise any pow
err. and that means black despair.
Kerensky has been made dictator, but
no one will allow him to dictate, so
there is no hope there. The warning
factions in Russia are terrible. They
even have disputes. The conservative
elements are being overwhelmed by
the ferocious radicals. who plan to
eat everybody alive. The country is
hopelessly bankrupt; the rouble went
down another eighth Of a cent yester-
day and of course that means the col
lapse of Russia tomorrow. The an
archists have seized a palace today
and tomorrow will blow up everybody
All is lost.
And then there are the Ukrainians.
All, yes. The Ukrainians. We'll, if
there were nothing else to tinge all
