the highest human nobility: it is from
Konovalov that one should learn how
to live.
The "bosyaks" embodied Gorky's
challenge to accepted morality. But
the purpose of life was not yet clear
to Gorky himself and there shone be-
fore him no bright ideal. AS a result,
his view of life was vague and con-
fused and his heroes were often stilt-
ed They felt a tremendous urge to
deeds, to action of some sort and
hated apathy, but they did not know
how to make use of their energy, and
so this urge to turbulent activity fire.
quently became merely battling with
Iwind-mills.
True, it is often necessary to resort
to beautiful lies to bring cheer to the
detected. But then-what? Where
do the lies lead to and what do they
accomplish outside of temporary al
deviation? To such questions the in
Idividual with the iron will can give
no answer; he is incapable of lead
ing humanity out of it's rut. And so
with all his philosophy of the joy of
life, Gorky, outside of aphorisms, abb
Istractly clever talk and hymns about
''the madness of the bold" had Great

heart, but in his mind was no defi-

mite, compelling idea. "Man-how
proud it sounds" But what can man
by himself do to refashion life?
Because the "bosyaks" stood out
clearly from the rest of society by
their differentness, they had become
for Gorky means for expressing his
own exalted, essentially different
moods. And into the mouths of the
"bosyaks" he had put airy rhetorical
phrases that really conveyed subjec-
lively his own thoughts and opinions.
effectively the "bosyaks" symbol
lied the social ferment of the time.
Through these fanciful creations
there were for the first time rooted
in Russian literature heroes who were
bold, arrogant and merciless, who
could defend life and enjoy life with
strong emotions and desires. And in
this period of darkest reaction it was
only natural that such heroes should
draw to them the sympathies of all
progressive readers so that Gorky i'm
mediately assumed a position Of
honor in Russian literature of the
nineties, standing out among the
writers of the time as a real inno-
vator. And the interest in his work
subsequently grew even greater
when there was gathered the revolu-
tionary energy for the 1905 upheaval.
Through he had touched only casual

ly on the life of his time, Gorky had
made it clear that the abnormal con-
ditions of society are in complete con-
tradiction to the natural qualities of
the human character. And on the
minds of his readers even the abstract
call of Gorky's heroes to a struggle
for the liberation of the human per-
sonaHty had made an impression.
Thus Gorky with his narrow, confused
individualism helped in a concrete
way to revolutionize the masses.
But being permeated with the de-
sire to refashion life, Gorky could not
content himself for long with his
"bosyaks," and with his play, Lower
Depths" there entered a new phase
into his creative work. Here the ro-
mantle veil is torn from the ''bos-
yaks"; they are presented in new
light, stripped of all artificial color
and establishment. And against the
lovely lyrical soul-effusions of the
aimless vagabonds and proletarian
buns was placed the "hard truth of
life" The old romantic dreamings
had evaporated; Gorky turned to a
broader envisagement of life and set
himself the task of creating the So
Geological novel. That he was ade-
quate to the task had already been
shown in his great works, "Foma
Gordeyev" and Three

The miners of southern Illinois are
well on the way to join the national
movement for the preservation of the
U. M. W. A. and the cleaning out of
the corrupt and treacherous Lewis
Machine" The last several weeks
have aroused the miners of this sec
ton into action. Southern Illinois
which hitherto has been little heard
Of will bear watching in the immed-
late future.
The situation in this section has
not been effected so much by the
crisis that generally confront the
coal mining industry nationally. The
six months "truce" which was so clev-
erly put over on the miners of Illinois
by Lewis Fishwick and the operators
is now being exposed in it's true col
ors before the eyes of the hungry
miners. The six months temporary
agreement is about to expire; it will
have fulfilled the purposes of the
operators on April first. The rank
and file of our union has watched
with increasing anxiety the long
struggle of our Pennsylvania and
Ohio brothers. We have come to rea-
lie that for the last six months we
have deserted the struggling ranks
Of our brothers and their families
and children who along with fathers
have faced the hound of starvation
and the brutality of the BOSSES.

At first Gorky believed that only
the great personality, the individual
with the iron will, can refashion life.
This great personality he sought not
among choice souls oversated with
culture, nor among the peasants who
were rooted to the soil, but among the
exiles Of society, the vagabond "bos-
yaks." Because no one paid any at
tention to the "bosyaks" and they
were looked upon as the scum of the
earth, Gorky wanted to show that
they were the standard bearers of
true humanity, filled with wisdom,
energy and spirit of self-sacrifice.
Thus he introduced into Russian liter
ature an entirely new figure, rebel
lious character in love with life, in
whom there is superabundance of
energy-the very reverse of the NAM
by-pamby intellectuals, with their
passiveness and melancholy, and of
the peasants, with their near-sighted
conservatism. And the boorish, ig-
norant Konovalov, who had been
brought up under the worst sort of
conditions, becomes the expression of

No Further Oppression.
Sunday before last, hundreds of
miners gathered at the Strand theatre
at West Frankfort, the heart of the
coal section in Illinois to hear Pat
Toohey, youthful mine leader, convey
q message from the striking hungry
miners of his district. The meeting
called under the auspices of the Save
the Union Committee created enorm-
Gus interest among the miners. The
thugs of the Lewis machine, headed
by Lon Fox, the sub-district president
at the point of guns, forced the speak
ers from the stage despite the angry
protest of the coal miners. In the
scuffle that followed the chairman of
the meeting was slugged. Calling the
miners to join together at a band
stand, every rank and filler left the
hall to man, leaving Lon Fox to
pray at empty seats.
The mine workers of this community
returned to their respective localities
determined that another meeting
would be held Such a meeting was
organized and the Save-the- Union
Committee held huge mass meeting
at which John Brophy, Joe Angelo
and Gerry Allard were received with
great enthusiasm. The meeting
showed that the rank and file has
become aroused from it's apathy and
is prepared for action. Thousand
miners crowded Polish Hall, while
hundreds were turned away to hear

Although in "Foma Gordeyev" and
"Three" the "bosyak" psychology is
still dominant, there is already de-
picted in them on a broad scale the
growth of capitalism in Russia, and
the typical representatives of CAPT
talism emerge in deeply convincing
way. There is also in these two works
an intimation of the influence of the
factory on all phases of life and the
part it will play in the solution of So
cial problems. And in Gorky's play,
"Petty-Bourgeois," there is heard the
tread of the awakened worker, bring
ing joyous distraction into the mon
otony of the life around. Here the
city pushes the country into the back
ground.
Continuing to grow with the years,
Gorky becomes the artist of the city.
Even when he describes the village,
there is the breath Of city life con-
Istantly bursting through. theological
changes also occur in him: his roman
ticism, the anarchistic aura of his life
philosophy, give way to a more def
mite, more materialistic, more Marx
ian theology.
And Gorky joins the revolutionary
movement; he becomes Soeial-Demoz
crat-Bolshevik.

Committee. Not one of the thugs APP
peared on the scene. The miners were
determined that the meeting would be-
held, and they let the world know
about it too.
Strike Call April First.
Brophy was given a great ovation;
acclaim for the six-hour day and the
five-day week rocked the hall. The
strike call for April first by the dis
trict Save-the-U Union Committee was
adopted unanimously.
April first the miners of Illinois
drop their tools and extend to their
battling brothers of Pennsylvania and
Ohio their hands in solidarity for a
fight TO a finish.
The call for the national conference
at Pittsburgh, April 1, was received
by the miners with great enthusiasm.
The miners of southern Illinois have
re-entered the struggle with spirit
of determination, spirit that is
typical of the scrappy coal digger.
1t is the spirit that will carry them
to successful conclusion against the
bankrupt bureaucracy Of the miners
union and the open shop coal kings.

echoing thruout the country:
