Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The International Quarterly, Vol. 10 The Russian Autocratic System is now facing a more serious trial than ever in its past. The present war, while diverting public attention for the moment, can not change to any material extent, the course of Russia´s inner development. In fact, it is more likely to hasten the crisis. The system is breaking down and the day when it will be abandoned ought to be a day of praise and thanksgiving not only for the people, but also for the Tsar, for Russian Autocracy has not only brought the country to the verge of ruin and starvation, but it has also ruled Tsar Nicholas II. with a rod of iron, and out of a man of noble motives and high ideals it has made a pathetic figurehead suffering under the weight of the inherited system. Prince Ukhtomski, an old friend of Tsar Nicholas II., whose patriotism and loyalty are beyond question has summed up the situation in the following words: "Russia is chronically starving, pauperism increases in extent and degree and there are neither ways nor means either to stop or to mitigate this evil. Expenditure is growing on all sides and in all directions without bounds, but the sources of productive labor are exhausted. The people in the country, young and old, labor with all their force, but all their exertions do not suffice to satisfy the requirements of the state and of those who live on the labour of the peasants... There is but one way towards a brighter future and that is the delivery of the people from the yoke of bureaucracy. (St. Petersburgskia Vedomosti, November 13th, 1901).
