Peasants Reported
Against Bolsheviki
That the masses of the Russian
peasants ire gradually becoming du
ll'us-cned regarding their status un
der Bolshevism and are almost ready
to against a Government which
merely allows them the use of the land
and not its ownership, is the conclu
sion reached by the Russian corres
pondent of tne N’teowe Rottardamsshe
Courant. in an article quoted as fol
lows in the Munichener Post of Jan
uary 31:
"FeUiOwtng the fan of Czansm i nad
abundant opportunity to look into tie
Ttrr.il r—akeup of xbe Russian peas
tt: . ^>,} seiriotse tie majority of the
R.iSita people I thought it was im
portant t» kaow if f^e peasants' oid
conservatism stin prevailed, or if the
revolution had altered tieir views.
Tie numerous conversations tiat I
-ave had with the peasants have led
to tie conclusion that tie Russian
farmer is tie same oid egoist as be
fore Tie weffare of Russia is mere
ly a secondary matter to him. He de
mand from the revolution la whicn -a
participated nothing but ownership of
and and free trade, as be wants to
sell bis grain on the best terms cfc
na&ie,
•• Tierefoef he is an opponent of the
Bolsheviki who regard the land as the
Property of all and tie peasant mere
ly as ts cultivator, who must sell his
harvest at fixed prices to tie food com
missions. This has already led to
resistance beta* offered to the Bolshe
vik! by the peasants. The peasant is
asking himself if he was not better off
under Crarism than unde- tie pres
ent regime.
-The country pcpiwaticn of Russia
was generally mocarchiai’y inclined,
regarding the monarch not only as a
ruler, but also as the infallible divine
authority. The efforts of the inteliectu
a s to win tie peasants for modern
ideas and to instruct them about poil*
tics, parliamentarism, sc-cia’ogy. econ
omic problems, Ac., did not meet with
much success- The most they read
was about the economic advantages
promised by the revolution. Thus the
ope clients of Czarism succeeded in ob
taining the support of the peasants,
but. now that the revolution has lasted
two years and has brought nothing but
disappointments, the latter are think
ing that they have bet on the wrong
rcrse
“At fi-si everything went as they
wished it. They took the land and cat
t'e i*;r *rom the big landowners and
kept it themselves. But now it turns
cut that they are not the real owners
arter an, ana tney are passionately
clamoring for a government that is
resoy tc recognise them property
right in the land.”
A aether aspect of tie Bolshevist re
rolatisTs is presented in a letter writ
tea. by a Russian woman revolution*
1st to a fellow Socialist in Germany
and printed in tie Vorwarts of Jan.
27. it reads, in part, as follows;
“Tie masse* of the peasants do not
understand t&e value at oemocratio
rights zn.-t are indifferent toward
them, it was because of this that the
Pclshevist Government so easily suc
oeded in breaking up the Constituent
Asse-"b 7, m destroying tie free press
and in robbing tie people of the li
berty of assemblage and speech. For
tie farmer wants only one thing from
•h? revolution. He wants to get tie real
estate ownem land. The Government
fiat wiH give him tiis in an honest
fashion wCl be able to establish itself
firmly ;n Russia But I emphasise the
fact that It must be done honestly, for
tie So'*nev;st Government merely
*i'ew tie land to the peasants with
ti* command: 'Divide It among your*
selves according to your own Judg
ment.- Now. this way of presenting
them with tie land has generated a
regular rage for mutual destruction a
mosg the peasants, and tie/ are so
ovsy with tie ask of dividing up and
'ighttog each other that they will have
so idea of politics for many yeart
Tne peasant is without politics.
-Before tie February (March) re
volution. and during it the working
ciais icngea tor oemocratio ngrrts.
And here comes the most tragic part
of Bolshevism. It has put peasants'
,deas into the heads of tie proletar
iats Wrought up to the boiling point
against the bourgeois class, tie prole
tarian seeks to destroy it and to help
himself by Imitating the peasant and
hurrying to divide up the property in
th* city like the peasant is doing to
tie country with tie property of the
endowners
"Under the direction of the Bolshe
vist Government, the proletariat has
gone to far to its • socialisation’ of tie
•meant of production as to cause the
-via of thousands of factories.
la fact. Bolshevism is bringing
Russia back to a state of primitive
economic*. It is ao mere echoes that
Russia is bow failing into several
small States The country is gaining
the upper hand over the city, both
materially and intellectually. This is
the result of the economic retrogres
sion that began with Bolshevism. The
Mties are pining away. Petrograd
has only SOl.OfiO inhabitants against
some 3,OOO.OOOcn!y last year, in Mos
cow things are no better Last year its
population was almost 2.500.000. now
it is only 900,000.”
GRUESOME FIND
ON RUBY TRAIL
OE MISSING MAN
Perhaps never in the annals of the
Northland has a more gruesome tale
been told than the one concerning the
finding of the body of E. M, Haugen
on the trail between Long Creek 3nd
the North Pork of the Innoko river,
The news of the finding of the body
was received in a recent letter from
the lower river.
Hausen and Vincent Kauchek.
partners, were on their way to Ruby
from Cripple creek, which place they
left December 6th l3st. This was dur
ing rhe extreme cold spell in the coun
try adjacent to Ruby, in making the
trip from Cripple the men in seme
manner became tost and were com
ceiled to "smash" it for a couple of
ingots naucnekS eet naa become
frozen and he struck out ahead of
Haugen to find a cabin or some other
refuge. That was the last seen of
Haugen until during the middle of
January, when his remains were
found Kauchek was later picked up
by a party of miners and brought to
Long city and latey sent to Port Gib
bon.
On Bearing of to* condition of Hau
gen a searching party at once set out
and instituted a vigorous search for
the missing man. Owing to the ex
treme cold it was a foregone conclu
sion that he had perished, as his food
supply was low and bedding scarce,
The search was continued for many
days and the efforts cf the party were
rewarded by coming across beta the
remains of the man and that of his
fa thful dog, which had remained at
his side even in death, instead of the
frozen bod7 the party found nothing
Lot the skeleton of the man scarce
*hirty pounds in weight, and that
badly dismembered The deg. gaunt
and thin and on the verge of starva
tion had devoured the corpse of his
master tc sustain life,
Horrified, the searching party gath
fed uo what remained of Haugen
and brought it to Long, where it was
^iven the last rites of the Northerner,
Tie deceased, before his death, had
worked all summer for Strandberg, at
Flat and had received no pay for his
services,—Seward Gateway.
