"laughter; for It was the signal for
cutoreass against tne goveromen
throughout the empire. The collapse
of the war with Japan weakened the
cxar and strengthened the people. The
tlrst duma, -was the direct lesulC
- But the duma was given little power
It represented. the property classes, it
could not initiate .legislation. Free
dom of speech was not guaranteed.
Disappointment became violence. A
general strike paralyzed the empire.
Again the czar yielded. He -would
grant everything. The rage, of the
autocracy vented Itself against the
Jews, the Poles and the Finns in mas
sacres ana in narsn eaicts. xne reply
thereto was another strike and a sert
ous revolt in Moscow which, if the
troops had not held by the government.
might have brought the successful rev
olution 12 years sgo.
The first duma made a bold attempt
to secure for Itself larger rights, and
for the Russian people their-liberties.
It was rebuffed by the court, and dis
solved. The second duma, in .1907,
fared no better. The election laws
were then made more strict, and the
third duma was more subservient. It
endured for five years, during which
the revolution was abeyance. The
fourth duma, which met late to 1912.
acted at first with the same caution.
but the popular pressure for reform
measures was too great to be with
stood. While the duma hesitated, the
people at home were acting. There
were strikes; there were demands;
there were demonstrations. The situ
atlon was serious wben the outbreak
of the war, to the summer of 1914,
forced the country to attend to the
danger f rom.without. The duma'voteJ
to support the government. The gov
ernment, on Its part, yielded conces
sions. But its failure to keep its
promises to Poland, and Its harsh
measures in that portion of Galicta
which the armies overran fn 1916
made the duma suspicious. So loud
was Its criticism that It was pro
rogued to September.
a a
For six months the government has
been putting off the duma. Its sum
moning has' been repeatedly fixed and
then delayed. Manifestly, the bureau
cracy has been afraid of It, They
must have realised that their only
salvation lay in receiving aid from
Germany; but the people were too
strong for them, and they could not
make good their program. Finally
they could endure no longer. Over
they went. The great step toward
which the Russian people have been
moving for so many years has been
achieved.
It remains for th people to consoli
date their power.
