These men tell their story and estimates of tho j man firsthand. They were with hin; when it happened. This book ia ths first collection of authentic informa tion about the Black Prince of boi ahevlsm, the inspiring demon of world revolution, the overthrower of thrones, the manufacturer of histo,-v while you wait, and the present rul er of two fifths of the globe. Lenin mastered one revolution to set ud a more far reaching one. His father waa head of a gymnasium school an 1 became one of the minor nobility bis brother was hanged by the czar, Lenin served his term of exile in S -beria, tren, forbidden to live in any large city of his native country, was driven to reside as an outcast in tho capitals ol Europe, and in 1910 had forced himself to the headship of1 tne International social democracy. He did good preparatory work for twenty five years and was ready when the opportunity came to step Into the rulership of 170,000,000 hu man beings. So far he has held on. He has tuilt a government, has rais ed an army and today Is directing the revolution in Germany. He is pic tured as a man without magnetism, who speaks in low tones, without rhetorical or oratorical efforts, ha3 never 'nude the big noise or dono the arm waving and clinched fist act so prominent in men like Hiram Joh;. aon, anj yet has never failed to car ry an audience even when It can e armed vith repeating rifles to take his life. He had to leap from worid obscurity to a throne. As a statesman he was more than obscure he wp. j what patience, what training, what mastery of detail, what constancy jf the red revolutionary impulse ittook to achievs that sublime leap. And It Is not yet certain that he can bi dethroned, unhorsed, or conquered, ntil he shall have run his course. Lenin has been accused of being the hired tool of the kaiser, col 1 bloodedly betraying his comrades for Sold of Junkerism. John Spargo, the American socialist, accuses him of herding the ignorant an;l appealing to the tasest passions. But he never met the man intimately as these threa foreigners did whb write this book. At the university of St. Petersburg we find him working sixteen hours a day and winning a prize for a thesis on the visual organs of worms. In a revolutionary congress In 1904 Lenin Introduced every question that he is now trying to solve as the head of an actutl government dictatorship of the proletariat, confiscation of cap llal and property, and the doctrine of revolutionary action io its extreme limits. In the realm of ideas Lenin Is an aristocrat with the preference of a granl putriclan for men of bral, the only real aristocracy in the world. He once said: "For every hon est bolshevik there are thirty scoun drels and sixty nine fools." He be lieves nt heart in the absolute free dom of the masses, as far transcend ing the teachings of Jefferson as Jef ferson surpassed the rankest tories of his time. Hear his faith In the un taught dark people of the lat e realm of the rzrrs: "Make man free and he ore-lies. Under the quickening touch cf the new spirit there liae grown vp ten new universities, scores of theaters, thousands of libraries and common schools by tens of thou sands." Let us quote Raymond Rob ins, the American who has lectured In Hulenv: "Russia has a revolution. Lenin did not inulto It. He led It but he did not make it. Yet he does lend Jt. And be leads it nil the time, as to play the German game.' T-eucessfuily fight Bolshevism it is necessary to get its number and dimensions. This book published by Scott and Seltzer New Tork, is a step in that direction. Pardon Me By MB.
