Two Shortcomings Written June 5 (May 23), 1917.In criticising other parties we should not forget to criticise ourselves. The published lists of candidates for members of the Petrograd District Councils have revealed two short comings in our Party organisation and Party work.
Has Dual Power Disappeared? It has not. Dual power still remains. The basic question of every revolution, that of state power, is still in an uncertain, unstable, and obviously transitory state.
On the “Unauthorised Seizure” of Land "If the peasants sow the fields poorly, they should be helped—and this particularly applies to the poor peasants—by means of collective cultivation of the large estates. There is no other way of helping the poor peasants. And this, unfortunately, is just the remedy which S. Maslov does not propose."Published in PravdaNo. 61, June 2 (May 20), 1917.
One More Crime of the Capitalists The report made in Petrograd recently by a delegation of Donets workers exposed the Donets coal mine owners, who are criminally disrupting and stopping production, and (for the sake of safeguarding their “sacred” right to enormous profits) are condemning the workers to unemployment, the country to starvation, and industry to a crisis through a coal shortage.
How the Capitalists Are Trying to Scare the People In an editorial on May 17 Finansovaya Gazeta writes:
One More Departure From Democratic Principles "The principle of democracy—the right of the population at any time to recall each and every representative, each and every person holding elected office". Pravda No. 60, May 31 (18), 1917.
Combating Economic Chaos By a Spate of Commissions "0 men! 0 lawgivers! 0 Louis Blancs!". Published in Pravda No. 60, May 31 (18), 1917.
Muddleheadedness (More on the subject of annexations) "Annexation means keeping an alien people by force within the bounds of a given state." Pravda No. 60, May 31 (18), 1917.The editors of Izvestia, a paper controlled by the Narodnik and Menshevik bloc, are beating all records of muddledom. In that paper’s issue No.67 for May 16, they try to chop logic with Pravda, without, of course, mentioning its name—a usual ill-mannered “ministerial” practice. Pravda, we are told, has a foggy, misleading idea of annexations.
A Letter to the Editors "Once more I ask readers not to believe the papers, except Pravda." Written May 31 (18), 1917.
Inevitable Catastrophe and Extravagant Promises ''The most useful and indispensable job for the people at this moment of impending catastrophe is that of organisation.''Published in Pravda No. 58 and 59, May 29 and 30 (16 and 17), 1917.
