THE DEGENERACY OF THE REVOLUTION 59
departure in Russian State affairs can, of course, only be
applauded ; but if, on the contrary, the historical growth of
great State organisms may be regarded as a better and fuller
accomplishment of the multiple requirements of a civilised
community, then the progress of Russia demands the holding
of all territory acquired in the past irrespective of any local
autonomy to be granted. The sound idea of local autonomy
to be granted to the different provinces of Russia can only
bring about satisfactory results if that autonomy is not
exaggerated into independence and if the different parts of
the State unconditionally recognise the overlordship of the
central government which would bind them together.
Even at this present juncture the most vital artery of
Russia’s whole being lies in striving to preserve her unity
as one State, indivisible.
