[146] Consult, on this point, Stepniak’s “Underground Russia” (London, 1883). Careful inquiry of a large number of Russians, young and old, rich and poor, convinced me long since that the views this book expresses concerning the condition of Russia are substantially correct. [147] Cf. Rudolf Meyer, Bd. i. SS. 42, 43, and two articles on Michael Bakunin, in the _Deutsche Rundschau_ (1877), Bde. 11 u. 12. [148] This was copied in the February (1883) number of the _Journal des Économistes_ from the _Révolté_. I take it from the _Journal_. [149] “Exposé,” etc., p. 260. [150] April, 1883. [151] _Vide_ Malon’s “Exposé,” etc., p. 183. A further account of Colins’s ideas is given in a very interesting manner in an article already referred to—viz., De Laveleye’s “European Terror” (_Fortnightly Review_, April, 1883). [152] A little book which a workman is compelled to keep and exhibit to each employer, in order that the latter may know who have employed him before, the new employer in turn signing his name in the book when the laborer enters his service and when he leaves it, and expressing his opinion of the laborer’s conduct. [153] Quoted from _Journal des Économistes_ for March, 1883, pp. 450-452. [154] “Exposé des Écoles Socialistes Françaises,” pp. iii., iv. [155] “Emancipationskampf,” etc., Bd. i. S. 43. [156] Free-trader is used here, as often in Germany, not to denote simply an advocate of free-trade, but a supporter of the entire abstract and theoretical system of the _English_ free-traders. [157] Page 1023. [158] “Die Lage der arbeitenden Klassen in England” (1845). [159] “System der Weltökonomie, oder Untersuchungen über die Organisation der Arbeit.” [160] As this German custom is not generally understood in America and often leads to confusion, it may be well to state that it is customary to affix the name of a man’s estate or native village or even his wife’s name to his own to distinguish him from others of the same name. Thus, the founder of the people’s banks is called Schulze-Delitzsch, because he lived formerly in a little place called Delitzsch. He afterwards lived in Potsdam, but was still called Schulze-Delitzsch. Delitzsch is, however, really no part of his name. In speaking to him you would generally have addressed him as Mr. Schulze, never Mr. Delitzsch. In reading a book recently written by a learned American, I was amused to see him spoken of seriously as Mr. Schulze von Delitzsch. It originated undoubtedly in Lassalle’s calling him in contempt for his admiration for the _bourgeoisie_ Mr. Bastiat-Schulze von Delitzsch. [161] Cf. Wagner, in _Tübinger Zeitschrift_ (1878), SS. 211, 212. [162] “Zur Beleuchtung,” etc., SS. 23, 24. [163] That is, the labor of man in economic society. [164] “Zur Beleuchtung,” S. 24.
