“...one of the Duma bison, Markov 2nd, spoke very frankly about the significance of the Stolypin agrarian reform. “This reform,” he said, “will, of course, lead to the fact that the weakest part of the peasantry will be deprived of land and become into the proletarians. On the other hand, thanks to it, urban workers who are loosely connected with it will leave the village and, having sold their plots, will finally break their connection with the land. But there is no need to fear either one or the other; The proletariat is needed for large-scale farming, and its appearance will have a beneficial effect both on the pockets of the landowners and on the pockets of the rich people running their farms.” Bravo, Mr. Markov! Your predictions coincide with ours, you said exactly what it is, and this once again confirmed that sometimes the Valaam donkey can tell the truth. ..."
