Reading edition
"Read the suicide tables and see how many despairing men, hope less of keeping their homes together, pay with their lives the toil imposed upon them by squanderers of the public money." Helen Mathers in P. T. O., Feb. 9 1907, p. 180. This is one of Tolstoi's chief arguments against all government.
