Out of a five-volume official report emerges the figure of an empire- builder in as small way—Peter Vero_ gin, leader of the Russian Doukho bars in British Columbia. The re- port has just been presented -to the British Columbian Government by 11"illiam Blakemore, appointed last August to enquire into the desira- bility of the Doukhobors' as colo- nists. It has many interesting things to say of them. but its strik- ing feature is the picture. it sketch- es of their leader. Back in Russia in the time' of their persecution they were led by a woman, Lukerya Vasylyvna Kal mykova, On her death Veregin sue- ceeded to the office. The sect split, Veregin's enemies had him exiled to Siberia, and sleighs travelled 2,000 miles over the snow to main- tain communication between him and his people. After the Doukho- bors were enabled to migrate to Canada, largely through the efforts of Count Leo Tolstoy, the Society of Friends of England, and the Qua- kers in Philadelphia, things went badly. Therefore the Russian Gov- ernment was induced to liberate Veregin, and he has since been the actual ruler of the Doukhobors. A Benevolent Despot. - He is described as a, benevolent despot absolutely devoted to the interests of the Doukhobors, at all times plotting; planning and schem- ing to advance their cause, not en- riehing himself ; ruling with. a rod of iron; exacting implicit obedience and exercising rigid dasoipline. Re is a big man in every sense of the word; the history and traditions of his people,- his own suffering, his contact with great men have been his education. He inherits the characteristics of his race, among which are strong reasoning capa- city, diplomatic skill and subtlety. The greatest evidence of his ability is the manner in which he has for thirteen years been able with com- rarative success to hold together bis people in an environment en.-. tirely alien to their ideas, their cherished beliefs and their ambi- tions. In the freest country in the world, where individual feeling is the keynote, says Mr. Blakemore, he still holds six -sevenths of the original settlement in the thrall of community life, with individuality extinguished except for - his own .... .......

The report recom— mends that the Government follow a policy of patience toward them and put pressure on the leaders to secure compliance with the laws, resorting in case of prosecutions to the imposition of fines rather than. imprisonment, which the Doukho- bora regard as persecution. It sug- gests appointing a Doukhobor agent on somewhat similar lines to the Indian agents ' and cancelling the order -in -Council granting ex- emption from military service. It opposes the admittance of Doukho- hors into Canada in future save on the clear understanding that no ex- ceptions of any kind will be allowed in the matter of observance of laws. The Doukhobors were brought to Canada thirteen years ago in conse- quence of the persecution to which they had been subjected in Russia for three centuries. They settled in Saskatchewan amid very . unfavor- able surraundings. They had no money, they arrived, at a bad time of the year, for the Winter lay just in front of them; they were unpre- pared for the rigorous • weather of the prairies, :and they were without their leader. But they never lost heart. Lacking horses and teams, the women turned to and hauled the plough"and scattered the seed, while their husbands and sons went to work on railway construction to earn a few needed.. dollars. A circumstance which has done much to bring the Doukhobors into disrepute and. to •create a wrong im- pression concerning them was the tunate " it rmaie" unfor p g g near York ton in 1899. On this occasion -several hundred Doukhobors were induced by a faxiatic to abandon their homes and march out,uncloth- ed across the snowy prairies on a religious pilgrimage in quest of Christ; It was a purely fanatical proceeding indulged in by a very small number and .condemned by, the vast majority'of the oommunity, but it was taken as a representative act, which it was not, and has never since been. repeated. An Able aiilller. By this time the Canadian. Gov- ernment had begun to . be afraid that there might be•serious trouble with the Doukhobors. The vagaries in which the feiv indi,ilgsd were taken to indicate " the possibility that the„whoie '7,000 might resort to similar practices.
