To:   Y. M. STEKLOV [1]

Dear Comrade, Comrade Vas. Vas., a member of our Editorial Board, has informed me
that on the whole you share the stand of Proletary 95 in
the present disputes on tactics and organisation among the
Social-Democrats. This was very good news for all of us members of the
Editorial Board of Proletary . It is our firm conviction that the
old conflicts of the circle period should under no circumstances impede
joint work on the basis of common principles and strictly Party
relationships. We therefore consider it our duty to invite you to work with
us in Proletary , the Central Organ of the R.S.D.L.P. We would be
extremely happy if we could thus pave the way to uniting by truly Party
bonds as many influential representatives of Social-Democracy as possible.

With Social-Democratic greetings,

N. Lenin
