Dear comrades! I have received the money, 1000 roubles = 2640 francs, and the first issue of The Worker.

It makes an excellent impression. One can hope that the difficult task of presenting popular exposition in an interesting manner will be largely solved. There is something fresh in the tone and character of the presentation. Excellent fighting spirit. In a word, I can sincerely congratulate on the success and wish for more. The following specific remarks come to mind: 1) it would be desirable to speak a little more about socialism, given the "explanatory" nature of the publication; 2) it would be desirable to link the fighting political slogans more closely and directly with the resolutions of the Third Congress and with the general spirit of our tactics of revolutionary Social-Democracy.

Now, regarding your letter of 24. 8. 05, which struck us all with its tone 77. I. On Information.
