But among ORIENT AND OCCIDENT the aristocratic classes of Russia there is even a strong feeling of contempt for an industrial and commercial civilization. They consider themselves called to propagate the ideas of Russian civiliza- tion, rather than to aid the industrial development. A Russian diplomat thus expresses this feeling: " The Russians are not a commercial nation. The people have aspirations toward higher ideals than those of commercial gain. The Dioujik exists for raising the sustenan...ce of war. " Some writers fear that in the mysterious work- shop of Asia, Russia may elaborate and force upon the world the industrial and financial preponder- ance of Slavism. It should, however, be borne in mind that Russia is in an entirely different position in Asia from that which other nations hold. She came there originally, not from a desire for com- mercial exploitation, but by following her destiny, the inward compelling power of national expan- sion. At present, by abandoning the traditions of this expansion, by actually planting outpost col- onies of Russians and by entering upon a policy of more conscious imperialism, she is in danger of materially weakening herself on account of too rapid an advance.
