The Spirit of Pan-Slavism  “Russia promises to leap straight from the Carpathians to Berlin.” Leon Bakst, the celebrated Russian artist, furnishes this Russian cartoon. In it he proclaims that his country will not be content merely to hold back Austria in a defensive war. When called on to defend the Serbian Slavs, she will cross the Carpathian Mountains, will overrun Austria, and is even able if necessary to fight Germany also. The Russian cartoons contain nothing of the keen insight of Dyson nor of the high spirituality of Raemarkers; they are savage, direct threats, meeting the similar German cartoons blow for blow.
