"On the one hand, the imperialist clique, headed by the Cadets, bombards the government with demands for "vigorous" measures against the revolution... and for the "arrest of the Soviets,"
On the other hand, profound discontent is brewing among the worker and peasant masses, who are doomed to land hunger and unemployment and are subjected to repressive measures and the death penalty. The swing to the Left of the soldier-peasant masses, who only yesterday still trusted the compromisers, was very clearly reflected in the Petrograd elections, which undermined the strength and prestige of the compromising parties."
"All power to the proletariat, supported by the poor peasants—such is the slogan of the revolution Either, or!
Either with the landlords and capitalists, and then the complete triumph of the counter-revolution.
Or with the proletariat and the poor peasantry, and then the complete triumph of the revolution.
The policy of compromise and coalition is doomed to failure."
~J. STALIN

Lenins article about improving the newly created state apparatus and the Rabkrin (the Workers and Peasants Inspection) which was a body selected from Soviet workers and peasants to investigate government offices and enterprises to improve their efficiency and combat corruption.
Lenin stressed that the new soviet state was still extremely amateurishly organized, relying on badly educated peasants, people grown up under feudalism and unreliable bourgeois and petite-bourgeois intellectuals. Lenin recommended Stalin as the head of the new Rabkrin.
