From THE LETTER TO THE EDITOR OF PRAVDA
[July 19, 1912]
I advise you to reply to Trotsky through the post: “To Trotsky (Vienna). We shall not reply to
disruptive and slanderous letters.” Trotsky’s dirty campaign against Pravda is one mass of lies and
slander. The well-known Marxist and follower of Plekhanov, Rothstein (London), has written to us
that he received Trotsky’s slanders and replied to him: I cannot complain of the Petersburg Pravda
in any way. But this intriguer and liquidator goes on lying, right and left.
Yours faithfully,
V. Ulyanov
P.S. It would be still better to reply in this way to Trotsky through the post: “To Trotsky
(Vienna). You are wasting your time sending us disruptive and slanderous letters. They will not be
replied to.”50
