If I sometime go to Lenin state library of Moscow I can look for it, but problem is that they haven't got microfilms and old papers are not allowed to get xerocopied. Quite a lot of documents from the beginning of the century has been published in hard cover or is in process to be published in Russia, this includes -2 big volumes documents of anarchist movements (1st published already) -2 big volumes documents of Left wing esers (1st published already, handles only 1918) -3 big volumes documents of esers in general (1-2 out already) -a fat book on Tyumen uprising, bigger left-wing uprising against Bolsheviks in Siberia 1920 than Kronstadt, Makhnovitschina and Antonovists together with some 150 000 participants. -Also a book Kronstandt documents All of these of course in Russian, but I'll try to got some document done on Tyumen thing on English in a few years. If you are interested to get some I can get them from bookstore (I am sure none of them, all maybe 600 pages, cost more than 10$), but do not except that I am able to do it very quickly. If I run to some left-wing bolshevik stuff I may report to those who are interested. Antti R., AA of Moscow.
