The reflection of the trial of F. K. Mironov in Balashov on the pages of the local periodical press

One of the significant events in the political life of Soviet Russia in the autumn of 1919 was a trial of the Red commander F. K. Mironov. It took place in the uyezd town of Balashov of Saratov gubernia. The author of the paper sets a task of considering this event the way it was reflected on the pages of the local press. In the course of the conducted analysis it is found that a negative image with the population was purposefully being formed who, for the most part, treated him mercifully.
