Kolokolnikov, Konstantin Aleksandrovich

Early years. Priest and Deputy

Konstantin Kolokolnikov was born on May 21, 1871 in the village of Ryabki of the Osinsky district ( Perm province ) into the family of the abbot of the Ryabkovsky Church of the Nativity, Alexander Evsigneyevich Kolokolnikov ^{[1] [2]} .

In 1893, after graduating from the Perm Theological Seminary on the first category (XLIX graduation), Konstantin Aleksandrovich began a church service in Perm - in the Alexander Nevsky Church. He was a member and treasurer of the Perm Diocesan College Council, assistant director and teacher in the diocesan church-teacher school of the brotherhood of St. Stephen, as well as a scribe at the school of blind children under the Mariinsky Trusteeship for the Blind (priest of the church at the provincial zemstvos hospital) ^{[2] [3] [4]} .

In the years 1902-1907 Kolokolnikov was a scribe at the Second City Four-grade Ekaterino-Petrovsky School . He had conflicts with the church authorities - he was repeatedly persecuted ^{[2] [3]} .

At the provincial electoral meeting on February 6, 1907, Kolokolnikov was an elector from the congress of urban voters in Perm. He was elected to the State Duma of the Russian Empire of the second convocation (1907) ^[2] .

In an address to the citizens of Perm published in the newspaper Kamsky Krai on the occasion of his departure, Kolokolnikov declared that he was leaving his beloved Perm in order to be in the capital “a defender of the interests and rights of my smaller brothers in the word of the Gospel ” ^[2] :

With the wires of newly elected deputies of the State Duma Kolokolnikov and A. A. Shpagin at a meeting at the station of Perm-1 station, provocateur Lebedev made a shot from a revolver, which served the police and gendarmes with a signal to open fire and disperse the meeting ^{[1] [5]} .

In response to the deputies of the State Duma from the city of Perm G. I. Baskin and K. A. Kolokolnikov, the Muslims of the city ​​demanded, along with the exercise of basic civil freedoms, to achieve: establishing the election of the mufti by the believers instead of appointing the government, reorganizing the spiritual assembly at the elective beginning, electing all mullahs and Ahuns , as well as the possibility of their withdrawal if the believers are not satisfied with their work. In addition, Muslims asked the people's representatives to fully equalize the rights of the Muslim clergy with Orthodox priests ^[1] .

In the Second Duma

In the State Duma, Kolokolnikov initially belonged to the Socialist Revolutionary Party (AKP), but at the same time he declared that "against the republic, since the electors did not authorize him to change the form of government, but he stands for the most democratic constitution." Later, Konstantin Aleksandrovich moved to the cadet faction ^[2] . Kolokolnikov also reported to the deputies about an attempt to prevent him from being elected during the elections: the arrest of an elector the day before and his subsequent removal from the possibility of a vote ^[1] .

Kolokolnikov was a member of the Duma commission on local government and self-government, was a member of the Non-Party Group and was secretary of the 4th section of the Duma ^{[2] [3]} . He spoke March 19, 1907 in the debate on the agrarian question. Having started his speech with the message that he “still refrained from bothering” the deputies' attention, although he “could say something”, he further stated that “at the present moment the duty to the multimillion-dollar working peasantry who sent me has made me say.” The essence of his speech was to transfer all the land to the equal use of those who cultivate it with their own labor (that is, the peasants) without redemption, “for the working peasantry overpaid so much for this land that he should have demanded more information about his real exploiters ” ( see Black repartition ) ^[2] .

In addition, Priest Kolokolnikov K.A., who was distinguished by the categorical critical views on government reforms (the most “leftist” of 13 deputies from the clergy of the Second Duma), proposed to move from discussion of declarations to more relevant, current affairs, since “the government should be considered with people's representatives and public opinion , otherwise it will not be stable ” ^[6] .

Bishop Eulogius mentions a secret decree of the Most Holy Synod of May 12, 1907, not reflected in official sources, which was announced personally to priests - members of the State Duma, including Kolokolnikov. This order obliged the clergy to leave the opposition parties and adjoin only to “ monarchists , Octobrists or non-party rightists and speak in the Duma only in the spirit of these parties” ^[6] .

Deprivation and reference. Judge and teacher

Edited by Konstantin Kolokolnikov in St. Petersburg , the only issue of the Rodnoe Slovo newspaper was published, after which the publication was terminated by the decision of the Moscow Court of Justice. Almost immediately after his election to the Second Duma, Kolokolnikov was suspended from worship and deprived of the right to wear a pectoral cross "for belonging to revolutionary parties." In the summer of 1907, the Perm Spiritual Consistory decided to deprive him of the priesthood ^[2] .

The newspaper "Rus" reported that "the deputy of the 2nd State Duma, Priest Kolokolnikov, deprived of priesthood by the verdict of the Perm diocesan court, according to the Permian spiritual consistory, reported to the Synod that his personal convictions do not oblige him to execute the consistory sentence, and he can only execute jury trial verdict ” ^[1] . ^[7]

In 1907, Kolokolnikov was exiled to the eternal settlement in Siberia , where he lived under police supervision in Tomsk ^[1] . In the fall, he entered the auditor at the law faculty of Tomsk University, where he was persecuted by the authorities ^[2] . In 1912, Kolokolnikov became a non-staff lecturer in political economy at the First Siberian Secondary Polytechnic School in Tomsk. In 1913–1914, he was a member of the pedagogical council and a teacher in the same school ^[1] .

From June 1917 to February 1919, he was a justice of the peace in the villages of Sludka and Trinity of the Perm district of the province of the same name ^{[1] [2]} .

With the advent of Soviet power , in the 1920s, Kolokolnikov served in the Volgokaspiyles Perm lespromkhoz. He died on October 17, 1929 in Perm ^[2] .
