Does anyone think of paying deference to the Russian mujik because he happens to belong to one of the biggest empires territorially?

He makes people stand up and clear out of his way, scolds and threatens all the porters and every mujik he comes across.

Suddenly his ear catches a suspicious sound; he opens his eyes, and sees a mujik stooping down softly in the act of picking up one of his pistols.

Yet his human sympathies were all with the recalcitrant mujiks who, soldiers now at the front, no longer felt any desire for fighting.

The first stages of drunkenness in the mujik are manifested by loquacity.
