The split between Liberals and Catholics marked a long period of public and political life in Slovenia. An important role in the outbreak and maintenance of this conflict was played by the leading press of the time. The Russian emigrants who had sought refuge in Slovenia soon found themselves caught in the crossfire between the two camps. Of the stories about Russian emigrants published in the interbellum press (Jutro, Slovenec, Slovenski Narod), public interest concentrated on the events accompanying the eviction of Russian students from the Ljubljana Castle. Two other notable events were Bishop Jeglič’s pre-election visit to the Russian shanties near the Ljubljana railway station and Fran Grivec’s lecture in support of Russian refugees. These stories, by which each camp sought to demonstrate (mainly to the other) the high level of its local ‘pro-Russian’ stance, were intended as proof of their wider ‘Slavic’ policies.
