Robotnik (The Worker) was the bibuła (underground) newspaper published by Polish Socialist Party (PPS).
It was first published on 12 July 1894 in Wilno by the Lithuanian branch of PPS led by future dictator of Second Polish Republic, Józef Piłsudski. Among it's other editors was Stanisław Wojciechowski, future president of Poland. In order to throw the ochrana secret police and regular Russian police off track, the newspaper was first distributed in Warsaw. Piłdsudski would become one of the chief editors and writers for the newspaper, often he spend most of the day at the printing press. It's first issue was printed in 1200 numbers, it was distributed in most major cities and towns in Poland. In 1900 the police managed to find the printing press, Józef Piłsudski, along with several other members of PPS (including his wife, Maria Piłsudska) were arrested and sentenced to imprisonment (Piłsudski would soon escape feigning mental illness).
In the following years Robotnik would be printed in various places by several groups of PPS, or related to it. From 1915 'Robotnik' was legalized, first legal issue was printed in Dąbrowa Górnicza. From 1919 to 1939 it became a normal, legal newspaper in the Second Polish Republic. Among its editors were Feliks Perl (d.1927) and Mieczysław Niedziałkowski (1927-1939). Its notable contributors included Zygmunt Zaremba, Stanisław Posner, Karol Irzykowski, Cezary Jellenta and Jan Nepomucen Miller, and it's circulation reached 10-20,000 issues. After the May Coup of Piłsudski, who after the First World War distanced himself from PPS, 'Robotnik' took an opposition stance towards his government; in return, some of its editions were subject to confiscations (only from 1926 to 1935 about 500 issues were confiscated). The last issue was released on 23 September 1939, in the fourth week of Polish September Campaign. Among the notable policies opposed by the journal was that of anti-semitism.
After the war several newspapers of that name were printed in Poland and abroad; among the most notable was another underground paper published by Solidarity movement from 1983-1990.
