said one of the speakers. ‘The
capitalists say that socialism and
bolshevism are the same thing”
he said. “Not YET, but if they

revolution and bolshevism. It
will depend upon our capitalist
rulers. If they are going to put
our legal representatives out of
office, the working class will lose
faith in political action.”

Three Convicts Shot
Tuesday afternoon five con-
victs made a break for liberty at
the Reformatory. Guards began
shooting and winged three of
them, upon which the other two
gave up the attempt and re-
turned. None of the escapes
were seriously hurt, as the
guards did not try to kill them
but were merely trying to stop
them.—Granite Enterprise,
