where the mayor '.addressed'' us
while at least two councilmen bless
ed us. Holding several outdoor
meetings and mingling with the peo-
pie demonstrates that Socialism will
capture this city at the next election,

gentlemen crowded the hall to hear
and cheer for the great and coming
revolution for Rig hteouSnesS. No
mistake, but that where our mes
sage has been carried once the peo-
come in crowds to hear the truth
and right retold
to greet us with outstretched arms
OF welcome. Such comrades as Stin-
son, Myles and others are abravely
battling for the rights of man. Here

dience was packed and damned into
the hall, cheering and shouting for
the coming Revolution.

no Socialist had ever spoke before,
but men and women crowded into
the hall to hear the modern mes

comrades as Brice, Hickman and
many others are staunch pioneers of
