BOLSHEVIKI ARE HELD AS GUILTY
Rv Review Lsased wirel

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-Six Bolshe- wiki, one of whom was a woman, charged with circulating pamphlets criticising the United States govern ment for sending troops into Russia, were convicted there today in the fed eral court Pleading justification on the ground that the United States was not at war with that country the de- fendants also declared that the Sis son papers" which showed German support and control of the Bolsheviki regime, were forgeries.
 Those convicted were Mollie Steim- CT, Sam Lipman, Jacob Abrams. lily man Lachowsky, and Hyman Rosan- sky. The sixth defendant, Gabriel Prosser. was acquitted.
 The corridors of the federal build ing were filled with friends of the defendants, who became somewhat boisterous when the jury retired and the halls were cleared by deputy mar shals.
 Immediately after the verdict was announced counsel for the Russians was on his feet asking that it be set aside Judge Clayton denied the mo- tion, reminding the attorney that it was no time to question a decision which occupied the attention of the whole world"
 This is no time for soap box ora tory" the judge declared. Sit down. Your clients have been convicted. That's all"

BABY GRANDS ARE POPULAR.
Chevrolet Agency Reports Delivery
of Two MOre-Busy Season
Expected.

Sale of two more of the new Baby
Grand Chevrolet cars is reported this
week by the local agency, the Capital
Transit & Repair company. One of
them was delivered to F. w. Ehblum,
an employe of the Sloan Shipyards,
and the other to F. w. Egbert of Ar
cadia.
B. TroXell, sales maneger of the
local agency, reports that the new
Baby Grand is becoming very popu-
lar. and his company looks forward
to a heavy run on this model during
the coming season. The Chevrolet
"Four-Ninety" continues to be in
much demand, also, and the company
anticipates an active season this
year in both models.
The territory of the local agency
has just been extended to include
Tenino, formerly handled by the
Centralia dealer. The Capital Tran
sit & Repair company expects to es-
tablish sub-agency there, to take
care of the business in that district.

POSTAL employees
ASK HIGHER WAGES
POINT OUT THAT THEY HAVE
NOT HAD A "RAISE" FOR 10
YEARS-LIVING COST Up.

Employees of the local postofice,
along with those of all the other
postoffices of the country, are petit
tioning congress for an adjustment
of salaries, asking for an increase Of
rs per cent in all grades up to and
including the $500 grade.
In stating their reasons for the
adjustment. the postal employees
point out that their wages have not
been increased for 10 years, the
present salary classification law hav-
ing been enacted in 1907, when con-
gress endeavored to fix level of
salaries based on the cost of living
at that time, and favorably compar-
ing with wages in other lines Of
work. Since then statistics issued
by the department of labor, they say.
show that retail food prices advanced
As per cent up to 1915 and IS per
cent since.
Hundreds of the most efficient
and trusted men in the service have
}
resigned" a statement issued by the
local employees says, "and hundreds
of others will follow them If salaries
are not adjusted to meet this abnor-
NAL increase in the cost of living.
1.-THE postofice department is one
of the most important branches of
the government, especially at the
present time, and it's present eff
cheney is due in no small way to the
loyalty and honesty of the employees.
If this efficiency is to be maintained
and the experienced and capable en-
ployes retained in the service, salary
levels must change to meet present
conditions"
Commenting on the postal en-
ployes' petition, Edwin Selvin, editor
of Business Chronicle, Seattle, said:
you may hunt the country over and
you will not find craft numbering
10000 workers that has not had a
wage increase in 10 years"
