In protest to sending their
children to school the Douks. as
they are known here, tore up
railroad tracks, went on hun

in the nude.
Until raided the other day,
they claimed religious freedom
in their former stronghold at

still do after the Royal Canadian

to the floor of their cells.
Dilemma for Government.
The mounted police, who have
run up against the Doukhobors
several times before, say this
time the issue will have to be
settled. But no one apparently
knows how to do it.

The dilemma is the main topic
of conversation in this city, and
in government circles it has be-
come a prime issue.
Provincial Premier w. A. C.
Bennett, in an effort to settle
the issue, has told reporters he
has offered the Douks> the right

SO far there has been no re-

his Shutout in the seventh when
Sid Gordon scored from third on
