PRIVATE HOUSES EXEMPT.
Schedule f Win Apply to Corpora
tions Alone.

On the very last day that returns un-
der Schedule f of the tax laws can
be made to the tax office President
Dole and his Cabinet took final action
on the protest to the enforcement of
Schedule E, entered by a committee
of business men.
The decision of the Executive is
that all firms doing private business
on purely mercantile lines will be ex-
cluded from the operations of the
Schedule. Corporations will not be ex-
empt.
Schedule e asks for a statement Of
the business done by every firm dur
ing the year. The amount of the
gross receipts, expenses and net prof
its are all to be returned to the tax
office. a tax is imposed on the net
profits, which the business men claim
works nothing more or less than a
double taxation on them. The author
of the bill insists that it is a Just in
come tax.

the men enjoy this boon above all 9TH
ers is using very modest language.
Tongues that were chained to the rigid
discipline of prison gave vent to their
happy liberty in enthusiastic greetings
to fellow unfOrtunates. Hearty, hon.
est handshakes that meant more than
the automatic formula of everyday
greeting were INDUCED in with a sim
cerity that was plainly stamped on the
faces of what the world is wont to call
Minnesota's social outcasts. 1t is to
be said to the credit of all that every
inmate behaved like gentleman. This
fact will tend to increase amusements
and an extension of the park privileges
on future holidays.

ECHOES OF THE HOLIDAY.

A few hours of comparative freedom
to prisoner is something the outsider
is incapable of approximately valuing.
Imagine yourself practically deprived
of speech for several years, with the
privilege of speaking only on stated
occasions and you may conjecture with
what anticipation such occasions would
be looked forward to. If you want an
actual sample of it just run afoul of
the "peace and dignity of the state of
Minnesota and we will guarantee that
if you are not banker or an alderman
you will in time recognize what boon
is a few hours of freedom.
k
TO see the men here as they greeted
one another on last Saturday stranger
would think there had been a vast ex-
panse of land and water between them
for considerable time. Strange as it
may seem, there is a bond of fellow
ship between the inmates of a prison
that is more sincere and thoroughly
democratic than is usually known out
side of cOmmunistic fiction such as
BelIamys "Looking Backward. or
Michaels' ''Looking Further Forward. -
We feel as brothers in misfortune and
on such occasions as last Saturday,
"degenerate" though we are presumed
to be, the milk of human kindness"
was not lacking within the limited
bounds of it's expansion in prison life.

Warden WOlfer made the chit of the
day" during the chapel exercises. To
fully understand the applause with
which it was received it would be nee
essary to have been in the chapel hall.
Every inmate thoroughly appreciated
it.. On the rostrum the prison choir

desk or pulpit. On this occasion the
gramaphone, with it's sounding tube
staring at the audience, was on the
right of the desk. After the prison
choir had finished what we are COM
PEELED to call its Tragedy of Discords,"
the Warden, as master of ceremonies,
arose to introduce the next feature of
the program. He looked at the prison
choir, cast glance at the gramaphone,
and then said, in very quiet but ex-
pressive manner: "Boys, we have got
another machine on this side," pointing
to the gramaphone, "and 1 do not be-
lieve it will repeat the music just given
by the choir The manner in which
this was said, as the choir fully de-
served the hot shot, brought down the
house in an outburst of laughter and

Speaking to an inmate recently as to
what progress he was making in a
number of studies he had undertaken
he said, "My wheels are stopped; l can
not, or do not seem able, to do any,
thing" This is but another case of
having ''too many irons in the fire. -
Some of the inmates expect to make
up for all past errors in their educa-
ton by undertaking stupendous
course of educational training while in
prison. Don't attempt too much. Bet
ter be master of one accomplishment
than to have a useless smattering of
dozen. Whatever you undertake to
learn in prison during spare time, do
we'll. Put your body and soul into it
and the result will we'll reward the ef-
fort thus made.

The gramaphone has come, has sung
and conquered. Every inmate has
voted it success and pleasant
change from the ordinary holiday pro-
gram. One thing decidedly in favor
of the little instrument is that it
pounds right along without any cere-
mony or urging; never complains of a
cold when requested to sing, and will
not offer as an excuse for not dancing
that it has not brought its "footnotes."

Saturday last was jOyously celebrated
as the connecting link reminding us of
the freedom our fathers fought for and
which we have voluntarily forsaken
for a time. Tender recOllectiOns were
recalled to many who were but mere
boys during the trying days of the
war, when every childish pastime was
tinged with a militant spirit. Though
Memorial Day is now looked upon
more as holiday than HOLIDAY there
are those to whom it brings cherished
thoughts of father or grandfather
numbered among the nations heroes
whose memory shall ever stand with
us as an incentive to patriotism and
reminder of the cost of that glorious
liberty all may enjoy through the sac
rifices they made thirty odd years ago.
At ten o'clock the inmates were all
seated in the chapel. The exercises
opened with song by the prison choir.
Then followed the invocation prayer
by Chaplain Albert.
The program proper was then taken
up. Warden Wolfer acted as master
of ceremonies introducing Secretary
Hart as the speaker of the day. Mr.
Hart gave us very interesting speech,
recalling memories of the war as they
were impressed on the younger gener-
alton at that period, interspersing his
talk with applicative anecdotes and
pathetic incidents showing the herOism
of the women of those dreadful days
when fathers, husbands, sons and
brothers were taken from them to go
to the front in answer to LincOln's call.
These women, as the speaker showed,
were not wanting in the spirit of patri-
otism which pervaded the sterner sex
in those days.
The Warden then introduced to us
the gramaphone and its operator.
Many of the boys who had read of, but
never heard, the gramaphone or phon-
ograph were delightfully."- surprised at
the amount and versatility of the
amusement this little machine dis
pensed. Following is the program as
rendered by the gramaphone which the
boys all say was the best selection of
entertainment ever heard in this prison:
COrnet Solo,.
Vocal Solo. when You Know The Girl You
Love Loves You. ................. ...
Banjo Solo,. ."Darkies' PATROL
Topical Song. Put Me Off at Buffalo,
Morning Scene On The Farm. -
Grand March. lei Captain as played by The
Marine Band. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
'The Spirit Of '76''. -.
Every number of this program was
heartily applauded and encored. The
last piece, "The Spirit of '76 aroused
the greatest enthusiasm. The playing
of the fife and drum corps, the cheer
ing of the populace as Washington and
his army marched through the streets
of Boston, and the occasional tOlling
of the old South Church bell were thor
oughly realistic. Occasionally, one
strong voice could be heard above the
concourse with strong "hurrah for
General Washington" This was suffi-
cient to cause tumultuOus handicap
ping among the actual audience to
drown the voice of the gramaphone
cheering.
Warden Wolfer now informed us
that we should be in full possession of
the park to talk and play or do what
we pleased until one o'clock when din

There's right way and a wrong way
TO march through this earthly life;
One, smooth path known as Folly
Leads to bitterness and strife.
Yet, some are ever TRAVELLING it,
Though it's paved with broken hearts,
That have fallen by the wayside
Pierced by Mammon's poisoned darts.
There's another road that's sleeper,
Quite thOrny, too, in places,
It's filled by men who always have
Content stamped on their faces;
For they know that it's the right road,
Though the way is rough at times,
To the fOunt of purest pleasure
Set for him who upward climbs.

If the Minneapolis judge who SEN
fenced the writer was aware of the
boomerang effects of the punishment
incident to the notoriety we got as
"knowing as much as the average shy
ster lawyer" he would have requested
our dismissal ere this. We are often
called upon to answer questions that
would astound learned lawyer. When
it is taken into consideration that our
legal acumen does not extend beyond
the indefniteness of reformatory
sentence, or tomcat's repertoire OF
harmony, our position is certainly an
unenviable one.

worth. He Immediately hied to his

official that "there was no gambling in

his aid in getting back the lost money
from the slick Col. Taylor. The ques-
ton arises, "What would Mr.. Banker
