POLYOAWY IS not An ISSUE m UTAH POIITIC9

broken up by death, and the remainder
by removal from the State and by church

THE PERSONAL TAX QUESTION.

Despite the apparent disposition on
the part of Congress to meet the ad-
ditional financial needs of Washing
ton by enacting a LAW taxing personal
property, the majority sentiment Of
the local public seems to be decidedly
against such an expcJient.
The hearing before the Senate Dis
trict Committee on the subject en-
phasized aud collated a number of
strong points hitherto brought out.
1t is cOntended that personal tax is
unnecessary, even though the Dis
trict does require large appropria-
tions for municipal betterment. 1t is
urged that realty, which is TO receive
the bulk of the benefits accruiug from
local expansion and improvement.
should bear the greater share of, if
not all, the tax, to bring about deyel-
opment.
Ii is also commended that the United
States Government owes the District
Government a large sum of money
not having paid its one-half of mu.
nicipal expenses for several years
past as provided by the organic law

WHAT MAKES A PLAY? By HzNRE1TA cRosMAz.

The one AID only answer TO the ques-
ton, What Makes Play Coz" is "the
public" One may have a play OF IN
doubted literary merit, end produce il
with a strong cast and lavish scenery.
and it may receive the most fattering
notices from the gentlemen OF the press.
yet it may never draw a dollar from the
dear public You may choose again some
thing that you are so doubtful about that
you dare not expsnd a large amount in
its production. and the critics may liter
ally 'resst" the play and the players. yet
crowds will flock 10 see It for an entire
season.
This nameless something that makes OF
unmakes-that decides for or against
your manuscript All. il I but knew that.
I would be the richest and the wisest
woman in the world Up 70 the present
time no one has solved the question.
There are certain qualifications. how
ever. that must enter into every success
ful play. There must be something novel
or unusual in he matter presented or in
its manner OF presentation There must
be good acting. The play must appeal to
the people either through their hearts or
heads. Il must either touch their good
nature through its powerful comedy or
stir their deeper feelings by its tragic
note
There have been meIodramatic sue
cesses, Intellectual successes and sue
cesses from merely holding a satiricaI
mirror up TO society, and each kind has
its own peculiar following But there is
one characteristic that all plays must
have. and that is r. turalness. Tt is es-
sential also for tho play to arouse emo
tion-it makes little difference what that
emotion is. whether smiles or tears be
its expression
The perscnages in the play must be
undeTstood--their motives must be I'M
derstO0d. and the seory about thens must
be told in a straightforward, connectej
manner. The public is very particular

it in his business. AS a rule ne must
decide instantly. Minutes mean thousands
Of dollars. What other man Of eighty
eight is capable Of filling his place.
Mr.. Sage is a pleasant man TO talk
with. and not difficult Of access 20 those
who have any right to his time. His
well-RnoWn cccentricities in money
matters have been distorted 20 his dis
credit. No man has been more lam

men in Wall Street have been unset

stories do not so readily become cur

matters Of businesses.
Mr. Sage will readily be recognized
by his newspaper portraits. He Ioo6s

And it is added that. if the Govern
ment should make good its share of
past expenses, the District would
have a surplus instead Of a def
and would not be compelled to devise
measures for realizing additional
revenue.
The personal tax question has been
before the community i'm tangible
form for some time, and there has
been practically nothing said by rep
rcsentative bodies and citizens in its
favor. Any revenue-raising measure
is bound TO be unpopular in some
quarters, and in meeting the emer-
gcncy that which seems TO be the
most equitable and to fall upon those
who are to receive the lions share of
the benefits should be adopted.
If the United States Government
owes the District enough money to
meet present demands and make an
additional tax unnecessary. Uncle
Sam should see that it is paid. Until
