JESSE JAMES AS THE HERO
Another Thriller Full of NIoksIpIated
RevOlvers and Tender Love
Scenes,

Nine different ndclOel-plated revOdvers
were drawn an average Of six times
each in the first act Of THE James
Boys" at the Krug theater last night, much
to the delight of an audience that taxed
the capacities of the building. Was it a
good show? Well, you just ought a
been there. Right in the first act Jesse
gets the drop on the villain who seeks
to take advantage of him in a poker game.
The heroine, Zelda, also appears in this
act, and thereafter her life and that of
Jesse are wrapped in one. She is a sweet,
young thing, with high ideals, who ap-

except in the sentimental part, where she
wears white. with flower in her hair
Jesse isn't the desperate he is repre-
scented to have been by the records. No,
he was driven to it by another real des-
perado that burned his home and killed
his brother and sister. Jesse was really
a good boy, according to the melodrama,
who loved his mother and liked nothing
better than picking wild flowers for his
sweetheart. Had circumstances not in
terfered he might have been a farmers
boy or a delivery boy for a butcher He,
himself, says so in the second act, when
he exclaims. "Oh, how differently my life
might have been had not fate conspired
against meh" And just then Zelda enters
dressed in white and they pledge each other
with a kiss while soft music plays. CYou
could have heard pin drop) Then Hymen
fees while the posse enters to capture
Jesse and his brother Frank. They nearly
have them, and the Kisses are already
coming from the gallery when Hands
up!' and there stands Zelda with a re-
volver covering the sheriff and his posse
In the third act the villain, who pursues
Jesse relentlessly in spite Of the latterSs
forbearance toward him, plans a train
robbery. The switch has been turned and
the desperadoes have retired to await the
coming of the Missouri Pacific express
Just at this moment who should appear
but Zelda! Yes, sir The villains seize
her-this fellow, the main villain-he had
loved her, but she had scorned him, for
she loved Jesse--well they grab her and
tie her to the track. You can hear the
express coming, the Missouri Pacific ex-
press, whistling VIII no one save her?
Yes, just in time Jesse appears, sees her
and rescues her Just as the train rushes
past.
The last act is the place for the soft
music. "Jesse's home in st. Joseph. Do
nestle happiness. The serpent enters
Eden. Death of Jesse James" There
wasn't dry glove in the house.
Judging by the wild demonstrations OF
the large crowd, THE James Boys scored
a grand success. It will be repeated to-
night and tomorrow at a matinee and night

the station that he was Borsky, though he
was well known to all the officers.

HITCHCOCK TALKS ON TAXATION
Expresses Belief Income Tax VIII
Finally he Declared Con-
stitutionaI.

Congressman G.. M. Hitchcock delivered
the principal address at the meeting of the
Equitable Tax league of Omaha at the
club rooms. 1917 Farnam street, Thursday
evening. About a dozen members of the
club were present, the meeting being pre-
sided over by Chairman H. A. Rice, with
]. ]. Points acting secretary pro tenn.
Mr.. Hitchcock said In part: lone OF the
serious questions of the future is that OF
the various forms of the taxation question.
The complex nature OF our system OF govern
ment permits federal, state, county and
municipal taxation an we'll as school dis
trict taxation. The general government
derives about s2,0Oo.OO0 per day from
revenue taxation in It's various phases
which is levied upon the people in proper
ton to what they consume. The man with
a large family is the heaviest taxpayer.
The consumer pays the tax that Is exacted
by the government from the importer as q
protective tariff. Taxation is not based
upon equality. but on consumption. In the
system Of state taxation there is no way
to hold any one responsible for excessive
taxation. I believe that the levying OF an
income tax is inevitable, and that some
future congress will pass an income tax
law and that some future supreme court
will declare such a law constitutional
The signs Of the times indicate that a
change is coming over our supreme and
other courts and that decisions are now
being made by these courts that would
have been impossible ten years ago. The
courts are beginning to realize that the
people are the rulers"
Mr.. Quinby spoke briefly upon the sub.
ject Of the single tax idea as espoused
originally by Henry George. A lively and
interesting discussion followed. which was
participated in by Mr.. Hitchcock. Mr.
Points. Mr. Quinby and others.
