THE MUTNY" AND
1.-THE CURE" SUNBEAM;
Chaplin and Myrtle Gonzalez
Will Be Attraction at Popular
Playhouse.

Her >ather5 d. hard listed sea cap
tain, had willed that she should
marry the mate of his sailing ship;
the Alden Besse The girl decided to
marry the man of her own choice.
Believing that he had cleared the way
to his will being done. by killing his
daughters husband, Captain Whita-
ker forced his daughter to go aboard
the Alden .Besse and sail on a. voy-
age to China. When well at sea,
Whitaker tried to force his daughter
to accept a marriage with the first
mate, to be performed by the Cap
tain. This mutiny of love led directly
to a battle among the seamen. and
when the elements conspire to wreck
the ship and throw the heroine upon
the rocks, almost helpless, fate per-
mitted her husband to wade into the
foam and drag his wife and her baby
to safety on the beach. This is but
a skeleton Of the story to be told in
Bluebird .photoplays at the Sunbeam
theater on Sunday, June "a, when
"Mutiny" will be the attraction with
Myrtle Gonzalez, Val Paul and George
Hernandez playing the principal
roles.
Chaplin, Too.
THE Immigrant" should be one of
Mr.. Chaplin's most popular creations.
It is the result of many weeks Of hard
thinking and planning and the best
thing that can be said in favor Of the
play is that Chaplin himeslf is salts
fled with it, which is prima facie evil
dence that it is at least technically
perfect. Apprival of the story by the
public is all that remains and there
seems small doubt that THE Immi-
grant" will be given warm welcome.
Charley Chaplin will also be seen

economic ideas of justice.
This campaign for greater pro-
duction is all right. But why not
seize the idle lands and put them to
use?'
Now according to the New York
Tribune of May %, there seems p
good chance Of. carrying out Mr.
kresley's suggestion. The Tribune's
washington correspondent reports
that both Secretary Lane and Carl
Vrooman, assistant secretary of Agri-
culture, have openly declared for
taxation of land values as a means of
raising revenue and of forcing idle
land into use. The report states
also:
THE Administration will compel
the cultivation or utilization Of I'm
used lands throughout the country
through scheme of heavy taxation
for idle lands"

FEDERAL TAXATION OF LAND VALUES
. URGED by MASTER OF: STATE CRANCE

Recently Secretary of the Inter-
Tor, Franklin K. Lane, warned the
private owners Of 100000 acres of
idle land near the. & : rnment
reclamation projects, that if they
failed to cultivate their holdings, the
government might confiscate them.
mo one has right to what he does
not use," said the Secretary The
report of this warning brought the
follow ing letter to ecretary Lane
from G. B. Kregley, master of the
Washington State Grange:
Good, Mr.. Secretary. But why
not just now confiscate for use the
millions of acres held by spectators
all over our broad land? In Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota and
Montana, there is idle land enough
held out of use by spectators to
feed an empire. Every loyal farmer
will gladly join in the campaign to
Feed the Nations; but it rather
grlnds on him to farm his quarter
section industriously, and see three
quarters Of spectators land lie idle
alongside of him. Not only does it
lie idle, but it is a. breeding ground
for all manner of pests to destroy
the crops of the industrious farmer.
"The day of speculation in food
supplies must come to an end, and at
the same time let us bring to an end
all private ownership of unused land.

AT THE LYCEUM.

The Baldwin Players will present at
the Lyceum theater all next week
starting Sunday matinee, matinee
Wednesday and Saturday, Common
Clay which is the highest. royalty
play that has ever been presented in
Duluth. This play was presented in
New York for almost two years. It
has been one of the biggest successes
ever presented on the American stage.
Common Clay is the story@of Ellen
Neal, a. housemaid in the house of a
rich family in the middle west, who is
led into an adventure with the son on
his vacation from a college in the
east. The play developes from the
comic and CHASTITY efforts of the FAM
lily to suppress the case when a baby
is born to her. They seek to prove
that she is dancehall graduate OF
unsavory history and succeed, in the
process, in confronting their unhappy
star witness with the peril Of criminal
prosecution for seduction:
The unconsciOusly brutal conversa-
ton between the men seeking to ad
just the case behind closed doors is
Mr.. Kinkead's best work. Much OF
the text Of his play has genuine salt,
and although occasionally his pen has
slipped to betray character into un-
natural eloquence or pungency, the
bulk of the dialogue is immeasurab1y
better than the stuff that is so often
spouted month after month on the
New York stage.
The climax comes when, with Mrs.
Neal on the witness stand, the lawyer,
for the defense seeks to draw out
some damaging material concerning
the girls earlier story and stumbles
on the fact that the girl is his own
child, the hapless legacy of just an
other such adventure, one that he had
thought was written only on the pages
of a book closed and sealed 20 years
before

SOCK AND BUSKIN
PLAYERS TO GO TO
LAKOTA SATURDAY

A group of players Of the Sock and
Buskin society Of the University of
North Dakota under the direction of
Professor Frederick H. Koch and
Miss Ethel E. Halcrow, will leave for

original plays which the program will
include. These three plays have been
making a big hit wherever produced
by the university amateurs, and will
be staged tomorrow night as usual
with the society's own portable stage
settings.
The plays have all been written in
the English department Of the Uni
versity Of North Dakota under the d.
rection of Professor Koch in his
course in the Technique Of the
Drama. Added to the two great
pageants written in collaboration by
students under Professor Koch's di-
rection and produced by the Sock and
Busktn society, these plays form the
foundation of h building up Of a
North Dakota drama which already
has reached proportions worthy of the
national recognition it is receiving.

are Florence Gallup, Jean Lenentine,
Gladys Powell, Arthur Cloeingh, Ben
Sherman, Melvin johnson and Wesley
Johnston.

"0BEY THE LAW AND KEEP YOUR
MOUTH SHUT" WARNS SHERIFF
FOR BENEFIT OF WAR C0SSIPS

"Ohey the law and keep your
mouth Shut" says Sheriff A. F. Turn
err in a proclamation issued today
urging citizens Of Grand Forks to re-
frain from public discussion Of deli
cate subjects arising out of the pres
ent war with Germany.
The proclamation, which was issued
as a means Of cooperating with the
federal government in an effort to
suppress talk of a seditious nature, is
as follows:
II. A. F. Turner, sheriff Of Grand
Forks county. North Dakota, deem 1t
NAL proclamation to assure all resi-
dents of foreign birth that even in the
event Of the United States becoming
actively involved in the great Euro
pean war, no citizen Of any foreign
power, resident ofNGrand Forks coun-
ty, need fear any invasion Of his per-
sonal or property rights so long as he
goes peaceably about his business and
conducts himself in a law-abiding
manner.
1.-THE United States has never, in
any war, conf1scated the property of
any foreign resident unless by his own
hostile acts he made 1t necessary.
II take this formal means Of de-
claring to all foreign born residents
that they will be protected in the
ownership of their property and mon
ey and that they will be free from
personal molestation. SO long as they
obey the laws Of the state and nation
and the ordinances of the city.
IT urgently request that all our
people refrain from public discussion
of questions involved in the present
crisis and maintain calm and consid-
crate attitude toward all without re-
gard to their nationality"
Let it be understood that every
citizen owes undivided allegiance to
the American flag, that he is expected
to loyalty fulfill all obligations which
citizenship and residence impose up
on him, and that any acts, however
slight, tending to give aid or comfort
to the enemy is treason, for which Sc
we're penalties are provided in addi-
ton to that punishment which public
opinion upon the memory Of all trail
tors in all lands.
"Obey the law. keep your mouth
shut.

TO RESERVE
GRAIN USED BY
BIG DISTILLERS

Washington, April 13.-Plans to re-
serve for food purposes, possibly TO-
600, 900 bushels of grain annually now
used for distilled spirits and for in
creasing government revenue, $685.
10000 per year, were laid before the
senate agricultural committee today
by Jos de Bark and Levi Cooke, at
torney for the National Distillers' and
Wholesale Liquor Dealers association.
The plan provides for taxes on
grain. molasses and the material en-
tering into the manufacture of dis
titled spirits when in the distillers'
hands which would cut down produc-
ton and force into consumption spir-
its now in existence. Mr.. Cooke told
the committee between Is, 900, 900 and
100000 900 bushels Of grain and be-
Ions of molasses would be saved.
No bill was before the COMMITTEES
on the subject, but the delegation Of
fered the plan because they have seer
published reports that an effort might
be made to stop entirely the manufac-
ture Of spirits during the war. They
estimated $4,000. 900 gallons Of dis
titled spirits would be required each
year for manufacture Of munitions.

sued an appeal to the young men of
Grand Forks who hope to join that
organization to enlist at once,
Since Its return from the border
the company has enlisted 20 addition

bership up to II. Under the new or
ders only 20 additional members can
be received. However. 1t is expected
that when national guard organiza-
tions are called into service they will
be permitted to organize to the full

1t is further pointed out that many
young men who have held back from
