AT ST. MARY'S HALL

This evening there will be a per-
'ormance OF TONY, the Convict" in
st. Mary's Hall by the cast that made
such a hit last week in its presenta-
ton.
These young people who gave a
highly creditable show in the former
production. will no doubt duplicate. if
not excel their first efforts.
Besides the cOmedy-drama there
will be specialties by Miss ALA Can't
Ter, Miss Helen l.. Wilson and John +.
Martin. Miss Cantler will sing Why
Did You Make Me Care" while Miss
Wilson will render "Byelow," and Mr.
Martin will be more than pleasing in
his song, "Oh, BY Jingo"; Miss Lena
Lorea and Mr. Turner in Jazz Babies
Ball'' are sure to please. These spec
ialties are more than pleasing as at
tested by the encores that each re-
ceived on the previous occasions.
Each OF the performers is deter
mined to make this performance the
very best ever put on the boards at St.
Mary's Hall, and if they can succeed
in eclipsing the other two they will,
indeed, go 'over the top"

A LITERARY MASTERPIECE

The Townley kept press Of this
county, the Cavalier Chronicle, de-
votes the greater part of the edi-
torial page last week to show up
the reason why the farmers of this
county pay from one to two hundred
per cent more taxes under the Town
ley regime than they. did before
their laws went into effect. He
first starts out by giving the editor
of this paper a lot of blarney by
saying that he understands that we
are as fine fellow as ever walked
in shoe leather, etc., and then quotes
a number of things that we have
said with reference to increased
valuation of lands, etc. He tries to
infer that the increase in the value
of land which has been coming on
gradually for several years natural
ly would increase the taxes. But he
!forgets to explain why there was a
sudden raise in one year. Every
line in the article is evasive but he
makes the general allegation that
the old "gang school, is responsible
for our statements.
How a person could assimilate so
much nonsense in the same space
we are at loss to understand. He
talks about what great things are
being done for the farmers by the
Townley program and what bright
future there is in store for the
farmers of this state if their policy
is upheld. Great guns! If doubl-
ing the taxes, taking nearly mil
lion dollars from the municipalities
and city corporations in the shape
Of automobile license, adding nearly
= half million dollars in gasoline tax
and putting it into the state fund
for the "Big Five" to meter out to
their political friends is of help to
the farmers Of North Dakota we
are at loss to see It.
AS matter of fact land values
have been going up with everything
else. In Iowa, Illinois and other
states value Of real estate has ad-
vanced far more than they have in
this state. It is these farmers who
came from the states south Of us
and the $3.50 wheat prices that have
advanced the price Of land. It is
not the Townley machine under the
guise Of the Nonpartisan party.
II Editor Kelly's article should be
read by people who are familiar
with the facts regarding the mis-
management Of our state affairs and
who do not know the editor Of this
