When Governor Baxter in the clos
ing minutes of the S0th Maine Legs
lature sent in his final message to
that body, he announced that he had
signed 1888 acts and 1874 resolves.
Governor Parkhurst before his I'M
timely death had signed one act and
one resolve and three resolves We're
passed by the Legislature over the
veto of Governor Baxter, SO that 1884
acts and 1853 resolves became law
through the work of the Legislature.
The closing hour of the session had
the usual appearance and course OIL
procedure of most sessions. Singing
was general around the House during
the waits necessary to put the last
matters into type and finally the
lively and never firing House song
sters carried the piano into the
third floor rotunda and started a
dance. Ladies were rather less than

half hour was most pleasantly passed
to the delight of the dancers and
spectators.
Over in the Senate the usual staid
ouietness prevailed, with the eXcep-
ton of the several visits of the
House members. Some of the sena-
tors and visitors even availed them
selves of the couches for maps, while
several of them shivered with the
cold. which even overcoats would not
keep out.

the sound of Should Old Acquaint-.

1t was then a general handshaking,
a good bye" period and after that
both branches settled back in their
chairs for the final message from the
Governor and adjourned sine die an
nouncement.

CHAMPLIN co.
OPENS ANNUAL
ENGAGEMENT

Last night at the Opera house
Charles K. Champlin and his asso-
ciate players opened their annual
weeks engagement, presenting for
their first bill that beautiful story
by Jean Webster. Daddy Long Legs"
in which Ruth Chatterton and Mary
Pickford made a big hit. There was
an unusually large attendance and
they left delighted with the excellent
presentation of this great play. Mr.
Champlin himself never appeared to
better advantage than in the role of
Jarvis PendletOn, whose benefactionS
took in the education of Judy Abbott
the rebellious little orphan of the
John Greir Home" Mr.. Champlin's
Interpretation rose to genuine pathos
in the effective closing act, and
throughout was almost reflection of
the ease and quiet force of Lester
Wallack in the days of English COM
edy. 1t was a rarely good piece of
acting, in fact the play was presented
throughout with the fidelity and care
that made it an unusual production.
In his announcement last night Mr.
Champlin gave his personal guaran-
tee for all of his productions that he
will present here this week. All of
his plays are recent Broadway sue
cesses. Mr.. Champlin believes in CIV
ing his patrons nothing but clean,
wholesome plays and the best at pop
ular prices. For today, matinee and
might they will present Geo. Broad

THE Crimson Alibi." This play has
several interesting points, one in
which there is a murder of Joshua
Quincy the most hated man in Berk-
line. The murder is committed in
such a way that it is impossible for
any one to determine who the MUIR
derer is until the final curtain of the
last act. There are seven different
people that think they killed this
man. The box Office is open daily for

quested to secure their seats early

April
1921.
To the Honorable House of Repre-
sentatiVes:
return herewith without my ap-
prevail Resolve in Favor of the Uni
versity of Maine"
Although the University of Maine
strictly speak king is not a State Insti-
! tuition; the state has assumed a def
mite obligation to grant sufficient aid
from the Public Treasury to help
maintain the University on a reason
able and proper basis. The State first
aided this institution in 1867 with an
appropriation of $4,000 and the in
stitution has steadily grown. as has
the States appropriation. until the
sum of $4,000 was appropriated for
each of the years 1919 and 1920.
There is some opposition throughout
the State to the granting of large
amount of aid to the University, but
in my opinion a policy has been def
nitely fixed and the people of the
state as rule are in favor of that
policy and desire its continuance. The
the only institution of higher educa-
ton in the State that can reasonably
expect to receive State aid.
The University began as an agri-

and Of Technology. the Law school
having been abandoned during the
past year | am of the opinion that
the State should make liberal provi-
sion for this institution and + desire
to explain to you what, I believe. the
States appropriation for the coming
fiscal period should be.
A few evenings ago | discussed the
financial affairs of the University
with it's President and certain other
gentlemen interested in the institu-
ton. The figures given me at this
conference showed that the estimated
expenditures required to properly
maintain the University for the next
II months amount to S618.31S. These
figures include all that the author
tiles ask for, except certain new
equipment for the Library and La
boratory which it was admitted can
be dispensed with without interfer-
ing with the work of the institution.
In this total sum of $61S,31S is includ-
ed an annual increase of salarie to
instructors of s7Sa20 over the pre-
vious year, or a AZ per cent. increase
over the actual expenditures under
this single item. The salaries of of

/. l herewith return without my APP

the Revised Statutes Relating to
when no Succession Tax shall be
Assessed on the Stock. Bonds and
Evidences of Debt of Maine Corpor-
atoms"
This Act would make radical
change in our inheritance taxation
laws. Many corporations come to
Maine for the purpose of taking ad-
present system if nom resident of
the State of Maine owns stock, in
these corporations this stock is sub
ject to our collateral inheritance
ment non-residents would not be re-
quired to pay these taxes to the State
of Maine. "A t present the State is re-
ceiving from the estates of non resi-
dents an annual amount of $165, 1855
which is an increase over the past
year of s58,636.15. The Budget re-
port relies upon this income to help
meet the legislative appropriations.
In January and February of 1921 the
amounts to 26.247.36.
The Legislature is under the obfi-
cation to provide sufficient revenue
to meet its appropriation bIfla nd IN
my opinion it is safer to hold fast to
and expect an increase in the corpor-
alton organization taxes and fran
chise taxes which it is alleged would
accrue to the State by reason of the
proposed. The reason advocated for
the change of law is that estates of
nop-residents are put to expense and
delay by reason of our present tax
laws. Upon investigation ] find that
but u few complaints have been made
