the Stage Settings.

1.-THE Beggar's Opera" is now being
presented in. New York with the COM
pany that was gathered for the Lon
don revival, and settings which also
crossed the ocean. 1t was not that 1t
was cheaper to bring the scenery
over, but simply. because it would
have been impossible to duplicate the
original sets without doing q great
deal of Eighteenth century research
work that would mean going over the
same ground that had been carefully
covered by the London designer.
The situation is hardly parallel
to that Of '..Her Own Way" the Clyde
Fitch comedy which could not be
played for several days after the date
set for the London opening because
the scenery had been put on a steamer
other than that taken by the company.
Fitch had written this play with intri'
cate, though upobtrusive, scenic effects,
constantly in thought. The result was
that broadly speaking, the, special
scenery for this play actually did some

Attorney General Clifford L. Hilton's

TONNAGE TAX LEGAL
Attorney General Hilton Holds Pro-
posals Constitutional. Measure
Now Held Sure of Passage.

St. Paul-Drafting of new iron ore
tonnage tax bill on lines suggested by
Attorney General Clifford L. Hilton is
under way. 1t will be introduced by
the tax committee of the house as a
committee bill, and it's passage is con-
sidered a certainty.
In his opinion, Mr.. Hilton says:
81 am Of the opinion that the Legis.
lature has the power to impose an oc.
cupation tax by providing for the taxa
ton of those engaged in mining sub
stantially as provided for in the sub
mitted bills. 1t is not restrained from
so doing by any provision Of the state
or federal constitution"
The attorney general, however, holds
the tax should be in addition to all the
present taxes levied.
The opinion was interpreted by sup
porters of tonnage tax legislation as
making practically certain adoption of
a tonnage tax schedule by this session
of the Legislature.
Attorney General Hilton's opinion
given to the house subcommittee holds
as follows:
First-The tonnage tax as an occu-
pational tax is constitutional.
Second-That the bill if passed
should make the tonnage tax surtax,
that u.s. a tax in addition to other taxes
now levied on mining properties and
ore.
Third-The bill should be amended
to provide for a deduction from the
amount of the tonnage tax, the adva-
loren tax levied on ores for the year
in which the tonnage tax is levied.
Fourth-The title OF the bill should
be amended to correspond to the sug-
gestions in this opinion.
Fifth-The Warner bill, which pro.
vides for constitutional amendment
authorizing the levying of a tonnage
tax and also the creation of perma-
nent trust fund, into which half the
receipts from the tonnage tax are to
be paid, does not violate any provision
of the constitution of the United
States. Such trust fund may be made
inviolable, the interest and income to
be used only for the purpose of such
trust fund.

ever on Rheumatism.
A very common form Of Rheu..
matism is caused by millions of
tiny disease germs which infest the
blood. The one and only sensible
treatment. therefore. is one which
cleanses the blood of these germs,
and routs them entirely out Of the

"MAIN STREET"
BY WALT MASON


The Main Street" boom is dying
down-and | won't worry when it's
dead-and once again the country
town begins to raise its humble head
Poor country town! The home of
hicks, whose souls can't rise above the
dust, where all aesthetic games and
tricks are looked upon with deep dis
gust In gopher towns I've lived and
loved, and there learned to swat my
tyre, and as along Main Street /
showed, l saw a whole lot to admire.
And there I've known the finest gents,
great fellows, large of mind and heart;
| wonder why they pitched their tents
so far from Culture and from Art. The
country town inspires the jokes of
specialists in caustic mirth; but there
you'll often find the folks who are the
salt of this old earth. The country
town has many rubes, who on their
idle errands trot. and if you only look
for boobs, as Lewis did, you'll find a
lot. But if you look for t'other kind,
strong men who ornament the race,
and women gracious and refined, you'll
lind them, also, in the place. Go, visit
now the Hall of Fame, and mark the
High Nobs looking down, and figure
out how many came from Gopher or
some smaller town. The Main Street
book is not so bad, as twaddle, for the
twaddling mob; but as picture OF our
grad il is the poorest sort of daub. --.
