Armistice Agreed to in St. Cloud.

Last July the public service COM
pany in St. Cloud, the electrical light
and power company, doubled it's rates.
This action precipitated a veritable
revolution among the patrons of the
company. Some business houses fiat
ly refused to accept the increased
rates.
Matters reached climax last Mon
day when a mass meeting was held
in St. Cloud to consider the situation
in reference to bill introduced by
Representative Pattison in the house.
This bill provided that cities of the
third class would have the opportuni-
ty to vote bond issues for municipal
ownership and the control of public
utilities. A fve-eighths vote would
be required to pass the bond issue.
Senator Sullivan also promised to sup
port the. bill.
In the face of this situation, the
public service company agreed to re-
turn temporarily to the rates in effect
before July 1. In the meantime an
expert is to investigate the question
of rates in St. Cloud.

State Extends Tax Date.

One of our representatives, Charles
F. Serline, Monday under suspen-
sion Of the rules pushed bill through
the legislature extending the date on
which personal property taxes must
be paid, without having a penalty be-
ling attached for delinquency, from
March 1 to April /. ~
Mr.. Serline's reasons for offering
this measure was that this year many
would be unable to pay their personal
property tax before March 1 owing
to tight money and various causes
which have made it impossible in
many instances for taxpayers to pay
up their personal taxes. The conten-
ton of the author is that the measure
will aid those who for reasons could
not pay their taxes, and the bill does
not in any way benefit those who have
paid or were able to pay taxes before
delinquent and that the measure will
benefit only those who were in need
VI dOUlClOlldl ClIl0 Ill WHICH 10 make
payment.
In securing the enactment of this
legislation Mr.. Serline has shown the
people great consideration which they
certainly will appreciate.
The Bill.
Section l. That all personal proper
ty taxes due and payable in the year
1921 shall not become delinquent nor
shall any penalty attach to the same

Section 2. All unpaid personal
property taxes due and payable in the
year 1921 shall be deemed delinquent
on April next after they become due,
and thereupon penalty of ten per
cent shall attach and be charged upon
all such taxes.
Section 8. This act shall take ef-
feet and be in force from and after

INCOME TAX POINTERS.

form With Statute.

Pertaining to Losses Sustained in
Business Claims Must Con-
form With Statute.
y Numerous errors in claims for de-
auctions have been discovered in tax
payers returns.
To be allowed, deductions for losses
must be confined to the following
classes: Losses sustained in trade or
business; losses sustained in transac-
lions entered into for profit, though
not connected with trade or business;
losses sustained of property not con-
nected with trade or business of aris-
ing from fires, shipwreck, storms or
other casualty, or from theft. To the
extent any of the above loses are COM
pensated for by insurance they are not
deductible.
To be allowed as deduction in the
return for 1920 loss must have been
actually sustained during that year.
A taxpayer may feel certain that real
estate owned by him is worth less than
what he paid for it. A merchant may
be convinced that certain stock can
not be sold unless marked below cost.
In neither event, however, is he enti-
tied to claim for deduction unless the
loss is made absolute by sale or other
disposition Of the property.
Claims for losses must conform
closely to the wording of the statute.
A loss sustained in the sale Of an au-
tomobile purchased for personal use
is. not deductible, because, it is not a
transaction "entered into for profit. "
A loss sustained by taxpayer in the
sale of his home is not deductiblc for
the reason that ordinarily when man
buys residence and moves into it he
has no intention of selling and has not
entered into transaction for prifit. y

Our Red Sisters Have the Bug Too.
"Old Town, Maine, Feb. 2s.-Indian
women of the Penobscot tribe today
started on the war path to obtain the
right to vote in the tribal elections
and share in the conduct of reservation
affairs. Already some forward-look-
ing squaws have nailed the suffrage
colors to the totem pole with the as
sertion that a grand lady Sachem
would make a wiser chief than any
brave that ever wove basket or built
a canoe.
"Last night the new women of an
ancient people began rejoicing when
they received a ruling from Attorney
General Shaw that they could go as
far as the tribe allowed, for the state
would remain neutral. He said that
tribal suffrage was entirely a matter
for domestic adjustment. The ruling
was in answer to letter received by
the governor from Mrs. Peter Nicolar
Of Old Town."
The women of Princeton can SYM
pathize with their red sisters of Maine.
Women of every color and hue are go
ing to be decidedly jealous of their
new right Of suffrage, and woe to the
chieftains who make up their political
states without consulting their sister
voters.

LEGION WINS RUBBER.
Well-Played Game in Which Milaca
Cubs Lose Contest by Close
Score of 81 to rs.
Cubs Start With Flourish, but Their
Superior Training" Fails to
Come to Their Rescue.

The legionaires won the third or
deciding game from the Milaca Cubs
in their play for the tie at the high
school auditorium last Thursday.
These teams had previously won a
game apiece. The Cubs won the first
game on their floor at Milaca by a
Ecore of % to 10, and the next game
went to the locals at the armory,
when the spacious size of the floor
seemed to daze the Cubs and they be-
came disoragnized and collapsed. So
it was decided to play the rubber on
the high school foor-a floor nearer
the size of that where the Milacaites
play.
The manner in which the Cubs
started the game impelled the local
fans to stand on their hind legs and
take notice, for they scored five points
before the legionaires awoke to the
facts that they were playing basket
ball.
Smith then got in shot and scored
the first basket for Princeton, follow
ing which Milbrath and Schmidt joined
in and secured seven more while the
Cubs were regaining their wind, but
they came back good and strong and,
before the whistle blew, came within
one of tying the score-16 to Is in
favor of Princeton.
When the second half started the
fans saw some of the prcttiest basket
ball they had ever witnessed. Both
teams were on their toes and played
for all they were worth, seesawing
back and forth, first one and then the
other being point or two in the
lead. After the first 10 minutes, of
the second half Milaca had lead Of,
two points, but the lcgionaires put
forth their best efforts and scored!
three baskets, putting them four
points ahead. From here on the steam
seemed to have been taken out of the
Cubs and they realized they were
beaten. The game ended Princeton
81, Milaca rs.
The fans were treated to one of the
best games Of basketball they had
seen this season. The teams worked
at high speed throughout the contest.
No player starred, but each tried to
do his best. Free throwing showed
much improvement and saved the
game for the legionaires. Had they
taken more interest in this feature of
the game earlier they would have won
every contest this season. The line

ty Over the Heavyweights of
the OppOsition.

ty Over the Heavyweights of
the Opposition.
The high school basketball team
again demonstrated it's ability to play
championship ball when it defeated
the strong Milaca quint on their home
floor last Friday evening by the close
score Of Is to II.
This was the big game of the sea-
son for both teams, and both were de-
termincd to win. Milaca was out to
avenge it's defeat at the hands of the
Princeton basketeers early in the sea-
son on the Princeton floor and the
Princeton team was out to convince
it's rivals that what has been done
can be done again. The promise of a
battle royal drew many Princeton
fans to the game and feeling ran high
on both sides of the floor.
Early in the first period Nygren
Gagged free throw and from then on
Princeton never lost the lead. It did
not take long to prove that in order
to win the Princeton players would
have to play basketball. The low
beams in the ceiling time and again
stopped their long shots which have
proved so effective all season. The
Milaca fve-man defense, effectively
cut off most chances to advance the
ball, but the Princeton team sue
ceeded in getting through occasionally
in spite of this. On the other hand the
weight of the Milaca players was q
great asset to them in advancing the
ball, for it is a rather difficult PROPOSE
ton for a 130-pound boy to stop a
210-pound man who dribbles down the
floor. The half ended 9 to A..
In the second half Milaca broke
through the, Princeton defense time
and again and secured a number of
shots because the small Princeton
guards were unable to reach much
higher than the tops of their oppon-
ents' heads. The guarding was close
enough, however, to make most of
these shots go wild, and when the
final whistle blew Princeton still led
with score of 13 to II. -....
Both teams made four field goals,
Milaca had nine free throws and made
three. Princeton had eight chances
and Gagged five of them.
Although the game was close the
best team won. The Princeton team
showed more clever playing, more
agressiveness and more accuracy in
shooting. The chief asse' of the Mil
AGA team is their size, and on a bigger
floor with a ceiling high enough to
allow long shots, the Princeton team
would be a sure winner. The lineup

u. S. Court Decision
LegaIizes PiCketing
(By Federated Press)

New York-Offcials here of local
and international labor unions are of
the opinion that the United States
Supreme Court decision on picketing
legalizes a principle which organized
labor has long contended is rightful
and constitutional one. The decision
contains, they declared, after study
ingi t, recognition of the right to
picket more sweeping and satisfactory
than any previously rendered by a
high court. The ruling of the court
that it is lawful to have missionaries
around plant in time of strike, In
the opinion of Benjamin Schlesinger,
president of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union, "undoubted-
ly upholds peaceful picketing. Organ
lied labor has never approved OF
violence or intimidation by pickets in
labor troubles, and is glad to see a
ban placed on it by the courts. Labor
unions will undoubtedly find some re-
lief in this decision if the lower courts
can be made to follow the precedent
laid down by the Supreme Court"
William F. Kehoe, secretary of the
Central Trades and Labor Council of
Greater New York, while declaring he
was opposed to the use of any kind
of injunctions in labor disputes, de-
clared the decision undoubtedly legal
ICES peaceful picketing.
"Organized labor" he said, "has al
ways contended that it has the right
to station pickets about a plant in
time of strikes, and to attempt by
peaceful means to persuade men from
returning to work"
Hugh Frayne, international organ
izer for the American Federation of
Labor, said organized labor was
