MARKET VALUE
RULES.
The license tax is based on the
market value of metals produced and
is payable annually into the state
treasury. The amount is determined
by the state board Of equalization
from varifed reports filed by the pro-
Queer, and in this connection the
board has authority to examine the
/ books of smelters and reduction
works if it deems such examination
necessary or advisable.
In arriving at the market values Of
the metals average quotations in the
Engineering and Mining Journal
Press are used as a base and from
these average prices an equitable
amount is deducted to determine the
Montana value.
The same average prices govern all
assessments. Under this law the
metals producers will pay approx
mately 100000 into the state treas
ury this year as against S78,073 in
1923 and S82,102 in 1924.
The total state tax in 1917 was
S22, 95O,000. In 1924 it was S26,082,-
886. The metals mines tax which will
add approximately 100000 to state
receipts is based on approximately /
IL per cent Of the annual net pro
ceeds.
Under the metal mines tax law
/, half the amount goes to the general
fund of the state, the remainder to
the public school fund.

are good allies OF the bourgeoisie
when it is a question of supporting
this campaign. The renegade Hoeg-
lund has already landed in the stink
ing swamp of social democracy and
has set himself one task: to do as
much damage to our party as possible.
For this purpose he employs the
ybasest and most mendacious means.
But Hoeglund has no influence upon
the masses and is only a gramaphone
Of the revolutionary phrases Of Paul
Levi and other stranded politicians.
The bourgeoisie, of course, makes
good use of this treacherous policy Of
the Hoeglunders and the social demo-
Gratis in order to proceed more sharp
ly against the dangerous Bolsheviks.
Many workers have been condemned
by the court for having fought against
the strikebreakers, among these is
the secretary of the Young Communist
League and two other comrades who
have received six months and one
month Imprisonment respectively.
All this shows quite clearly enough
that the bourgeoisie has made all pre-
parations in order to undertake a
wholesale offensive against the work
ers. The lockout by the employers
declarations has caused great excite

The Mass Lockout in Sweden

This Interpolation, in connection
with the new army discipline bill, is
the testing stone for the government.
In regard to the military question, the
social democrats have already ap-
preached very near to the proposal Of
the liberal party and thereby com
pletely ignored their own election
pledges. According to the proposal of
the social democrats, the military bud
get will amount to 100 million crowns
Against this proposal the Communists
are putting forward the slogan of the
Workers and Peasants Militia" But
the bourgeoisie is not satisfied with
the proposal Of the social democrats
and the liberals. 1t wishes to lay
more millions upon the altar of bour-
geois militarism. The object of this
agitation for ornaments is an alliance
with Finland and the Baltic countries
against the Soviet Union, and the arm
ing of the bourgeois state and its
fascist organizations against the work
ers and small peasants.
Moscow Worries Them.
At the same time there has set in
an unexampled campaign against the
"adherents of Moscow" The so-called
Communist Party of the renegade

ment among the masses. The govern
ment Immediately intervened-not to
support the workers, but instead ap-
pointed an arbitration committee con-
sisting entirely OF bourgeois people.
The chairman is the present ambas-
sador in Helsingfors, Elmkvist. The
first result of this arbitration COM
mittee was the postponement of the
lockout until the 10th of March. Now,
as previously, the government and the
trade union bureaucrats will do every
thing possible to arrive at compro-
mise and thereby preserve law and
order in the country"
Workers Demand General Strike.
The Communist Party Of Sweden
has issued the slogan of the general
strike, and this slogan has been re-
ceived with great enthusiasm at mass
meetings held in many places. The
social democrats are furious and are
attempting by demagogic means to
hold back the workers from the fight.
In spite of the continually increasing
cost of living, the slogan Of the social
democrats is the maintenance Of the
status quo. The syndicalists have is
sued the demonstration slogan: occu-

 Chinese BriSands

Washington, D. c, April b. Within a few days after the U. S public health service announced the release of lepers as toured" by a treatment which included the use of chaulmoogra oil, word came from Joseph F. Rock, who located the chaulmoogra tree in Burma, telling of his narrow escape from Chinese bandits.
 Mir. Rock was leader of the Ma tional Geographic society expedition 10 Yunnan Province, China, which found blight resisting chestnut trees for transplantation in the United States. After a few months in this country he returned to Yunnan to seek plant specimens for the Arnold Arboretum, at Cambridge, Mass.

BILL TO PERMIT SUIT

London, April 1o.-The historic British law which provides that the crown may not be sued will be dis cussed in parliament in the near fu- ture when a bill is introduced calling for it's alteration.
 A committee of iurists has pre- pared an outline of the bill which would knock out the ancient law al- together. The proposal as con- sidered by the jurists is that the crown should be as liable as any other employer for acts committed within the scope Of an employers authority.

 Reliable in This Case

 Badly in need of a water supply 'ee years ago the town employed inrich Otte, @ local expert with
 divining rod to locate well. He
 so, but a shaft 90 feet deep gave

was abandoned. The town managed to get along until this winter, when existing supplies became so scant that Heinrich again was called in. He walked about with his diyining rod, and as he passed over the old well, the story goes, the hazel switch was actually pulled out of his hands.
 Town workmen went to the bot tom of the old shaft, dug down six feet more, and found an abundant supply.

in the conference sermon.
Tragedies Discussed
Speaking on The Greatest Trag-
edy of Life" he compared the trag-
edy of Job with the tragedies of
literature.
THE plan of Jobs tragedy differs
from Shakespeare's tragedies in that
Shakespeare closes his tragedies
with the harvest of death, while in
Job the tragedy is in the prologue.
