IT seems they have poll tax law
in New York State similar to that
enacted by the last Nevada Legisla-
lure The New York World of re-
cent date says: Justice Chester Of
the Supreme Court has decided that
the law providing for the payment of
= poll tax as qualification for the
exercise of the right 20 vote is un-
constitutional David B. Hill was
the attorney for these who contested
the Law Senator Hill urged that it
was contrary to the Constitution to
prevent, in any way, a qualified voter
from exercising the right of fran
.chise Justice Chester decided that
the payment of poll tax imposed
an additional provision to those OF
the Constitution upon the voters
right of franchise and that any such
condition was unconstitutional. This
ruling may be taken as precedent
upon which our own Supreme Court
viii act in due lime.

MEXICO has a bull fighter named
FL Curita, who not long ago suffered
in reputation from the report that
he had been beaten by woman
lfhis he denied and notified all the
local newspapers that he had knocked
the%oman down four times with q
chair. To be sure he had been sent
to JAIL but instead of serving out his
eight day sentence he had been let
of on the payment of fine. This he
construed as o yindication of his
character, and invited the press to
endorse it. He is thus restored to

fighting class, and nc doubt ranks as
