Yiddisb Drama.

Putting aside all questions as to ITS
intrinsic value, the Yiddish drama IS
one of the remarkable developments
of Jewish life in its ghetto environ
ment. The first performance of Gold
faden's "Shuamith" occurred in Rou-
mania only twenty-five years ago. To-
day Goldfadens Operettas, simple IN
structure and rudely initiative in form,
have turned out to be the crude begin
ming of dramatic repertory which in
cludes nowadays the classic dramas OF
German. English and Russian litera-
ture and one dramatic writer of su-
perior talent, Jacob GOrdin. 1t will
soon be able to claim as its own the
talent of two Of the foremost Yiddish
authors Of the day. Peretz and Sholom
Alckem. To cover the dramatic period
which consumed four centuries in the
life Of the English drama in such a
surprisingly brief space Of time indi-
Gates anew the phenomenal assimila-
tive and recuperative power of the
Jewish people. The rapid stride the
Yiddish drama has made as an art
fully expressive Of the life Of the peO-
pie is one of the most striking phe-
nomena in modern literature.-Ameri-
can Hebrew.

michigan ia the Limelight.

A proposal is pending in the Mich
igan Constitutional Convention to
have the new constitution punish by
fine and imprisonment men who
neglect to vote, and reward those
who cast their ballots by deducting
S3 90 from their taxes. Both pen
alties and inducements are held out
to make men vote whether they want
to or not while the right is denied to
the women who do want it. That
there are women in Michigan who
want the ballot cannot be gainsaid,
for some thousands have petitioned
the Constitutional Convention to
provide for woman suffrage. The
movement has been endorsed by the
Modern Maccabees, the Ladies OF
the Maccabees, the w. c. 7. u, and
bv some of the most conservative
and influential womeu's S clubs OF the
State. -.
Nor are the women without allies
among men, for Senator Thomas W.
Palmer has addressed a letter to the
Constitutional Convention, urging
that a woman suffrage amendment
be embodied in the new Constitution.
The State Grange, the State Fedora
/ tion of Labor and many mems OF
carnations of minor Importance
have taken favorable action on the
question.
The Constitutional Convention
will grant the women a hearing al
an early date, at which Rev. Anna d.
| Shaw, whom Michigan claims as hel
own, will be the principal speaker.

The sad occurrence OF Sunday
night cast a gloom over the town

Nevertheless great crowds came
to hear Gov. Beckham, McChesney

afford to be disappointed. Paints

took dinner with J. c. G. Mayo,

street After dinner Gov. Beckham
and party came to the Court House
square where q large audience was
already waiting There was the
Ergest crowd We have ever seen in
Psintsville in many a long day.
Beckham was introduced by Fred
liowes in an eloquent short talk
which brought forth much cheering,
u. Beckham made a splendid speech
which was well received. At the
conclusion of Beckham's speech the
band played Dixie" after which
G. w. Peck of the graded school in
troduced McChesney as one of his
cid friends. Prof Peck's speech IN
Introducing McChesrey was eloquent
aid to the point. McChesney caught
the crowd with his wit and elo-
quence, and held them spell-bound
during his entire address.
Judge Davis our next Congressman

Tarif.
We welcome the bclatcd promise of
tariff reform now affected by the Re-
publican party in tardy recognition
of the righteousness Of the Demo-
cratic position on this question; but
the people can not sare1y cntrust the
execution Of this important work to
a party which is 50 deeply obligated
to the highly protected interests as is
the Republican party. We call at
tcntinn to the significant fact that
promised relief was postponed until
after the coming clcction-an clcc-
tion to succeed in which the Rcpub-
lic&n party must have that same sup
port from the bcncficiaricS Of the
high protective tariff as it has always
heretofore received from thcm-and
to the further fact tnat during years
of uninterrupted power no action
whatever has been taken by the Re-
publican congress to correct the adj
mitlcdlv existing tariff iniquitics.
We Favor immediate revision Of the
tariff by the reduction of import du-
ties. Articles entering into compete
ton with trust controlled products
should he placed upon the free list;
and material rcductsons should be
made in the tariff upon the ncccs-
Sarics of life. especially upon articles
competing with such American manu-
features as are sold abroad more
rhcaply than at home; and graduate
reductions should be made in such
other schedules as may be necessary

and in this manner he held them at bay
for an hour.
During this time neither class had been
able to get another man up the pole and
while the struggle was at its height Pres
ident kingsbury and Professors Lyman
and Cummings interviewed and quoted
the battling classmen. The fight in the
air went on with Walton still beating his
men back. Finally one of the freshmen
wound the guy rope around him, depriv-
ing him of the use of his legs, while the
other two assembled together and grabbed
his arms. Even with this handicap the
daring young sophomore fought, but at
last he was oVerpOwered and Banning, the
first freshman up the pole, climbed past
Walton and secured the II flag, winning
the day for the freshmen.
Nearly the entire student body was as
sembled on the lawn to see the rush, the
juniors cheering the freshmen and the
seniors supporting the sOphOmOres. At
times it grew so spirited that it looked as
though il would end In a general fight.
After the rush President Kingsbury said:
IF the boys must have their rushes they
should have them some other place rather
than on the campus, where they destroy
school property, and should have them
after school when il will not interfere
with their studies. The faculty will not
allow anything so dangerous as the rush
today where the men were fighting on the
pole. endangering their own lives as well
as those below them.
