"TaxefIS."

The corporation paper has another
attack of 'taxetis." From its far
fetched senseless attacks on the pres
ent administration, it is evident
hard-pressed for anything upon
which it can build up public sentiment
to get control of the city for its par
ticular crowd, and everybody knows
what this control would mean. The
first year OF John LamOnt's term as
mayor, the obligations of former adj
mlnlstrationS had to be met; there
was no money on hand; the treasury
was empty and it was only by practic-
ing the greatest economy that taxes
were no higher This year the taxes
are great deal lower than last year
and much lower than two years ago.
The Record Herald and its followers
see victory again for the democrats,
if something isn't done to c-ing dis
credit upon Mayor Lanont's term.
The corporation crowd. through its
organ, admits that provisions have
been made for Improvements that are
absolutely necessary, but the whole
blamed crowd commences to howl
about beautiful parks, immaculate
streets, putting in a new water sys-
tenn, ETC., ETC., and deplores the fact
that our citizens are not taxed high
er rate, SO that we can have city,
that will be more in accord with their
aesthetic tastes. The PILOT has often
said, and still maintains it, that our
assessments should he m de IL the
most careful manner and the taxes
kept down to at least three per cent.
and men placed at the head of our
city affairs, who will see that every
dollar goes into various Improvements
as voted. When our city finances
will permit of it, then we can and
should purchase parks and spend
money galore to make Wausau beauti-
full. The present administration has
made material reduction in taxes
the past year, and another equally as
good will lower them again next year.
But it is hoped the voters will not be
too hasty il listening to the siren
song OF the corporation organ.

new BILL SCORES
AT OPERA HOUSE
Big Audiences CIeverly En-
tertaiRed by Vaudeville
Performers Last Night
2 Doors Below 1ih S

The programme for the latter half
Of the week was presented at the New
Grand Opera House last night TO an
especially appreciative audience, and
if Il is TO be taken as criterion OF the
bills the management win offer for the
rest OF the season, their patrons are TO
have some good vaudeville.
Perhaps the audience was a more
than usually enthusiasts one, hui
whether this be so or not. every ac
/ brought forth laugh after laugh. Th'
good business done on the opening
night seems 70 have continued for thl
I house was crowded at both shows.
Tho motion pictures are receiving
great deal OF favorable comment
which they really deserve for they
are exceptionally good. The Grand
Opera House orchestra seems 70 have
found their stride and settled down
10 their work so that the overture and
accompaniments are features Of the
entertainment.
To a great many people n bicycle
act has lost its interest, but Gray
and White managed 10 put over somo-
thing that for clever riding and comedy
work was a mirth provoker. The
Trans. Atlantic Four. a singing quartet
of exceptional ability, had things
pretty much their own way and were
called out again and again.
Although many in the audience had
seen Shean and Warren earlier In the
week. this fact did not seem 10 detract
ono whit from the reception they re-
ceived last night. With a burlesque
on the old time heavy tragedian and
a really fine German comedian they
got n smile every second. The scene
in which the erstwhile station porter
plays the part Of Roman bull-hghter
brought down the house.
Eddie Gardner. who styles himself
a Comedian and Entertainer" which
is quite a long description for little
fellow. was able 10 prove Il. and came
in for his share of the applause that
was lavished on the whole programme
With his singing dancing, juggling
etc" he had them going the whole
fifteen minutes he held the centre.
with a laughable parody on Italiai
grand opera, Lloyd and Whitehous'
made hit. They talked pretty lit
tie song called Il Was Sorry. Too"
The bill was a good one all through
and. will continue. matinee and even
ing until tomorrow night. Matineel
are given at 2.30 o'clock, and evening
performances at 7.s0 and Q o'clock.
