which will be source of considerable
revenue. A long corridor in the cen
ter of the building will lead to the
main floor of the opera house. The
opera house will be modern through
out and will have main floor and
balcony with a seating capacity OF
about 1900. To the rear of the bal
cony and facing Broadway several Of
fees rooms will be located. These
offices will no doubt bring good rent
al and will be another source of rev.
enue to the new company. 1t is plan
ned to have large dance hall in the
basement and one that will be cOnsld-
erably larger than the old floor of the
Germania opera house. This dance
hall will have good patronage. A
kitchen will be fitted up in the base
ment so that the dance hall can be
used for banquets and gatherings OF
a like nature. In another part OF the
basement a large club room will be
furnished for the members of the
Deutsche Opernhaus Gesellschaft Won
Denison, where all the meetings of
this company will be held.
We are pleased to see so much en-
thusiasm shown in this much needed
The success of this
enterprise is due to the unceasing
efforts of few of our prominent Ger
man citizens, who have long realized
the need of an opera house in Deni-
son. Their friends have not been
slow to rally to their support.

port by tolerance rather than to in.
timidate by bloodshed and murder.
1t will be long time before the
stain of the new administration will
be obliterated and the sooner the
assassins now in control are hurled
from power the better it will be for
the honor of Mexico. We doubt if
there is possible a solution of the
troubles of that unfortunate country
with the class of people now in con-
troll. The assassination of Madero was
entirely unnecessary and the subter-
fuge in the way of an explanation will
not satisfy anyone that it was not the
intention of those in power to take
his life. The excuse offered is that it
became necessary as matter of safe
! ty to remove him from the palace to
the penitentiary, where better protec-
tion could be afforded him. If his life
was in danger in the palace and this
was the excuse for removing him, why
was not an adequate body guard sent
| to protect him from the the mob on
the way to the penitentiary? Why
first send out the report that he was
killed in front Of the penitentary
when the later facts disclose that his
death occurred in the rear of the pen
itentiary? How does it. come, if he
was killed as result of a street
brawl, that Madero and his vice-presi-
dent were the only ones in either
party that were killed?
The truth is, as we believe, that TAX
ing him to the penitentiary was simply
to afford an opportunity for taking his
life. The hour of the night and the
want of protection afforded him In
making the trip leads to no other con-
clusion.
1t is unfortunate that large portion
of the inhabitants of Mexico are in
capable of self government and must
be ruled by an iron hand, but the
ruler should be man just as we'll as
fearless and not ruffian like young
Diaz, or a traitor like Huerta. 1t is
time for the better and more intelli-
gent class of people in Mexico to as
sert their influence in favor of man
of honor and justice to rule the coun-
try. 1t does not matter that Huerta is
said to be friendly to the United
States. We do not need the friend
ship of man whose record is one of
betrayal and bloodshed.

In Mayor Batson's court this morn
ing Aller Birge was tried on a charge
of vagrancy and sentenced to 80 days
in jail.
Aller is the wife of Marion Birge,

against her, to one of which she plead
guilty and afterwards, through her at
torneys, Currie & Currie, appealed to
the supreme court. Her arrest on the
last charge was after a raid by the
police who found several bottles Of
liquor in her house. In the absence Of
proof that this liquor was being kept
for sale, a charge for violating the
liquor law was abandoned on advice
of the city attorney, and one of vag-
rancy was substituted.
Maddis Deloach, a negro drayman,
was charged with leaving his team un-
hitched He plead guilty and was fined
81 and costs, which he promptly paid

Western Union Charged With
Escaping Taxation p Years

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 20.-If the con-
tention of Attorney General Ross A.
Collins as a result of information re-
ceived by him is correct the Western
Union Telegraph Company has escaped
paying taxes for a period of twenty
two years on telegraph poles between
Meridian and New Orleans, within the
state of Mississippi, and on the line
OF the New Orleans & Northeastern
Railroad Company.
Late yesterday afternoon the attor-
ney general, in letter to the members
Of the railroad commission, called the
attention Of that body to this fact. He
said he had understood the Western
Union has not paid or been assessed
taxes for the years 1912 back to and In

cluding the year 1890, and under the
laws of Mississippi taxes are due and
should be assessed so that proper suits
may be brought to recover same"
The Western Union officials have
been cited by the commission to ap-
pear before it at its next meeting,
March 4, to show cause why these tax
es should not be assessed, and a prop
er valuation of the property made.
State, county and municipal taxes
are unpaid, it is said, on these poles.
Poles in Mississippi are taxed on a
valuation of 800 a mile. Roughly
speaking about $1,000 would be due
the state counties and towns If the
contention Of the attorney general is
correct.
