THE FISH LAW INADEQUATE

Emmett c. Higgins, Deputy Game
and Fish Warden, in a letter to the
st. Louis Republic, has this to say in
regard to the violations Of the fish
law:
81 note you devote considerable
space to killing of fish with high
power rifles and dynamite. Now,
do not know what the other wardens
are doing; | speak for myself.

fercnt counties of this state. | have

who will prosecute them They all
say it is not violating Of law to shoot
fish. The specific way must be set
out or the instrument or method of
killing must be plainly stated in or
der to make it a crime If it is vi
olaton to kill fish with gun, the
state must so specify, and they cite
references to bear them out. ! call

the prosecuting attorney went step

DON'T VOTE IT BLIND

Having always lived in the country
we know the attitude Of country vot-
crs toward constitutional amendments.
No matter how well educated or how
intelligent the average rural citizen
may be. if there is bad amendment
offered that he is eager to kill he
will swat" the whole bunch. There
may be other amendments offered
that he is almost equally eager to see
carry, but for fear Of making a mis-
take he votes against every one and
goes out from the booth with a yir-
tuous feeling Of having done his duty.
This practice cannot be too strongly
condemned. 1t doesn't show intelli-
gcnce and it isn't good citizenship.
No man will vote against every man
on the ticket because one rascal hap
pens to he in line Neither should he
vote against something else of real
merit because il is necessarily in bad
company. The man who is the right
kind Of either will read e"ery IA
mcndment carefully and vote upon
them intellgently. And the rural
voter should lead the procession.
There are number of amendments
to be voted upon in Missouri next No
vembcr. While none is so decidedly
Objectionable to the farmer vote as
single tax few are bad enough and

into detail in discussing the amend
mcnts before election but there's time
enough yet. One amendment the
Missouri Ruralist is decidedly in favor
of is the county unit on local option.

One Of Most Satisfying Stage Per
forinances in Towns History.

Through the generosity of George l..
and Lyndon l.. Durham in providing
entertainment for their employees. Brat
tieboro theatergoers have had the OPP
portnnity to attend one of the finest
dramatic productions that has ever
graced local stage. To say that the
performance of Goldsmith s famous
She Stoops to Conquer by Miss Annie
russell and her comedy company last
evening was the best theatrical produc-
tion ever seen in town would be open
ing the way for discussion IN which
personal preference would be con.
siderable factor, but comparison is not
necessary in writing of presentation
which was i'll every detail so delightful
as that of last night
That the finished artistry of Miss
Russell and her supporting company
was kccnly appreciated was evidenced
by the enthusiastic reception given
them by the audience which filled prac
tieally every seat in the Auditorium.
In fact, any attempt at criticism of
the performance would be presumptu-
Gus. Miss Russell herself is not only
one of the most accomplished actresses
on the American stage. but Il woman of
high dramatic ideals, as was shown by
the all-round excellence of her com
pany, and it is sufficient TO say that
Rrattleboro people will always associate
her with one of the most satisfying
