If there is any artistic significance i'm
the achievements of the Bat Theater,
which came out Of Moscow to exhibit
Its varied and delicate achievements
to the world. 1t may be that this novel
institution represents the reaction of
Russian stage art against the sophisti-
cation of the Ballet Russo and one or
two similar manifestations.
So the new actors carry with them
wooden soldiers marching with the
solidity of the genuine article. gaudily

EDITORIAL

The Poll List is being published
on the other side of the Herald for
this the second week This may be
the last time such ever appears as
there is bill which has passed one
house the lower onerof the present
Legislature-p providing for repeal the
law requiring Delinquent Poll Tax
payers names published. Such bill
was first introduced to spare the
publishing the Women delinqueuts
aud was later amended to include
the males. Some of the lawmakers
think it Will never pass fully. There
is good reason for Its reteh ton provi-
ded enough funds are allowed TO get
it published, as the work more than
doubled account the women coming
into franchise. Among the reasons
il should Still be published is that is
handy manual for everyone in
terested in the public welfare to
have a check on the elections and
thus help keep down election frauds,
while If not published t will beget a
concentration of9power in the court
houses and encourage back dating
for selfish interests of some polit-
clans to say nothing of the power
exercised by the inside information
which ii will yield and that can be
welded to the detriment of the I'M
informed public on the outside.
This refers to the future and not to
present administration IN our coun-
ty which if we understand it is
heartily in favor of such publishing.
