fixing it. on t0e 100i of February, ult., it is 0
impossible to fix the day at this time. The v

such a law a part of our .Stat utes the measure
is killed, at~d (lie columon fiee schools are to ti

decrease in our school fuind. Besides the e,
matn who paiys taxes on anty real or personal w
property will be forced to pay hisa poll tax, a
because it is 6r4rated wit h his other taxes, 8(1
and the Tr'e'surers, under the law, can not ai
give him a receipt for any portion of his taxes, .ail
but lhe must ly all-inceludhing h is poll-be- in

the law, and there is n-> way to force him to p
pay his itex, yet lhe derives as mutch benefit a
from it in the educationl of hiis chi ldren as to
ant' one else. This is a palpable in'jtutico if
and the poll tax should be abolished, or all, e
except paupers, or soch persons as are maim of
