A REFORM MEAsURE.-Let the

duction of a poll tax receipt as
the proper certificate of suffrage.
If this is done it will do away
with the Office of Registrar and
thus save thousands of dollars
to the State Marksville Bull

This plan will also insure a
clean and equitable collection of
the poll tax, and a consequent
increase Of the free school and
Charity Hospital funds, to which
the revenues detived from poll
taxes are contributed. Under
the present system, only a small
portion Of the citizens of the

property-are compelled to pay
an impost which is inteded to
bear upon all male inha bitants
alike, irrespective of property or
other distinctions. We heartily
endorse the suggestion of the
