A BLOW TO THE SCHOOLS.
Effect of the Defeat OF the Poll Tax Bill
Exemption Legislation.

Correspondence OF The Appeal.
BOLIVAR, Tenn, March 2l.-The defeat
OF the poll tax bill is a serious blow to the
free schools OF the State. 1t means loss
to the school fund OF $500, 900 per annum.
II means also release TO that very class
who get the most benefit Of free schools OF
all their just share OF contribution to the
school fund. In other words, the very
men who get most benefit OF the school
fund escape all taxes that go to make up
the school fund. The negroes, who are
proverbially delinquent in paying poll
taxes get equal benefit with the whites,
who pay about nine-tenths Of all taxes
OF the STATE. 1t is not surprising the
Republicans opposed the measure, be-
cause 1t would cause the majority Of
their constituents TO perform citizens
first duty. viz: pay his school tax. But
that an intelligent Democrat who favors
public schools should oppose it, is incredi.
bic. The property qualification is specious
and fallacious. The Constitution guaran-
tees TO every citizen the right TO sue in
| the courts. When he brings his suit,
however, he Is required TO give bond for
costs, or take the oath required for poor
persons Now, would his right TO vote be
any the less abridged by requiring HIM 10
pay his poll tax, or take an oath that he
Is unable to pay iP But. besides all this,
the provisions OF the Constitution are
mandatory, and ordain that the Legisla.
ture shall enact a law compelling all voters
liable therefor to pay their poll taxes. IL
might seem harsh TO say that demagogism
is at the bottom OF il, but that is about tn,
size OF IT,
Let us now sec ID those gentlemen who
defeated the bill will vote for tax rate on
property sufficient TO run the free schools
even for five months per annum, when
supplemented by the county taxes. W.
shall see.
For twenty years nearly all Legislation
has been in the interest OF the debtor cias
and us a consequence IL is ordinarily use
less 10 sue, for in nine cases out OF ten TIA,
debtor has nothing subject TO execution
and the creditor Is beat out Of his money
And great many people use the exemp
ton laws as a cloak for their rascality. In
deed, IL Is questionable whether the OK
empiion laws are not a disadvantage; 10
they induce many 10 become rascals VIII

gin. In Christ's time the only article 81
empt was a mans cloak, and hence tai
