Lord he was an American citizen.
Then the trouble commenced. i do
not know who struck the first blow or
how many were fighting.
There were some fifteen or twenty
men In the o!ilce, and 1t seemed to me
that with the exception of a few
among them being Edwards, the rest
were lighting. Wilson and M3Vey
came In the Office soon after the fight
started and aided in restoring order.

Giles to send them there because

threatening remarks on Friday night

requested Mr.. Giles TO send Money
and Wltsll around, and IL they and
Captain Kersey and other officers had
not been there | believe there woul Id
have been more serious disturbance
than there was. Captain Evans and
three police officers came up right
after tho disturbance and behaved like
gentlemen, The negroes seem to be
at the bottom of all these troubles
and they are urged on by unscrupu-
lous white politicians. If these dis
turbances continue i shall close up
the office"
Captain John Kersey said: "Word
was received at the police station

that there was riot at the tax olllce.

'McCauley told Money he raised nil

All OF the officers stayed at tho olllce

stayed until 5 o'clock"
Frederick L. Bach said he did not see
why DicSey should have apprehendel

The hepublicans to have trouble in tho

The oft asked question, whore and
how do Democrats get their tax re-
ceiptst" can now be answered. How
they get them is explained by circu
lar. mailed around to each individual
poll tax Democrat urging him to call
upon the Democratic Committee and
get their receipts at the Young Mems
Democratic Club room.
This differs from tho circular the
Republicans sent out to their votere.
The Inter urged Republicans to call
upon the receiver of taxes and get
their receipts. Mr.. John A. Mitchell, a
clerk In the tax office, Is ON the com.
mittee to whom Democrats are advis.
ed to apply How very convenient
this arrangement is. and how very
thankful the Democrats ought 70 be
that they can qualify to vote so easily
One Democrat called on Mr. Mitch,
ell at the tax Office for his receipt. and
was told by that gentleman to call al
the rooms Of the Young Mems Repub
liean Club.
