The Yield Not So Large as Antici-
pated.
RICEBoRo, GA, Oct THE yield of the
rice crop in this section is not near so much
as was anticipated. The quality is better
than usual, but the yield per acre is great
deal less than last year. There is much
young rice planted and the farmers say that
it makes better grade, but does not yield
as much as the old rice. The recent rains
stopped just in the nick of time and the
farmers went at the rice with vim and
soon bad it stacked in their barn yards
where it can safely remain until next year
if necessary.
Merchants generally, are rot in the best
of spirits as the fall trade has been slow in
ope ing, and some claim they have lost a
months business. Farmers, it is safe 20 say,
will be in far better condition at the close of
the season than they were last year

TENNILLE. GA, Oct. Hon. ]. G. C.
Black spoke to a crowd of 300 or more in
the park here. He talked mostly Of the
state government, as that was nearer the
people than the federal government was.
Mr.. Black handled the Peek slavery bill so
nicely and the third party platform, that
the entire crowd left as staunch democrats,
with the exception OF about one dozen. Mr..
Black was not as full of promises as the
third party. He promised TO do all he could
for the cause of democracy and for the re-
lief OF the people. The ladies OF the town
decorated the stand to perfection and every
thing seemed to be in its glory and the day
was one well spent.

Portland Law students Club.

A preliminary meeting was held in the
office of Henry J. Conley yesterday af-
ternoon to revive the Portland Law Stu
dents Club, whose meetings have been
in the past so productive of profit and
interest to the Portland students, but
which nave been discontinued during
the past year. The newly elected mem
bers were: A. L. Hutchinson, r. T..
Whitehouse, w. G. Eaton, VIC. Weldon,
H. W. Ogden, N. Clifford, John B. Ke-

best method of conducting the meetings
during the winter, an adjournment was
voted to Monday next at 5 p. M, when a
meeting will be held at the attorneys
room, City Building. for the election of
officers and the appointment of commit

1t Seems a Hardship.

James E. McGlade, who has been
working at Morse's mill, Bangor, was ar
rested Thursday by the police in compli-
ance with a telegram from Superinten-
dent harrington of the Reform School.
McGlade was sentenced to the Reform
School in 1884 for his minority. He
served eight years and during April of
this year he was discharged upon his
good behavior and came to Portland to
work. Here he obtained a job at $3.50
per week and his board was 81 week
While in Portland he heard that the
prospects in Bangor looked brighter for
him and so he started for that city, leav-
ing board bill for So unpaid. He late
ly bought suit of clothes in Bangor and
was about to square up his Portland
debt when arrested. McGlade has be-
haved we'll since he went to Bangor and
the question arises whether he can be
brought back to the Reform School for
the rest of his minority when his Port
land account would be settled by his
friends in Bangor. He is now 10 years of
age and would have to stay in the Re-
form School two years more and it
seems decided hardship for him.

The Stockbridge Courses.
The new claimant for public recogni-
tion-and such recognition it has already
received in abundant measures the sys-
tenn of the ''Urania Scientific Theatre"
which, originating in Berlin, was perfect
ed in New York. By this system the
scenic artist the electrician and the stage
carpentera re all employed in the pro-
duction of novel effects under the critical
and guiding eye of science. In the en-
tertainment called GA Trip to the Noon
the audience seems to be transported to
the actual surface of our satellite, after
an inspiring flight through space that is
not less interesting in itself than one OF
Jules Verne's stories, although kept with
in the strict bounds of scientific truth
The strangeness of the lunar scenery
never fails to arouse the spectators and
call forth admiring plaudits. The won
derful story of the creation of the earth
and it's inhabitants is told in the other
entertainment, "From Chaos to Man.
and the audience sees the growth of the
planet through all those mysterious geo.
logical ages, as if endowed with power to
sit in outer space and to watch through
millions of years the turning of a nebu-
lous star into living world. IA Trip
to the Moon will open the Stockbridge
course next week.

The Assignment of wyer Green & Co,

The Assignment of Wyer Green & Co.
The, announcement of the assignment
of the old and well known retail shoe
firm of Wyer Green & Co. has created
surprise and sympathy for the members.
Mr.. Green has been in the shoe business
for 20 years, for nine years in his present
store. To the PRESS yesterday Mr..
Green said he hoped and rather expect
ed that the assets would enable him to
meet the liabilities dollar for dollar, but
he could not tell for certain as no figures
could be obtained at present. A gradual
accumulation of old stock which could
not be disposed of to advantage and
smallness of capital seem to be the reas-
sons for the assignment. Hanno w.
Gage, Esq.,, is the assignee.

Withdrawn From Maine.

The Michigan Insurance Company
which began business in Maine three
years ago has withdrawn from the state.
The company is a good one, but the last
year or two insurance business has been
hard everywhere owing to the tendency
to curtail the amount of insurance on the
part of insurers, and being a new COM
pany in the field it's state business was
not large enough to pay the expenses of
continuing the business in the state.

The Face in the Moonlight.
The New York Evening Post says:
A melodrama, entitled 1.-THE Face in
the Moonlight written by Charles Os-
borne and played by Robert Mantell and
his company, served to open the season
at Proctor's theatre last night. The
house was crowded and with critical
audience, differing largely from the usual
summer attendance. The play is fairly
well constructed. The chief feature of
his performance was the remarkably
quick change from one character to the
other, which he had to make many times
during the night.
Mr.. Mantell will be seen at Portland
theatre next week

AN IMPORTANT OPINION.

Solicitor General Bartlett has just
given the following opinion:
TERRITORY OF New MEXICO,
Office of Solicitor General,
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. 10, '92.
Hon. Amado Chaves, Supt. Public
instruction, Santa N. NJ.
Dear Sir: Your favor of the 18th
inst, stating that in certain school
districts in the territory, the voters
who desired to cast their ballots at
the city election held in April last,
had paid their poll tax, and that the
receipt given to them by the clerk of
the district, was dated in the year
1892, but the receipt reads: Gre
ceived from--$l poll tax for the
year 1884," and that those so paying
now claim that having paid their tax,
in 1892, that they were not required
TO pay the poll tax again to qualify
them as electors at the general cleo
ton to be held in November; and
also stating that the district attorney
had declined to give an opinion on
the subject to the clerk of the school
board where the question arose, and
asking my official opinion upon the
question involved, has had my atten-
tion, and in reply would say that the
school law of 1891, chapter 20, Sec
tion SO, levied poll tax of 81 upon
all able-bodied male persons over the
ago of 81 years Tor school purposes.
II is made the duty of the county as
SCISSOR to certify list of those liable
to this tax to the clerks of the sever
al school districts, whose duty it is
10 collect the same, and they are au-
Ihorized to bring suit for such collec-
lion If the same is not paid
in 60 days after the lists are re-
,eived. There is an additional pro
vision that it shall be illegal for any
person to vote at any election who
las not paid his poll tax for the cur
'ent year, and said payment must be
made in case Of a general election

POLITICS m THE SOUTH.

Leading Southern Democrats in
Washington are beseeching the na-
tional committee to save them. Ii
is an unpleasant truth, yet the South.
ern Bourbons admit that, with the
Alliance rampant and other dlsquiet
ing influences at work, they will
have TO fight for the electoral vote of
the Virginias, the Carolinas and Ala
bama.
There is a wide split in the inner
councils of the southerners over the
plan Of campaign TO be followed.
The Cleveland men in private ridis
cule the force bill issue and say the
only hope for them Is a straightfor-
ward tariff reform or free trade fight.
On the other hand the proteCtionist
element insists that the new south,
with its growing industrial enters
prises, will not have free trade, and
and that the only way to hold it is
to keep up DR.. Dana's force bill and
negro domination prescription. This
is the view of Senators Ransom and
German, who propose to make their
influence as members of the cams
paign committee felt in keeping up
the force bill.
Cleveland is understood to fear
this course, because it will lose him
thousands of votes in the doubtful
states in the north.
There has by no means been an
establishment of cordial relations
between Senators German, Brice,
Ransom and others of their school
and Mr.. Cleveland. Had it not
been for the efforts of Mr.. Whitney,
German, Brice and Ransom would
not have served on any of the COM
and the campaign might
have been run without their assists
ance. Their first meeting with Mr..
Cleveland IN New York after the nos
tiiication meeting was far from cor
dial, and it was supposed after the
that neither of the three
senator's would have anything to do
with the campaign. Cleveland was
riding a high horse. Afterward |
Whitney succeeded in getting him
down little and the three senators
were implored to go on the commit
tee and take prominent part in the |
of the campaign.
Whitney had planned not to go on
the committee himself, but he could |
not get German and Brice to serve
HIM. AS 1t is now both |
German and Brice are on the defens-
i've and feel that they are wanted |
only for convenience and will be
thrown overheard as soon as Mr..
Cleveland gets through with them.

Irrigated land at Eddy is adver,
tised for sale at 500 per acre, while
here SO would be considered a high
price. The difference is that at
Eddy they advertise their land and
there is a demand for it while here
it is not advertised and the people
pass right through for other places
and don't know there is land for
sale.

60 days previous to such election, as
amended by section 4, chapter n,
laws of 1891. This law contem
plates the payment of only one poll
tax of 81 in one year. The current
year, is the year running, i. e. in ex
istence at the time the election is
held; the civil or legal year, begin.
ming on the first of January
and ending on the 3lst of
December, and the tax having been
paid once in that year, complies with
the law for all purposes. The re-
ceipt itself, showing that it was paid
in 1892 would be evidence to show
for what year the voter intended it
to apply, and the clerk can not by
stating in the receipt that it was re-
ceived for the tax of 1891, deprive
the citizen of his right to cast a
ballot in 1892; if he did not pay his
poll tax in 1891, he is liable to a suit
under the statute quoted to recover
the same and of course he would
have no right to vote during the year
in which he did not pay his poll tax.
For various reasons the voter may
not have wished to pay this tax in
the year 1891, and be willing to lose
the rights which this payment con-
ferred and incur the liability of a
law suit for its collection; while for
other reasons he would wish to pay
it in 1892 and be entitled to all the
rights and benefits which its payment
and this is strictly a per-
sonal right and privilege of the
elector which cannot be abridged or
altered by the officer who takes the
money crediting the same to some
other year than that in which the
elector pays it; the rule is stronger
in this case than that which applies
to the payment of ordinary taxes,
the ordinary tax payer may be will
ing to pay the assessments levied |
against him for the year 1892, and |
Is entitled as of right to a receipt |
from the collector for the amount |
which he pays in that year, although |
he may be delinquent for several
years prior Would 1t be contended |
that the collector could take this
money for this class of taxes and APP
ply it upon previous years Delinquent
cies? Certainly not. The statute
provides how delinquent taxes shall
be collected as it does under the
school law for the collection of de-
inquent poll tax. My opinion there
lore Is, upon the question presented
hat an elector having paid his poll
ak once, to the proper officer in the
legal year, and being other
wise qualified is entitled to vote at
my election held in that year, pro-
'ided, only, that it is paid within
he time prescribed by law. Very
especially,

Solicitor General of New Mexico.
