But an insignificant fraction OF the 2l,-
RIO poll taxes assessed have been paid up
to the present time and City Treasurer
Granger does not look for any very
marked increase in the number of pay
ments this year over last year, when the
aggregate sum received was a little more
than sS000 considerably less than
one-hall the total assessed. In speak
ing OF this matter the city treas
urer, while stating his belief in the con-
stitutionality OF the poll tax law which
quents until they pay the tax and all
costs incurred in it's collection, says the
provision Is far from being good or
equitable one. lie illustrates his mean
ing by making a comparison between the
personal property Taxpayer and the poll
tax payer. "Suppose, said he, "a tax
amounting TO s125 on personal property
is assessed against John Smith. We try
to collect il but can get nothing. The
property has been put beyond ou- reach
and there IL no way ~ getting that sI25,
for we cannot arrest the delinquent.
When IL comes to the poll taxpayer,
be a poor weaver in a mill who cannot
afford to pay the tax, but his body can
be taken for that dollar and cast into
prison until he settles. Here there is
an unjust discrimination against the lat
ter class OF taxpayers, while the pnr-
sonal property owner, although he mny
lie able to pay, can escape payment as
well es arrest. IL seems TO me tnat N we
are TO retain the poll tax, the payment ot
IL ought to be made n prerequisite TO
voting. II that were done tho number
OF delinquents would be very greatly re-
duced.

HINOOO PROVERBS.
Bits Of East Indian Philosophy Expressed
In Pungent Epie-ams.


A cluster of sarcastic Indian proverbs
is given in the columns CT the Madras
Mail However patient the common peo-
pie of India may be, they give in their
proverbs expression to their feelings ard
indulge freely in satire at the expense Of
those who trouble them. That the pow
erful should Cypress the weak is 10 new
thing in the history Of any land, and in
India it is expressed by the proverb,
'Big fish eat little ones" A Jack in
Office" suddenly raised to power, which
he uses unwisely, is spoken of as "a wa
ter carrier reigns for two days aid a
half The boaster who has failed in
his plans is directed to rub the arms of
your brethren" a proverb the meaning
of which does not appear on the surface.
1t refers to the custom of rubbing the
arms of successful wrestlers rs mode
of congratulation on the victory gained.
The proud boaster is thus ironically told
to congratulate others, not himself. The
official who takes brides is said to wear
silver spectacles. Themiserly and mean
are held in great contempt, and the prov
cribs regarding them are numerous.
Come to your funeral pyre; wood is
cheap" is satire ON the man who fears
to spend all that is needed Oh the neces-
saries of life.
A woman who is ready to quarrel, as
the village woman of the lower orders
too frequently is, finds herself rebuked
in, ''She quarrels with the passing
breeze. The woman retorts by speak
ing OF quarrelsorle husband as "better
out than at home" and Of the tenpecA-
ed husband she says he is "a woman s
kingdom. Affected politeness is de-
scribed by, During ceremonial otser-
vances the train went off," Two per-
sons were going by train. One said to
the other, ''Sir. pray enter" "After
you, sir. ''No, you be pleased to go
first. And away went the train and
left the overpolite friend behind. When
politeness passes into obsequiousness. it
is said, THE mouth is not sweetened by
saying 'sweetme.ts d" Housekeepers
in England are familiar with the cat as
4 scapegoat. The monkey in India takes
the place of the cat, and to the man who
tries to conceal his fault it is said, "Ac-
cidents in the stable are laid on the
monkeys head" ''The Indian crow is
proverbial for its cunning, which gives
rise to the proverb. This scheme will
scare crows" and refers to the clever
plans of a cunning man, able to outwit
a crow. "a tongue under a tongue" fit
ly expresses the double tongued or false
man.
