Hear the bells that sweetly ring
When you feel like singin sing!

THE cApIrATIoN SCHOOL TAX.

The capitation school tax provided for in
Sec. SO, Chap. 25, of the acts of the general
assembly, of New Mexico, for 1891, is now
due anu payable. The section referred to
is as follows:
"SECTIoN 36.-That a poll tax Of 81 shall
be levied Upon all able bodied male per-
IONS over the age of twenty.one years, for
school purposes. 1t shall be the duty Of
the county assessor to make out separate
lists of all persons liable to pay a poll tax
in each district, and certify the same tc
the clerks of the several school districts
whose duty 1t shall be to collect the same
and said clerks shall receive ten pei
centum of all moneys collected from pol
ia xes. The district clerks are hereby EN-.
powered to bring suit in the name of the
district for the collection Of the same, IL
not paid within sixty days after the lists
have been received by the treasurer"
This Is a tax levied under the laws OF the
Territory, in each Of tho school districts OF
the Territory, to supplement and assist the
school funds raised in other ways, but is
entirely separate from them and is collect
Ou W u iCto tbVLIocltooy huu
going directly into the treasury of each
district without distribution.
Thu school district capitation tax of one
dollar, is one of the most important and
beneficial taxes we have to pay, and it is
therefore hoped, and it will be greatly ap.
preciated, If all those subject to this tax
will hand the same to me, or to w. g.
Koogler, who is authorized to collect the
same, promptly. By such action you will
greatly facilitate its collection, and favor
those charged with this work.
Our schools need al. the money they are
entitled to under the laws of the Territory,
and it is therefore needless to urge that
this obligation be met promptly, and thu
save the delay and expense of resorting to
other measures. Las Vegas has good
schools and is justly proud of them, but
they can only be kept at their present high
standard by all our citizens. taking an in
