Pay Your Poll Tax.

Now that the amendment to the
Constitution, known as the poll tax
amendment, has been defeated and
the tax will be required as con-
d,tion precedent to voting, citizens
should qualify without delay, that
they may be IN a position hereafter
to express a preference between
candidates at all elections. One is
In a sorry plight, indeed, who finds
himself disfranchised on election
day, with no more to say about the
selection OF public officials than an
nnnaluralized foreigner. Did non
payment of the poll tax relieve one
from the performance of road,
jury or military duty there might,
from a selfish and unpatriotlc
standpoint, be some reason for
self disfranchisement, but as the
citizen may at any time be called
upon to perform any or all of such
public duties, it IS supremeIy silly
to occupy the position OF an alien
in ones native land.
In view Of the fact, olso, that a
limited exercise Of the elective
franchise leaves law-making and
the execution thereof in the hand S
of qualified voters, it IS most un-
wise to occupy position where
ones views on public questions
have not the least weight.
To vote Is duty every man en-
titled to the privilege owes to HIM
self and to society, and for that
reason we urge upon our friends
the importance of paying their
poll taxes between now and the last
Of Decem bcr.- Florida Parishes.

loving letter to the Age Herald. OF
this city:
Il notice thct several newspapers
have recently connected my name with
political matters in such a manner
as 10 SHOW that my position is not
understood. ] desire, therefore. to
make the following statement
MY life work is the promotion Of
thc education of my race. II. Is we'll
known that have always advised my
people that It is Of supreme import
anco at this period Of their develop.
ment that they should concentrate
their thought and energy on the Sc.
curing CT homes. the cultivation OF
habits Of thrift. economy. skill. intel
ligence, high moral character and the
gaining Of tho respect and confidence
OF their noishbors. white and black
both in the South and North. From
such teaching and council no influence
cen ever divert me. These people at
present have no member of their race
in the national law making body, and
it is right that those charged with
making and executing the laws of the
land should at times seek Information
directly from the members Of the
negro race, when their relations with
the whites are concerned.
AT every opportunity I say to the
youth of our people that they will
make a mistake if they seek to sue
ceed in life by mere political activity
or the hope Of holding political offices
Now and then, however public ques-
tions affecting our interests arise
which are so far reaching that they
transcend the domain Of politics When
such questions present themselves. in
Justice to my race. make my posi-
tion known and stand for what / see to
e,right We cannot elevate and make
useful race Of people until there is
held out to them the hope Of reward
for right living.
Gas an educator, and not as a pol
itician, strive in every honorable
anr rational way to encourage the
wise and enduring progress of my
people. for if all inspiration and hope
Of reward is to be denied them. they
will be deprived of one of the great
est incentives to intelligence, indus
try and righteousness"
