fourteen years ago with but few members.

our people and the many natural adyan-

upon our community. Our little city has
blossomed. not like the rose for a season

rnanent manner. Rocky Ford has become
famous for her sweetness, her sugar and
honey: for her unexeelled and delicious

count Of its universally, and because il
has always given practical application to
the ehiefast Of the christian graces
Charity. Il has also been the most eff

aid it has given the church. From the
church Masonry has inherited that great
light. the Holy Bible. and on the other
hand Masonry has done for the church

Master. Solomon. did: at has built the

a gathering which will long be remember

SONS OF THE REVOLUTION.
Mr. Marshall Delaney Haywood Tells OF the
Convention at Washington.

After q weeks absence in Washing
ton and Baltimore, Mr.. Marshall De-
L.ancey Haywood yesterday returned to
Raleigh and reports an interesting meet
ing of the Sons of the Revolution, held
in Washington from the 18th to the 10Th,
instant. The other delegates present as
representatives of the North Carolina
society were Gen. James D. Glenn, of
Greensboro; DR.. Francis M. Clarke, of
Beaufort and Mr.. William Kearny
Carr, of Washington City.
The first courtesy extended to the
convention was a reception by President
Roosevelt, who received the delegates
at the White House on Friday morning.
The President is himself a member OF
the society in the State of Georgia, be-
ing lineally descended from President
Bullock, of the Provincial Congress of
that State, and from other Georgia pa
triots. After the reception at the White
House the convention proceeded by boat
to Mount Vernon and there held it's bus
mess meeting, it being the first time in
the history of Mount Vernon that any
society has ever been allowed the use
of the home of Washington, though
other meetings have taken place on the
grounds. After the convention an ad-
dress of great force and beauty was de-
livered at the tomb of Washington by
Rev. Thomas E. Green, of Iowa.
On Saturday the delegates from the
respective State societies were given an
exhibition in military manoevres by the
artillery and cavalry forces stationed at
Fort Myer, near Washington The trien-
NAL banquet of the society was held at
the new Willard Hotel on Saturday ev-
ening. At this entertainment were pres
New York society, Gen. Miles, M. Cam
bon, the French Ambassador, and other
distinguished guests.
A feature of the banquet was the pre-
sentation to the President of the Gen
eral Society, Ex-Governor Carroll, of
Maryland, of a massive silver punch
bowl. The address of presentation was
made by Hon. James Aston Cabell, of
Virginia. Governor Carroll has been
President of the society for twenty-five
years. He is a descendant of Charles
Carroll, of Carrollton, and owns the
Maryland mansion once occupied by that
great patriot.
The concluding exercises were held on
Sunday and consisted in religious ser
vices conducted at Church of the
Epiphany by the Rev. Randolph Harri-
son McKim, of Washington.
Much of the pleasure incident to the
meeting was due to the efforts OF the
District of Columbia society, whose
members We're tireless in their efforts
to promote the success of the conven-
ton. Delegates were present from all
parts of the United States. Hon. Pope
Barrow, of Georgia, is Vice President
Of the General Society.

RECEIPTS NOT NEEDED.
Law Requiring Poll Tax Receipts to be Shown
Doesn't Include Municipal Tax

The question has been asked many
times of late whether it will be neces-
sary for a citizen to show his city tax
receipt before he will be permitted to
vote. Yesterday News and Observer
man asked Mr.. James H. Pou for an
opinion on this subject. Mr.. Pou re-
ferred to section 13 of the election law,
Chapter 80, Laws of 1901, which states
'"rhat no person shall be entitled to vote,
unless he shall have paid bis poll tax
for the previous year. on or before the
first day of May of the year in which
he offers to vote, as prescribed under
Article v, Section 1, of the Constitu-
ton
Section / of Article V. of the Consti-
tuition reads: 1.-The General Assembly
shall levy a capitation tax on every
male inhabitant in the State over TWEEN
ty- one and under fifty years Of age,
which shall be equal on each to the tax
on property valued at three hundred
dollars in cash. The commissioners Of
the several counties may exempt from
capitaton tax in special cases, on &C
count of poverty and infirmity, and the
State and county capitation tax comDin-
ed shall never exceed two dollars On the
head"
This. Mr.. Pou said. specifies the State
and county poll tax, and clearly excludes
the idea of compelling the collection of
a municipal poll tax.
