MEME.

Every good citizen of Texas should
rejoice over the passage of the poll
tax law, for it means much to the
State. 1t means that every male
citizen who is subject to poll tax
must pay same by February 1st of
each year, or be debarred from vot-
ing. 1t means that there will be
no more buying and selling of votes
in our elections, both city and State.
It means more money for our schools
and fewer tax dodgers.

"WOW AND WAMPUS"
IN STORE FOR NEXT MEETING
coLoRED X. p. GRAND LODGE.
Forrest Gay and J. C. Dukes Both
Claim to Be Chancellor, With
Odds on Gay.

There are several interesting phases
to the controversy which is agitating
the colored Knights of pythias of Ar
kansas brought about by the shortage
of Forrest Gay, and the alleged over
throw Of Gay by Editor }. G. Dukes.
of the Pine Bluff Herald.
There has been no change in the
status of the affair for the last three
weeks. The courts refused to give
either Gay or Dukes relief and they
both contend that each is grand chan
cellor. and both are being recognized
as such by the different lodges.
The constitution of the lodge vests
the grand chancellor alone with the
power to call a meeting of the grand
lodge. and at this meeting the grand
chancellor's report is submitted and
left with committee to examine. This
law Of the order was not followed in
the overthrow of Gay, SO his support,
ers contend. and, therefore, he is still
grand chancellor.
The meeting of the grand lodge will
be the most interesting features of the
affair. Both Gay and Dukes will
doubtless issue calls for the meeting,
and then wrangle will ensue as to
which is authorized to call the meet
ing. From the outlook Gay will prob
ably be recognized as grand chancel-
lor, but at any rate, not before bit
