,xt year. registered voters in Richmond
t1st pay their poll tax this year.
Srhis Is matter OF great Importance to
.a,1tv,dual voters and to the city as a
mole. Last year the poll TAX was as
.fxsed against 22.ooo persons in the city
Richmond, but only $500 OF these paid
% tax prior to December 1st
fills year tina poll tax has been as
rssed against 71.7n persons, OF whom
tsos are white and $685. are colored.
IT is plain to see that unless the voters
81 Richmond are more diligent this year
Z an they were last year in paying the
III tax. very few parsons will be per-
rtted TO vote in the municipal election
It June.
our Information Is that many more per-
Z AZ have paid the poll tax this year. but

I. go them to pay up hett \ the time ex.
res.
Many are forgetfu1 or different. and

j conrnercial, financial and manufactur-
-ts institutions OF the city. and to all
rsons having white men in their en-
:,ynnent, the propriety Of calling the at
alton Of such persons to the importance
paying poll tax. A little judicious work
