We have been requested to cal
attention to practice which Is
quite common, never the less, il
neglected, becomes abusive
Where farmers have to haul cane
from their fields, over the public
roads, to shipping poiut, it is
quite common for them to bridge
the drain or ditch of the road, at
the point where they wish to
cross, with cane tops and other
trash. This bridge expedlent is
too frequently neglected after
rendering It's service ana is not
promptly removed. 1t forms a
complete dam and forces the
waters over the rOadbed, causing
public injury. 1t is TO be hoped
that those who make a conven
fence Of the practice will see to 1t
that 1t is not allowed to become
al abuse.

Direct Roads.

The people of this section is
feeling the necessity of taking all
the short cuts possible. to any
given poidt, and in consequence
direct roads are becoming more
and more popular. A few years
ago q shorter cat was made to
the Spanish Lake section by the
opening Of the Darby road.
When tle McllbeDuey road was
proposed il found favor at once
with q large majority of the Gil.

A new proposition is now shap.

CITY OFFICIAL JOURNAL,
The Poll Tax.

The commonly used trade in
junction, Come early and avoid
the rush." is peculiarly apt at
this time in calling the attention
of those t" their duty who have
not yet paid their poll tax This
week has been Ousy one in the
Collectors office. A line of tax.
payers in waiting to get to the
window has been of repeated
occurrence during the week. TO
those Who live at distant points
in the parish, or who are very
busy at this season, this waiting
is incOnvenient TO all sucn we
would suggest that they leave
their name and the 81. with a
friend or agent who will see to it,
that their poll tax is paid and
receipt issued prior to next Sat
urday.
The possibility of a citizenship
being nulIified at the Collector s
window, by the inability Of the
regular and only collector to
issue receipts to all applicants who
may apply within tEe remaining
four days. prompts the sugses
ton that the Sheriff would be
displaying creditablc bit of
magnaulmOus spirit should he see
fit to install an assistant collector
for the brief period, whose ex
elusive duty would be to prepare
poll tax receipts. Such an officer
would avoid the possibility Of u
ssshut out 1t would save
tedious waiting to busy people.
and would leave the regular off
Ger free to the issuing of the more
complex property tax receipts,
The law provides that every
citizen must pay his poll tax on
or before the last day of the year
for which it Is due. 1t further
provides that ones voting priv
leges shall be abrOgated it the poll
tax is not paid Within the pres
cr;bed time, These restrictions
and requirements have been i'm
posed solely with view of pu,i
flying the ballot The aim of the
trainers of the States constitution
aud its election laws was to peace
fully perpetuate white mans
government, under which all
qualified citizens were privileged
to vote freely, according to the
dictates of the individuals jldg
ment; and in which all ballots in
telllgently east shall be honestly |
counted and returned.
The contingency Of a possible
Acknowledgement at a tax collec
tors window was never contem
plated by the law makers.
Where the rule is being en-
forced, that property taxes must
also be paid prior to the close of
December, it is natural, and only
reasonable, to expect that one
collector would have more to do
in the closing days of the year
than 1t would be possible for one
man, however apt and quick he
may be, to accomplish. Ii either
taxpayer is to have the right of
way to the collectors window, let
it be the poll tax .payer-fOr il is
far more serious for the State,
through it's agent, to forfeit
citizenship, than it would be for
it to collect arbitrarily an interest

WINE MAKERS
AWAIT YERKES
Internal Revenue Commits
si0ner Coming to Look Into
the Matter of FOrtifying
MAY NOT USE RAISINS
Law EXempts Only the Pure
Article From Tax on Grape
Brandy Used in Product
MAY NOT USE RAISINS

United States Internal Revenue Com
missioner John W. Yerkes is expected
to arrive in this city on May l. His
visit to California is authoritatively
declared to be- for the purpose of in
turing and fortifying sweet wines in
relation to the internal revenue. Unit
ed States Internal Revenue Agent Bert
M. Thomas discovered some months
ago that during the heavy rains last
fall many thousands of second crop
raisin grapes were spoiled on the trays
in the fields, and that these spoiled
raisins were utilized by the sweet
WINE makers in the manufacture of
wines and the brandy with which they
are fortified. The law allows grape
brandy to be manufactured for forti-
ficatfon purposes TO the extent OF twen-
ty-four parts in 100 parts of wine free
of internal revenue tax, but 1T spe-
cifically declares that such sweet wines
must be made from the pure juice or
fresh grapes, and the brandy must be
made from such wines, but that raisins
or dried grapes must not be used Tor
making either the brandy or the wine
under severe penalties. Mr.. Thomas
reported what he had learned to the
commissioner
ifornia Wine Associa ton has made GER
tain representations in the matter
which it is the intention of Commis-
sioner Yerkes to inquire into During
his stay in this State the Commissioner
will make an exhaustive study Of the
whole subject in order that justice may
be done to the Government and to the
winemakers.
The total amount Of moneys with

uty Internal Revenue Collector S. L.
Hogue of the Fresno district Is $500
AS soon as the irregularity was dis
covered Mr.. Hogue made good, but he
has been indicted by the Federal Grand
Jury in Los Angeles and will be tried
at the next term of the Federal court
in that city.
Collector Lynch says that the books
of his office are in shipshape order.
Every year since he has been in the
Office he has been complimented by the
Commissioner for the excellent showing
he has made
The Commissioner has recommended
to- Congress that tax be imposed upon
brandy used in fortifyins sweet wines
at the rate of % cents for each gallon

BILLS OF THE COUNTY
HOSPITAL WILL BE PAID
Arrange With Auditor to
Make Up an Apparent Oyerdraft
on ApprOpriatiOn

The Supervisors Finance Commit
tee yesterday arrived at an under
standing with Auditor Baehr and
Warden Fleming of the County Hos
pita1 whereby the bills for supplies Of
the institution for January and Feb
ruary, which have been temporarily
held up, will be paid.
Auditor Baehr stated that Il the
demands of January and February
were paid there would be an overdraft
of $6315 55. The total amount avail
able for the first nine months of the
fiscal year was $649 10. against which
bills have been incurred for $6903 81,
making a deficit of S4065 81 on April
1. Baehr said that last year he had
allowed an overdraft of $4,000 at the
instance of the Finance Committee
that had been subsequently made up.
The use of S414 so will be allowed out
of the salary account, leaving an ap
parent deficit of $500, which will be
made up in the next three months.
Warden Fleming said he never had a
doubt that the deficit could be easily
made up in view of the fact that the
expenses from now on will be less
than during the winter months 1t
was decided to- draw further on the
salary account to pay the bills If nee
eSsary.
