sED1ToR ADVERTISER: During
the term of court last week. ]
challenged the array of both the
grand and petit juries upon the
grounds that some of the gentle
men upon either panel had not
paid their poll tax and therefore
not qualified electors under the
Constitution of 1895, and in con-
sequence thereof not qualified
jurors in the eyes of the Law as I
construed it and 80 held by the
court.
For fear that some thus adjudg-
ed disqualified may have misun-
derstood my poaltion I deem it my
duty in justice to them to explain
that for years it has been the Gus
tom to exempt from poll tax school
trustees and other officials, and
the gentlemen excused fell with
IN that class. It, was no reflection
whatever upon them as they were

were exempt, but the law is plain

The club will have a suite OF
rooms-camrosed of reading room,
reception room, and a room for
Sundry games-where the mem
bers can while away their leisure
moments. Such an organization,
if conducted upon high plane,
will prove to be a great boon to
the bachelor element Of the com

become source of Generalization

cannot organize and properly
