Information has reached Democratic
State Chairman J. Taylor EllySon that
the Republicans are actively AT work IN

These tidings do not come from the
Ninth district alone, said Mr. Ellyson.
.'as was the case last year This time
my information is that all overthe State
the Republicans are busy; that voters
are being urged to pay their taxes; that
those who cannot pay are receiving pc
cuniary assistance, and that all who
have not paid are being laid siege toand
urged to quality themselves.
Though do notapprehend any great
danger to the Democratic party, it will
be- well for us To take nothing for grant
ed. The last day on which poll taxes
can be paid is May x. and there is need
for all Democratic votes at all times.
