voters will remember that there is proposed amendment to the consti. tuition to be voted on in the election on September }rd This amendment if adopted, permits any district to levy a tax of seven mills instead of five mills as al present if a majority shall so vote The school revenue for St. Francis county for the present year amounted to $40. 2s7 10. If this is not sufficient for school purposes. the remedy should not be by an in. crease Of taxation, but by proper equalization of the assessed valuations. Should the amendment become law every negro district in the county will be certain 10 vote to raise the tax tc seven mills because il will mean more money out of the white mans pocket for negro education. IL is true that education is good thing and neces- sary; We are quite crank about edu- cation; also that there are many good reasons, perhaps, why this amend ment should pass. but We desire to put our readers on the defensive. and at least ask them To reason the matter out 10 satisfactory conclusion.
