st. Helena Echo: The next
general state and parish election
will come off in the spring of 1908.
To be able to vote at that election a
man must have his poll tax receipts
for the years 1906 and 1907, aud
these receipts must be dated prior
to the first day of January of each
year. Votes may be very uncon-
cerned about this matter now, but
they will faint all over it when the
time for voting comes and they
cannot dos so because they did not
pay their poll tax. You will pay
it sooner or later, and why not
come to the court house and pay it
in due timei Give this matter
serious consideration now before il
is too late.

We would like to see the amend.

We would like to see the amend
ment in regard to the courts of ap-
peal, which will be submitted to
the voters on Nov. 9Th, receive the
active support Of our people. The
bar of this city has unanimously
endorsed the amendment, which,
if adopted, will afford substantial
and much needed improvement to
the judicial system. AT present
the district judges have to do the
work of circuit judges, and the re.
suit is that one must be neglected
to some extent in order that the
other might be attended to. This
court has jurisdiction of appeals in
cases involving less than $1,000
so it most concerus people of small
means, and we believe the proposed
amendment should be adopted at
the November election. -OpelouSas

STARVING MISERS.

John a. Quinn miserly her
nit, has died of starvation at Paris,
Tenn, though in his house were
found cash and securities sufficient
to have kept him in comfort for
years. In loving his money better
than his life he has lost both. He
was fool that the world is well
rid of. But, extreme as was his
case, he is only type of thousands
of others whose nim is ever tC Get
AID never to give. A notable
mlser here and thyre represents the
extreme degree to which life may
be narrowed down by love of
money. But countless millions
are narrowing their lives every day
from the same cause. Few of us
may have the physical aIlihood
to actually starve ourselves to
death for moneys sake, but o
what lot of us starve the mind
and the sonl for ltl Only for his
severe self-denial, which is really a
quality excellence, Quinn would
have been no worse nor better than
millions of others who love money
as well as he did but love personal
comfort more. The miser loves the
money itself; he revels in contcm
plation of the fact that 1t is his.
The most of us who hold ourselves
to be superior to him love the
qualification Of the physical senses
which money buys. Aud the gone
love is as vain, nS purpr-rirsS and |
as utterly selfish as the other.
Whether one man permits his love
for his few hundreds to isolate him
from his fellows, or another allows
his millions to dry up his affections
and deaden his human sympathies,
makes little difference in the long
run. The one is starving himself
quite as actually as is the other.
The ideals blasted, the opportuui-
ties lost, the joys atrophied in the
the lives of millions, every day, by
the love of money-who can count
themi There are misers-lots of
them-whose love of money has
killed all that is best in their souls,
but who still stand among us as
prominent and respectable figures.
The miser is the poorest of men,
for while he lives solely for self,
ne gets less out of life than any
other man. He has money, but
1enies himself the things that
money can buy. In making money
,he end instead of the means of
life, he narrOws his purposes
Ind achievements down to nothing
less. lie who, for the sake of
aving, denies himself the riches ,
If sympathy and helpfulness and
Ilienates himself in spirit from his
elbows is the poorest of all paup-
RS. But the miserliness that leads
o starvation of the body is not the
lind that does most damage in this

and will act as governor of that is
land. Washington dispatches say
that statement issued under au-
thority declares that President
Roosevelt's purpose is to set the
republic on its feet again and not
to encourage annexation sentiment,
Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, in
his stump speeches, declares that
Cuba will be annexed and that the
American flag will ''stay put" on
the island. Senator Foraker is
quoted as saying that there has
been no legal Intervention yet, but
merely the use of the army and
navy to protect the property of
American citizens in Cuba. Sen
ator Foraker says that in a legal
sense only congress, acting with
the president, can declare the in
tervention contemplated in the
Platt amendment. If the Foraker
view be accepted generally, then
the whole question of Intervention
and annexation may be threshed
out in congress,in which event it is
not unlikely powerful interests will
put annexation to the front. Mr..
