TAME CITY CAMPAIGN

 Selma, Jan. 24.
 The present municipal campaign promises to be one of the tamest in the history of the city. Nc interest is being taken in the approaching city election and politics is being talk ed very little by the citizens. With the exception of councilmen it Is now believed that practically all of the candidates for the several city of Aces have made their announcements. The city comprises i've wards and from each ward there is to be elected two councilmen.s So far from but one ward has there been made any announcement for the position of councilmen Tn the Fourth Ward there has been made two announce ments. those of L.. D. Mullen, one of the present incumbents. and T. J.. Wiggins. There is little likelihood of any one else announcing in that ward and the two gentlemen will be elected without opposition.
 From the other four wards there has been made no announcemnts for councilmen. Efforts are making by the citizens of each of these wards to get some of the best men to come out and run for the !ofiice but these efforts SO far have been futile and the PtdSo OA Sitg tdtHNl ID BoiH6 bGB 6ii6s In the list of candidates for the city offices there does not appear the name of any candidate who does not already hold an office or who Is not in the employ of the city. But all of these officers have made most capa- bie and efficient officials for the city and 1t is for that reason that they are without opposition.
 Paying Poll Tax Slew.
 The cotizens of the city aud of Dal- las county are vea,yslow n the pay ing of their poll 9x his year. said Tax Collector C.. P. Morrison this morning. So far there has been is- sued in the county only about 400 poll tax receipts for the year. The ma jority of these receipts have been is- sued to people. living in the country. While but few people have so far paid their poll tax the tax collectors s office expects a great rusf In this line within the next few days. The peo- pie in the city wA0 pay poll tax generally wait .ntii the few days just before February 1st when they think of them and rush around to the collectors office and take Tout their receipt.
