MISCELLANEOUS MARKETS.
DRY GOODS MARKET.

NEW YORK, April 27.-The dry goods
market was little improved to-day insofar
as demand affected 1t, but the prices at
which buyers were seeking goods were nor
attractive. especially In cotton yarns. Mills
are declining business at some OF the prices
offered. and are giving notice OF a determI-
nation to curtail production still further. A
few lines OF well-styled dress goods are
meeting with very satisfactory sale, but
the trade as whole Is quiet. Raw silk is
easier. Cotton yarns were steady but very
quiet. II there was any change for the day
1t was in the direction OF a more hopeful
feeling about the long future.

Pay Your Poll Tax.
Natesville Land ark.

8tatesville Landmark.
One of the provisions Of the cOnsti-
tutiOnal amendment adopted In 1900
that no person liable to poll tax can
vote unless he has paid such tax for
the previous year by May. 1st of the
wear in which the election is held.
Everybody who can read knows this
but every election year there is a
great stir to get poll taxes paid by
May LIST. The taxes were due last
September. They must be paid some
time, no matter whether one votes
or not, and surely, seeing that pay
ment must be made, one who wishes
to do so can pay within seven months
after the taxes are due. 1t is and al
WAYS has been the Landmarks Opin-
ion that Il voter who cared SO little
about the right of suffrage as to
neglect to pay his poll taxa duty
he owes the Government as IL good
citizen-within the period named, de-
serves to be disfranchised, but he
should remember that his dis
reimbursement does not discharge his
tax obligation. This is an impor
tant election year The State pro-
hibitiOn election occurs May 26,
county and State officers, mem bers
of Congress and n President will be
elected in November. Voters liable
to poll tax, who desire to participate
in these elections, would do we'll to
get a poll tax receipt within the next
six weeks.
