II is important that every white GU
izen should register. Failure to reg
lister is likely to cause serious embar-
rassment to the individual and 1t may
cause embarrassment to the county.
And still there is very little interest
in the county political situation. At this
writing it looks as if the vote In the
primary is going to be very small
hardly more than two-thirds Of what
it could be.
In the paragraph in this column
Tuesday referring to comparison OF
The ENQUIRER with other county pa
pers, the word "persual" was changed
into refusal" We desired our read
ers to have the opportunity to "pe-
ruse" all the other papers so they coulo
get a better idea of the character oi
service The Enquirer is giving.
Get your name on your club roll. II
it was there two years ago and your
roll has not been lost it is there now
But if your name was not on the club
roll two years ago, it is not there now
unless you have caused 1t to be en-
rolled. By all means get your name
on your club roll before August 20.

Ten days or two weeks ago, the
clamor that was going up on account
Of the Saye law would have led one
to believe that the people throught their
property in danger Of confiscation and
their sons would be put on the chain
gang; but in the light of general ex-
plantations that have been made dur
ing the last week, there has been a
noticeable subsistence of the alarm.
AS a matter of fact, the people were
not concerned about the Saye law un-
til the politicians began to get busy.
People generally who had read the
law had recognized it as a good meas
ure and hailed it in the light of the
greatest step i'm the direction of prog
ress that the county had ever made.
1t was so just, equitable, and demo-
cratic in it's provisions, that it did
not occur to anybody that there could
But when the politicians began to get
busy, things began to look different.
Unsuspecting people were told all
kinds of unreasonable and impossible
things. The three dollar capitatiOn tax
was made to appear as the first and
only thing of the kind that had ever
been devised. and people who were
unable to read and analyZe the law
for themselves were made to believe
that it was so different from anything
that had ever been thought of before
as to be positively dangerous to their
liberty. Some of the stories that were
told were simply amazing.
One of the favOrite games Of dis
SenSiOn sewers during the past few
weeks, has been to put in an interval
of misrepresentation in some particu
lar section and then come back at
people who understand the law and
think it u good thing with: Il tell

of congress who believe in it's validi-
ty and who are willing to enact 1t.
At least one member of the house ju-
dietary committee has been defeated
for the nomination on his record on
this question and we believe that the
time has come when our people who
want to help secure this legislation
must support for congress candidates
who will not only vote for this meas
ure if they get chance but will them
selves support for speaker a man
who will allow il to be voted upon,
and that its passage is improbable un-
til Christian members recognize this
situation and cast their ballots ac-
cordingly."
