LAST DAY To
PAY POLL TAXES
To Vote in the Primaries
They Must Be Settled
by Tonight.

Today is the last day in which poll
taxes can be paid and the party who
fails to do SO will not be qualified TO
vote in the white Democratic pTi-
maTie5 to nominate city officials.
Yesterday Witnessed another rush
at the Office of Tax Collector Roberts
and large numbers qualified them
selves by paying their poll taxes.
Many remain, however. who are not
qualified, being under the impression
that iuasmuch as they voted in the
county election of last summer they
are qualified for the city primaries.
Such is not the case, as poll taxes
must be paid before a person is quail
fed to vote.

had stationed at the front door. Mr..
LangstOn himself passed through the
house into the back room and was
shot by the negro from his hiding
place.
Finding that his chief was mOrtaIIy
wounded, the deputy at once ran out
for assistance and organized a posse
TO give chase to the murderer. TeIe-
phone messages were sent to ITALIA

ately to the scene of the tragedy and

rode into the town of Aiken in col
umn of twos The flag, which was
in itself not very heavy required
very strong and muscular man to
handle it when We began to gallop,
and Milledge Horn was selected as
fag-bearer. He was six feet high,
weighed over 200 pounds and was cor
respondingly muscular, and had lost
five brothers in the Confederate army,

daring. AS soon as We reached Aiken
we rode quietly by every house where
the ladies had been at work on our
shirts, so as to let them see us. Then

a line nearly a quarter of mile long,

an hour or more in washing the dirt

"At that time there was stationed
at Aiken a company Of United States

bluff overhanging Coker Spring. The

Mexico as a Cattle Country,

Mexico is fast becoming the great
cattle country of the American CONT
nent, and Northern Mexico is the ideal
cattle country of Mexico" said G. B.
McDermott, of Nacozari, who was in
Houston yesterday. ''As the farmers
and sheepmen have forced the cattle
men Of the great Southwest of the
United States to move their ranges,
they are naturally seeking the most
favorable localities, and Northern
Mexico seems to appeal more forcibly
to them than any other section. Cat
re are being moved rapidly into Mex
ice from the United States, and the
cattlemen of Mexico are now paying
more attention to their herds than
formerly, with the result that an eX-
cellent quality of beef is being built
up in the republic. Houston Post.
