DIsFRANCHIsED CITIZENS

In the Cl.nch Valley News we read
that most of the citizens of Taze-
wei will be disfraachised for the
municipal election n June because
hey failed to pay their poll tax six
months in advance of that time
But one member of the town council
will be a voter.
This seems rather harsh and nm
Just. Yet the one way for people
20 learn wisdom is by experience.
1t is safe TO say that hereafter the
Tazewell people VII keep the law
n mind and see that their poll tax
er are paid promptly y. 1t will be
the same way throughout the state
the law is maintained and en-
forced as it stands When a man
who has real interest in the affair.
OF his state or community ha,. lost
rs vote once or twice he will be
a very careful taxpayer as long as
he lives thereafter. All that W.
need to do is to give the voters full
opportunity to understand the law
and accustom themselves to 1t. AZ
ter that the thoughtful, thrifty and
proyident citizen whose vote and in
huence really mean something viii
always be quail fed to vote while the
careless, neglectfuI and improv dent
man will be yoiceless and help esz
until he learns better.-Richmond

The Yellow Peril

That confronting us on the Pa
eific lies ASIA with population OF
,OOO,000,000 people of the yellow
md brown race, who If unrestricted
would Overwhelmingly immigrate to
bur country of unrivaled resources.
II high wages and almost unlimited
apacity to support additional pop
liation; that pre-eminent among
-hese people stands Japan, strong,
aggressive, high-spirited, qualitI 8
which the American people admire,
out which if given play on American
soil wou d develop the strongest
lorm Of race antagonism.
That history teaches that Il is
impossible to develop a homeogen-
Gus people by the juxtaposition of
races differing in color upon the
anne soil; that under such condi-
ions race tolerance means an unde-
ilrable race amalgamation and that
ace intolerance means ult mately
race war or the reduction of one
'l the races to servitude.
That, therefore, our duty to our
race and our institutions and the
maintenance of friendship with the
aces differing in color alike demand
nat we abandon the attempted adj
Iustment of these quest on by inter-
national treaty and pass national
aw to take effect upon the expira-
ion of exiting treaties emphatical-
y declaring shat our country is
)peh to white immigration alone:
hat such immigration shall be re-
jtricted to those Of a constitution

Imately fit them for American cjli-
'enship, and that other races shall
De excluded from immigration except
