DECISION WILL BAR MANY VOTERS Poll Tax Receipts Must Be Dated Before First Mon
 day in July.
TO ENFORCE DEGREE
Prosecutor Rogers Announces That Law Is to Be Observed in Com.
 ing City Primaries.

Little Rock, Jan. 10.-An opinion that will revolutiondze the primary and general election contests in Ar kansas was handed down in the Su- preme court yesterday. The text of the opinion is directly opposed to fhse practices of allowing suffrage taxpayers who do not hold poll tax receipts dated prior to the close of the tax-paying period of the preceding year, the first Monday in July.
 The opinion is delivered to apply to general elections. But section g, Act 165, of the laws of Arkansas, en- acted in 1909, requires that voters in primary elections shall have the same qualifications as voters in the gen. er,al elections. Thus the new inter- pretation of the law reduces the sit uat.on to this:
 That a person who has not paid his poll tax between the first Monday in January and the Saturday preceding the first Monday in July of the same year, will not be allowed to vote in elections, either during the early part of the next year.
 The law on the subject states that person who casts vote without this qualification, though he be oth- erwise qualified, shall be guilty of a falnny and upon conviction shall be subjected to a penalty of not less than six months nor more than five years in the penitentiary. It also holds the judge or judges of an elec- tion as parties to the crime, if they allow person to cast his ballot who has not qualified in this way.
 The opinion was rendered by Judge Will am F. Kirby, and was a rever- sal of the lower court, which had ruled that a poll tax receipt, dated

 Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pinkham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in re- turn except your good will, and her edvice has helped thousands. Surely any, woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this gener- ous offer of assistance.

election, would qualify person to cast his vote, other requirements having been met
 Decision Causes Sensation. Coming as it does, upon the eve of a primary election in Little Rock, the opinion throws bomb in the ranks of candidates and supporters. Here tofore when elections have been held voters otherwise qualifying have been allowed to cast their votes if they could produce poll tax receipt dat ed perhaps only a day or few days before the date of the election
 The case from which the decision arose was not an important one But lawyers who were engaged realized that there was a question of import ance in the interpretation of the election laws of Arkansas involved, and after having been decid- ed against in the lower court, carried 1t to the Supreme Court Lewis Rhoton was chief counsel, and ar gued the case, which was that of J. M White ct al, vs. w A. Me Hughes, ct al.
 School Election Involved.
 The case involved a school election held in the special school district of Owen township, Pulaski county, May ha a1o with poll tax receipts bought in 1910. some days before the election, voted for w. A. MeHughes and appellees.s
 It was contended by J. M. White and other appellants that these A. persons were not entitled to vote because they did not have poll tax receipt obtained between the first Monday in January and the Saturday next preceding the first Monday in July. 1909, Trial court decided that they were entitled to vote on the poll tax receipt obtained in 1910.
 The Supreme Court, after a recital or the points involved, unqaulifiedly nolos' lh the following words, that only those who had obtained poll tax receipts during the tax-paying per Tod of 1909. were entitled to vote. The court says:
 Tt follows that persons required to pay poll tax not having done so ana oota'ned receipt therefor dur Ing the time for collecting taxes be- tween the said period, the first Mon day in. January and the Saturday preceding the first Monday in July or the year 1909, were not qualified electors and not entitled to vote, nor eligible to hold office at the electioo held in May, 191O."
