HAVE NOW PAID
1912 POLL TAX
DESPITE INcLEMENT WEATHER
QUITE A LARGE NUMBER
QUALIFIED, BUT FULLY HALF
OF THE REGISTERED VOTERS
OF THE COUNTY HAVE NOT
DONE so YET.

Despite the Indictment weather yes
terday, quite a number of citizens
called at the Office Of the tax collector
to pay poll taxes and qualify to par
ticipate In the primaries to be held In
the near future. The total number
paid before the Office closed yesterday
afternoon was something like 1900. ac-
cor1ing to Tax Collector Roberts, and,
possibly. a few more.
THIS number is scarcely half OF the
persons who are liable for poll taxes,
however, and the time is becoming
very limited IN which they can be paid
there remaining now only four days,
including today. It is urged for the
convenience of all concerned, both those
paying and the tax collector, that as
many attend TO this matter today as
can possibly do so. If you are a resi-
dent Of the city II Will require only a
few minutes to go to the tax collector 8
office and obtain your receipt, while If
YOU live elsewhere In the county and
are coming here to pay your poll tax
you can do so as well today as to-
morrow, or the next day. Let the other
fellow be the one to have to be IN the
rush that is sure to occur at the last
minute

SAFETY BOARD
TO DISPOSE OF
APPLICATIONS
AT REGULAR MEETING YEsTER
DAY AFTERNOON RESOLUTION
WAS ADOPTED REQUIRING THE
CHEF OF FIRE DEPARTMENT
TO PRESENT APPLICATIONS FOR
POSITIONS AT FIRST MEETING.

Some interest was injected into an
otherwise dull and listless meeting
when E. P. Preston introduced a reso-
luton at the board Of public safety
session, held yesterday afternoon, re-
curing the chief of the fire depart
ment to submit all applications for po-
sitions IN the fire department to the
board at the next meeting held after
the application is filed. The chief of
the department opposed the resolution
saying that there was, in his opinion,
no use in electing men members Of the
department when there were no open
nigs for them and would be no work
for them. However, the resolution
was adopted, after some discussion.
There were no trials In either Of the
departments and the remainder Of the
session was given entirely to disposing
of the regular monthly business, such
as approving the payrolls and receiv-
ing the reports of the departments.
The reports contained nothing out of
the ordinary and the meeting was a
brief one.

is understood that the forest depart
ment is in favor Of II. The counties
in which the land lies win be asked
to cooperate in the effort to have the
