Cairo will be a much better town
to live in when all of the laws are en-
forced. II there are any ordinances
that are unfair the voters have the
power under the new form of gov
eminent to abolish them. but until
this is done let us enforce and obey
the law in every detail.
For those who are not familiar
with the law we will state that only
lunatics, idiots, paupers and few
others are exempt from paving the
poll tax Every other man between
the ages of y and so years must
either pay the fee or work two days
on the streets with the pick and
shovel Ten hours constitutes a
days labor The law provides that
the street supervisor shall serve a
notice three days before he desires
you to work or pay the tax If you
do not respond at the end of the sec
ond day and pay up. it is the super
visor's duty to report you to the city
attorney, who. in turn, is Obliged to
bring action against you. The pun
ishment is a fine Of one to ten dol
lars.
Unless you are younger than q.
or older than so, or a Grippe the
only other excuses you can offer for
not working or paying the tax would
involve your mental or financial con-
dition. You would have to convince
the judge you We're either an idiot,
lunatic or a pauper. Under the cir
.cumstanees don't you think it would
be more desirable to pay up? This
is all the law asks you to do.

Paw Your Poll Tax.

Have you paid your poll tax? II
you haven't you had better watch
out, or Street Supervisor Dacre5 vii
get you and make you work on the
streets for two days.
1t has been so long since the last
serious effort was made to enforce
the poll tax law that the present
activities of Street Supervisor Dacres
have oecasioned both surprise and
indignation. The street supervisor
has been busy for several days serv-
ing notice on every able. bodied male
resident between the ages of Fl and
so years TO report to him prepared
for two days service on the streets
or prepared to pay $3.50.
Some men are Of the opinion that
the law is unfair, inasmuch as the
city has other means Of keeping the
streets in condition However, this
does not give them any excuse for
evading the work, or making the
payment in Communication of the la
Dor. Others have not considered pay
ing the tax because of the fact that
the work OF the street supervisor In
the past had been greatly regulated
by the politicians. One OF the
methods pursued by the ward heel
ers in binding the friendship Of
some qualified voter was to have the
street supervisor fail to enforce the
law in the particular instance.
1t seems to be the intention of the
new administration to enforce the
law in every detail and without
favor or discrimination. The street
supervisor gives every indication OF
carrying out his part of the work.

treatment and second, because 1t
will give the people an opportunity
of Tearing just how much influence
the Cairo Trust Property Company
has with the Commercial Club. The
people of Cairo have reached such
an advanced stage of civic develop
ment that they not only want TO
know, but demand TO know who is
who and why in all matters that
concern the welfare of the city.
The packet company claims IL for
merly was required to pay $3.50 for
the landing privilege at Cairo on
each round trip, but now the charge
is $3.50 for each landing, or $3.50
a trip. They declare the charge is
so exorbitant that they will pass
by Cairo rather than pay il. They
look upon the Commercial club for
protection and have a right to ex-
pect it.
What under the sun has occurred
that would justify the doubling of
the wharfage charge? The cost of
maintaining the levee certainly has
not been doubled and the company
surely can not claim that its BUSH
ness was affected by the recent
foods. To all accounts the floods
were paying proposition.
What would the Commercial club
do if some company. controlled by
citizen, was possessed of the right
to charge the railroad companies a
fee for every train that came in the
city and IL all of the railroad COM
panies would pass Cairo without
stopping rather than pay it? Would
the club hold an indignation NEE
ing This is what the Cairo Trust
Property Company threatens to do
with the steamboat companies. s
If the Commercial club finds that
it cannot obtain recognition from
the trust property company it might
retaliate by demanding that the
civ assess and collect increased
taxes from the company for the levee
property. This may be done any
way and the commercial organiza-
ton is presented with an opportun-
ity to inaugurate the innovation. 1t
Is certain that no reduction can be
obtained by legal process.

This is the birthday of John Wes-

political circles but whose uniyer-
sity is celebrated with great rever-
ence by millions of Methodists who
are following his recipe for saint
making with great success.
Wesley was born in England.
June II, 1908. He went to Oxford,
and after notable athletic and So
cial career became deacon and set
tied down to life of endowed piety
in the English church.
Wesley attended the local plays
and fairs, shot plovers and enjoyed
himself as an English rector until
his attention was one day turned to-
wards religion. He then began to
study theology and to analyze his
soul with great diligence. and in
order to perfect himself for his flu
ture work he returned to Oxford and
lived on Sl4e year. In 1895 he
came to Georgia to convert the In
dams, but found more promising ma
terial among the English at Savan-
nah and organized church which
he called the Methodist church. His
health falling, he returned to Lon

IMethodist manner and went forth to
preach in the fields and streets.
From this time Wesley's eloquence
was irresistible and he converted
mass meetings. not even usurers and
politicians escaping His church
grew rapidly in spite of great oppo-
sition. Wesley faced mobs all his
life and learned to look ut a seeth-
ing multitude, armed with bricks. in
the eyes with more calmness than
the modern candidate can face three
voters armed with a request for an
appointment.
Wesley lived to a great old age,
and before he died in 1871, he be-
queathed the Methodist church TO
the membership by appointing 100
pastors to look after its affairs.
John Wesley was greatly beloved
and is still glorified But some at

up nearly score of children on a
rector's salary so carefully that
three of them became famous minis

Being ENLARGED

On account of the steadily increas-

of more room, work was commenced
this morning on enlarging the quar-
tiers of the Young Women's Christian
Association in the Boston building.
For the past two months the mem
bership of the association has been on
the increase to such an extent that il
has been found impossible to accom-
modate all the girls who are in the
habit of taking their lunches at the
building, and for this reason this de-
partment is now being enlarged and

ing moved into another room with
more floor space "A smaller dining
room has been turned into private
restroom for the convenience of the
members who wish to spend quiet
hour at the association. The kitchen
has also been overhauled and more
room added.
The association now has total 0i
466 paid-up members, 81 of these hav
ing been received since the first Of
March, as against ten for the entire
month of March in 1912.
On Monday afternoon, at 5 o'clock
there will be meeting at the assoc
citation of all young women interested
in any phase of athletics. This meet
ing is for the purpose of organizing
