NEGROES ARE PLEASED
 WITH INCREASED TAXES
J. R., ANDERSON SAYS CRIME WOULD INCREASE IF
 SCHOOL CLOSED.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 We are especially pleased to note the attitude our patrons have taken toward the call for an additional five mill tax to operate the public school. They have almost unanimously sign ed the agreement to pay the addition al five mills. In this matter, they have shown to the world that they are patriotic and progressive. The closing of the negro school at this time would have indeed been sad misfortune to the patrons. 1t would have caused the per cent of crimes among negroes to increase. The en- rollment is 205 Average daily at tendance 15O. Notwithstanding the overcrowded condition, efficient work is being done The school is 50 per cent better this year than ever. Every patron is working zealously for the betterment of his child and using every possible means to pro- mote it's educational welfare.
 Respectfully,
 J. R. Anderson, Principal.

From Saturdays Daily

From Saturdays Daily
 w. E. Clibourn of Conway is one among eight state game wardens who were dismissed by the state game and fish commission yesterday afternoon, as a result of an injunction suit brought to tie up the funds of the commission. The suit, which was filed by former Attorney General Hal Norwood in the name of H. F. Jack tried this morning, but message from Little Rock states the case was continued.
 Members who attended a meeting of the commission yesterday said nonresident hunters are responsible for bringing the recent suit which seeks to tie up the game protection fund. Until the suit in the Pulaski chancery court is decided, efforts to enforce the game and fish law virtu- ally will cease. Eight game wardens employed by the commission will be temporarily dismissed.
 The suit which asks that the state auditor and state treasurer be en- joined from paying money out of the game fund on the ground that no specific appropriation was made by the last legislature. It was filed by Hal Norwood, former attorney gener- al, in the name of H. F. Jackson of Lonoke. Under an agreement with Mr. Norwood, the commission was permitted to pay out of the funds bills contracted prior to January 1.
 More than 20 residents of Tennes- see were convicted and fined from $50 to $100 each for nonresident hunting, but Governor Hays relieved them of payment of the fines.
 Med Donaldson of Paragould, one of the commissions game wardens has secured more than 50 convictions i for violations of the law. Fines az gregating $1,700 were assessed aginst the violators, but have not been paid because the cases have been appealed from the justice to the circuit courts he said.
 Those who attended the meeting were D. G. Beauchamp, of Paragould Lee Miles of Little Rock, secretary and Senator c. c. Calvert of Fort Smith.

NO COMMISSION
 ON SPECIAL TAX

Before leaving Conway to begin hls tax collecting rounds, Sheriff w. w. Bishop authorized the Log Cabin Democrat to state that he would not charge any commission for collect ing the extra hve-mill tax proposed to be paid voluntarily in Conway as a means of relieving the financial diff faculties of the local school district. If the full amount to be raised from this source should be collected, the col lector's commission would amount to more than S100, but MT. Bishop said that in addition to paying the extra levy on his own property he will do- nate his services as collector to the district.
 The money collected from the extra tax, it is understood, will be paid directly to the board by the sheriff and will be used by it in the opera ton of the school until revenues from the regular tax become available.

WHAT CATARRH IS

It has been said that every third person has catarrh in some form.
 Science has shown that nasal catarrh often indicates a general weakness of the body; and local treatments in the form of snuffs and vapors do little, if any good.
 To correct catarrh you should treat it's cause by enriclling your blood with the oilfood in Scott's Emulsion which is medicinal food and building tonic, free from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.
