To Returned Soldiers.

We print below the opinion
Of Atty. General, A. V. Coco,
regarding soldiers right to
vote, his poll tax not having
been paid.
Under Act 271 of 1918,
amending Article 1913 of the
Constitution, above referred
to, the provisions of said Ar
ticle as to the payment of
poll taxes as a prerequisite to
the right to vote are made in
applicable to persons in the
military service of a State or
Of the United States during
the time Of the war, and to
persons who entered the
service after the first of Janu-
ary, 1916, and who have been
honorably discharged pro
vided that such person shall
pay all poll taxes assessed
against him after his dis
charge
AS | construe this Article,
all persons who were drafted
in the late war after January
lst, 1916, were exempt from
the payment Of a poll tax as
a prerequisite to vote, and
have the right to exercise the
right Of franchise and parti-
clpate in primary elections
and any other methods of
nominations, without
regard to the provisions rela-
tive to the payment of poll
taxes.
The proviso in the Article |
above referred to that such
persons shall pay all poll
taxes assessed against them
after said discharge" has ref
erence to the poll tax ASSESSED
after the discharge"
This opinion will govern
your voting in the January
primary election, and gives
YOU full right, as though you
had all poll tax receipts.

Cannot Praise this
Remedy too Highly
THE WAY ONE LADY FEELS AFTER
SUFFERING TWO YEARS

Judging from her letter, the mis-
cry and Wretchedness endured by
Mrs. Charlie Taylor, r. F. D. No. l,
Box LA, Dillon, S. c., must have
been terrible. No one, after read
ing her letter, can continue to
doubt the great healing power
Of PE-RU-NA for troubles due
to catarrh or catarrhal conditions
in any part of the body. Her
letter is an inspiration to every
sick and suffering man or woman
anywhere. Here it is: 81 suffered
two years with catarrh of the head,
stomach and bowels. Tried two Of
the best doctors, who gave me up.

bottle and twelve bottles cured me.
/ advise all sufferers to take
PE-RU-NA."
AS an emergency remedy IN the
home, there is nothing quite the
equal of this reliable, time-tried
medicine, PE-RU-NA. Thousands
place their sole dependence on it
for coughs, colds, stomach and
bowel trouble, constipation, rheu-
matism, pains in the back, side and
loins and to prevent the grip and
Spanish Flu. To keep the blood
pure and maintain bodily strength
and robustness, take PE-RU-NA.
You can buy PE-RU-NA any

School Tax r1eeting.

Friday night a most inter
esting meeting was held at
the Elks Theatre by local
friends Of Public Education
in favor Of the Special Tax
to be voted upon next Tues
day.
The audience was given a
free moving picture show BY
the School Board, after which
the real business Of the meet
ing began.
Vice-Pres. H. T. Hall called
the meeting to order and IN
most forcible words outlined
the needs and purposes Of
the special tax. He called
attention to the splendid
school facilities OF many of
our neighboring towns, and
showed how 100000 is a
small request in proportion
to the size and importance of
our own city.
Supt. L. r. Tilly followed
with a detailed statement OF
the crowded rooms and un-
sanitary conditions which
are initiating against the
progress of our schools.
Hon. Walter Burke spoke
eloquently for the cause Of
better educational equipment
for our children. He pointed
out how rapidly our school
enrolment has increased and
how we must be foresighted
enough to build now for our
needs of years to come.
Hon. P. L. Gilbeau from
the State Department of Ed
ucatlon proved by statistics
the monetary value of educa-
ton. He informed New lbe-
ria of the forward steps being
taken all around us, and {
what we must do if we are to-
keep our place among our (
neighboring towns. t
Every argument that has (

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Newton ID !
Baker, secretary of war, has issued an
order for the rehabilitation of the army
by Sept 80 to the peace time strength
of 233, 3OS officers and men authorized by
the national defense act. This brings
measurably nearer the prospect of the
President lifting the ban on liquor, which
must remain in effect until demobiiza
ton has reached point where it can be
declared completed by executive proca-
nation
The emphasis which Secretary Baker
lays on the necessity for haste III dis
charging the soldiers and officers gives
rise to the belief in many quarters here
that it will be possible for the President
to declare the army demoblized even
before Sept 30
/ In night letter which Secretary Baker
