START ASSESSING FOR
NEW STATE POLL TAX
Seek Those Eligible For Five Dollar
Jury List

The work of covering the Lynden
district to find those who must pay
the state poll tax of five dollars, was
started this week, and is well on the
way to conclusion. Assessors are also
gathering the names of those quail
flied for jury duty, in order to set
new county jury list.
The following is the summary of
the poll-taX law;
Section one fixes the age of those
who must pay the $5 poll tax at 9 to
! SO years. The only ones between
these ages who are exempt are idiots,
insane persons and persons supported
at public expense. The common be-
i lief that foreigners do not have to
pay is wrong. The money is due
May l.
Section two provides that the coun-
ty assessor at the time of the asscss-
ment and listing of personal property
must list all persons liable for poll
tax and furnish this list to the cOun-
ty treasurer on or before April so. In
addition the industrial insurance de-
partment will furnish the treasurer
with a list of all employers whose
names appear upon the commissions
records as contributors to the acci-
dent or other funds of the depart
ment
In section three are found the
teeth" of the act. 1t requires that
every employer of labor shall require
satisfactory proof of every employe
after May l that his or her poll tax
has been paid, and if it has not, the
employer must deduct from the wag
es being paid the amount OF the tax
and turn it over to the treasurer.
This feature makes it very important
that every one who pays the tax keep
his receipt carefully, for a change to
another town or another position may
mean the payment of another tax il
the receipt cannot be shown.
If the tax has not been paid by
June 1, says section four, the sheriff
of the county must seize some proper
ty sufficient to pay the costs of the
seizure and the poll tax. He may
take any property owned by the in
dividual.
Section five provides that $4 of the
tax be sent to the state treasurer
and the remaining 81 turned over to
the county's current expense fund.
Section seven says: Before any
person serving as juror or as
witness in criminal or states cases
shall receive the compensation to
which he is entitled for his mileage
and per diem, he shall exhibit to the
clerk of the court and county auditor
receipt or other evidence of pay
ment for the poll tax or taxes due by
him, and upon failure to produce the
receipt or other evidence of payment
the clerk of the court issuing the
warrant for mileage and per diem
| shall issue a warrant for the amount
| due such witness less the poll tax
! due y"
! It's up to the taxpayer to make the
payment of his poll taxes. These
may be paid in person or by mail to
+ the county treasurer. No notices will
be sent out before May / but a no
tice will be sent all delinquents be-
fore any seizure of property is made.

WINDSOR HOMES
ARE RAIDED BY
BOOTLEGCERS
Difficulty of Getting Stock for Rum
Runners at Detroit Drives
Them to Burglary

Windsor. Ont, May 2O.-Bootleg-
gers who have been supplying rum
runners in Detroit with whiskey have
been so hard pressed since the law
against the Importation of liquor from
Quebec went into effect that they have
resorted TO organized raids on liquor
stocks in private homes here, the po-
lice declared 1t is said the entire
force would be used in running down
the raiders. Scores of homes have
been broken into within the past two
weeks and large stocks OF liquor
hauled away in automobiles. On the
west side families have formed neigh
borhood patrols to protect their
liquors Another cause for liquor
thefts is the suspension, effective to-
day, of five prohibition agents at De
troit in accordance with orders of
prohibition officers. AS a result rum
runners anticipate less difficulty in
crossing the border.

UNMARRIED BY PL0W's TOUCH
Rolling Plains Scene Of Great Beauty
Before the Advent of the
Agriculturist.


Seventy years ago -. Indians were
Indians, and the plains were the plains
indeed.
Those plains stretched out in limit
less rolling swells of prairie until they
met the blue sky that on every hand
bent down to touch them. In spring
brightly green, and spangled with wild
flowers, by midsummer this prairie
had grown sere and yellow. Clumps
of dark-green cottonwoods marked the
courses of the infreQuent streams
for most of the year the only note of
color in the landscape, except the bril-
liant sky. On the wide, level river
bottoms, sheltered by the enclosing
hills, the Indians pitched their conical
skin lodges and lived their simple
lives. If the camp were large the
lodges stood in wide circle, but II
only few families were together, they
were scattered along the stream.
In the spring and early summer the
rivers, swollen by the melting SHOWS,
were often deep and rapid, but little
later they shrank to few narrow
trickles running over bed Of sand.
and sometimes the water sank wholly
out of sight George Bird Grinnell.
