we get good citizens to locate on
these farms and put them in cult
walton, or if we get good citizens to
move to this parish and locate in
the country we will be compelled to
give them better educational facli-
ties for their children in the coun-
try.
The farmers of this parish have
it in their power, as they are in the
majority, to get what they want in
the way of educational facilities for
their children. They can elect any
kind of school board they desire
to elect, because they have the ma
jority of the votes, End If they do
not get proper educational facilities
for their children they will have no
one to blame but themselves.
The suggestions We have offered
in these articles have been made fol
the sole purpose of trying to ad
vance the material interests Of thu
parish and to make the people more
prosperous. The only way ] can SCI
to make this parish prosperous is t.
cut up these large plantations, which
J are no longer profitable owing to tn
scarcity and inef6ciency OF the La
Dor that we have to work them, ant
! settle them with good small farmers
/ whose families can do their owl
work, and one Of the most essentis
) things to promote the settling up o
these plantations with good farm
ers is to give the people who settl
E on these farms, good church an
d school facilities for their families.

For SeVeral weeks past inc USzetso
has contained articles on the subject
of poll tax, in which we have en-
deavored to stress the need Of every
man and woman in the parish paying
the 1922 poll tax before the year
is gone. We have recited, in words
as simple and clear as we could use,
the law governing suffrage require
ment; we have told the people that
the law requires the payment Of poll
tax within the year due for two
years before year in which election
is held; we have said that failure
to pay poll tax for any year, be-
fore end of the year, in Louisiana
DISTINGUISHES the voter for two years;
we have told how the year 1924
win be a big election year, when
every office from president to con-
stable will be filled by election, and
that unless the 1922 poll tax is paid
before end Of present year the voter
will become disfranchised and will
not be able to participate in the
elections of that year. In short, the
