SUSSEX FOLKS MUST PAY
Over 100 Indicted For Failure To
Pay Filing Fee And School Tax.

Determined to collect the $500 filing
fee and show to the people of Sussex
county that they cannot fagrantly vi
olate the law by absolutely refusing to
pay, Attorney General Sylvester Town
send, set the legal machinery working
last Monday, with the result, that
more than one hundred t2Xables were
indicted by the grand jury for refus-
ing to pay last years tax.
Much opposition was expressed to
the imposition of the filing fee or in
come tax, which exacted of every man
and woman in each of the three coun-
ties the sum of three dollars. Returns
have to be filed showing the amount
OF income even if the gross or net
amount was less than $1,000. Pro-
tests were made by those whose in
come did not come within the limits
where more than $1,000 was earned.
The contention was that the filing fee
tax blanks divulged too much of the
private affairs of the individuals and
moreover that all of the women were
taxed. Last year was the first time in
The history of the State that women
were taxed for school and county pur-
poses.
The opposition to the filing tax was
so stupendOus that at the last cleo
ion both Democrats and Republicans
vent on record as favoring its repeal.

A plot of ground, large enough to
supply the minister and his family

many times at an early hour of the

around him, the man of cloth" can |
be found working his garden in order
TO help give General High Cost of Liv-

Rev. Mr.. Bailey, because of his ex-
aIted position, is not too proud to don
'veralls and work like a Trojan. He
'ather delights in doing it, not only
because he is helping to supply his
