The republicans are send ing it broad cast that they had'no idea of of helping to pay poll tax of delinquents till they caught the demo crats doing so a few minutes belore midnight of the last day. They immediately pro reeded to pay. as many as did thedemocrats. Their an nouncetnent bears the marks of falsehood cn its face. How could thev raise .f80() cush with most everybody in bed and select 124 delinquent re publicans with the tax books in the Sheriff's hands, all in less than five minutes. The fact is they have been, plan ningthe thing and raising mon.y for o month and it mude 'em "bilin" to find that the "fooj" democrats had caugnt on and was a few min utes ahead. We are not fa vorable to any such proced ure by any party, but it does not help matters any for the rads to put on their long hy pociitical faces ond lie about it.

A U'ashington correspond ent to the Churlotte Observ er says: "If the opinion of a gentle man who has a responsible position here, and is a close student of law, is correct there is yet a chance for ma ny voters in the Htate who imnuine themselves disfran chised, to retain their right to register . and vote. This gentleman says he bus just received a letter from a gen tleman in Tredell county in which he asks him if there is any way for him to vote, now that the first of May has passed, if he can show conclu sively that he is a proper sub ject for exemption by the county commissioners on ac count of poverty and inflrmi ty. According to this stu- dent of the law neither the a mendment to the constitu tion nor the election law say that this release or exemp tion by the board of eommis sioners shall have been order ed or dated on or before the first day of May. It- would seem that if this is true the seveial boa ids of commission ers in those counties where the vjters have failed to pay in such large numbers may yet be called upon to try and determine many moreappli cations of . those who claim to come under the head of poor and infirm." The sudden death of three democratic members of th House of Representatives ear ly lust week, Messrs. Ote.y, Cummings and Salmon, seem ed about to be followed by another on last Friday when Mr. Smith, nt the conclusion of a speech fell senseless to the floor with a slight stroke of apoplexy. Mr. Smith soon recoyered from the stroke and is now considered out of danger. SCIATIC RA.EUMAT1HM CURED. "I have bpn afflicted with sciatic iheumatism for four teen yeats," says.

For many yens past the law of this State has requir ed the county commissioners in drawing jurors, in draw ing jurors, "to select the names ol such persona ouly as have puid tax for the pre ceding year." That is, men are not eligible are disfran chised to serve as jurors who have not paid their tax. We haye never heard any bodj complain of this law, nor has any political party ever attempted to repeal it. Now if this law is all right, and nobody complains of it. whj would there be any com plaint against the law requir ing the payment of poll tax as a prerequisite t j Voting? If a man is required to pay his poll' tax before he can serv as n juror, why should he not pay his tax before he can vote? It the payment ot tax is required before n man can be a juror in tr.yingsome petty case, why should not the payment of a tax be re quired before a man can ex ercis the greatest privilege of a freeman in Voting for the officers who govern us? Had you thought of this? And it. is all a mistake to say the law disfranchises a man because be does not pay his tax. 'lhe law does not disfranchise him but be dis franchises himself us a juror Sy not paying his tax. The la w requires a voter to register before voting, und if a man is deprived of voting because he fails to registe, he disfranchises himself just as he does if he fails to pay his poll tax, and that is all there is m this so-called disfranchi sing of voters.
