In North Carolina the people are going to have an extra turn .at it, for w.e are to have this year for the first time the legalized Stat-wide primary, the voters .in all parties being granted the I'ight by lav-i to name the men whom they would have for party candidates. But there is this prerequiste to voting in North Carolina: Your poll tax must have been paid on or before the first day or iviay. If it ie not paid before the first of May passes then.ihcre will be no voting for you in the primaries or in the general election this year. And the fault will lay at the door of the individual voter who by his inattention dis- francheises himself. This is an imporiant year for the country. Throughout tho land there are county officers te be nominated.and elected In the various States there are Governor and other State officials to be elected. In the nation we are to elect a President.
