A disturbing question tn Mississippi Is that of th* j*ull tax Th** great majority of thos# Its 14* for th* •x neglect to pay It.

To* present election laws were penal ly enacted wlih th* view of shutting them out from the ballot box, but It aas thought that If i • white j* op wr# lr*te. t*l against negro domination there would b* no dl*|KM*ltlon on their port to ivoid fioylig the poll tax Tho*. who held thh* view were, li -**m-. mistaken Th* number who do*lg* the tax l* so 1 irge that ad of th* papers In the *tate ar* discussing ways for enforcing Its roller, lion. If a law w*r* ena- ted making tn* pay m* n of the tax ompulaory the iaw win h practl ally relieves the negroes from pay ing it and keeps them away from the tail lot tIOX woull Ik* defeated. It look- a if . very largo portion of the white people want not only to kert* the negroes from voting but aiwo to avoid |avlng th* poll tax. The negro population of Mississippi I# v*ry large Th census will show in>te ably that it la as large as the white pop ulation. If Ihe negron* were allowed to vote therefore there would ba danger of n*gro *k*nuntlon unless rn. an- t pre vent their votes from being counted were resort**l to. The sentiment of the i |*b is sgainat h.ilkd box frau*ls. They have ha i eifOUgh of shat of thing. BuUot box corruption or violence has a bad ef fect upon the p*ople. It begins to look, however, as if a very large percentage of the people were Indifferent to the r* v problem. Primaries are now held In the state and there i- no incentive therefore o vot- a? the regular elections, and It d*a*s not re quire the loivment of the poll tax to vote ai a primary. But even If there were no primary th* j*eopl*‘ would hnrdly tak* much Interest In election* unleiw there were two white parties nearly equal In strength. Being practically only one party the people stay at home on election days, and keep the money they would hava to pav a* poll tax. The situation Is not at all satisfactory to the thinking people of lha *tat#, but they do nos seem to know how to Improve It. If It were not that the poll tax is grea ly ne*l*d for the support of th* school* It Is |rohaMe that not*ody would bother about the tax. even though the state would suffer by letting few men con trol it* affairs The .taking of the ballot from the negro virtually settled one question, but It opened another that I* almost a* serious, llow this latter question Is to be oat tied no on* appear* to know IN til.ll It .IMI.Ui MHVfVBO.
