Tax registration proposal aims to curb illegal voting in Georgia
Senator Frank Rice of Atlanta plans a bill to use tax records as the registration list in Fulton County. Citizens who pay taxes would have their names entered, making their tax receipt a voting ticket. He predicts a summer session passage, claiming it will defeat impostor registrations and stop illegal voting. He cites Sumter County as already operating this system. The Albany News and Quitman Free Press urge reforms and party nominations to curb corruption and maintain Democratic unity.

Educating the Negro South’s Education Effort Cited by Haygood
Rev. Dr. Atticus G. Haygood prepared for Harper's Monthly a reply to Northern charges that the South neglects black education. He cites Alabama’s $3.5 million since 1870 and Georgia’s single year near $150,000, totaling about $5.58 million for Georgia in seventeen years, asserting the South spends more on educating blacks than any other region. Virginia exceeds $4 million, supporting the claim that the South leads in education and enlightenment of the people.
