Poll Tax Must BE Paid.

People must pay their poll tax
as well as their property tax, and
the sheriff of any county can force
them to pay il. This is the
important ruling made by
Attorney General Kinsworthy, as
shown IN the following:
OFFICE OF ATTORNEY GExEEALl
LITTLE Rock, ARK.
Mr. o. X. Mcdaniel. Prescott. Ark
DEAR SIR-YOurs concerning
poll tax received. II is just as
much the duty Of each person to
pay his poll tax as it is to pay any
other tax, and il he does not do it,
il is the duty Of the sheriff to make
him do it. This tax is not a
privilege but a duty. Governor
Clarke says he never gave such
an opinion as expressed IN your
letter. II he did. il is not the law.
Tell your sheriff it is his duty to
collect the poll tax. Yours truly,
Il. B. KINswoRTHY,
Attorney General.
