Tax Collector Holland Was Active in Bringing Importance of Mat
 ter to Attention of His Fellow Citizens.

James McMillan. clerk or the state Treasury Department. declares that Escambia County promises to be the banner county in Alabama so far as pay ment of poll taxes by its citizens IS con- cerned. Mfr. McMillan has recently re- turned from a visit to Brewton, his home, and he declares that every man Tn Escambia County has paid his poll tax.
 "The practical unanimity with which ciizens of Escambia County have paid their poll taxes is due in large meas ure to the energy and pubic spiritedness of Tax Collector Holland" said MT. Mo- Milan yesterday. There are sixty-three school and township trustees in Escam- bia County and Mir. Holland deputized each of them as a collector. At his own expense he provided these trustees with stub books and made personal ap- peal to them to see every man in their township. Then MT. Holland, at his own expense, had circulars printed in which he called attention to the fact that citi- zens would disfranchise themselves un- less they paid the poll tax. He also em- phasized the point that he received no fee for its collection and that 1t was not compulsory. This action on the part of Escambia's collector had the desired effect. Every voter in Escambia has paid his poll tax and MT. Holland deserves the thanks of his fellow citizens for his patriotism,n
