ington closed his address at the fair
grounds. An audience of 1000 or

Who Are Taxpayers.

The president of the board of super
visors of Neshoba county asks Attor-
ney-General Fletcher for construction
OF the torn taxpayer" as used in sec
tion 3541 of the code, viz: Whether
the term applies to persons paying
taxes on property only, or whether it
applies to payers of road and poll tax.
In his answering opinion the attor-
ney-general says: ''This Office has here
tofore held that the term taxpayer, as
used in section 1881, has reference to
persons who pay property tax. and
does not include individuals paying
only poll tax or Communication poll tax.
reaffirm that holding, since it is man
ifest that the question must depend
upon the will of the persons who will
be thereby affected by the imposition
of the taxes. 1t is clear that persons
without property would not in any way
be interested in the question whether
or not special school tax should be
levied, since they would not be required
to pay any part of the levy"
