$40, 296.25 collected from the state high

the year ending December 81.
This mount represents 80 per cent
of the total tax collected as ten per cent
is retained by the state to cover cost of
collecting the tax.
Opposition to this system is growing
daily in Ardmore and Carter county, and
one prominent business man stated on
Saturday that he was going to make u

everything he could toward getting q
bill passed whereby the entire tax.

is collected. and do anything possible TO
assist T. J. Pollock. representative-elect
from this county, who says he will spon-
sor such n bill.
Mr.. Pollock stated shortly after cleo

n bill passed, will surely introduce the
measure. He believes the ten per cent

ment is too much and should be reduc
ed to the mere cost Of tags and salary
for one or two men to keep account OF
the number to prevent confusion in each
county.
The number Of employees necessary to
collect the tax under the present system
he thinks is in direct opposition to the
principals Of economy. and says under
his proposed bill the tax would be col
lccted the same as other taxes and the
state paid for the tags used.
