THrE POLLnrTAx.-Tho county audi
tor has been for some days engaged
in revising the list of persons liable
to a poll tax. A large number of
people have horetofore evaded the
law, and thus a considerable sum has
been lost to the county. It is
the purpose of the pros
ent auditor to enforce' the collection
of this tax, not only for the present
year, but for past years. It is with
this view that he is now preparing
a complete and accurate list of all
those liable. The lawv will be rigidly
enforced. The proceeds of the poll
tax go to the schools.
