AN IMPORTANT QUESTION
Poll Tax Can be Lefally Paid on
Sunday.
Austin, Tex., Jan. 12 —An impor
tant question has been asked the
Attorney General with reference to
the payment of poll tax on Sunday.
it happens this year, an flection
year for all officers from President
flown, that the last day of qualify
ing to vote In Texas falls an Sun
day, Jan. 31, the law being that all
poll taxes must be paid before Feb. 1.
The question asked the Attorney
General is whether a poll tax re
ceipt ifiven on said last day. Sun
day, Is valid and will be accepted
by the election judges.
Judge T. S. Johnson, Office As
sistant Attorney General, who has
been in charge of all matters per
taining to the election law and qual
ifications, has written an opinion
ndvising th»* inquirer that poll tax*·* ,
?an be legally paid on Sunday.
In this connection he qnotes from
several authorities, the principal 1
une being the opinion of the supreme 1
court in the cas»» of B^eharn vs.
Ohio, 75 Texa* Imports, page H7, an ,
extract from which read*: "Con- (
iracts mad·· upon Sunday when not
made in course of business prohib
ited upon that d.*v by statutory law ,
are valid."
η " aay· m»· «iaiui«s au mu pro
hibit the payment of poll tax ι>α ;
Sunday, therefore its payment it· !
talid The next question is, will )
the tax collector· of many counties ι
>pen their offices on Sunday, Jan t
it, as in nearly every case of the j
ilnd, people will wait until the last
ninute and then make a rush.
i¥ill No! Open on Sunday.
The above special was sent out ;
rotn Austin yesterday to the nioru
Okf papers of Texas. When it was
ihown to Tax Collector HraUvier
hie mornia* by the reporter for this
taper, Mr. Bratciier said:
"If every man in Kllis count} | '
who fias not paid hi» poll t,»x wait» : '
mill the last minute I will not open
ny otfioe on Sunday. Aside from
he fart that it is not morally rltfht
ο w.>rk on Sunday, the people have
ad froni October 1 to attend to tin»
natter and those who have not paid ί
h»ir tax muet do no before the!
