mary, according to County At-

There were 3500 poll taxes is-
sued and 3823 votes cast.
In Lamar county 7391 poll
taxes were paid and 8,148 bal-
lots counted. Exemption cer-
tificates ,were issued to some,
but it is believed many voted
without a poll tax receipt.
Figures of other years show
less votes than poll taxes issued.
