Frazer, Tax Collector of Mueoogtt County, Columbut, Oa.: Drar Sir—In reply to your letter of 12th last., I beg to any, to entitle e citizen to vote, amongst other qualifications, he “ehall have paid all tazes which may have been required ot him, and which he may have had an opportunity ot paying, agreeable to lew, for the year preceding the election." This ia the language ot the Constitu tion ot tbs State, cud, I think, includes the payment of ell tax, both tax on prop erty aa well as the poll tax... “All lax,” 1 think, means tax of whatever character. Certainly the payment of one kind ia aa important aa the paymant of tha other. As to yonr cost for Issuing executions, you are gptitled to SO per cent, on each fl f*., and oitixens eaaoot, by buying the fl fa., leas the costa, piece themselves in condition to vote. Having failed to psy tax (after an opportunity has been offer ed), end an exeention issued to enforee payment, then the oost of issuing, which the law allows, becomes a part of the fl fa, and ia ao recited in the same, and all, both principal and cost, most be paid be fore the fl fa, can be settled; and until the fl fa. ia aetUad in full, tha party oannot vote.
