SPENCE WANTS TO
Be A VOTER IN
TROY
Does Not Wish To Be Made a
Citizen Of Bennington
REFUSES TO PAY A POLL TAX
Case Involving Fine Point Of Law
Heard Yesterday at Office Of
Bennett s. Graves.

There was an interesting suit heard
yesterday afternoon at the office OF
Bennett a. Graves brought about by the
attempt OF Collector Il. j Hall 10 collect
a poll tax OF Arthur Spence, a cutter
employed at the Bottum a. Torrance
collar shop. Three suits were brought
one TO collect the town tax, one the VII.
lage aud one the graded school. Only
the first suit was brought up, that for
the town tax.
Collector Hall maintained that
Spence should pay a poll tax for the
reason that he was n resident OF Ben
nington and was taxable. lie cited
the facts that Spence had been a resi-.
dent OF the town for Ave years and had
been steadily employed here. William
l.. Gokny lister In 1895. testified that
Spence had signed n tax list that year.
The young man has also been n mem.
Der OF Company X. Vermont National
Guard. aud Is also a member OF Stark
Lodge /. o. o. =.
The defence maintained In behalf OF
Spence that he was a resident OF Troy
aud that he had always voted In that
city. Il developed az the hearing
that Spence has no inclination 10 avoid
paying his tax. provided that by 30 do.
ing he does not lose bis voting resi-.
dence In Troy. His family interests
are In that city and he desires to main.
tain his citizenship there.
The case involves a delicate point
OF law as 10 whether a man may make
his residence wherever he sees ft re-
gardless OF the fact that he may be
living IN some other community.
Spence has refused 10 pay n poll tar In
bennington for the reason that be
fears this act will make him a citizen
OF Bennington and deprive him OF n
/ freeman's rights In the city OF Troy.
The money involved In the suit Is
not taken into consideration by the de.
fence. for 90 contest the three suits
viii cost Spence many times the
amount Of the tax.
The case was tried before Justice
Edmund lafranchlse and was not com.
pleted. II may come up again on Fri.
day, n agreeable 10 counsel.
