AX IMPORTANT DECISION.
(Laurensville Herald.) j
Payment of all taxes within the i
. dates prescribed by law, or between
r October 15 and December 31, is pre- |
requisite to voting in any legal''election.
after December 31, this being a
recent decision of the State Supreme
court. |
The decision was made in a case
appealed from Chester, it being shown!
that last January a portion of that
county attempted to annex itself to
York county. The Chester board of
canvassers declared that ninety-seven
vctes were illegal because the voters
BH^had not paid thir taxes before DecemSI.
The case was appealed to
State Board, the Circuit Court
r?T?fi finallv to the Supreme Court, the
r decision being affirmed in every instance.
It seems that this -decision would
have considerable effect on the number
of voters participating in any
- ? election during the first six months e;
the yar as many of us wait until after
Christmas to pay our taxes.
But whatever our custom has been,
i cither in ..paying taxes or conducting
i elections, a decision has been made
by-a court that has the supreme
' 'power to decide, and the decision
must hereafter be observed.
