Lee street. Prohibitionists and Socialists tugged shoulder to shoulder in the interest of i improved schools, in the school room. At th elast hour a number of leading citizens who had taken but little in terest in the matter fell into the fight and rolled up a big vote for the pro- posed tax, a measure which had al ready received the endorsement of the ; town officials, school board, State of ficials and many others who realized that the time has eome for Spencer to j move forward in the matter of im i proved and enlarged school facilities, i So determined to vote for the tax j were some of the road men that they refused to go out on their runs and i remained on the yards or at the polls from 1 a. m. Tuesday morning until the voting began seven hours later. Other road men exchanged run3 in order to be here to vote, while still others caught at the other end of the road rushed home on fast trains to vote and work for the cause. Among those who worked hard for the tax were: C. L. Bunch, chairman of the school board; Postmaster W. D. Pe thel, Mayor W. H. Burton, Capt. T. J. Rosemond, Capt. S. H. Cosnej , S. F. Harris, Prof. J. E. Redfern, P. Stoud- imire, Alderman B. L. Young, C. T. Gary, Engineer Jake Crossman, and numbers of others. The judges were Messrs. J. P. Crowell and E. S. Black well with J. R. Cruse registrar. The best of feeling prevailed throughout the day. There was no great rejoicing when the final final count was made late Tuesday night. It was a glad day for Spencer. The supporter; of the school tax belong to the progressive element in the community, men who have the interest of the town and the school at heart and realize that the. best asset for Spencer is a good school. In voting the special tax, whch is the limit of the law for the purpose, Spencer has lined up with other progressive towns and cities in the state. There was of course some opposi tion to the measure for otherwise it would hardly have been an election. I One man who refused to vote for the j measure declared that he could not conscientiously assume additional ; obligations. When asked what j amount of taxes he pays he declared I with much emphasis that he pays 50 ; cents in Spencer and 50 cents to the state and county, being too old to pay poll tax. Another man who has eight children in school, which cost the town $10.48 ach last year, pays tax on nn estimated value of $800 and worked against the measure.
