Sisk Is Reinstated on Tax Equalization Board After Hearing Proved to Court’s Satisfaction That He Is a FreeHolder—Began His Work with Board on Monday G. W. Sisk, whose place on the board of county tax equalizers was declared vacant by the hoard of coun ty commissioners, took the matter to superior court, aud in the hearing be fore Judge Tarver Saturday, he was re-instated as a member of the board, entering upon the work of the board when that body met Monday. The county commissioners, in look ing over Air. Sisk’s tax returns, failed to find where he had returned any real estate, and held that he was not a free-bolder, and. consequently was dis qualified for service.' Air. Sisk main tained that he was a free-bolder; but the hoard would not go further into the matter. In the hearing before Judge Tarver, he showed to the satisfaction of the court that he was a free-holder, as he l)roved part ownership in a farm all of which his son gave in for taxation, and that, as part owner, he paid part of the taxes on the farm. The board of county commissioners has no right to remove a member of the board, that body’s power being limited to electing persons to fill va cancies on the board. In order for a man to be removed, it is necessary that as many as ten land owners sign a petition seeking to remove a man from the hoard, the matter to be heard in superior court.
