NELSON J. JONES WILL BECOME CITIZEN

Nelson J. James, of Chelsea, came in Saturday and took the first steps in becoming an American citizen. He is a Canadian and is working in the stove works at Chelsea. He has been here two years. The law at present requires a residence of five years before one can become a citizen and the candidate must declare his intentions two and a half years before he can get his full papers. But he may make his declaration immediately on entering the county, in which event he must wait the full five years before he can became a citizen or vote.
