SPECIAL EXCISE
TAX IS LEVIED
(Juneau Dispatch)
David J. Williams, collector of in
ternal revenue, at Tacoma, has for
warded the Dispatch the following let
ter in re. the act of September 8, 1916:
The act of congress of September 8,
1916, imposes a special tax effective
January 1, 1917, upon every corpora
tion having a capital stock repre
sented by shares and in business dur
ing the preceding fiscal year, July 1,
1915, to June 30, 1916. The amount of
this tax is measured by the average
fair market value (not the par value)
of the stock outstanding at the close
of the preceding fiscal year and is
computed at the annual rate of 50
cents for each even full $1,000 of such
! market value exceeding the $99,000
] which is allowed as an exemption.
As special taxes due the United
States are always reckoned upon the
government’s fiscal year, July 1 to
June 30, the rate of tax for the six
months period, January 1, 1917 to
June 30, 1917, will be 25 cents per
$1,000 of market value of stock over
$99,000. Also, as special taxes are
payable during the month in which the
liability commences, the returns for
this capital stock tax, with remittance
to cover, must, in order to avoid the
penalties for delinquency be in the
hands of the collector of internal rev
enue within the month of January,
1917, and within the month of each
July thereafter. Although the liabil
ity for this tax attaches only where
the market value of the capital stock
exceeded $99,000 by one or more even
$1,000, a return must be filed within
the prescribed time by every corpora
tion organized for profit and having a
capital stock value of $75,000 or over,
unless the corporation was not engag
ed in business during the preceding
fiscal year as above defined.
No returns of capital stock tax are
required from corporations which are
exempt from making income tax re
turns, or which have no capital stock
represented by shares, or which were
not in business during the preceding
i fiscal year.
Corporations affected by this tax
which do not, early in January, 1917,
receive blanks for returns from the
collector without application therefor,
should notify the collector at Tacoma,
Wash., and request that form 707 be
furnished them.
PROVES IT POSSIBLE TO
KEEP SECRET—FOR A TIME
(Garfield, Wash., Enterprise)
That it is possible for a woman to
keep a secret—at least for a reason
able length of time—has been recent
ly demonstrated in Garfield.
Mrs. C. H. Bentley invited a num
ber of Garfield ladies to her home for
a social time last Saturday evening.
A delightful evening was spent and
after the guests were seated for re
freshments the hostess announced to
her guests that her daughter, Lor
raine, was wedded to Max J. Kuney
at Vancouver, Washington, on the
26th day of last August. This caused
no little excitement and commotion
among the guests assembled. The
bride produced a marriage certificate
which was read by Mrs. Ralff, reveal
ed the further information that the
ceremony had been performed by the
Rev. D. W. Ellsworth of the Metho
dist church of Vancouver, in the pres
ence of Miss Edith Kuney, sister of
the groom, and H. E. Heinz, of Port
land.
The guests were also permitted a
hasty glance at a photo of the groom,
who is a civil engineer employed in
the construction of Alaskan railroad
with headquarters at Anchorage.
Owing to the severity of the north
ern winters the bride will not join
her husband until spring.
This interesting bit of romance had
its inception about two years ago, at
Newport, Oregon, when the bride was
a student in the high school at that
place, and no one in Garfield but her
parents knew of its culmination until
last Saturday. «
Mrs. Kuney has grown to woman
hood in Garfield and she has a host of
friends here who extend well wishes
Latest Incorporated Gold Mining Com
pany to Begin Operating in the
Willow Creek District—Have
Opened Office at 547 4th.
The properties of the Arrah Wanna
Gold Mining Company consist of six
claims in the W’illow Creek Mining
District, practically adjoining some of
the best paying mines in that section.
These claims contain the same charac
ter of ore and carry the same values
that the richest mines in the camp
have produced.
The location of the Arrah Wanna
properties, right in the heart of a
number of properties that are now
yielding hundreds of thousands to the
output of the Willow Creek region,
together with other natural conditions,
justifies the prediction that the prop
erties of the Arrah Wanna Gold Min
ing Company will yi the near future
become one of the largest producers
of that district now conceded to be the
biggest producer of high-grade free
milling ore in Alaska at the present
time.
It is the purpose of the Arrah Wan
na Gold Mining Company to sell only
enough stock to cover the costs and to
meet the costs of contemplated devel
opment. When funds for this purpose
shall have been subscribed the stock
will absolutely be taken off the mar
ket, as it is the intention of the com
pany to take the means necessary for
further development out of the
ground.
The Arrah Wanna Gold Mining
Company is capitalized at $200,000.00
non-assessable, of which amount $40,
000.00 only will be sold for develop
ment purposes. As noted above, as
soon as sufficient money has been ac
quired for initial development work
the stock will be taken off the market,
the only exception being that the
original purchasers will be entitled to
acquire, before the expiration of 30
days after the vein has been cut, as
much more stock as they originally
may have purchased. This insures
them deriving the benefits to which
they are entitled, as they are the
ones who will have helped to make
the mine. The stock will be delivered
to them at the same price as original
| ly sold at, regardless of what the
market value may be.
The stock to be disposed of will be
sold at 25 cents per share. For every
share of stock sold at this time an
equal amount will automatically be
placed in the treasury subject to ac
quirement by the original purchasers.
The officers of the Arrah Wanna
Gold Mining Company are as follows:
Mr. T. M. Sheehan, president; S. R.
Maclinton, Vice-President; J. P. Han
sen, Superintendent; T. S. Oliver, Sec
retary and Treasurer. Directors:
Messrs. T. S. Oliver, S. R. Maclinton,
J. P. Hansen, A. B. Cummings.
Considerable expense has been in
curred in compiling an up-to-date map
of the Willow Creek district, which
may be seen by anyone interested, on
request, at office of Arrah Wanna
Gold Mining Co., 547 4th St.

BIG GAME PLENTIFUL
IN EAST AFRICA
MOMBASSA, B. E. A., Jan. 23.—
Large game, including elephants,
rhinoceri and buffalo, are very plen
tiful in East Africa, as the war has
practically stopped the visits of hunt
ers. Reports received here state that
this is especially true of the northern
reserve, where the rhinoceri have be
come so numerous as to be a veritable
nuisance. The southern reserve has
been the scene of extensive military
bperations, and therefore game has
been used for food, but not to an ex
tent that will cause any scarcity in
future years.
