INCOME TAX

1t is more than probable that
State of Nevada at the incoming
of the legislature will see an
income tax law ON its books. The
talk is in the air and the fact that
the law is working in other states
will be the incentive to bring in
revenue to the treasury. aa.
Between the inheritance and
income tax in Utah, the treasury
is being kept pretty fat. It has
enabled that state to improve
every state holding, has filled a
treasury and more is in sight. The
following is but one item of many
that have appeared in Utah paper
along this line: -acl
Cheeks from estates in Hart
ford, Conn.,, and Bos on, Mass,
aggregating s6.126,85 were re-
ceived this morning at the office of
Attorney General Barnes.
Zone check was from the Renzie
B. Parker estate of Hartford and
amounts to $3.50, assessed on 200
shares of Union Pacific preferred
stock and 100 shares Of Union
/ Pacific common stock.
"Tbe other is for SIS. 1855,
assessed for 533 shares of Union
Pacific common stock and 305
shares of Union Pacific preferred
stock" .'
Several attorneys are working
on such a law for Nevada. The
constitution of this state varies
somewhat from that of Utah hut
plans to overcome this difficulty
are under way and it is safe to
predict that both the income and
inheritance tax will be part of
the winters program.
Too many big estates have
es capped; too much money has been
made bv a few and the division of
millions is about to be made.
Truly socialism is working its wav
into the heart of the old parties
and the people. 1t is hard
admission on the part of many.
but the reality and not the shadow
is here and both6f the above laws
are called for during the past
twenty years. II will be here this

body was in four collins, one OF lead
