Bullion Tax

The Tonopah Mining Company

by paying Sheriff Malley, ex-oficio.
collector, the SUI of $23.4O6.17.
This applies to arrears of taxes for
the last quarter Of 1911, the whole
of 1912 and 1918, and the COM
pany wiped out the last vestige of
an old grievance that has kept
Assessor Malley busy trying to adj
just. This week the same company
paid $4,000 on account Of 1914
taxes making a total Of $33,406
paid into Nye County during the
past six days. The question of az
rears was brought up by the state
tax commission in 1913 when it
fixed the valuation of production
at so per cent Of the actual value.
At the same time it was agreed to
abandon the practice Of including
heavy charges for transportation
and milling against the value OF the
ore. The settlement was effected
at a conference of Sheriff Malley
and Hugh Fl. Brown, attorney
representing the mining compsny.
Under the new Law the Tonopah
schools will receive 25 per cent
which would have not been the
case had the settlement been made
before Miner.
