Banner Year for Steel.

Steel companies closed the year with
the largest equities in their history, and
they will be in even a more powerful
financial position before the close of the
first half of this year, according to ad-
vices from New York inanciers. All of
the steel companies are issuing remark
able statements of earnings.
United States Steel reported a surplus
available for dividends on common stock
last year OF s4S.50 a share, and earnings
in the last quarter were at the rate of
s66.4S a share.
Republic Steel is expected to show s45
earned for its common stock last year,
and it is understood that earnings In the
last quarter were at the rate of SIS a
share
Inland Steel reported a surplus ap-
pncaole to dividends of slO5.29 a share in
1915 and is said to be now earning at
the rate Of more than s125 a share.
Mtdvale reported a surplus equal to
sl6.0S a share last year. but last quarters
earnings were at the rate of SIC. so a share
annually
Bethlehem Steel headed the list with a
surplus applicable to dividends on COM
mon stock for 1915 of more than s2S6 a
share.
Lackawanna Steel. it is estimated.
earned more than $35 share for its
stock in 1916.
Pittsburgh Steel. Eastern Steel, and
other steel companies will report in
creases proportionately as large as the
above, and it would appear that even
larger dividends than are now being
paid are in order
The receipt of the German note warn
ing this country of the Kaiser's intention
to prosecute a ruthless sea warfare is
expected further to boom the steel
market.

CBy the International News serviceo
New York, Jan. 31.-In spite Of the good
statement OF earnings made by the
United States Steel corporation, the stock
market was heavy all Of today and Steel
was the heaviest Of all. That stock which
all professionals expected would open at
least two points higher, rose less than
point Nobody seemed to want 1t and
the result was that heavy selling was
INDUCED in. 1t broke a point, rallied and
in the late trading declined to lis, which
is a full point below yesterday.
Nearly all issues sympathized with steel
and the motors in particular were weak.
Utah Copper was the only stock to
distinguish itself by advancing mate
rally.
BethIem Steel attracted selling by SELL
ing down below the lowest price recorded
in the recent break. At the same time
the new stock known as Bethlehem B.,
broke 61-4 points to 123 Midvale de-
clined along with 1t selling down to 56 3-4.
Wall Street in general believes that all
parties in the war are in great distress
and would gladly make peace II
they could do so with honor" Some
important operators are acting on the
theory that a way will be found and
that right speedily.

 Lonoke Court House Jan 2 to Is, 1918

In communication received by this paper Collector of Inter nal Revenue, Jack Walker, an nounced that a federal income tax officer will be sent to this county on Jan. ?, and will be hnre until Jan. 16. He will have lis ctfice in Court House Build ing in Lonoke, and will be there every day ready and willing to help persons subject to the in come tax make out their returns without any cost to them for his services.
 How many income tax payers will there be Tn Lonoke county? If you can guess how many mar ried persons living with wife or husband will have net incomes of s, ,000 or oyer and how many un married persons will have net in- comes of S1, ,000or over this year. then you know. The Collector of Internal Revenue estimates that there will be 933 taxpayers in this county.
 Returns of income for the year 1917 must be made on forms provided for the purpose before March 1, 1918. Because a good many people don't understand the law and won't know how to make out their returns, the Gov ernment is sending in this ex- pert to do it for them. But the duty is on the taxpayer to make

Miss Haviland To Read

Miss Flora Marie Haviland, reader, interpreter of plays and life sketches will appear at the High School Auditorium Friday evening at 8:15 in the third mum Der of the Lyceum course Miss Haviland' repertoire is extreme " varied. including scenes from Shakespeare, sketches from life in dialect and arrangements from popular authors. To those who wish to be entertained with choice readings and to the stu dent of public reading who wants to learn more about his art. Miss Havilard will be an assured treat. The press has been very liberal in it's praise of her work and she comes to us highly rec commended by those who really know her work.
 Owing to the nature of the en- tertainment, it has been decided not to sell reserved seats but to admit by season tickets present. ed at the doors which will be open at 7:45. Single admission can be secured at the door for 9 and 35 cents. Let us have a large safe of admissions at the door in order that our Lyceum course may pay for itself with the con clusion of this number if possi- ble.

himself known to the Govern ment. If he doesn't make return as required before March 1, he may have to pay penalty rang ing from $20 to $1 ,000, pay a fiue or go to jail. So if you don't want to take chances on going to jail, you better call on the income tax man. If you are not sure about being subject to the tax, better ask him and make sure. Whether you see the income tax man or not you must make your return if subject to tax.
 Of course, persons resident in other counties may, if they want to, come and see the income tax man who will be at Lonoke.
 The Collector suggests that everybody start figuring up his income and expenses now so as to be ready with the figures when the expert arrives. Ex- penses, however, don't mean family expenses. money used to pay off the principal of a debt, new machinery, buildings, or anything like that. They mean what you spend in making your money, interest. taxes pad, hired help, amount paid for goods sold, seed, stock bought for feed ing, rent (except for your dwell ing) etc. Income includes about every dollar you get.
