MUST PAY AN EXTRA
TAX FOR TRAVELLING
EVERY TINE YOU BUY 4 RAIL
ROAD TICKET THE AGENT Will.
COLLECT A TAX FOR THE GOV
EisNMENT.

Application of taxes on all pas
senger and freight business under the
new war tax bill just passed by con-
gress is absorbing the attention of the
various rail and water transportation
companies Among those effected by
the law are the Central of Georgia
and the Seaboard Air Line, which
serve the people of Americas ana this
section.
Teh law, which is operative in rel
erence to transportation companies
Nov /, calls for taxes of three per
centum on all freight, eight per cent
UNI on all PASSENGER transportation,
and ten per centum of berth seats,
statehooms and vessels, and the rail-
roads will pass the new burden on
to the publis, as do all business in
iterests when they are rendered" by
1.-THE government Freight and passen-
ger traffic departments, nor the ac-
counting departments, yet have re-
, ceived any positive instructions as
to the operation of the law, but they
| are Of the opinion that the taxes are
payable in cash to the representa-
tives of the company receiving the
money on the service.
For instance, a person purchases a
ticket from the Central of Georgia
in Americas to Atlanta Upon paying
for his transportation the person
would pay also to the agent an addi-
ton of eight per centum, based on
| the price of the ticket Should ne
purchase seats or berth he would
have to pay an addition of ten per
centum on their cost to the agent,
or to the conductor, to whom he paid
the cost of them
The tax on freight is three per
centum without regard to class or
commodity, supposedly based in
freight tariff charges. The railroad
men also face difficulties in this mat
ter since there are many kinds Of
rates, many different charges and
multiplicity of services.

Have you fully realized the fact
that if you are a married man and
have an annual income of $4,000, or
if YOU are a single man and have ar
income of $1,000 you must make
detailed return to the government
under the terms of the war income
tax law as passed at the last session
of congress?
This does not mean that persons
with incomes of this size or less must
pay an income tax, for the minimum
taxable incomes start at $1,000 and
! 81, 900, but in any event the return
! must be made and Uncle Sam given
accurate information concerning ones
financial conrition.
The Unmarried Ones.
The new income tax law provides
for normal tax of 2 per cent upon
the incomes of all unmarried indivld'
uals in excess of 1000 and upon the
incomes of all married persons
or heads of families in excess of 81.
900 and graduated surtaxes ranging
! from | per cent upon taxable incomes
in excess of $4,000 to so per cent upon
such incomes in excess of $1,000 900.
! The new law also retains in effect
the income taxation authorized I'M
der the law of September s, 1916.
which provides for normal tax of 2
iper cent with exemption of $4,000
and $4,000 respectively for hnmar-
ried and married tax payers and grad
uated surtaxes ranging from / per
cent upon taxable incomes in excess
OF $4,000 to 10 per cent upon incomes
in excess of 100000
War Excess Profits.
But there is still another feature
of the income tax law which has on
liz just been brought to the close at
Itention of persons affected by the
provisions of the new statute, but
which is causing nothing less than
CONSERVATION. 1t is the little Joker
section number 209, which authorizes
an additional tax of 8 per cent on
all incomes in excess of $4,000, APP
lplying in all cases where incomes is
derived either from salaries or fro1l
the proceeds of business where no
capital is employed.
This s pc cent war excess profits
ttax" will have the effect of practical
II doubling the tax on incomes rang
ing from $4,000 upward and is caus-
ing much discussion In financial ctr
cles.
AS a concrete example of the oper-
alton of the new income tax law
take an income of $4,000 per year
derived by married taxpayer or head
o: family Under the old law there
would be no income taxation, while
under the old law a tax of 2 per cent
cent is levied on the excess of $4,000,
which in this case is $1,000, making
it necessary for the individual to pay
tax of 500
Unmarried individuals with incomes
in excess of $1,000 are subject to the
same provisions, with additional graz
uated taxes according to the amount
in excess of the stipulated $1,000 eX-
emption,

EUREM's SECOND QUOTA
DEPART FOR TRMNING CAMP
Four Eureka County Boys Leave
BY To-day's Train for Pail
SADIE on Their Way to
Camp Lewis

Our people assembled again this
morning to bid our second quota of
boys goodbye. who are:
Henry Rattazzi. Eureka.
G. A. Cardinalli, Eureka.

Joseph Tognoni, a Eureka boy who
was drawn in Nye County. went out
with them and will join the Nye
County boys en- route.
Eureka County was called on for
seven men to leave here to-day for
Camp Lewis, but owing to the inabili-
ty of the County Board to obtain ac-
ton on four Eases sent up to the
District Board at Reno. only four
men were available at this time.
The boys who have been drawn for
military service and their parents
and friends r now looking at the
better side of the situation, aud in
the parting this morning there was
a perceptible change of feeling-a
more sanguine view of life in Uncle
Sans service being manifested.
The first quota of boys report hav-
ing had good treatment since their
arrival in camp and have sent home
words Of cheer and encouragement
to those to go later. which has
wrought a wonderful change of feel
ing in heart and mind.
fhe boys left here in charge of w.
R. Reynolds. a member of the Coun-
ty Board. who will turn them over
to G. A. Cardinalli on their departure
from Palisade. and he will have
charge of them until they reach their
camp at American Lake.
Forty-two excursion tickets were
sold this morning to relatives and
friends of the boys who accompanied
them to Palisade to see them off on
the main line. The excursion train
will return to Eureka this evening.

EUREKA BOYS MAKE FAVOR
ABLE IMPRESSION EN- ROUTE
Gentleman at Portland, Oregon,
Sends the Following Regard
ing His Casual Meeting
With Them

The SENTINEL is in receipt of a let
ter that contains commendabIe men,
ton of our first seven boys while on
their journey to Camp Lewis.
Portland. Oregon, Sept. rs.
Editor Eureka SENTINEL,
Eureka. Nevada.
My Dear Sir:
No doubt you will be somewhat
startled when you receive this letter,
particularly SO when you learn it is
from a stranger. First / must tell
you who | am; then you will UNDER
stand why this letter is sent you.
Some years ago / met with an acct
dent; in consequence. lost both of
my lower limbs and now sell chewing
gum and papers for a living. Each
morning go to the Union depot with
my stock in trade and during the
course of business meet many people.
To-day about 6 a. m. / had the pleas
ure of meeting the seven young men
from your little city. representing
your quota of the present draft, who
were passing here on their way to
American Lake. | had quite a visit
with them and they told me that they
missed the sagebrush. Their con-
~versation with me was so clean and
they acted such gentlemen-each one
bought either gum or a paper from
me, and gave me rs cents each. This
is going some, as it is very unusual,
so / will mention it, as these boys are
worth while.
The people of your city should feel
very proud of them, especially SO
when they are on their way to assist
in making this world one of demo-
cracy, and at the same time scatter
ing seeds of kindness while en- route.
This letter speaks for itself. If
your people of Eureka are to be
judged by the seven boys that | met,
then you are all happy and have a
little world of your own. / regret
that | did not learn their names be-
fore they left. Thanking you, / am,
sincerely,
THoS. F. TUBB.
