A DOUBLE INCOME TAN

Shortly after the latest income tax
law was passed an announcement was
made from Washington that the new
tax would require a single man to
pay two per cent income tax on such
sums above $1,000 as they may earn.
This was given out as the basis Of
income tax collections for the pres
ent year. But those who caused to
be issued the explanation of the in
come tax law failed to note the fact
that the old income tax law was not
repealed by the new and that 1t Is
still in existence This will require
an additional income tax payment of
two per cent on the basis of the old
law, which exempted incomes of mar
ried men under $4,000 and Of single
men under $4,000. So that a single
man whose income exceeds $4,000
will pay four per cent on the excess
and married men whose incomes are
above $4,000 will pay four per cent
on the excess.
1t is a pretty heavy tax in a sense,
but these are war times and it Is no
use to complain If it we're just thing
to do so.

FAMOUS KLONDIKE WORKED
CLEAN

With the freezing up Of the Klon-
dixie and the closing down of the
dredges for the winter, the cream Of
the placer ground of that famous
stream is practically cleaned out. The
big dredges of the Yukon Gold Com
pany finished the seasons work by
dredging the entire. creek from end
to end and also completed dredging
Eldorado to % above discovery.
These operations take about all of
the best of the ground. The once rich
dirt is exhausted, or practically SO.
There is still some pay dirt to be
handled, but the biggest part of the
Job is completed, and part of the
dredges will be taken to other sec
tions.
Crews are now engaged in knocking
down two of the largest dredges and
they will be hauled In during the win
ter so they can be loaded and shipped
to the outside on one of the first boats
next spring. While it Is not known
where they will be sent, 1t is thought
likely that they may be taken to
Murray. Idaho, where one Of the COM
pany's dredges from here was shipped
last June. and which has just been
installed and is now working.--The
Alaska (Fairbanks) Citizen.

\ GREAT DISCOVERY?

Users of gasoline await with great
concern a report that a substitute for
gasoline has been discovered by a
German chemist in Minnesota which
promises an unlimited supply of IL
guild fuel for gasoline engines at a
nominal cost.
To add to the importance of the al
legged invention, a federal judge has
issued an order restraining the inven-
tor from selling his secret to Ger
many or to any enemy of the United
States. 1t is said that this inventor
has proposed to sell his discovery to
the United States. but that he de-
mands 100000 in cash and bonus
Of $15.000,000 a year for the re.
mainder of his life.
The story. but for the federal in
junction would be regarded as fishy
one. but that injunction appears to
be Of a serious character. and it may
be that the public will shortly be
startled by an announcement of a
great contribution to science.

SOCIALISM INDICATED

The patient work of long years has
been swept aside in a few months of
war. The socialists hour of triumph
has come. Those ideas long advocated
by the socialist party, which have
been jeered at in times of peace are
the first to be adopted when the ma
ton is in peril. Big business is being
ruthlessly swept aside and govern
ment monopoly obtains. The recon-
mendation of radical reforms by the
socialist party which we're deemed
visionary a year ago have been taken
up overnight. The United States Is
on the verge Of vast economic
change.
Almost daily the government in
vades the preserves of business and
appropriates some delectable trade
morsel for its own uses and ends, and
by the end of the war If this course
is continued the United States will
