Assurances have been received

STEVE RRoDIE NEVER TOOK
a SPILL LIKE THIS

The following item was taken
from the Spokane Chronicle of
Monday evening. Hill seems to
be unknown here, inquiry failing
to reveal anyone who is ac-
quainted with him:
Policemen are a suspicious lot
anyway, and they are used to TAX
ing explanations with a grain or
two of salt. But when a man
maintains he got his forehead
cut, his nose barked, and the
back of his head bumped and
scraped all in one fall on the
sidewalk, and he seems perfectly
sober at that-well, a cop cant
be blamed much for being suspi-
cious.

IMPOSSIBLE TO BEAT
INCOME TAX LAW

Somebody is going to tell on
you if you don't pay your income
tax. Congress has fixed it so that
somebody must tell, whether he
wants to or not.
One section of the War IcOme
Tax Law, exhaustively compre-
hensive in scope, requires every
person, without exception, and
every corporation, partnership,
association, and insurance com
pany, in whatever capacity act

fother person, corporation, part
Inership, association, or insur-
ance company, as interest, rent,
salaries, wages, premiums, an
Inuities, compensation, remuner-
alton, emoluments, or other fixed
OF determinable gains, profits,
and income, to report the name
and address Of the person, cor
lporation, etc, to whom the pay
ment was made, together with
the amount Of the payment, to
the Commissioner Of Internal
Revenue at Washington, using a
form prescribed for the purpose

companies have already paid
their tax into the department.
The State Farmers Mutual Hail
Insurance company paid s29.23
tax and the Western Union Life
Insurance company paid the sum
of S2,66i.46. Is addition to pay
ing the tax each company is re-
quired to pay a fee for filing its
report and another for its an.
nual license. These fees are also
in addition to the agents licenses
which are required for each agent
who represents the companies in
the state. These taxes and fees
for the year 1917 amounted to
the sum Of S12i,745.83.
The revenue realized by the
state through the insurance de-
partment has been increasing on
an average Of about $4,000 each
year. This amount will be very
materially increased for the year
1913 on account of the premium

WOULD INVEST STATES
MONEY FOR PEOPLE

Investment of state insurance
funds to the amount of $4,000
in Idaho securities through the
purchase of mortgages on Idaho
farm lands, was proposed today
by State Insurance Manager
BroXon to the land board. These
funds represent moneys which
will be set aside to maintain long
time claims for injuries such as
death claims, permanent total
disability and the like which ex-
tends over a number of years and
are invested now so that employ
ers may receive the benefit Of
the interest.
The amount available for in
vestment,' said Manager Broxon,
discussing the matter, I'm Idaho
lis not nearly so large as it was
expected it would be on account
.of the ruling which has sent so
large a portion of it to eastern
centers to be invested there, but
still it is hoped that the interest
to be received from the invest
ments made will pay a major
portion of the cost of conducting
the affairs of the state insurance
fund and thereby still further re
duce the cost of insurance to thu
