The alarm that affected this community

II has been argued that reopening
of the plant would be proof that no
deal has been made or is contemplated
with the Guggenheim interests We
do not so regard it. In fact. we are
confident that if such a deal is consum-
mated, it viii include the transfer of
the smelter. However the rate on ore
and concentrate to Northport is the
same as the rate to East Helena.
while the bullion rate is the same from
both plants. Thus. the Guggenheim
interests could operate the Northport
plant to advantage, especially as the
East Helena plant is more or less OBJ
solete and can not be compared in eff
cinecy with the Northport plant
Again, NorthpOrt would be in position
to bid for SLOGAN ores. especially if the
tariff upon incoming lead of Canadian /
origin should be lifted. The result of /
the recent election in the Dominion /
suggests that such a change may be
made. As matter of fact the losses
sustained by the Days in their smelt-
ng enterprises have been caused in
greatest measure by heavy expense at

ABILITIES of the Guggenheims available
here is no reason why Northport

far as the average newspaper is con-
cerned. But the cream of word paint
ers, the phrase makers the lions of
photography and the diplomatic ex-

something stupendous about the hap

IMPORTANT CHANGES IN
THE INCOME TAX LAW
IDAHO COLLECTOR CALLS TIMELY
ATTENTION OF PUBLIC
TO THEM.

Evan Evans collector of interna
revenue for Idaho, has issued a circular
calling attention to changes in the rev
enue Law, from which the following is
taken:
ITO avoid error in the preparation
of their returns and later difficulties
with the bureau of internal revenue,
taxpayers are advised to carefully note
the changes and when they become
effective.
"The excess profits tax is repealed
as of January 1. 1922. The rates for
1921 are unchanged
THE surtax rates for the calendar
year of 1921 are unchanged, and range
from 1 per cent on the amount of net
income between $4,000 and $4,000 to 6
per cent on the amount of net income
in excess of $1.OOO.OOO For the calen-
dar year 1922 the surtax rate, l per
cent on the amount of net income be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 to so per cent
on the amount by which the net income
exceeds $1,000
Increased Exemption.
THE exemption allowed for a de-
pendent is increased from 5000 to S4OO
Married persons living with husband
or wife and heads of families are al
lowed a personal exemption of $4,000
dnstead of $4,000 unless the net in
come is in excess of $4,000, in which
case the personal exemption is only
$4,000. The act provides that in no
case shall the reduction of the personal
exemption from $4,000 to $4,000 operate
to increase the tax which would be
payable if the exemption were $4,000 by
more than the amount OF the net in
come in excess of $4,000. This is to
overcome the disparity in the case of |
two taxpayers, one of whom is just |
within the lower $4,000 exemption and
the other just within the higher 81
500 exemption.
Single persons, and married per-
sons not living with husband or wife,
ire allowed an exemption of $1,000
aliens are allowed a sin
gle personal exemption of $1,000 Per-
ions having gross incomes for 1921 of
5000 or over are required to make
eturn, regardless of the amount of net
ncome."

WISCONSIN ZINC.

OUTLOOK IS better-big Flant TO manu-
faeture Zinc Shingles.
Offerings on zinc ore increased sub
stantially in the Wisconsin zinc dis
trict during November the base price
for seq blende going to see per ton;
sales were made which brought the
price on premium grade to a point
close to SS1. Compared with the quo
tatiOns obtained in the o-Kans- Okla
districts Wisconsin prices were far
ahead. the difference in price arising
from the advantage enjoyed by Wis
consin producers in nearness to the
zinc shelters of the Illinois coal fields
and the lower freight rates. Develop
ments during the month are signifi-
cant. The Illinois Zinc company, down
for the better part of the current cal
endar year, has heated up its big works
ready for operation. This means that
this concern will be in the field for
high grade blende. The Mathiesen &

For the three months ended on Oc-

over expenditures was S192,4S4 This
is comparable with the receipts Of

San Francisco Assay.

A few weeks ago A. ID. BurrOw, a
practical miner long a resident of this
district who is one of the incorpora-
tors of the Macedonia Mining COM
pany visited the Slate creek property
in company with Mr.. Mundell for the
purpose of personally examining the
ledge and securing samples to be test
pies Mr.. Burrow proceeded to Califor-
MIA and is now in San Francisco In
a recent letter to Mr.. Mundell he in
closed a certificate of assay of one of
his samples. an average of 6 feet across
the vein in the face of the drift, show
ing OOS ounces platinum. represent
ing a value of about $3.50 at the pres
ent price of the metal The assay was
made by the S. b. Gracier Company
Inc. 400 Montgomery street, San Fran
cisco. This at least shows that the
vein carries platinum and encouraged
Mr.. Mundell to make further investi-
cations. But whatever the outcome,
Mr. Mundell expects to proceed with
the development of the Macedonia in
the spring, for he had completed the
of a company for the
purpose before he had any thought of
platinum in connection with the prop
srty. He is confident that a large |
body of lead silver ore will be found |
when his plans are carried out, and if I
platinum is also included. so much the !
better
