HEARING BEFORE
 CORPORATION COM.

The Tom Reed had hearing We'd nesday last before the State Tax Com- mission to prepare basis for the tax ation of its Oatman properties this year. The company was represented at the hearing by a public accountant of Los Angeles, who presented figures on the company's production and the condition of its mines. It showed that the Telluride and United Ameri- can companies were having their pro- duct treated in the Tom Reed mill and that the company was taking only a small tonnage from it's own proper ty. From the showing it appeared possible that the future production of the Tom Reed might be larger than the present and that with the milling of ores offered from the contiguous mines there would be maintained a greater output of gold bullion.
 The State Tax Commission, it will be understood, has the settling of tax matters with mining and milling cor porations, as we'll as practically every other form of taxable property within the state, it being the intent to main tain sort of parity in the tax of every county.
