INFERENCE BETWEEN STOCK
SALE AND Am EXCHANGE 0M
THE EFFECT ON INCOME TAX

| the other hand, the instructions TO
the broker are in effect to sell one
hundred shares of stock in "A cor
poratiOn and invest the proceeds IN
shares of stock in "B" corporation,
the transaction can not be treated as
an exchange but is sale of "a cor
| poration stock and a purchase of "B"
corporation stock. The element OF
exchange in this case is lacking as
there is no reciprocal transfer of Sc
curities between principals unless by
mere coincidence.
Where the broker in the transac-
ton, whatever his instructions may
be, sells the stock in ga" corpora
ton and then buys the stock in b.
corporation or buys the stock in "B''
corporation and then sells the stock
in "a" corporation, there is an inter-
val of time, however short, during
which one or both of the customers
would have title to no securities
whatever. In a true exchange the
passing of title to the stock in the
"a" corporation and acquisition of
title to the stock in the ''B" corpora
ton, and vice versa, would be stimuli
taneous as to both parties to the ex-
change.
In all cases where there is a doubt
as to whether the transaction is a
sale or exchange, all facts connected
with the transaction should be sub
mitted to the bureau of internal rev.
enue for ruling in the matter.

fit. and got a half-breed eros Ven
tres who had been in the fight to
go with me and show me the body OF
Standing Buffalo. When we reached
the battlefield we found that the
wolves and magpies had as yet not
finished their job and there was still
a lot of flesh left on the bones. We
then decided to make trip over to
where T. C. Power & Brother were
building a trading post at the mouth
of the Judith called Fort Clagget,
named after Billy Clagget, delegate
to congress from the territory of
Montana When we got over there
we found the fort about completed.
We rested up there four or six days,
when there came on a storm and
quite fall of snow. After getting
more sacks to hold the bones we
started back. When we got up to Big
Sandy creek in the foothills we found
there was nearly foot of snow on
the ground and the looks of the coun-
try so changed that I found it impos-
sible to locate the bodies of the Sioux.
We put in a whole day looking for
them, but was obliged to start back
to Fort Browning without them.
Thinking the matter over on my
way back to the fort, was ashamed
to go in and make my report to Ma

ONLY INITIATIVE BILL TO GET
ON BALLOT is PARI-MUTUEL

The pari-mutuel measure is the
only one that will go on the ballot
at the general election this year, ac-
cording to Secretary of State Charles
t. Stewart, that proposed measure
being the only one which secured the
number of signers required under the
provisions of the statute. The pari-
mutuel petition contains 1868 sign
ers, requiring only 1879, the mini
mum number required for all propos-
ed measures.
This proposed measure was certi-
fled to Governor Dixon by the sec
rotary of state.
The measure which was proposed
to have changed the primary election
law obtained less than half enough
signers to permit it to be initiated
to the voters, it having received only
6,816 signers.
The income tax measure lacked
only 2,345 signers of having a suffi-
Gent number to have been placed on
the ballot, having received 1854
signers. The inheritance tax meas
ure fell short 1872 signers, having
received 11,007.
other proposed measures for which
signers were sought but which failed
to qualify were the soldiers compen-
sation, 1888; wool fabrics, 908; and
political coercion, 1888.

the month of September. When they
reached the head of Big Sandy creek
they came on party of Gros Ventresi
men and women, out picking choke
cherries. They at once made a
charge on them and killed three or
four before they could break for their
camp. AS soon as they got to camp
with news of the Sioux being in their
country, the eros Ventres warriors
mounted and started after the Sioux.
They overlook them on a fork of
Big Sandy creek, where a running
fight began. The Sioux were out
numbered and took the back track,
leaving ten or twelve dead, includ-
ing the famous Standing Buffalo, who
fell just where the creek comes out
of steep canyon.
After the Sioux got back to their
camp there was great mourning for
their fallen chief, Standing Buffalo.
They then started to raise another
war party to go back for revenge
and to secure the body of their chief.
This party would number all the
fighting men in the camp. Major
Simmons, hearing of this, sent word
that he wanted to see them before
they started. When he got them to
the agency, he promised that if they
would give up this big war party he
would agree to send the bones of
Buffalo back to Browning.
This they at last agreed to do.
After coming to this understanding
with the Santees, Major Simmons
sent for me and wanted to know If /
would undertake to go up and get
the bones of Standing Buffalo and
bring them back to Fort Browning.
After talking the matter over fully,
It was decided that it would be bet
.er to wait until the spell of hot wea-
her was over and the magpies and |
coyotes had eaten the flesh off the
bones, when they would be easier to
handle on pack horse. 1t was not
possible to get to where the dead
Sioux lay with a wagon or blackboard.

her got cold, I fixed up pack out |

BY Col. G. r. Norris

Not many people of today know
the particulars of the death of Stand
ing Buffalo, chief of the Santee Sioux
Indians. These were some of the In
dams who took part in the massacre
of whites in Minnesota in the COS.
Fifteen or twenty of them were hung
at Mankato, Mimi, after being cap
tured by General Sibley. After that
this band moved west to Dakota and
eastern Montana and along what is
now the Canadian boundary.
The summer and fall of 1869 was
in the employ of A. j. (Jack) Sim
mons, who at that time was Indian
agent at old Fort Browning, located
on Milk river, just below the mouth
of Peoples creek. This was at the
time the agency of the Gros Ventres
and Assinniboines. That summer
the Santee Sioux moved up Milk river
and drove the Gros Ventres and As
sinniboines out of their own coun-
try They then moved west up Milk
river and late that fall, an agency
was established for them at point
close to where the city of Chinook
now stands. Major Simmons held a
council with the Santees, who agreed
to let the whites and Gros Ventres
alone. The camp, under Standing
Buffalo, was then at the east end
of the Little Rockies.
The young bucks got restless and
wanted to raise war party to go
after the eros Ventres. The eros
Ventres were then camped on fork
of Big Sandy creek at the west end |
of the Bear Paw mountains
Standing Buffalo was opposed to
raising this war party, fearing that
if they went up there it might lead
to trouble with the whites at Fort
Benton. At last he had to give in
to the young men, and told them tic
go ahead and he, himself, would lead
them After having big war dance,
as was the custom, they started out
some three hundred strong, going
west through the Little Rocky and
Bear Paw mountains. This was in

One of the most famous of the old
stage-coach drivers in Montana and
on the Overland route, and an express
guard whose reputation extended all
over the west, died recently at ogden,
Utah. He was variously known as
Dad Ross and "Hold-the-Fort"
Aaron, but his real name was Aaron
Y. Ross. He was born at Old Town
in Maine in 1929, and was therefore
SO years old.
Ross life was filled with adven-
ture. In 1856 he went in sailing
vessel to California. Later in the
same year he mined for gold on SUIT
ter Creek, Calf, and he followed
mining as an occupation in Califor-
MIA, Oregon, Idaho and Montana I'M
til 1867, when he became stage driver
and guard for the Wells-Fargo or
ganization.
He was on his route between Fort
Benton and Sun River in 1857 when
twenty-five Indians swooped down
upon his coach. Ross defended the
treasure and lives under his care with
shotgun and pistol. After a running
battle of several miles, the Indians
withdrew less five of their number,
who were dead.
At another time an outlaw named
Baker, with his gang, rode up to the
coach at Silver Star, along the Stink
ing Water river route, and command
ed Ross to throw up his hands. Ross
answer with lead and the outlaw and
his companions retired, severely
wounded. Aaron Ross also had an
other encounter with a bandit, this
time accounting for Jack Davis. In
killing this well-known highwayman,
Ross saved the driver of his coach
This was on an overland stage route
through Nevada.
In 1888 "Hold-the-Fort" Aaron
left San Francisco as guard of an ex-
press car containing $4,000 in gold
bullion. At o'clock in the morning,
at Motello, New, the train was attack
ed by band of robbers who I'M
coupled the other cars and ordered
the engineer to pull the express car
up the track.
Ross busted himself fortifying the
doors of his car with boxes, trunks
and packages. Finally commanded
by Hayes, the leader of the gang. to
surrender, under threat of being
burned out of the car if he didn't, he
said he'd see the gang in "a hotter
place. than they would make by
burning the car before he'd surren-
der. At the end of a five-hour battle
the old guard was still in possession
of the car and the treasure, although
the former was almost reduced to
kindling wood by the rain of bullets.
One robber was dead and three were
wounded. The gang retired, the
train was connected up and contin-
ued to Ogden. The four remaining
robbers were captured south of Great
Salt Lake and we're returned to Ne
yada, where they we're given SEN
fences ranging from twenty to forty
years.
One thousand dollars in gold was
given to Ross, who also received a
$3.50 watch, specially made, and en-
graved with his name and brief rec
ord of his deed, the award in recog-
milton of his bravery being accompan-
led by letter of praise from the gen.
eral superintendent of the Wells
Fargo organization.

might pick skeleton and get back
into the fort before daylight. Judd
said he might be able to grease up
the bones, and make them look fresh
and pass them off on the Sioux as
the bones of Standing Buffalo.
I started out at once and after go
ing about five miles above the Fort
on Milk river found large dry cot
tonwood, fairly filled with dead eros
Ventres. After pulling them out
selected skeleton and took it back
to the fort. BY this time it was get
ting along toward morning and
things would have to be fixed up
quick. After spreading out the
bones on a table, and at the eleventh
hour, it came into our heads that all
this whole thing would fail to work
owing to the fact that Standing Buff
falo was a, very tall man, about six

ly, while the skull might pass, the
leg and arm bones would have to be
of extra large size and length, which
these we're not, SO we simply had to
face the music and tell them the
best lie we could think of, which was
that on my way down the packhorse
with the bones had gotten away and
struck across the prairie and that I
was unable to overtake it. This was
done and the Indians took it pretty
hard, but it could not be helped. So
this ended it all, and more snow fall
ing and the winter bcing a severe
one. the Indians had all they could
do to live, to say nothing of going
to war.
So the bones of Standing Buffalo
were left at the head of Big Sandy
creek, where he fell, together with
ten or twelve more of his braves.

The difference between sale
many persons who for the purpose OF
making out their income tax report
are seeking opinions from the reven-
ue department. The government re-

trict, has issued the following state

Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived by the bureau of internal rev.
enue concerning section 202 (c) ID
of the revenue act of 1921 which pro-
vides that for the purposes of the in

vestment, or for productive use in
trade or business (not including
stock-in-trade or other property held
primarily for sale) is exchanged for
property of like kind or use.
Many taxpayers and statesmen of
securities are interpreting this to
mean that all sales of securities and
the immediate purchase of like Sc
curities are exchanges resulting in
no gain or loss Such Interpretation
of the law and regulations is erro-
neous
The bureau realizes that in many
cases it is difficult to determine whe-
Their the transaction is a true ex-
change or really sale and reinvest-
ment of the proceeds in other securi-
ties. To constitute an exchange
within the meaning of section 202
(c) Cd the transaction must be a
reciprocal transfer of property as dis
from transfer of prop
erty for money consideration. In
such an exchange neither principal
would pay commission to the other,
