DEATH CLAIMS
JOHN MILLS
Was One of the First White
Settlers in the Columbia
River Valley

John Mills who was one of the first
white settlers in this part OF the
Columbia Valley, and who made his
home on the banks of the great river
for nearly forty years, was laid to
rest yesterday in River View Heights
cemetery.
Mr.. Mills died Sunday at his home
in Hover after an illness of Ia months
Funeral services were conducted at
2 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the
Hover church by Rev. F. L. Fraser,
of this city. The church was far too
small to accommodate all who wished
to attend.
NV The Rev. Fraser closed his remarks
with the following obituary:
John Mills was born in South
Hampton, England, May Is, 1855.
He came to Canada in 1871, when
but fifteen years of age, this was
characteristic Of the independent
pioneer spirit that characterized Mr..
Mills all his days October 25, 1878,
he was united in marriage to Miss
Emma Robson, of Ontario, and eight
years later they came with their
small family to the banks of the
Columbia near Hover, where Mr.. Mills
engaged in farming and stock raising.
In 1905 after ninteen years of siren.
Gus pioneering and arduous labor he
retired, somewhat broken in health,
and settled in Hover in his vine clad
cottage overlooking the Columbia. Mr..
Mills was one Of the very oldest pio-
neers in this part Of the state.
On the entrance gate of the trans
portation building at the Worlds
Fair in Chicago, were these words,
ITO the brave settlers who levelleG
forests, cleared fields, made paths by
land and water and planted common
wealth."
Among such settlers we place the
name of John Mills, and to such men
we owe many of the comforts and
privileges we have today. Mr.. Mills
was man of few words. He was one
Of those quiet, steady men that hold
q community along safe lines-modest
unassumming, frank and outspoken,
those who knew him best recognized
his worth and the longer he was
known the stronger .became Ghe evil
dence of appreciation.
The end came last Sabbath morn
ing after long trying illness of Ia
weeks Everything was done for him
that careful nursing and devotion of
q faithful wife and thoughtful sons
could do to make his last days as
comfortable as possible. Although
paralyzed and unable to talk he gave
clear evidence before the end came
that he had committed his life into the
keeping of Christ his Redeemer.
He leaves to mourn his loss a wife
and three sons, Albert, William and
Charles, who are all present at this
service today.

FUR FARMERS N QUANDARY OvER
 INCOME TAXES

The problem of just how fox farm ing firms and corporations are to make up their income tax returns is something which may require a ruling from the department.
 H. H. Murray and G. H. Wallace, the two government income tax ex- perts now in Alaska advising with tax payers regarding parts of the law that might be confusing are not pre- pared to give any definite answer as to how fox corporations may be hand led by their department.
 The fox industry is a new one, but has rapidly developed to considera- ble proportions. The rule that applies to corporations handling stock will hardly apply to fox farmers for the simple reason that the latter cannot count their stock, as is true of stock that is branded A particular farmer may have a general idea of the num- Der of foxes on a particular island, but after the young pups are born, it would prove rather difficult for him to set forth exactly the number on the island in order that they might be in- cluded in his assets.
