ARIZONANS WILL PAY
THREE MILLIONS FOR
INCOME TAX THIS YEAR

Ten thousand Arizonans will pay
approximately $3,000,000 in taxes on
incomes earned during 1922, Frank r.
Stewart, collector of internal revenue
for the district of Arizona, estimates.
The estimated number of income
taxpayers this year is almost ten per
cent greater than the number obliged
to pay last year, it was stated. The
estimate is based on improved condi-
tions throughout the state and the re-
sumption of mining operations in all
of the larger mines during 1922, it
was announced. Incidentally, many
high-salaried officials are employed
by the mines, which will increase the
number of persons eligible to taxation
under the income tax provision of the
revenue act, officials said.
Last year 9,132 persons paid $2,-
10000 in income takes in this state,
or an average of about $500 per per-
son. 1t is expected that this average
will be maintained this year.
Returns on incomes must be IN the
hands of revenue department offlc-
ials not later that March 10TH
Persons whose incomes are taxable
under the provisions of the act, must
accompany their filing with not less
than rs per cent of the annual tax.
The full amount can be paid at that
time or, for the convenience of the in
dividual, can be divided into equal
quarterly installments.
Returns on incomes earned during
1922 are being filed more promptly
this year than last, due, presumably,
to the educational work of the depart
ment.
Payment of the tax is being made
more cheerfully than year ago, too,
Indicating an easier financial condl-
ton among the individuals of the
state.
Last year, in addition to persons
filing returns on which taxes had to
be paid, 1868 others in Arizona were
required to file returns on incomes.
The number in this class for 1922
probably will reach the $4,000 mark,
Mr.. Stewart estimated.

HORSES RETURN HOME
AFTER LONG ABSENCE

Several of the wild horses which
were deported from this forest to the
Indian country in the northeastern
part of the state after the roundup
year ago last summer, have re-
turned to their old haunts, according
to reports from stocl1men and ranch
ers. About 200 head of these horses
were sent from the ranges last year
and taken into the Indian country
north of Winslow and evidently have
had considerable difficulty with fences
and range division lines in their re-
turn trip.
1t is estimated that there are about
900 head OF these wild horses on the
two near ranges and it is said that
they are easily gentled and accustom-
ed to domestic use.
