MUST FILE STATE INCOME
TAX RETURNS AT ONCE

The time for filing 1886 state income
tax returns will close April Is, SO states
l.. c. Burns, supervisor for the income
tax department of the state board of
equalization at Helena. Taxpayers who
are in doubt should ask the board for
instructions Immediately.
In spite Of all the publicity given
this question there are hundreds of
taxpayers who forget or neglect to dis
charge their duty under the law by
filing their state income tax returns on
or before the closing date OF the filing
period.
There are few who contend they
never have heard of the state income
tax law and yet they have incomes suf-
ficient to require them to file return.
The great crop of delinquents for whom
the board of equalization must dill
gently search comes from that class who
neglect or forget to file their returns.
This crop Of delinquents must pay
the penalty for their oversight. Even
ignorance of the law is not acceptable
in any court as an excuse for failure
to file return If this excuse were
accepted there would be no incentive
for taxpayers to file their returns on
time.
The board has no desire to impose
penalties. They always create friction
and arguments which no one enjoys.
They have a tendency to destroy that
cordial relationship which should ex-
ist between the taxpaying public and
the administrative offices Of the board
1t is impossible to have an income tax
auditor on every mans doorstep on
April Is to assist him with the prepare
ton and filing of his return. The board
is, therefore, limited in furnishing this
service to the greatest number who can
be reached in the shortest possible
time.

MANY DEER KILLED
BY RAILWAY TRAINS

MISSOULA.4- Powerful headlights,
which help to safeguard the passengers
on railway trains as they speed through
the inky blackness of night in the win
ter-bound mountains, have made trains
leading enemy Of big game in sew
eral strips through northern Idaho and
western Montana, it is revealed by re-
ports of game studies men of the
Northern Rocky Mountain national for
est region.
There are two reasons for this.
Deer find travel on the cleared tracks
easier than through the deep snow else
where. Their alertness to recognized
dangers is attested by the fact that
rarely is one run down in daytime. AT
night, however, they seem unable to
comprehend the menace OF speeding
ball of fire" as detached from the
ground as the stars, and tragedies
happen.
The outstanding cases of game
slaughter from this cause reported this
year happened last month near Avery,
Idaho. Along Slate creek, six deer of
a herd of IL were killed by one train,
and on the North Fork of the St. Joe
river two trains the same night took a
toll of five deer from two herds, total
ing 20 animals.
Salt placed on railway switches to
keep them workable In cold weather
is the second reason for deer being
placed IN deaths path. The natural
salt licks are now-buried in winter,
SO the animals flock to the salted
switches. Efforts by the railway COM

panies, the state game authorities, and
the forest service to correct this situa-
ton, included the use of kerosene with
salt at the switches, and the placing of
salt for the game at places away from
the tracks.
Reports to the forest service by rail-
road men indicate that the kerosene has
had little effect, If any, in making the
salt unattractive to the deer, and that
other means must be sought.
