\
Corporations Failing to Make Re

Heavy Fine
Some of (ho officers of mining
companies I hat have been incor
porated in the vicinity of Valdez
seem to be under the impression
that the corporation reports re
qnired under a recent law are not
required except, in cases where the
annual -net income exceeds 85,
(KMI. This is not the case. He
poiis are to he made in all cases,
or the company makes itself lia
ble to a tine of not less than 81,
000 and not more than $10,000.
The Treasury department has
recently sent the following com-'
municalion to the collectors «•!
internal revenues:
"Corporations which have not
received the blank form upon
which reports are to he made
should secure them from I lie col
lector and have them tilled out
and verified without delay, as the
reports must be in by March 1st.!
"Kacli new corporation which
was organzied during the year
should inform the collector of
that faet. giving its exact corpor
ate name, address und nature <>f!
its business, so that it may be
placed upon the list and be fur
nished the necessary blank forms.
Corporations should he urged to
Hie their returns as soon after
January I as it is possible for
them to obtain the data required
to be shown on the return of an
nual net income.
"Attention should he called to
the fact that 25,000 corporations
failed this year to file their re
turns on or before the first day of
March and had, therefore, in
curred I lie speciiic penally of
from one thousand to ten thou
sand dollars, as provided in the
eighth paragraph «of section itH,
of the act of August f>, 1900.
"Corporations organized for
prolil and having a capital stock I
represented by shares, whose net.
income is less than live thousand
dollars during any calendar year,
are also required to make return
of annual net income and each re-I
turn must be tiled with the col
lector of internal revenue for the
district in which I lie principal
business office of the corporation
is located on or before March I,
101:.'. By 'principal business of
fice' is meant the place where are
kepi the books and records from
which the data required to be.

A HEAVY VOTE
WAS POLLED
Democrats Eleot Delegates to
Convention In Valdez on
March 29
The primary election held by
the Democratic Club for Valdez
and Reservation precincts on Sat
urday for delegates to the con
vention March 21) was as actively
waged as though the fate of the
party in Alaska depended upon
the result.
The polls were open hut four
hours, from i to 8, yet 175 voters
registered their choice <>f dele
gates lo tin? convention. There
was no opposition lo lint ticket
of the club ami owing to the fact
that such a heavy vole was polled
il is very probable no other pri
mary will be held. The candi
date's and their friends were act
ive np to th»' last minute ami they
claim that the Democrats could
easily ha\e polled another 50 hud
the voting continued a few hours
longer. The only change in the
standing of tin* deb-gates was due
lo an error in Saturday's report
of lln> elections in the Prospector.
The name of Kdmiiml Smith
which had appeared in Friday's
issue was inadvertently dropped
oil', believing some lo believe he
had expressed a wish to retire.
Activity on the part of friends at
the polling booth corrected the
error and the club ticket as nom
inated at the meeting was elect
led. Following is the result of the
election:
