T. S. Fowler, State highway com-
missioner of Austin, spent several
hours in the city this morning. While
here Mr. Fowler addressed a gather
ing of business men at the Chamber
of Commerce. He is traveling over
the State in the interest of elec-
tion to be held November 4, wheth cer-
tain good roads amendments are to be
voted on that should they carry will
give the State the power tu issue
bonds for the construction of hard
surface roads through every county,
with the assistance of th# ...unities
and Federal aid.
Air. Fywler said that under the
present good roads building plan the
roads are not constructed and main
tained properly in a majority if the
counties and that the work as it
now done in many places is a wasti
of money. He said that many people
over the State do noPunderstand the
amendments and plead that an edu
rational campaign be placet/ on i
Denison by the Chamber of Commerce
and Rotary Club in interest of them
amendments. Should the amendments
carry the State can lie covered from
end to end wiitli a system of gooii
roads that will take care of the heavy
traffic coming on by use of automo
bill* trucks and pleasure cars. He said
the main highways should lie of hard
surface construction while the. eon
nrcting roads that are not used S'
much could lie constructed of gravel.
He brought out the point that main
highways such as those between Deni
son and Sherman should not lie con
•stcuel/d of gravel or a light tnic
ndnni. as it was only a waste of money
and the counties would soon run out
of money by constructing such roads
and attempting to keep them up. This
would result in the general public be
coming disgusted with so-called good
roads, tie said the only solution tc
the final construction of real roads
was to carry the amendments, so till
state could issue bonds in connection
with the federal and county aid and
construct main highways out of con-
crete or other hard surface material
that would take care of the heavy
traffic.
Many questions were asked tin
slate highway commissioner by busi-
ness men Interested in good roads.
Mr. Fowler left at noon for Paris,
where lie will address a mass meeting
of citizens tonight on the good roads
subject.
Independence.
The past week it was raining most
of the time. Cotton pickers worked
Monday. Tuesday they went to the
fields, hut the rain drove them hack
to shelter, and there was enough wa
ter fell Tuesday to fill the creeks to
overflowing stage. The rains con-
tinued the remainder of the week,
winding up with a norther Friday, one
which caused fires tu be started Sat
urday morning' In the heaters and
coats were put on Saturday ami over-
coats were in use. Sunday the wind
was from the north and the afternoon
was fair and. indications are for fail
weather, which the farmers are wish-
ing for, so they can gather crops.
Rev. George Scott of Hagerman fill-
ed his appointment Sunday morning.
Alter preaching he announced that he
could not preach at night, as Gedrge
Waters was dead and he was asked
to preach George's funeral in the af-
ternoon and could not get back for
night services. Two sons, one daugh-
ter and one grandchild of George Wa-
ters died about this time last year of
influenza. George some years ago
li\ed on the P. W. O’Connell farm and
friends in Independence extend their
sympathies to the bereaved family.
Mrs. \V H. Shires has just returned
from Fannin county, where she has
been visiting her son, Leonard Shires,
Who has been sick,
John Dickey carried Mr. and Mrs.
Charlie Styles to Sherman one day
last week, where Mrs. Styles received
treatment for tonsil troubles. While
in Sherman Charlie bought himself a
Maxwell car.
Mrs. Tmn Winchester of the Godwin
| farm has been going to see her mother,
Mrs. Majors, near Gordonvllle, who
has been seriously sick.
J. A. Godwin is dipping his cattle
every two weeks and will continue to
do so until freezing weather comes.
Independence is midway between
where they are sinking the well for oil
at Locust and the one Joe Donner is
sinking where the old Alliance gin
was on Sandy creek, it is claimed that
--some years ago there was" a well
drilled in this community and it con-
tained so much oil they could not use
the water. Gas blew out one well and
the water ceased to flow. These are

“Don't wait until the final dua data,
March 13th, for paying your Incoma
Tax and making your return. Avoid
tire last ml irate rush. Any person enn
figure out hla liability today as well aa
he can next week, and If there Is any
point on which he needs advice he can
now get In touch with a Revenue man."
This word of advice is from Alexan-
der S. Walker, Collector of Internet
Revenue, Austin, who Is collecting tire
Income Tax In Texas. Collector Walk-
er Is giving without charge every aid
of his office and hts enlarged field
force to help the pauple get their pay-
ments and their returns in by March.
15th.
But the Income Tax men wl|l not
pull your door bell or your coat-tails,
according to the Collector’s announce-
ment. It li squarely up to every Indi-
vidual to figure out Ills own case and
to get busy If he comes within the
scope of the new Revenue law.
Did You Earn This Much!
Every unmarried person who receiv-
ed Income averaging $19.23 a week
during 1918 and every married couple
who Jointly received Income averaging
$88.50 a week should secure nt once
from the nearest Deputy Collector or
the nearest bank a blank Form 1040 A.
That form contains the Information he
will need to enable him to figure his
correct net Income and any tax that he
owes the Government.
The law requires that every unmar-
ried person who had a net Income of
$1,000 or over and every married per-
son whose net Income was $2,000 or
over (Including the Income of husband
or wife, and the earnings of minor
children, If any) must make a return
on or before March 15th. And this re-
quirement does not hinge ou whether
(he person owes a tax.
Taxable Income.
An Individual must Include under
gross Income all gains, profits and In-
come derived from salaries, wages, or
compensation for personal service of
whatever kind Hitd In whatever form
paid, or from professions, vocations,
business, sales or dealings In property
of all kinds, Interest, rent, dividends,
or profits derived from any source
whatever. Very few Hems of Income
are exempt.
Deductions Include ordinary and nec-
essary business expenses, Interest puld
or accrued on Indebtedness, taxes of
all kinds except Federal Income and
excess profits (axes and assessments
for local benefits, losses actually sus-
tained, debts ascertained to be worth-
less, and depreciation on buildings, ma-
chinery. fixtures, etc., used In business.
A further deduction is allowed for con-
tributions to corporations operated for
religious, charitable, scientific or edu-
cational purposes or for the prevention
of cruelty to children or animals to an
amount not exceeding 15 pyr cent of
the taxpayer's net Income as computed
without the benefit of the contribution
deduction.
The taxpayer Is not allowed to de-
duct any personal, living or family ex-
pense, any amount spent for Improving
property, or any expense of restoring
property or making good Its exhaus-
tion for which «n allowance Is claimed
under depreciation.
Figuring the Tax.
Before figuring the normal tax tire
dividends are deducted as credits from
net Income, together wlih the personal
exemption. As In previous years, divi-
dends of domestic corporations are ex-
empt from normal tax when received
by the stockholder.
The normal tax rates for citizens
and residents are as follows: On the
first $4,H0i) of net Income In excess of ;
the credits tho rate is 0 per cent; on !
any further taxable Income the rate is j
12 per Cent.
The surtax rates apply to net In- |
come of each Individual In excess of
$5,000. The personal exemption and
the dividends are not deductible before
computing surtax. In the case of re-
turns hv husband and wife, the net
income of eaWi is considered separate-
ly In computing any surtax that may
be due. Form 1040 should be used for
making returns of net Income exceed-
ing $5,000, and the Inst ructions on that
form will show how to figure (he sur-
tax.
Business House Returns.
Employers and others who paid
wages, salaries, rents. Interest or sim-
ilar determinable gains In an amount
of $1,000 or over during 1018 to any
person must file an Information return
with the Government. Blanks may be
secured from the Collector.
Every partnership must file a return
showing its income and deductions and
the name and address of each partner,
-vith Ids share of the profits or losses
during the pnst .venr. Personal service
corporations will file similar Informa-
tion for 1918.
