Z,.t county is going to astonish the state when It makes its Income t ix concerns, is the belief cf Agent Patten, in cliavge ct tUa cirpv.tlea la this conaty. Not that there will ho so naay "big Incomes reported, bnt so many working people auci small business who will come unfier the income tax law. "A town may boast tUat It has a man tliat pays 8300,000 In Income taxes, But what is that to a placo that has several tijousan:! who pay Incomes taxes. That Is the best, advertisement a town tan feet and perhaps Xake county is going to astonish? In this respect," said Mr. Patten.
