Three Petitions Filed to Start Montana Initiative Measures
Helena Independent reports three initiative petitions filed to place new Montana laws before voters in November. The measures cover a six percent license tax on mining net proceeds, a new tax collection method, and an irrigation measure. W B Sands of Chinook wrote a favorable argument for the tax and collection bill. The mining tax would tax metals with penalties for false reports and altered delinquency rules, with staggered penalties and revised interest. The irrigation plan would authorize a twenty million dollar bond issue to support state irrigation development by buying district bonds.
