Road work ruling on federal tax to be taken up this year
County taxpayers met in the probate court room to discuss a cooperative road program with WJ Hull for 1922 and 1923. Officials favored using current road funds to cover most of this year’s $80,000 allotment while awaiting details on state and federal backing. Aimed at concrete bridges, the plan seeks to avoid tax increases by leveraging federal and state money, with maintenance to shift to the state over time. Separately, Hecla Mining Co notes a tax ruling that dividends from depletion and depreciation reserves are tax free. claims for refunds due by March 1, 1922, and credits may reduce 1916 tax liability. Details on 1917 and later years remain unresolved.

Northern Gold Rush Near Hudson Bay
A rush to Elbow Lake in northern Manitoba follows a May discovery by the Murray brothers. Hollinger Consolidated Gold Mines Ltd of Porcupine Ont acquired two claims and now employs an engineer and 25 workers. A sleigh road is being cut from Mile 56 on the Hudson Bay railroad toward the claims as two crosscuts reveal gold values. Coarse gold was first found at Copper Lake, 12 miles from Elbow Lake, by J. P. Gordon in 1919, with Gordon claims later diamond drilled. Detroit has 31 motor plants and 219 accessory factories.

Mining Law Revision Hearings Delayed to February or March
The mines and mining house committee likely cannot take up the proposed mining law revision bill for hearings until late February or early March. Delays stem from awaiting Secretary of Interior Fall views and the government fuel yard bill, with hearings on the coal bill set for February 15 and possibly extended due to coal interests opposing continued government fuel operations in Washington.
