LAND AND INCOME TAX.
[from our OWN correspondent.] Thames, Monday. Joseph Crocker, a bootmaker, carrying on business in Brown-street, was charged at the S.M. Court to-day, before Mr. R. S. Bush, S.M., with failing to send in a return of income for the year 1897, as required by the Land and Income Tax Act. Defendant pleaded guilty to a technical breach of the Act, atid said he was not aware that he had to send in a return for 1897, as bis income was under £300. After the bearing of evidence, however, the magistrate fined defendant the minimum penalty of £5, together with £1 8s costs, a fortnight being allowed to pay the same.
