Please note our Voucher H-3937 in today's
mail, favor State of Washington, Corporation Information Bureau.
This is the first intimation we have ever had regarding the existence of such a tax, and have vouchered
promptly in order that the standing of this Corporation
may be preserved in Court, should occasion arise.
Kuch in the shape of a dream it appears to us
that Mr. Blaisdell's office handled this· matter at one
time, but we can find nothing in our records.

Mr. E. s. Brooks, Superintendent,
Washington Union Coal Co.,
T o n a., Washingtono
Dear Sir:
I am enclosing correspondence tha t has come to
us from the Uorporation Information Bureau ,of the State of
Washi~gton, calling upon the Washington Union Coal Company
to pay license fees for the years 1915, 1916 and 191?, at
$15. 00, together with penalties aggregating $5.00, and fees
$5.00.

Will you please ascertain whether payment of
these license fees were ever made,and if not,in order to
bring the Coal Company back to good standing,have the statement vouchered immediately.
I am advising the Bureau that we are looking

~nto the matter and if we find that they have not been paid
will transmit at once.

It is my understanding that we are

'not to look after the payment of fees of this nature or any
other f;rrmn this office so far as the Washington Union Coal
Company is concerned.

Very truly yours,
HWB i&lt;J3
