About twenty. five persons met In the
Wilmington Col 'ege Of Music last night
TO hear talk on the single tax question,
as advocated by the followers OF Henry
George.
George W. Kreer, agent for the Pru
Dental Life Insurance Company OF this
city, called the meeting 10 order and was
made chairman of 1t Mr.. Kreer stated
the objects OF the meeting, which was to
abolish all taxes except that on land.
The meeting was ably addressed by A.
A. Stevenson and ii. v. Hetzel OF Phila-
delphia. Mr.. Stevenson took by way OF
illustration the cate OF the first settler In
fertile valley near river.
This settler would occupy that land
and more settlers would cone until the
best land was consumed. The speakers
superstition was that this land would
produce twenty bushels of wheat to the
acre. Other settlers would come in and
occupy the stcond best land which, for
instance, would produce fifteen bushels
per acre. Thea the rent would be the
price OF five bushels of wheat. Then the
poorer land would be occupied which
would, for instance, produce five bushels
per acre. Then the rental value Of the
best land would 60 up The poorest and
cheapest ianu that Can DC occupied regu-
lates rent. The speaker said wages is
regulated by what man can put on land.
Again the wages Is regulated by the
margin oil cultivation. The trouble Ia
that when man goes into c7untry he
occupies more laud than he can use. The
| speaker said that the land of country Ia
the equal right OF every one and no man
has right to more OF II than he can use
himself. He discussed at some length the
principles OF free trade. which was lead
| ing principle Of the single tax idea.
At the close OF the lecture Mr.. Kreer
asked all who were present and In favor
hold up their hands, when fourteen hands
went up. A temporary organization was
then made by elect!pg Mr.. Kreer presi
dent and Samuel Bishop secre' AIRY. Alter
the appointment OF a committee to secure
a room the meeting adjourned.
