If our business men ever intend to
start the enterprise OF rice cleaning
mill, they should do so without fur
ther delay Other localities are be-
ginning to move in the matter, and
If OpelOusas does not look out within
the next few months, it will lose the
bulk of the rice trade that has hereto
fore been coming to this market. This
is no idle warning, because wherever
rice mills are erected, within reason,
able distance, the rice farmers will
carry their products to the most in
viting facilities for milling and good
prices. Let our citizens move at
once.-OpelouSu8 Courier.

The Battle of New Orleans.

The last conflict on the American soil
between the armies of the United
States and Great Britain, was fought
on the Sth of January, 1915. The
United States forces. numbering 1900.
were commanded by Gen. Andrew
Jackson. and the British from 5000
to 1900 according to various ae-
counts) by Gen. Sir E. Packenham.
After hard fighting for several fours,
the British drew off with the loss of
1000 men, while the American casu.
alities were only six killed and seven
wounded. Louisiana was thereby saw.
ed to the Union, as the British claim
was that the purchase from France in
1904 was void, Nepolean being a
usurper, and having no right to sell.

and beautiful city adjacent can be

MR.. EDIToR:--It is stated that the
real estate dealers and others in the
cities of st. Paul and Minneapolis are
making an effort to have a bill passed
by the legislature exempting manu-
facturers who may locate their estab-
lIshments in those cities from tax
alton for certain period of time.
This is held as an inducement to man.
ufacturers to locate in the Twin Cities.
| this is good for Minneapolis and ST.
Paul why not for River Falls! for most
certainly will manufacturer locate
there where he will be exempt from
taxation for term of years in prefer
ence to locating in River Falls, while
he might possibly be induced to locate
here if the same inducement is held
out to him. What do you think of it,
citizens of River Falls; shall we let
Minnesota gather all the plums!

On our way from st. Paul Saturday
we found on board the train G. w.
Youngman of st. Paul, bound for
Ellsworth, Wis. lie exhibited to us a
plat of his new subdivision of the
Oscar Higbee land purchased at East
Ellsworth. From the appearance of
the map and the location of East Els
worth, we should predict quite a
boom for that town. Heretofore,
many people, who desired to build,
were practically turned away for the
want of good building sites, as Mr..
Higbee would not sell in parcels.
Ellsworth, situated as it is, at the ter
minus of the railroad and in the
heart of timber country, should,
and no doubt will, make rapid ad-
vances.

The lecture of Henry George of
New York was well attended on Thurs.
day evening by an audience that gave
the speaker the height of pleasure in
its attention, its discrimination, and
at suitable times, It's applause. The
audience evidently considered the &C.
casion an unusual one for reaching
the truth of statements, for nearly
two hours were accorded by the
speaker, after finishing his set lecture,
for questions and answers, and the
free parliament" feature put the
speaker and auditor alike upon the
happiest personal basis for candid
study of the questions.
Mr.. Georges diction is choice, his
exposition is direct and forcible, 30 no
person fails TO be impressed with the
speakers sincerity. The great corner
stone of Mr.. Georges attack is the in
equality of distribution Of tax bur-
dens as now borne and the consequent
corruption of finance and morals; his
corner stone of substitution of bet
ter system is one tax laid on land val.
ues alone; and his corner stone of
means of accomplishment is found in
gradual rise i'll the tax in land values
and corresponding diminutiOn of tax
of personal property. To illustrate
by simple conditions the speaker as
sumed the following:
l. The lowest land value is that land
which will produce Is bushels (wheat)
annually; and land that will produce
less bushels will not be cultivated. 2.
The next better land will produce 20
bushels. 3. The next better % bush
els. Now any person using the 10
bushel land will not pay tax because
the Is bushels afford no margin. Any
person using the 20 bushel land will
pay bushels tax. Any person using
the % bushel land will pay 10 bushels
tax. This would result in compelling
land owners to use land or to let 9th
ers use, it and would abolish specula-
tors in land--holders rise, who re-
press the establishment of homes
who accept profits that are made pos
sible by others industry.
We present the naked propositions
of Mr.. George and at present leave
others to judge of their value.
Our citizens are not convinced that
exemption of personal property is de.
sirable, nor that the expected advan-
tageS to laborers would follow the one
tax system. But everybody is graft
fed at having an opportunity to con-
verse, as it were, with this gentleman
upon his favorite topic.

OLner premiums.

We suggest to our citizens that in
considering Henry Georges tax
scheme that he has several PROPOSE
tions that he takes for granted, but
which must be weighed before assent
can be given to his means.
l. That changes can be wrought IN
conditions of labor. in distribution CT
wealth, or in systems of taxation that
will carry any great number of the
hand-to-mouth laborers into the class
of partial capitalists.
2. That any such results can come
through means outside of laborers
themselves,-the persons whose con-
ditions are to change.
8. That present land owners will
consent to a system of taxation that
amounts to resumption of realities by
the state.
