THE GOOD TIME COMING.
The Single Tax and Henry Georges Pro
posed Reform.

The Single Tax and Henry Georges Pro-
posed Reform.
Rev. Father Huntington, of New York
City, made an address in Ashfield and
discussed the needs of farmers and tho
causes of the increasing depression in
agricultural districts. He showed that
as farm work lies at the base in the bus
mess world, every mercantile and man.
ufacturing class has class beneath it
to grind the taxes out of, the farmers
virtually pay the taxes. In the largo
cities tens of thousands of laborers are
kept by starvation wages so poor that
they can not buy the farmers produce,
and so his market is reduced to a mini
mum, and life becoming dull and empty
in the country, hundreds of thousands
of young men and women are pouring
into the cities from what might be hap
by country homes.
Once the farmers were the leading
class in New England. To-day we hear
''Who cares for the farmers?" Tho
millionaire is tho only important man.
And how does he get his money? BY
controlling and restricting natural ad-
vantages God gave the land to man
kind to be used freely for the common
good Why is it that 1,700 human be-
ings have to be crowded into one single
block in New York City? Because it is
possible for land to be held unused at
enormous prices-for speculation. We
tax men now by taking away from thcm
a part of what they produce. This real
| ly is nothing more nor less than rob-
bery-legalized robbery. Let every
man have all he produces, but do not al
low men to have any more than tho
use of the land. Let them have their
title to land Just as at present,
but let them pay rent for it to the
government for land belongs Of
right to all tho people. So it was held
of old in England, when the farmers
were prosperous and Free and not slaves,
as they virtually are to-day. Let there
be but one single tax and that levied on
tho land, according to its rental value.
Then the greatest monopoly that exists
to-day would be destroyed, and there
would begin to be freedom in the world
of the wage-worller. Men who wanted
to buy homesteads would find abundance
of land in the market, for no one would
no man who can own q homestead can bo
compelled to work for starvation wages.
With the elevation of tho working
classes in the cities the farmers produce
would be in demand and fair prices could
be obtained. The millionaires would
not roll up money SO fast and in the end
would share some of thcir millions with
the farmers.
The great law of God would be then
obeyed, that the land is given to men as
air and water and light are, for the ben
ent of all. And the other law of God
would he recognized, that every mar
has right to the enjoyment of just
return for what his labor has pro
duced from the natural opportunities
given him.
What is advocated is not a commun
istic partition of land, but single tax
laid not on land. but on tho value o
land *, in Gazette and Courior, Green

PLAIN WATER AND SALT.

duce disastrous results, ali excessive
use OF il would scarcely be less harm
full. In large doses il acts as an
emetic; in quantities beyond the re-
quirements of health ii irritates the
stomach and intestines and sometimes
purges. Those who use salt unusually
freely almost always suffer more or
less from constipation.
To drink large quantities Of water
daily should be the rule Of those who
suffer from constipation. Each day

AID THE STARVING IRISH.

The New York Sun publishes an
appeal TO the people of America
from the American committee for
the relief of the famine in Ireland.
Itsays the point of actual suffering
from hunger is not yet reached, but
the days of starvation, unless help
comes, are not far off. In the last
great famine, in 1873 and 1879,
Parneil, Davitt and others who
voiced the country's appeal for food,
pledged themselves never again to
appear as suppliants before the
world on behalf Of starving Ireland.
So no appeal has been sent out, and
probably none would come from
that source until the situation be-
came desperate. A movement is on
foot among well known men, not
connected with any Irish societies
or political bodies, to bring the aid
of America to the approaching ca.
lamity which now threatens Ireland
before actual famine has claimed
any victims. 1t has been desired to
organize under the name of Amer
lean Committee for the Relief Of
Famine in Ireland"
The personnel of the American
committee contains the following
names: Chairman. General Jane,
Grant Wilson; honorary chairman
Hon. r. Hayes; Hon. Grover Cleve
land, vice chairman; James Red
path, Col. 4. +. Shepard, james
Phillips; secretary, Dudley Vinton
Chauncey M. ,Depew has accepted
the craftsmanship of the sub-com
mittee of transportation. The com
mittee appeals for immediate con
.tributions of money, provisions anc
clothing.

that at the age of 10 he had attained

The SITUATION.

III Is SIMPLY repeating what we
have said before, and what every
intelligent man knows to be the
truth, to say that this country is in
fairly prosperous condition, which
is using moderate expression. The
institution Of comparison between
these islands and almost any other
country that may be named would
justify the application to ourselves
of a stronger term than ''fairly pros
porous" BY comparison it would
appear that the country, as whole,
is more than fairly" prosperous at
the present time.
This satisfactory condition is due
primarily to the unusually high
prices realised for our last sugar
crop. The extra cash, or u portion
thereof, coming in the first place
into the hands Of q few planters,
has been thrown by them into the
various channels of trade, through
which, directly or indirectly, it has
reached or benefited the whole COM
munity. The high prices have also
tended to excite and encourage en-
tsrprise in the way of increased cul-
tivation, besides inducing consider.
able idle capital TO seek investment
in plantation stock that was pre-
yiously not in demand. a hopeful
state Of feeling has been cngendered
in the mind of the community, and
tiInid capital, lying concealed, has
heen emboldened to show its head.
There are other causes which have,
in some degree, added to the soun-
try:s prosperity and helped to put
The community in good humor. The
gradual establishment Of confidence
10 governmental stability after the
shaking caused by the revolution of
1887 is prominent factor. History
shows that sudden changes--how-
ever strong the arguments in their
favor-effected by tra-constitu-
tional means, have tendency TO
produce, for q time, an unsettled
condition that is attended, more or
less, by lack Of the confidence so
essential to state OF general pros
perity. 1t is useless 10 deny that
our revolution, bloodless as it was,
had this effect. Whatever distrust,
having an unsettling influence, may
have existed under the regular gov.
ernment prior to that time, was
greatly increased, though perhaps
somewhat transferred, by the ire.
gular change, Notwithstanding the
desirability Of change.
As an illustration OF this point re-
ference might be made to the scheme
Of the late lanentcd S. G.. Wilder
TO open large tract of country or
the island of Hawaii, by line OF
railroad, which was calculated tc
aid greatly in the general prosper
ity. The means TO carry the pro-
iect into effect was not procurable
at home, but in the worlds money
centre, London, there was every
hope Of its being obtained, and, in
fact, was next to promised, when
our revolution came along and pro.
duced distrust in the minds OF
money lenders there, and hence the
failure OF the scheme.
Now, the two and half years
stable government which have fol-
lowed its irregular Inauguration have
restored and established confidence
ut home and abroad, and this conf
dence, added to confidence in the
prospect Of profitable returns, ,stimu-
lates enterprise and Investment, these
put idle money into circulation, and
The circulation Of money begets
prosperity.
