A SINGLE TAX TEST CASE.

Inc single tax controversy at HyattS-
vile, Md, continues to excite more or
less interest throughout the country.
Followers of HENRY GEORGE are es-
pecially wrought up over it. The story
OF now single tax was made the issue in
the election of the Hyattsvi!le town
board, with the result of victory for three
single takers as against two ants, was
told at length in last Sundays GLOBE.
1t seems, however, that the HENRY
GEORGE men are not to be allowed
to enjoy the fruits of their victory
unmolested. Their action in abol-
ishing all taxation except on land
values (and exclusive of improvements
Oh the landD was promptly contested in
the courts as being unconstitutional.
The circuit court, sitting at MARI
borough, Nd, has rendered a decision
sustaining the single-taxers, and the
latter are accordingly more than
ever Jubilant. But the case has been
appealed, and will probably be fought
clear through the Maryland courts ana
into the United States supreme cout.
The Importance of the issue for the mo-
ment lifts the little Maryland COM
munity and its single tax leader, JACK
son ID. RALsToN, into very general
prominence. Mr.. RALsToN is leading
attorney at Washington. d. c. (of
which Hyattsville is suburb), and he
selected EVANSVILLE as his place OF resi-
dence because of the exceptional facii-
ties it offers for the testing of his pet
theories regarding taxation. When one
man can accomplish what Mr.. RALsTON
has accomplished in furtherance of the
doctrine of which HENRY GEORGE is
high priest and chief prophet, the sin
gle fax issue can no longer be assigned
to the iridescent dream category. AL
most Enthusiastically the issue will some
day attain national proportions, and
therefore the progress of the Hyattsvile
test case through the courts will be
watched with close attention by all stu
dents of sociology.
