The Direct Route East

The Ohio & Mississippi railway, running
east from ST. Louis, is the short and direct
line to the national capital, and offers a
through train service which is not equaled
BY any other line. II is, properly speaking,
the only direct through car line from the
Mississippi river to Washington.
The Ohio & Mississippi railway is the
only line running all trains through solid
from st, Louis TO Cinclnnati, the time
being less than ten hours; and the only line
running double daily lines OF Pullman
vestibule buffet sleeping cars from ST.
Louis TO New York via Washington, Balti-
more and Philadelphia without change.
The o. & M. has an snvisbls reputation
for speed, comfort and safety, and the
regularity Of it's trains is proverbial with
the travelling public; in practice il almost
realizes the ambition of every railroad
management to have trains always on
time.
The popularity Of the o. & NJ. railway
oompels it TO run three daily trains to Gin
cinnati and two to Louisville, to accommodate
its steadily increasing travel; fully 95 per
cent. OF the business from Sc. Louis to and
via Cincinnati eastward being accredited TO
the o. & M.
Both the day and night express trains of
the D. i M. are equipped with elegant vesti-
bule day coaches and Pullman Vestibule
buffet sleeping cars. Pullman buffet par
lor library cars are also on day express and
free reclining chair cars on night express
trains.
ALI trains Of this line connect in union
depots with those for points in above
named territories.
For tickets via the 0. & M. Ry., and
further information, call on agents of con-
necting lines or address G. B. Warfel, Gen
eral Western Passenger Agent, Ohio &

high respect for Mr.. Davis as stubborn

and come into possession himself. Nov
the people have changed landlords, thu
lsndlordism still exists, the landlord still
has clear title and owns the earth. Car
you break his title by issuing more cur
rency? Not by any means; neither
could you have broken the title of his
predecessor by this course. The fundR
mental doctrine of greenbackism, as ]
understand it, that the issuing Of paper
money is proper function Of govern
ment, fully concur in and believe.
also fully concur in the Davis state
ment that 'landlordism is the least
merciful, most complete and perfect sys-
tenn for the enslsvement Of the human
race yet devised" Mr.. Scully is the in
heritor Of profits Of ancestral robbers.
He has also added very largely to his
fortune by the unes'ned increment Of
his Illinois land.
1t is commonly reported that this land
was purchased at the government price
Of Sl.25 per acre, and that it is now
rented to tenants at so so per acre an
nual rental, and that the tenants pay all
taxes and make all improvements. Mr..
Scully purchased this land before any
greenbRcks were issued, he held it all
through the time when we had a cur
renCy adequate to the business necessi-
ties Of the country" and still holds it In
spite OF currency contraction. Should
he be forced to sell under the Illinois
alien landlord act his tenants will simply
change landlords, and under the state
and national taxation laws, will be op-
pressed in the same manner as now,
whether the landlord is q foreigner or an
American.
Declaration 4 Of the preamble Of the
Knights Of Labor, to which order Mr..
Davis belongs, reads as follows:
"The land, including all the natural
sources Of wealth, is the heritage Of all the
people and should not be subject to speou-
lative traffic. Occupancy and use should be
the only title TO the possession of land. The
taxes upon land should be levied upon its
full value for use exclusive of Improvements
and should be sufficient to take for the COM
munity all unearned increment"
Tne uneRrned increment of land is
that value which comes to land by the
growth OF the community, and not by
the individual effort Of the owner. The
Scully rents are an instance Of unearned
increment BY the growth Of population
and the demand for land to use, he is
enabled to draw annually from rents an
income twice in amount of the original
purchase money of the land.
This unesrned increment is what we
propose taking for use of the community
by means Of the single tax.
This declaration seems to me to be the
most important one in the Knights Of
Labor preamble, and the final propo-
sitiOn to take for the community all un-
earned increment contains the essence.
1t would destroy the speculative value
Of land and bring about the nearest sp-
proRch to q system where use and occu-
pancy would be the only title to the
possession OF land. Because under this
system it would be Improbable for any
one to possess land unless put to Its best
use.
Mr.. DAVIS has something to say about
use and occupancy as q remedy for land

Fire.,

The fire alarm was again sounded last
Sunday morning, shortly after the last
church bell had called the worshippers
together. The fire proved to be a vacant
house on Fourth street, formerly occupi
ed by Addison Conright, and owned by
Conductor W. 5. Kinney. The flames
were well under way before the hose
carts arrived and pressure for water
could be obtained, and had there been
any wind blowing the house would un-
doubtedly have been burned down. with
a strong probability Of the fire spreading
to other houses in the nelghborhood.
As it was the building was pretty badly
wrecked. The origin Of the fire is un-
known, but it is presumed TO have been
caused by children playing in the build
ing or by tramps who slept there during
the night

Keep Cool.

The following from the Fargo Argus Is
as applicable TO the farmers of South
Dakota as 10 those Of the North state:
There need be no excitement among
the farmers as To the lack Of money t.
buy wheat, nor no rushing with 1t to
market. The wheat situation ought to
improve. There is IA short crop and the
price is below the cost OF production.
A state of affairs prevails that cannot
last and one can more safely prophesy i
better price for the cereal than to make
almost any other prophesy.
1t is good advice 10 say, Don't hurry
the gram market" If there are credl
tors who are to have share OF the crop,
they must be reasonable. They cannot
fairly ask you 10 sacrifice your property.
They must exercise a little patience and
with little patience things are bound
to improve.
There isn't too much wheat. 1t is a
good thing to bear in mind that the crop
is short and that the best wheat in the
world, what there is Of il, is in North
Dakota. The quality of the gram Is
good.
The Argus has before dlsclalmed any
intention Of advising farmers as TO whe
ther they shall "hold their wheat or
not; but in view Of the fact that persons
interested in the purchase Of the grain
are busily asserting ,Lat the money 70
buy the grain will not be Forthcoming
and that the price will, consequently be
low, it is we'll to remember where these
rumors originate and 10 discount them
very considerably.
The Argus believes that the money
will come forth to buy the grain. Due
bills, fifteen and thirty day promises to
pay for wheat should not he accepted.
nor should large difference between
the termlnal,price and the price at the
station be allowed. Keep posted on the
prices. Your station agent will tell you
the freight per bnshel 10 the terminal
and the newspapers and the circulars
OF the commission men will advise as to
prices in the large markets. Don't be
rushed into selling your wheat. at any
price and upon any terms you can get.
Ii the due bill is allowed to become cur
rent, there will be many unscrupulous
and dishonest people who will try 10
take advantage OF the situation. 81.
patient and induce others to lac patient
and you will get money for your wheat,
and, it IS hoped. fair price
