clothing and food he is perishing for
the want of are in abundance around
him. and the access to "free land
would not enable him to either produce
more of what Is already in abundance
or obtain the wherewthal to purchase.
The man who has cornered the money
holds an option on both product and
producer. Mr. Garland supplements
the above quotation with the following :
"But the greatest effect of all will be
the opening up of opportunity for
capital and labor to employ themselves,
without first paying tribute to the mere
land owner" To which we will add
the users of capital which here only
means money, and the employers OF
labor must first and last pay tribute to
the lord of the purse, who, under pres
ent financial conditions, controls every
dollar of money that must be used to
produce and distribute wealth, and that
is the gordian knot the single tax will
not unite. Mr.. Garland, like all other
single takers, ignores this factor in
order to make their theory "hold
water" Not one of them attempts to
meet 1t Gentlemen, "you can't fool
all the people all the time"

81 suggest that you insert the following
clipping in your paper and refute if
you can the argument made" The
following is the Stars argument"
"Were people ever known to live
without money? Yes. Were they
ever known to live without land? No.
Then which question is the most vital ?
Suppose that tomorrow all the money
was burned or dumped into the sea /;
would any one suffer from want of food
if the earth was accessible to all. the
season genial, the soil fertile and the
people judiciously industrious? No.
Now suppose that all the money, and
even all the property, was left, but all
the eultivable land sunk or sterilized ;
would all the money they had and all
they could make save them from faminr.

Present conditions are what we have
to deal with. Not imaginary cases
made to order. The same single tax
brother in his letter says:
"When gold was discovered in Cali ,
fornia cooks in restaurants received $50
week, unskilled laborers SIS and $50
a day composltors $3.50 per thousand
ems. Being printer l can state that
only in few cities in the country is
so cents per thousand ems now paid.
Men will never work for others fer less
than they can make by working for
themselves"
All this bears no relation to the
single tax, but turns entirely on the
power of money. The reason cooks
got $50 a week and others proper
tionally high wages was because money
for the time being was more plentiful
than labor. Labor poured in much
faster than gold could be dug out-the
"dust'' being illegal tender" by COM
mon consent in California. Money then
and there was what we call Inflated
1t was cheap as compared with the
demand for labor. The difference
between $50 week $40 week, and
the difference between So so per 1000
ems and so cents, is the difference
between the volume of money in the
country at large at present, and labor,
and the difference between the amount
of mone7 in circulation in that partic-
ular location in California at the time
alluded to and the number of ]aborers.
II we had Donnelly's "Golden Bottle
and could convert iron nails into gold,
we could soon produce similar condl-
tious right here. You zee this phenom-
enon is a simple matter of the size OF the
volume of money in use as compared
with what is to be purchased with that
money.
1t the workers could turn iron nails
into gold the money lords would make
the atmosphere blue with profanity
deuouncing gold as not fit to be used as
money, but "confdence' and hank
credits" were alone fit to represent
money, and the only medium through
which those airy nothings should reach
the people would be over a bank
counter, with good long tail in the
shape Of interest attached to keep them
steady while sucking the blood from
the heart of labor. Brothers of the
single.tax only church, the single tax
would be an excellent system of taxa
ton but it could not remedy the
deplorable money system which is

money answereth all 'hings," says
the wise mau, but the single tax would
only answer one thing. A mode OF
raising government revenue. The tax

would permit taxing idle lands to the
iull value of improved lands. which
would be a partial remedy to land

Danger from catarrh.

The most important feature about that
very common complaint, catarrh in the
head. is its tendency to develop into some
other more serious and dangerous disease.
The foul matter dropping from the head
into the brochial tubes or lungs is very
liable to lead to bronchitis or consumption,
that destroyer which causes more deaths in
this country than any other disease. AS
catarrh originates In impurities In the blood,
local applications can do but little good.
The common sense method of treatment is
to purify the blood, and for this purpose
there is no preparation superior to Hoods
Sarsaparilla The powerful action of this
medicine upon the blood expes every inn
purity, and by so doing cures catarrh and
gives health to the entire organism.
