That the single tax is not only the
beat method of securing equal rights TO
land, but Ia also the best way of raising
public revenues, and tho only way OF
raising Thorn eauitabiy and in harmony
with sound principles OF taxation, will
be explained in the lecture on 1.-THE Sim
gle Tax" tomorrow night"
After Mr.. Posts address Pref. Clark
favored the audience with q stirring
song Of freedom. Questions from the
audience we're thon invited.
Question-Will the general rate OF
interest on capital fall when the single
tax removes lands from the list OF pay
ing investments?
Answer-Intsrsst, in the common use
of the term, includes q great many
things that are not intereat-returns on
watcred stock, on real estate invest
ments, etc. Those things will not
only be reduced, but will entirely dis.
appear; but that which 10 properly in
terest would be increased, as it ought
to be.
Quention-Could q tax on monopolies
such az the telephone, telegraph and
water be shifted on to the user?
Anawer-A tax On any monopoly az
such can not be shipped because the
monopoly charges all that the traffic
will bear. When traffic is giving all
that it can bear 1t can not give any
more. and II you tax the monopoly it
cannot shift the tax. 1t is the same
with the land owner. Land yields to
the owner all that the business will
bear, and when yeu tax that, it cannot
be shifted to the user for he is already
paying all that he can pay in the pres.
ent state of things, and there is other
land that he can 20 to without paying
any more. A tax on any kind of mon
opoly that 10 already charging all that
the traffic will bsar can net be shifted.
Several other questions OF a similar
nature were asked and answered by MIR.
Post in manner that was evidently
satisfactory to the audience.
The speaker angeuResd that the Ice
ture tomorrow evening" would be do.
voted to a confederation Of the practical
application and effect, OF abolishing taxes
on business and concentrating all taxes
on land values; in other words, the
single tax as Rscal measure.

Some time since, SAYS the New York

die VI this state, an eccentric old fell
low the neighhors said, had vision,
Somebody appeared to him, spirit,
n hobgoblin or what not, and Informed
him that he had only few months To
live, The date fixed was In Novcm-

The farmer took the matter very
seriously, but he had no fears, lilo
told his friends that he was about TO
depart, and began 90 get ready, lie
paid all his debts, which Is more than
even death can induce every one 90 do,

stock for sale, lie wanted to clean
things up handsomely, AS every hon
est man should do. and leave no an.
tanglcmcnts behind him, Among 9th.
ar things Co be disposed of were two
cows, but as he wanted to live com.
fortably while he did live he concluded
to hold on To those cows until the last
moment
oddly enough. now that the time 81
his exit Is close at hand, he has had an.
other vision, A new set Of ghosts or
hohgoblins have appeared 20 him and
informed him that arrangements have
been made to allow him to stay In this

The month opens nj the end of April's
closing storm period, with storm disturb.
ances disappearing in extreme eastern
parts of the country, and cooler weather
prevailing in central and western sec.
tons. An equinox of Mercury Is central
on the Sd, and will cause cloudincss aud
tendency 10 continued driylle. In the
extreme north slect need not prove n
surprise, Ry the 18th decided change 10
warmer will develop in the west. and
during the 9th 10 the 9TH, reactionary
storms will pass over the country, being
central about the time of new moon on
the 9th. 4 sharp change 10 cooler will
follow the disturbances at this time,
with strong probabilities of frost along
the northern Sde of the country from
about eth 10 l0th.
From 10th To lIth is the next regular
period of change and storm. A very
warm wave is apt 20 appear by the llth,
in western regions, aud during the three
days next following storms Of much en-
ergy and wide scope will traverse the
country from west 10 east. Another
very cool wave for the season will come
in behind the storms. causing several
days Of much cooler weather in the coun'
try generally, Heavy rains may be rea'
sonably expected during the last named
disturbance namely, about the llth,
18th and 18th, during which time a series
of daily storms, recurring near the same
time of day, or night, for several days
need not be unlocked for. Watch harom-
eters, temperature and direction OF wind;
II barometer fails to rise after one storm
passes, with wind still in east and south,
expect another storm from the west, and
so on until conditions change.
The cool weather following the storms
of the last period will give place to warm
er, aud secondary storms will appear in
many places about the 18th and 18th,
Immediately after which the barometer
will rise rapidly TO very high reading,
attended by n sharp change 10 cooler.
From 2ist TO 2Sth falls the next storm
period, during which time It will grow
very warm, aud many storms OF rain,
thunder and wind will appear. In all
these disturbances, the intelligent Use
Of the barometer, and correct observation
Of wind currents, will foreshadow with
much certainty the coming aud the in
tensity Of storms. About the 27th aud
asth will be central the last disturbances
for May, bringing fair and cooler days
and nights for the closing month.
In the nature Of things, May must
bring more or less violence, In n meteor
illogical way, but there Is a marked alb
senoo Of disturbing causes, so far rs other
planets are concerned, There are reasons
to believe that storms will not be unnsu'
