WHO ARE DEMOCRATS.

The Corpus Christi Caller very just
Nv remarks that a man who would
give up lis Democracy on account OIL
his opposition to Mr.. Cleveland is like
the man who would give up his reIig-
ion on account of objections to his
preacher. The Caller adds that De-
mocracy is larger than Cleveland.
That is very true, but nevertheless,
Cleveland is about the best exponent
of honest Democratic principles that
we have had since the days of Jeifer-
son who seems to be a political head
light by which Cleveland runs the
Democratic train, With all the lights
of Democracy in full glare upon any
subject upon which Cleveland
has acted, a fair and honest
Democrat can come TO no other con-
clusion than that Cleveland hewS TO
the line with more accuracy than any
other president who was ever con-
frouted by the difficult conditions in
which he has found himself.
His administration had a legacy of
an enormous debt made and con-
tracted for by the Republican party
in order to defeat the known designs
of the Democratic administration if it
should come into power, of remodel
ing and lowering the enormous bur
den of the tariff, and then, hardly had
Mr.. Cleveland warmed his seat before
the silver question became an absorb
ing topic absolutely necessary to be
settled. In face OF all this, while he
had a partizan majority in both
branches of congress, it was long
months before congress could convene
in regular session. Already the results
of the false policy of the Republican
party were manifest by the condition
of the country, and we assert, without
fear of truthful contradiction, that the
Republican party Intentionally pro-
duced these results in order to embar-
rass a Democratic administration,
and at the time neither the admin
itration nor the party through their
representatives in Congress were able
to do any thing to relieve the country.
because congress was not III session.
Naturally, any radical change in the
revenue system of the country would
produce business confusion, but in
stead of relieving that just as soon as
congress convened, it was found that
while its Democratic majority were in
favor of tariff for revenue as
q body, many of these general
principle of tariff for revenue
only Democrats were tooth and toe
nail tor the protection of local staN
pie, and upon that rock the Demo-
cratic ship has fastened, swinging
about to all the waves of adverse criti~
cism from its enemies, who planned the
chart by which the party was COM
PEELED to sail.
This is the condition of affairs, and
in all of it the president has stood as
firm and solid as the rock of Gibraltar.
Under such a condition of affairs we
are compelled to say we have very lit
tie respect for the Democracy of the
man who could desert its leader, and
who would add to the confusion by
the policy of one of the
most genuine Democratic presidents
we have ever had.

THE SINGLE LAND TAN
THEORY.

Mr. Post delivered very able lec-
ture in favGl OF the single land tax at
the opera house in this city Saturday
mig t. We had heretofore appre-
hended that the farmers whose lands
would be taxed under this system
for the VIII Die burden OF taxation, both
state and federal, would be the strong
est opponents of the single land tax
theory, but Mr.. Post made it very
plain that taxation under that system
would fall more lightly upon them
then than now, and that, in point Of
fact, that the very valuable town lOt5
would pay the far greater proportion
of taxation. This was illustrated in
answer to m interrogatory made by
one OF his auditors, who suggested
that while he looked upon the system
very favorably, he thought it would
be best not to apply the ad valorem
eystem, because, as in this state, the
owner of the land liked the amount Of
the tax under oath, for this reason the
gentleman thought it would be best to
tax 10y acreage. Mr.. Post replied that
taxation by acreage would be very
unfair and fatal To the benefits to be
derived by the country from the prac-
tical application Of the theory. He
then in turn ask ed if it would be fair
to tax town lot worth thousands of
dollars at she came tax that was laid
upon the poorest piece of land in the
country The latter interrOgatOry
answers itself
The single land tax advocates claim
that the great value of lots in cities
would enable taxation to be at a very
low rate and that these valuable lots
would pay "a very large proportion of
the tax Mr. Post demonstrated the
fact that land values weremade. fixed
and increased by the density of popu-
latiOn aud that the inhabitants of any
locality made the land valuable and
not anything the owner did to it and
that, therefore, the people were en-
titled to the increment arising from
these values. He said that the
single land tax would abolish
all speculation in land and town lots,
an I that all uncccupied land would
be open to settlement by any one who
could use il TO advantage, and what
yer improvements wero made upon
the land would not be taxed and
would be owned absolutely by the
man making them The uncertainty
of tenancy was suggested and the fear
OF the consequent loss Of improve
ments That is obviared by the
practical working of their theory, in
that as long as the tax was paid upon
the land possession was assured, just
as it il now.
Mr.. Poet declared that all wealth
was produced by labor and land and
that land was gift of God free TO all
men, so that they could apply their !

We are very much surprised at the
Fort Worth Gazette in its declaration
that "there is much to he said in
favor Of the government in advancing
money to its people under certain Cir
cumstances, where the security is
based upon good real estate"
In order to do this the government
would either have to become COM

small brokerage or banking system.

but it was veritably a case of survival
of the tittest. The last dam and light
bond was sold last afternoon and
though the enemies of the city not
long since said we could never sell
any OF our bonds we have gone quietly
about our business and sold the whole
million and quarter. There is
