The Salvation Army Makes an Appeal for
Aid.


To the Editor of the Eagle.
You no doubt noticed in the past the
good work being done in your city by
the organiza ton known as the Saliva

PAST speak for themselves, We want to
impress upon your minds the fact that
We are still in Wichita and working for
the benefit of your city.
During the past three weeks twenty
four people have been converted in the
meeting, several OF these cases being OF
the most desperate characters which
are now changed into law abiding citi
zens. While We are working hard for
the benefit Of such, we need your help.
We are very much in need of financial
aid to finish the payment on our tent
and start US in for the winter in cur
hall. Will all who are in sympathy
with this grand and glorious work
please let US know in financial way.
Any donations for this purpose will
be gladly received at this Office or All

WE are deluged every mail by Sin
Gle Tax communications with re-
quest that they appear in print. In
fact, ever since the editorial which
appeared in these columns two weeks
ago, there has been in every mail,
complimentary letters from all parts
of the country, many writing at
length on the Single Tax idea. The
Times is not an advocate of the
Single Takers, nor will it allow its
columns to be used for such pur-
pose. What little interest has been
aroused in this section probably
more out of curiosity than anything
else) is already waning, although the
followers of Henry George still hold
their meetings every Saturday night,
and assert they are making converts,
Few of the people of this vicinity
who have listened to the addresses,
are in sympathy with the movement,
while many think it is the greatest
"bOsh" ever talked of Oh our streets.
They have great difficulty in draw
ing a crowd, and those who do at
tend are composed of the same peo-
pie who in all probability would as
semble and applaud any speaker set
ting forth new doctrine that would
promise them much better times.
Their audience is almost entirely
composed of negroes and equally ig-
norant and illiterate whites, to whose
passions they are appealing more
than to any other class of people.
The Sunday Press in speaking of how
the Single Takers work in this State
says:
zone of the favorite methods of
the propaganda is through the letter
writing corps When they visit
a town they take the names of those
who appear to be interested in the |
subject, and who ask questions. The
nature Of the questions is also noted. !
Then these names are sent to a num-
Der of ardent Single Tax apostles
throughout the country and the man
who casually may have asked a ques-
ton, suddenly finds himself deluged
with letters about the Single Tax
from persons he has never heard Of.
If the questioner seemed inclined
to take the ethical side of the case,
his correspondents letters are filled
with arguments showing its justice
from an ethical point of view. Ifthe
questioner is a farmer the cores
pondents claim to show that the re-
form was conceived to Danish all
the troubles of the farmers. And so
the idea is made to fit all conditions
and classes Of men. The officers of
the Single Tax Association assert
that letter writing is a very effective
method of propaganda.
Another method of the Single Tax
Corps of letter writer's, is to deluge
the newspapers Of the State with ar
5icles Many of the editors were
to receive such a number
IF communications and at first con-
GUIDED that their few far away sub
icribers were taking a great interest

Quay the President Maker.

There was only one Convention in
Harrisburg yerterday, and one man
was in control of that Convention
with votes enough to spare to rem
der resistance useless and cOmprom-
Use unnecessary. His name is Mat
thew S. Quay, and his business is
politics.
He will now be able to carry out
his ideas of practical reform within
the party, and those who have re-
Gently been his critics and adverse.
ries will, in a great majority of cases,
fall to and help him. The Republi-
cans Of Pennsylvania like a leader
who shows such energy, endurance,
and marvellous tactical skill as
Quay has manifested throughout
this bitterest of factional fights.
The great mass of the party opposed
to Mr.. Quay are not going to do
anything which will prevent Penn
sylyania from entering the Republic
can National Convention next year,
as she has entered SO many previous
Republican Conventions, to be the
mysterious factor and finally the
arbiter of nominations
This, of course, is what Senator
Quay has been fighting for. He has
fought and won. He can afford to
be generous as to non-essentials, and |
polite and graceful in the conces-
sicns which shall prevent any serious
breach. As matters stand this
morning there is no one man in the
United States whose voice will be
more potent in the wigwam wherein
is to be made the next Presidential
ticket of the Republicans.

Where Business has Improved.

We are indebted to the Depart
ment of State for information that
enables us to learn where business
has improved this year, owing 20 the
enactment Of the German Tariff with
its lower rates of duty on imports
from foreign countries. Some forty
pages of the advance sheets of the
August number of the Consular re-
ports give in detail the exports de-
clared for the United States from
different countries during the quar-
ter ending March 81 1895. 1t is i'm
possible to present all these exports
in detail but we have taken the total
values of each country, comparing
them with the totals for the CORES
ponding quarter in 1894, showing in
each case the increased trade that
has accrued to the different countries
under the German TariG Out of
list of thirty-three different places it
will be seen that in only five of them
have the exports fallen of under she
German Tariff, twenty eight places
selling US more Of their goods, this
year, since the late Free-Trade Con-
gress gave them the opportunity to
do so by lowering our Tariff. The
list in detail with the amount of in
crease or decrease in each case, is as
follows;

A new feature connected with the
international yacht race of next
month for the Americas Cup prize
is thus referred to by the Philadel-
phia Ledger:
"With the Valkyrie III and the
Defender in racing trim and the ap-
pointed day for the first interna-
tional race less than two weeks off,
public interest in the event is grow
ing on both sides of the Atlantic,
So many futile attempts have been
made by foreign yacht owners to re-
gain the Americas Cup that it has
attained a sentimental value out Of
all proportion to its real worth The
English yachts that have heretofore
sailed for it have generally been dis
tinctly English in type, and the
American yachts successfully defend
ing it have always been of American
model generally centre-board yachts.
The Englishmen have usually COM
planned that they have been at a dis
advantage on account of the light
winds prevailing on our coasts dur
ing September The Valkyrie III
was built therefore for light weather.
and more nearly approaches Amen-
can models than any English yacht
that has heretofore sailed in our
races. The Defender was built for
the express purpose of meeting such |
a yacht as the Valkyrie III, ard is
less distinctly American in design |
than her predecessors. The fact is
that the yacht builders of both coun-
tries have learned enough from each
other to modify their plans, and the
result is the production of the two
boats which do not differ radically
from each other.
This will rob the contest of one
feature of interest, which was the
comparison of British and American
types, but it will probably result in
closer races. There are really no
data upon which to estimate the rel
alive speed qualities of the Valkyrie

Kersey says we don't know any

practically an untried boat with us.

EDITOR CHRoNTCLE-Dear Sir -
As there is a special effort being
made to secure the adoption OF the
Single Tax in Delaware, allow me
through your columns to say a word
TO men in your State who are. like
myself, actual tillers of the soil.
Y ears before I ever heard of Henry
George | came to. the conclusion
that it was wrong to tax aud fine
men for improving land and for max
ing it produce more. l saw that
there were but two things we could
tax-land and labor, the passive and
the active factors of production, or
the source of wealth and wealth it
self. saw, too, that many things
escaped taxation that the law re-
quired should be taxed that the hon
est and truthful man had to nav
more than the man who was willing
to lie and to peJure himself But
this was the case only when the pro.
ducts of labor were made the sub
jects Of taxation. If we taxed land
only, and according to its rental
value, no such temptation would be
offered. / was like the old farmer
whose taxes had been raised because
he had painted his buildings and ina
proved the appearance Of his place
"Of course I kicked aud I SAID, by darn
like to know if it's somethiu new.
When teller can't paint his house aud barn
'Thout pawn the town and the painters, too? /
1t don't look fair, aud it don't seem square, |
To hev to pay for the good We do"
Hence | was Single Taxer before
| had read Progress and Poverty.
But let us put the whole matter in
a few lines Smith and Jones own
farms of the same size, with a pub
lie road dividing them, over which
the produce of both farms must 90
to Market Smith is industrious.
Jones is lazy. Smith improves his
farm twice as much as Jones does
his and makes it produce twice as
much. Under the double tax Smith
would pay twice as much taxes as
Jones; but, under the Single Tax.
hey would both pay alike. Under
'he Single Tax Smith would not be
ined for his industry and thrift;
While Jones would have a strong in
iucement to be as energetic as his
leighbor
Remember too, that farming is the
fundamental industry and that what
yer social regulation prospers il
ives prosperity to every other use
al occupation. | challenge any man
o show a single valid objection
gainst the Single Tax.
Respectfully, VIM. CAMM.

To Wool Growers and Farmers.

1t is now conceded on all hands
that the Gorman-B rice-Wilson Tariff
act of August %, 1894, is a failure as
a revenue measure. Under it the
Government, in a time OF peace, is
issuing bonds to meet current ex-
penses. President Cleveland will OF
necessity ask Congress in December
next to pass a bill to increase he
revenue. The present law, with j 3
inadequate duties on farm products
and free wool, is an. invidious and
odious discrimination against the
agriculturists of this country. The
sheep farmers have lost by free wool
more than 100000 in the de-
cline in value Of sheep and wool.
Congress now has the power to in
corporate in any revenue bill that
may be passed provisions for duties
on wool and other farm products, as
amply Protective as the present du.
ties for the most favored of the man
ufaeturing industries. Youare urged
to organize and demand that Con-
gress incorporate in any revenue bill
