THOSE who have peaches aud are
anxious to sell them should get at
least fifty cents basket for them.
There is not more than half as many
peaches this year as two years ago
and there is not any reason why they
should not pay fully half dollar a
basket. Those who sell now for
even this price may regret it a month
hence when buyers from ali over the
country assemble here and begin
paying big prices for good fruit. We
do not see why peaches will not bring
fifty cents easily and we certainly
would not advise growers to sell for
less than this We have looked into
the prospects, considered the size of
the crop, etc, and we thoroughly be-
lieve good fruit will bring very far
prices, indeed, but not fancy prices.
The crop is not more than half that
of two years ago and the country is
in better condition now than then.
Considering all things, about fifty
cents basket can be expected for
good fruit during the season.

TO prevent the price demanded for

or 70 enable every one who desires
to to own his own home. By ex-
tempting factories. houses. merchants
stocks and other labor products from
taxation, the production of all of
these and their location in the place
adopting this policy is stimulated.
by putting the taxes thus removed
from industry and enterprise upon
the value of all land regardless of all
improvements thereon, production
ot wealth aud demand for labor is
still further stimulated, as then the
owner of a valuable unused piece of
land will pay as much taxes IS the
owner of an equally valuable piece
of land which has been fully i'm
proved, aud thus the first named
owner will find it to his interest to
improve his land also in order that
he may derive a revenue therefrom
to nay his taxes,o it for any reason
he shoald not feel disposed to do this
he will let some one else do so. in
either case the production of wealth
and demand for labor will be in
creased and the whole community
benefited
The single tax would also i'm
mensely benefit the farmers not only
in increasing the purchasing power
Of the workers in the cities, but in /
relieving them OF a great load oftax-
alton since the value of farm land is 4
very little in comparison with the /
value OF city lots, and in the case of
many farms after the value of all i'm
proyements have been deducted no
value at all viii remain and the
owners of such farms consequently
would not be taxed at all. This is

IT is hoped the Pennsylvania rail
road will this year fit up cars enough
to carry to market the peach crop.
Two years ago the crop was under
estimated and in the heighth of the
season there werenot cars enough to
move the crop, as result of which
many thousands of baskets of
peaches rQtted upon the trees. The
railroad company have probably prof
tied by the experience Of two years
ago, however, and this year no com.
plant IS anticipated from this score.
The rate to all points is the same on
peaches as two years ago, that is
forty-eight and a half cents a hun
dred to jersey City, in car lots, and !
proportionately to all other points. |
Nine dollars and seventy cents ton
for haul of one hundred and ninety |
miles is an enormous price to pay

EDITOR CHRoNICLE-Dear SIR
[ see in your issue OF June J 4th YOU
say in reference to proposed cam
paign of education in behalf of the
single tax to be carried on in your
State, that If it has anything good in
it there Is indeed a good chance of
success in Delaware. | would there
fore like to call your attention to the
great amount Of good contained in
the single tax The single tax means
the abolition of all taxation on in.
dussry or the products of industry
and The raising Of all public revenue
by a single tax upon the value of
land irrespective of improvements.
BY this means the checks and bur
dens upon the production Of wealth
imposed by the present system of
taxation will be removed. 1t is a
well established fact that the taxa (
tion of anything produced by labor
restricts the quantity Of the thing
taxed and under our present system
we foolishlv tax and thus limit the
quantity of the very things we would
ike to have as much as possible.
Thus every community would like
o have as many factories as posi-
'le settled in their midst, they would
Ike to have as many merchants with
5 large stock as possible, they would
Ike to have enough dwelling houses
nd other buildings to accommodate
be population and make COMPETE

purports to be an interview with
United States Ambassador Eustis
of France, in which that gentleman
is made to say several things of
much interest to americans. The
interview is probably a faxed one
but nevertheless the sentiments ex.
pressed are those held by Ambassa-
dor Eustis, as he is known to be an
American to the backbone; the di-
rect opposite of the United States
Ambassador across the English
Channel-he who halls from our own
little State of Delaware. Mr. Eustis
says in this interview that nothing
has been decided regarding his car
didacy for the Presidency of the
United States.
Speaking Of the war between
China and Japan. Mr. Eustis is re-
ported as saying that he greatly adj |
mired the japanese aad regretted
very much that they had not taken
Pekin.
Regarding Cuba, Mr. Eustis is al
legged to have said the sympathies of
the Americans were in favor of the
insurgents, who found in the States
without the knowledge of the gov
eminent, assistance of ever kind. I'll
