Effort To Be Made to Capture the State
I'm the Next Eighteen Months.
New York Sun


Single takers announce that they mean
10 make a strong effort 10 capture the
state OF Delaware within the next eigh-
teen months. Il has long been a favorite
notion with the m pre- enthusiastic single
takers that a concerted effort for the re-
alization Of their idea should be made in
one of the small states Rhode Island
and Delaware have been mentioned in the
discussion OF the subject most often, and
Delaware has at length been fixed upon as
the field OF experiment The single tax
ers will undertake 10 elect in the autumn
or 1895 a legislature that shall provide in
1897 for a single tax on land values as
the method OF raising revenues for the
state.
The campaign has already begun. and
speakers are going 10 all parts OF the
state TO discuss the single tax Before the
people Uniformed agitators In top boots
and armed with knapsacks containing
single tax documents will canvass the
state. and there will be several meetings
weekly from nov until the election next
year, The more enthusiastic single tax
ers have talked Of raising a fund Of SO 90

been some foolish boosting that sounds III

TIDE LAND STREETS.
Some OF the Difficulties Caused by the
Two PlafS.

The committee OF the city council having
IN charge the question OF the tide fats
and the proposed vacation OF streets un-
der the old pIa,s were In session yesterday
for nearly three hours. The chair was oc
cupisd by Alderman Lovejoy. and the 9TH
or members present were Alderman elise.
President Crichton and Delegates James,
and Little. Cooperation Counsel Scott,
city Engineer Thomson. ex-Judge Greene.
ex-Judge Wood. Andrew F. Burleigh and
T. p. Rawson represented various inter
est and d. A. Mackenzie and Thomas
prosch. as former members OF the board
OF appraisers. watched the proceedings.
Judge Greene addressed the committee
at some length, although the proceedings
were in the nature OF a conference. ana
he was asked many questions as 20 the
various legal problems that might follow
the recognition by the city Of the apprais-
ers plat and the vacation Of streets as
petitoned for. The points covered were
the extent of the power Of the city 10 ex-
tend streets across the tide fats under the
constitutional right 10 frame a charter;
the extent Of the liability OF the city in
maintaining Its presnt street plating af-
ter rights had been acquired by purcnas-
ers from the state: the liability of the
city for the filing in Of the streets, and
the best method OF facilitating the settle
nent Of title without involving the city in
later litigation.
Judge Greene believed that some OF the
questions would have TO be determined by
the courts, and ne advised against pass
age Of any ordinance recognizing the ap-
praisers' plat but he thought that many
OF the streets might be vacated where
there was no opposition.
Judge Wood urged the council not 10
leave the matter TO lawsuit which must
take considerable time, but vacate streets
where by inquiry .hcy could learn no vest
cd right might seem 10 have accrued.
3fr. RaWson took the position that the
city having laid out streets under a grant
of power. the board Of appraisers was re-
quired to make lots and blocks conform
to those streets. He was subjected TO
questioning by Mr. Scott with view to
bringing cut before the committee an
swers 10 the argument OF Judge Greene.
and was followed Sy the latter. who went
over some of his points in reply TO Raw
son.
Mr.. Hochbrunner submitted that the ef-
feet OF the appraisers plat would be TO
destroy the water front as a commercial
property throughout North Seattle.
The committee decided to take the mat
ter under advisement and meet at the
call of the chair.
