Henry George.

To those who have read the works of
Henry George his lecture in Cumberland,
Wednesday evening, contained very little
new matter. This not to the discredit of the
distinguished lecturer, for Single Tax is really
not wide field for the play of exclusive
thought.
1t is evident Mr.. George, confessedly
great author was not trained for platform
deliverances. His effort was, therefore, in
no sense an oratorical one. The matter was
automatic the delivery conversational, and
each, while entertaining, was not impressive.
A great portion of his time was taken by
questioners, two or three of whom PROFOUND
ed but two germane inquiries.
Altogether, MIR. Georges appearance was
the interesting event of the week

"A Chicken Come Home to Roost.

The funniest incident of recent occurrence
is contained in the appended dispatch from
Philadelphia, March 25:
The Knights of Labor in this city have
just disposed of a strike in their own ranks.
Last Thursday the five printers employed on
the Knights of Labor Journal. which is pub
lished here, demanded back wages. They
had been working on short time since
February, and claim that the smallest sum
due any one of them was $50. Their de-
mand was refused, whereupon the foreman
resigned and three of the men struck. The
local Typographical Union took up their
cause and to-day the strikers We're paid in
full and discharged.
Which, being interpreted means that one
labor organization had to protect its mem
bers from the oppression of another,
Moreover, that the Noble Order of Dis
united Knighthood of Laborious North
American Nobility had to put three con-
stituents of similar concern on "the dam
nable blacklist"
And now each is looking viciously up the
others pants to see which has the blacklist

The JOURNAL has letters disappearing its
Single Tax comments of March 0 from James
d. McDadc Pittsburg, Pa; ii. NJ. Holmes,
Detroit Mich; J. X. Hermann. Rowley,
Iowa: Theodore J. Werner, East Orange, n.
j., Peter Schwander, Houston, Texas, and
J. Semmes DevecmOn, of Cumberland, Md.
In time it is hoped space will be found to
accommodate all-except the lengthy ones.
Of those, however, final judgment is de-
ferred.
1t is also confidently expected that one
short, brief, sharp reply will dispose of a
medley of objections that are founded upon a
side issue-not the main one.
The JOURNAL believes that Single Tax will
come with or very shortly before the millen.
UNI.
And the Messianic theory of the advent of
that suspicious period is-it will come, not at
different times, nor in spots, but at once and
all over.
1t would be just as fair, therefore, to argue
the JOURNAL out of its faith in the final per-
lection of things as to make it appear that its
disbelief in the intermittent and sporadic
nature of Single Tax is skepticism of the
virtue and ultimate efficacy of Single Tax.
Hence, we believe that the very unfair
premature and therefore abortive attempt To-
illustrate the feasibility of the system in the
narrow limits of Hyattsvile Md, did the
cause of Single Tax infinitely more harm
than good.
Hyattsville was and is no more ready for the
millennium than the whole State of Maryland.
Take lesson from the Double Takers
Under the guise of re-assessment they are
seeking to equalize the Double Tax-no
singly for Hyattsville or Pompey Smash-bui
for the entire State
So. gentlemen, get fully ready for the con-
quest of Canaan then coup and possess the
land"

A Wide Difference.

"A N1Oe D1nerenCe.
Under date Of March 20 j. Semmes Devec-
mon, of Cumberland, writes
In your issue of March 8 you state there are,
as far as you know, no parties in Frostburg
who favor Single Tax.
was in town couple weeks ago and found
several and they STATE that it is their intention
to soon form Single Tax club in your city.
One man, when | asked him if there were
any Single Tax men in Frostburg, said
"Why, Oder's one himselfn'
send you the enclosed as an answer to
your criticism of the Baltimore Nevs. 1t may
prove interesting to your readers if you will
publish it.
The JOURNAL did not say there are, so far
as we know, no parties in Frostburg who
favor Single Tax"
1t did say that ''if there are people up in
Allegany county who advocate that system
of raising funds for the support of the
municipal governments of Frostburg and
Homecoming" the JOURNAL has not before
heard of them.
Believing, as elsewhere stated, that local
option tests of Single Tax are impracticable,
it was not question whether there are Single
Takers in town or not, but whether the town
is ready for adopting the system.
mat II Is not Is very certain.
About the easiest enterprise started in this
town is "a club"
In fact, it is only little more difficult than
natural death-the usual fate of "a club"
The leafet sent is no answer at all. u re-
plies to the feasibility or infeasbility of Single
Tax in countries, the Journal to the same
alternative in toTns.
For instance
How will the application of u Just system of
taxation in one country work" while the
present unjust taxes are continued by other
countries ?-Leafet.
Now look on this:
Hence. such experiments in small spots
like 'Hyattsvllle and Middletown" are
necessarily failures.-JoURNAL.
If Mr.. Devecmon should recognize no
difference between the application of any tax
system in countries as wholes and in towns
as fractions, his oversight will be IN line with
his reckless habit ofthinking that "all things
are possible" only to those christians who
love Single Tax.

Social Ethics.

After all, the prime element in social
equality is congeniaity.
And congeniality may be founded on
wealth, intellect, politics, and even the ac-
cidents of birth.
There are other bases of affinity-so many
altogether ''that man is known by the
company he keeps"
Even among insects, says Coleridge, "the
social affinity is one of volition rather than
choice"
fit be, therefore, matter of natural
selection" it ought also to be one of natural
exclusion.
So that when Virginia governor revolts
at the idea of entertaining Massachusetts
negro legislator at his table he ought to be
allowed to express without protest both the
social prerogatives with which God has Ell .
dowed even the insect
So also should we tolerate without the
slightest demurrer the announcement of a
Frostburg republican who says he ''cannot
run on ticket with democrat"

A Little Matter ofBadness.

The present 0ariff) law is bad enough in
all conscience, but it is not quite as iniquit-
Gus as the democratic majority in the House
tried to make it.-Cumberand Ne~s
bad enough in all conscience" is pretty
sweeping condemnation.
And yet its average rate is only about per
cent. less than that of the Mckinley Act.
1t is far above the protection Act of 1888 in
rate, under which protectionists say the
country prospered as it never prospered be-
fore.
Hence, if we are suffering now, as the
Ners contends, it is under the highest pro-
tective rate, save one, the country ever had.
On this topic the Ners should be called off
