SINGLE TAX AND FREE sPEECH.

+ Much has been said of the arrest of Mr.
3. &. Tuttle. ose of the Single Tax advo
Gates, by The bailiff of Middietown on Sat
urday evening last. He was arrested TO
blocking the streets and put in the towr
lookup until Alderman Ferguson could b,
found which was only few minutes. per
haps ten. There are two sections of the
Town Ordinances, under either Of which
Mr.. Tuttle could have been arrested. They
are:
s'Section 4. All persons obstructing any
crossing, sidewalk, or street in any man
ner or form, shall be subject to fine Of
one dollar and cost for each and every Of
fence.n
Section 10 All drunkenness and profane
swearing, all crowds on the payements
vacant places or streets, within the town
disorderly persons will be held liable to ar
rest and penalty Of three dollars and costs
for each and every ofense.n
Mr.. Tuttle was evidently disobeying the
town ordinances in that he was talking te
crowd at the intersection of the main
streets of the town, at Prettyman's corner
which are hard enough under favorable con
ditions to keep clear on Saturday evenings
when the people come to town to do their
shopping. Mr.. Tuttle was taken before
Justice Ferguson. but the Town Fathers
after consultation agreed not to prose cute
the charge provided there should be no
further blocking of the streets. The Single
Takers then returned to the Plaza and
there talked Of free speech and their pecul-
lar doctrines.
1t looks as though Mr.. Tuttle violated the
ordinance on purpose to getthe sympathy
OF the crowd and hearing. The Single
Takers rented Howell's store rooms only a
square from the centre of the town but not
being able to carry the crowd with them
there they gave up the building. They
seek to harangue the crowd, and very
much to the disgust of the merchants,
trade people and clerks, because just at
what should be closing time, the delayed
purchase is to be made by the Single Tax
listeners. The same consideration should

other people, mo more and no less. Their
cry of free speech" should not protect
them in the maintenance of a Duisance or
in the violation of town ordinance, nor
on the other hand should their peculiar
doctrine subject them to treatment differ
ent from other people. The law should be
upheld, and the officers of the law also in
fair and proper enforcement oflaw.
The Single Tax people are mild fanatics.
1t is said that their missionaries will quiz
servants as to the wages they are receiving
and that it matters not what the wages
may be the promise of twice that amount
of wages is invariably made "ifwe only
had the Single Tax" They are certainly
persistant in forcing their arguments upon
people, entering business places and insist
ing that their theories must then and
there be discussed. They seek notice and
and the arrestion Saturday night
was evidently to their liking.

HERE IS THE HONESTY.

We said some weeks ago that sstbe
Democratic Senators are indeed trying
to talk the DUPONT matter to DEATH -
This assertion appears to have hurt
some of our Democratic friends and
among them the SUSSEX Countian which
answers US with such pleasant Pick
wickian humor. We thought, perhaps
We are too innocent, that it is because
the Democrats hope 10 kill the du-
Pont matter politically that they have
talked SO much about it. We have
told already how Senator George
talked for three days, the report OF his
speech taking as much as five full is
sues of the TRANSCRIPT. Reference
to the Congressional Record shows
how Senator Turpie began the long
talks with frequent delays. On March
9th after talking only little over an
hour he said II ask the Indulgence Of
the Senate to conclude my remarks to-
morrow (p.2908). On the ssmorrown
our own Senator Gray interrupted Mr..
Turpie's speech to s.move an executive
session" (p.2056). On March 13 when
the matter came up for consideration
it was delayed, s'went over" by re-
guest of Senator Harris, a Democrat as
all our readers know. On March 81
the discussion had reached Mr.. George
when after long talk be complained
OF being exhausted and requested that
the matter 60 over. OF course s.sena-
torial courtesy carried it over. and |

tors SO desire, Republicans or Demo-
Gratis, that is way they have in the |
