were also several Single Takers In the
audience, and they asked questions Of the
speakers some being answered and Others
not While Mr. Gessner was speaking he
referred to tho Homestead mills, which in
ten years had Increased in value $50, O00-
0a0. He wanted to know Of his Single
Tax friends how this was done.
Every invention Is throwing men out of
work, and impoverishing thousands.
While this Ia going on the poor classes are
eating up the the middle classes, the
grocers and merchants. As soon AS this
class gets to see the matter in this light
they will DO with the laboring men. The
middle class has to pay for all bought
from the trusts. They sell to the work
ingmen who have no money to pay for the
food and supplies. The Social is don't

The speaker concluded by saying that

THE disfranohising Of several Rspubli
cans by the Levy Courts Of Kent and Sus-
sex counties, won't save the State to the
Democracy this year, The men who paid
poll tax last year, and they are numer-
Gus, will be able to vote at the coming
election. Such disreputable means will
not carry the State for Ebe w. Tunnel
and L. Irving Handy. The tide has
changed and nothing the Democrats who
control the election machinery can do can
possibly save the State Their cries and
pleadings are pitiful to hear. Even Ebe
w, came all the way to Wilmington to try
and win Peter j. Ford over TO him and the
cry has gone up from Sussex for Ford to
save them. They did not think Of that
fact when Tunnels friends slaughtered
Ford at the nomination. Ford is II Demo-
crat, and no doubt will support the ticket,
but he can't control his friends and they
are numerous in Wilmington.

domestic episode the text of severe com

they search the house thoroughly. The
poor man may be peacefully sleeping

Who Has That Money!

We showed last month that the shrink
age in values Of farm products since
1873 has been S30O,OOO,0O0 a year, max
ing a grand total in twenty-three years
Of $6,900,0O0,00O. We believe, really,
that it has been far more than this.
Now who has that money?
1t ought to be in the farmers pocket
or in bank to his credit, or should have
been available to pay off the farm
mortgage, to roof the barn, to educate
the children, to make old age comfort
able and free from anxiety and debt.
But where is it; who has 1t; how did
they get it; how did the farmer lose it?
Will you, gentle reader, see how much
Of it you have; feel in your pockets and
scan your bank account; see il the mort
gage is cancelled; take note OF your pros
perity.
Who has that money?
Inquire of the local merchant il he has
it; is he getting overly rich?
Ask the doctor, the blacksmith, the
carpenter, the hired man, il they have
seen IT?
Inquire at the local bank and ascertain
il it be stored there, and even Of the
retired capitalist, and learn il his Golfers
are running over.
None Of these have it, but, like your
self, mourn because they have it not.
1t is somewhere; somebody has it; and
we want you to find out who has it and
where it is.
For the fellows that have it are now
waiting for your crops to grow this very
year, for whatever they bring above what
they cost you, will be theirs to keep.
This is fair subject Of inquiry and we
trust you will be able to find out
Who has that money!-FGrm Journal.
