Harpers' Weekly is among the
latest of the influential journals Il
declare for the single tax. In its
issue Of August 81 it comments on
the increase of taxes on New York
millionaires and the injustice oi
personal property levies, becauee OF
the impossibility of reaching the
very wealthy, and adds:
"There is in truth but one tax
which cannot be evaded, and which
distributes itself with accuracy
among men according to their abil-
ity to pay, and that is the tax on
land. 1t is q great pity that the
nationality and justice of the "sin.
gle tax" have been brought into
question by the crazy schemes that
have been appended to it, but of
which, in principle, it is quite indie.
pendent"
Since Harpers' Weekly does not
specify the crazy schemes, it is rea-
sonable to assume that they are the
schemes Of enemies Of the single
tax who persist in tacking on it
every dire disaster as q result of a
simple and righteous reform. Let
us warn tho writer of the foregoing
editorial not to promulgate the sin
gle tax as one upon land, but on
land values. This, to the uninitia-
ted, may appear a trivial distinc-
ton to make, but it is Of the great.
est importance, especially il we
would avoid the crazy schemes
constantly attributed to the single
tax.-National Single Tarer.

The Palmetto & Gulf R.R.

at New Iberia for the purpose OF
building railroad from Palmetto,
on the Texas & Pacific and along
Bayou Teche. The officers Of the
new company are: James A. Lee,
President, Emile Q. Roger, Vice.
President; Andrew Thorpe, Secre-
tary. The projected route is for
the purpose OF giving railway CON-
munication to Breaux Bridge to
which right.of way has been given.
We learn that the proposed road will
not touch eitherWa WashiDgton or Ope-
