ASKED TO EXPLAIN.

The Los Angeles Times" asks Mr..
Mcguire to explain. 1t says:
Somebody is sending out from San
Francisco, under the Congressional
frank Of Hon. James G. Mcguire, a
pamphlet containing speeches deliv-
cred by Mr.. Mcguire in the House Of
Representatives of the United States,
on January II, 1894, October IS and II,
1858, August %, 1898, and August 20,
1898. These speeches all advocate the
single tax on land as a universal
panacea for all our commercial indus
trial and social ills.
Mr.. Mcguire has stated in one of his
speeches that the single tax is not an
issue in this campaign. If this be true,
how is it that this single-tax literature,
four and five years old, is being dis
tributed among the voters of the
State at this time?
The "Record-Union" week ago
pointed out that chapter from Henry
Georges works is having circulation by
grace Of Mr.. Maguire's frank, purport-
ing to be speech delivered in Con-
gress by Mr.. Mcguire February 10.
1898. That the document treats Of
nothing else whatever but the single
tax, extracts from which paper we
presented to establish the conclusion
drawn that the single tax is an issue,
that Mr.. Mcguire has affirmatively
made it an issue, and that the Demo-
cratic platform specifically approves it
as an issue in plank calling for the
projection Of another constitutional
amendment by the coming Legislature.

opinion that Mr.. Cogart had not been
dealt fairly with and it was a spirit of
fairness on the part of our people that
made them rejoice when he was remem-
bered.
An accident occurred this morning at
the stable of Mr.. w. Duke that came
near costing two of our citizens their

Rev. J. Il. Bagwell preached two unusu-
ally able sermons in the Methodist
church here yesterday. 1t has been sell
dom that two as strong, simple and
thoughtful sermons have been heard
here. He is a preacher of great force,
and forceful because he thinks.
The Democrats of Wilson will present
the name of Col. ID. Worthington as the
man to nominate for judge of the
criminal court in the Eastern district.
He is good lawyer. a man of expert
ence. having been a legislator for many
years. Solicitor of this district for six
years. and was one of "the bravest of
the brave" in the Confederate army. He
would make n spledid candidate and an
excellent Judge one in whom innocence
would find a faithful protector and the
guilty a fearless, yet merciful, foe. He
is the man to defeat the radical but in
consistent Sutton.

come over from Elm City. where he
attended the District Conference of the
Methodist church. DIR. Kilgo has many
strong friends and admirers in Wilson
