chased 76S acres at Duke, including the
town site and improvements. The prop
erty win be divided In forty shares and
appraised. Each member is entitled to
one-fortieth of the present total value
and the division will be left TO the choice
of members, the older members having
first chances. But the value of each share
will be the same. Each member is enti-
tied to a house and garden in the town,
and some five, ten, fifteen or twenty
acres in the vicinity, besides. The single
tax theory is a peculiar doctrine of the
organization, though no reform is advo-
Gated. The members are generally me-
chanics, farmers and business men Of
moderate means. A share must be i'm
proved or its value will not be enhanced
by surrounding improvements. Members

Gambling in Tampa must certainly go.
This is the decision of the municipal ad-
ministration. As a result of this there
were no flashing lights in the halls Thurs
day night, and the click of the roulette
wheel and the rattle of the dice were not
heard. 1t has been the tacit belief since
the change in administration that Tampa
was to be a wide open town. 1t is true
that the administration gave no such as
surance. But the gamblers seemed to
have had faith in the arrangements they
made. Many of them fitted out elegant

stillmore, Ga, oct. 1.-The PopuiIsts Of
Emanuel county have all along been
claiming everything since their nominal
tons, early in the summer. until during
the last few days. They now concede 10
the Democrats a portion of the county
offices at least. The fight seems to be
most exciting over the offices of repre-
sentative, sheriff and tax receiver. while
the other county offices are practically
in the hands of the Democrats. The Pop
ulists are making a purely personal fight
this time, totally ignoring the heretofore
advocated principles OF the Populist party.
This county has always been in the doubt
full column since the organization of the
Populst party, the offices having been
divided at every election except in 1895.
Everybody seems to feel a deep interest
and large vote is expected to be Dolled.
About S,7OO names have been registered
and accepted as legal by the board of ex-

1t is only five months ago, since
June, when the convention of the
Social Democracy of America was
held in Chicago, and yet, how many
things have happened. How many
changes have occurred, and how many
idols overthrown! Each individual
can best answer for and to himself
At that memorable convention, the
forces of armed revolution. thinly
disguised as political actionists," met
the forces of Industrial Socialism,
and were wofully defeated.
1t was, however, a Parthian victory
for the forces of Industrial Socialism.
The shock was too great for many
who could not understand that Social
lists were only human beings and just
as liable to disagree among them
selves as any other mortals.
Accordingly they "took to the
woods" or, in other words, the mem
bership became disheartened and
dropped out.
eff so and so does not behave like
Socialist. who can we trust?" was a
common expression in the letters
which came to the Office of S. d. of
A. in Chicago
Financial difficulties and litigation
instigated by those who bolted, to-
gether with the silence and apathy,
finally caused the suspension of the
"Social Democrat"
This latter event, although we pos
sessed the great majority of the
organization, cut US off from COM
muncation with the members, and
meantime the war was decreasing in
terest in the movement likewise.
AS soon as the suspension of the
paper occurred, and while steps were
being taken to revive it, the writer
decided that the only thing to do that
would revive interest in the organiza-
ton would be to establish colony in
the West
This would revive the tagging in
terest, build up the organization to it's
former strength and power and even
increase its membership and efficiency.
The National Executive Council of
the S. D. of A. met in session several
days and considered matters. Fin
ally the writer was empowered to
start West, and locate colony, and
by unanimous vote he was given full
power to do what in his Judgment APP
peared the best thing to do.
About the first of August the
writer accompanied by Comrade j. S.
ingalls,, left for Denver where con-
ferences were held with the comrades
there, and later extended conferences
with Comrade j. G. De Almond, at his
home in Iris, Col. We found divis-
ionof opinion among the Denver Com
rades, and with Comrade De Almond
we found decided objection to the
selection of that state for colonization,
and an equally strong preference,
backed by good reasons, for the State
of Washington.
We had no desire to force our colon
ization work on the comrades of any
state where they did not want it.
Comrade De Almond made long
journey to investigate certain propo-
sitions which resulted unfavorably.
We found, as result of independ-
ent investigation also, that a colony
located in an interior state would be
the slave of railroad corporation
and so decided to proceed to Wash,
