suDEllL AND HIS LETTERS.
There is behind the defeat 1f uhe
Single Tax assessment blil In the SEN
ate. chapter OF unwrlttenl history
which is another demonstration OF the
saying that man had better walk
a hundred miles than write letter.
Harold sudell, the leading Single Tax
er Of New CASTLE, sent a letter to a
Regular Republican member asking
him to support the Hushabeck bin
and calling his a'ttcnti-n to the fact
that the Single Takers helped to de-
feat the Democrats last Fan and were
deserving Of that much Of a reward or
their services THAT letter fell into
the hands OF the Democratic members
cf The Senate, and when they read IL
it made them so mad that they were
not long iu determining what the fate
Of the bin shou,d be. This is the text
Of the letter:
New Castle, Del. ist mo- 81. 80.
Phillip Churchman. Esq
Dear Sir. ! have written Mr.
Hayes this evening asking him to
speak 10 you in regard to a bill In
which l am interested, but since writ
ing him have thought best to write
you dircyt.
The bin is the one introduced by
Representative Hushebeck to amend
iko method OF assessing real estate by
separating the Improvements from the
land values
The bill is a clean, honest one, and
there should be MO objection TO Il. II
wiz, however. put us cine Single Tax
ers) In q position to get what we have
hitherto only guessed at, viz: the pro-
portion the land values OF the state
bear to the improvements. We think
thase figures win help our case
"But l find there are among the
Regulars scme who oppose the bin.
/ probably because the Single Takers
waat it-for / can see no other rea-
SON
"Might ask that yon will reason
with thsse parties showing them Qf no
ether argnment will reach them) that
their action Is a mistake from a po-
htical standpoint
"The Single Tax strength has been
almost altogether drawn from the
Democrats. ami ilus our agitation has
indireotiy aidel the Republicans. This
bii-w which In MO way ties the Repub-
lIcans no to the Single Tax heresy-
wiz, unless we are all at sea, help our
cause and will Thus stil further aid
tho Republicans. In view Of these facts.
10 seems POOR policy for any Rerubli-
can to oppose this b.ll and there Is
absolutely nothing wrong in the bin
All 81 does Is TO have the assessor
make hfs assessment IN a clearer way,
and II this aids us We are entitled to
that aid. Am / not right. and will you
