WANTS THE EARTH.

Rather strange desire for sim
gle taxer-but he is a Nebraska man,
and this doubtless accounts for the
paradox. This is the letter:
Editor Independent: / am very
much interested in the coming Single
Tax Edition. write you to beg that
some one having a standing as sim
gle tax writer or a speaker be placed
| in editorial charge of the issue. II |
knew that an ideal copy would be
golten out, / would spend all the
| money in the house for extra copies.
Il care be not taken 'stuf" may get
into the paper that will do the cause
more harm than good. II may judge
by their comments on articles ap-
rearlng in The Independent neither
the editor nor assistant editor is
qualified to edit the edition. Please
lei me make this suggestion If you
edit it yourself: Reproduce articles
from the best writer's on the subject
rather than new articles from ordi-
nary writer's. | shall send something
short and hope we may make ar
range.nents for single tax column.
before you took charge of it because
its space was filled by the communi-
cations of men from whom one could
learn nothing. II / hear from you as
to who is to edit this edition l. will
see what can do to distribute a lot
Of them. f. B. SPACKMAN.
Fullerton, Neb.
perhaps Mr.. Spackman wants a
single taxer to operate the linotype,
a single taxer to make up the forms,
etc. There will in strictness be no
"editor" except the contributors-and
if single takers, such as Shandrew,
Hill, Freeland, Clark and others, not
to speak Of Bolton Hall, Swinney and
others from whom The Independent
expects to receive articles, if these
men need an editorial censor to pre-
vent them from writing something
that will do the cause more harm
than good"-then the cause Is in a
bad way.
Whether or not the editor or as
sistant editor is qualified to "edit the
edition" is a matter of no partic-
ular moment. Mr.. Spackman is en-
titled to his opinion as to that. Ap-
parently he has reached such a high
plane OF intellectually that there is
just one man" from whose writing he
can learn anything-and the initials
OF that man are: e. B. Spackman.
Single takers themselves are by no
means united upon the proper method
OF treating for example, the railroad
question under the single tax, and
both the editor and the associate edi-
tor may be pardoned if they refuse
to swallow the single tax pill at a
gulp, without any attempt at mastica-
tion. 1t is very likely that the Henry
George Edition will be by no means
"ideaf' in the eyes of Mr.. spack-
man-because other single takers will
nave hand in preparing it, but The
Independent has faith to believe that
they at least will be pleased with it.

Editor Independent: A copy of The
Independent. April 8, came to my no.
tice through courtesy of the editor of
the Syracuse Democrat; he has my
gratitude. 1t is both refreshing and
encouraging to know that there is
now and then such an able, fearless
and well-conducted paper in Ne5ras-
ka, and if it could be placed in every
home in the state, political degener-
acy would take an upward trend and
real democracy would soon secure the
state from the hands of economic
spOilatiOn and plunder by special in
terests, SO clearly manifest in the
course pursued by the legislative ses-
sion just closed. The paper, as a
whole, has a very wholesome senti-
ment, while its editorial trinity of
attributes, liberality, patriotism,
courage, make it a valuable educator.

to give place for single tax agitation.

thought that it will be known just what

favor of the federated body, but the
members Of the switchmens' union are
holding out a little longer in order that
they may more carefully consider the
that they will see the advisability of all
departments working together, and
taking UP the grievances that one of
the separate organizations may now
have. or be called vi on to consider in
