Single Tax Contests.

The contests at there polls are, as
a rule, on absolute single tax lines and
of great educational value. Here, as
everywhere, the name of single tax
is very unpopular, though the Seldom

and is unalterable, even opposition
demanding more land tax in many
cases now. The steps are (1) aboli-

The next step was in 1893 when all

Large Property Changed Hands

Last Monday, James Lewis
negotiated the sale of the c.
A. Finsky place to Stephen
Merrick. Mr.. Merrick is a
comparatively new arrival in
this county, having come to
Benton some three or four months
ago from Osceola, Neb. At
present he is living at Philomath,
where he has his family domicil-
ed.
The place Mr.. Merrick has
purchased is situated adjoining
the big prune orchard of the
Benton County Prune Company
near Granger, half way between
this city and Albany. The farm
is very choice sort of cream-of
the-valley kind-and contains
| $50 acres. The negotiations for
it were commenced last Saturday
and concluded on Monday. 1t
was cash transaction and $I6, !
900 changed hands.
This is fine place beyond a
doubt. IF the weather continues
favorable the prospects are there
will be in the neighborhood Of
1900 bushels of wheat and
3, 900 bushels of oats on the farm
this year. Besides this, it is
estimated that there will be
something like 90 tons of hay
produced. This buy and the
price paid indicates that land is
increasing in value in this coun.
ty.
Mr.. Merrick is reputed to be
a very well-to-do man. He still
owns 400 acres of land in Ne
braska. He is quite an enter

cation and pleasing address. II

Significant FIaht in indiana.

Indianapolis, November 4.-The enact- ment of the last general assembly of the cities and towns bill which length ened the term of the mayor of Indian- apolis to four years, together with the issue of cheap gas, track elevation and civic reform, has lent peculiar significance to the municipal campaign which was practically brought to a close tonight after one of the liveliest three-cornered con- tests ever waged In this city.
 The republican candidate for mayor, ex- Mayor Charles A. Bookwater and the present democratic incumbent, John w. Holtzman, who defeated Bookwalter in the election two years ago, have con- ducted campaign of unusual bitterness while the prohibitionists have been equal ly active in the endeavor to elect George IIitz on a platform synonymous of the principles of the party. The socialist la- bor candidate, Theodore Bernin, has put forth no pronounced efforts.

There are two tickets in the field, that of the fusion party headed by Joseph T. O'Neal and the democratic ticket led by Paul c. Earth, candidate for mayor.
 The registration was unusually large for an off year and this fact combined with the fusionists disregard of party lines in selecting their candidates makes impos- sible anything like accurate forecast.

 On this platform Lieutenant Governor Curtis Guild, Jr., was nominated for gov ernor and Eben S. Draper of Hopedale. a prominent manufacturer. was named for lieutenant governor. The democrats. however, went further than their oppon- ent and demanded the abolishment of the tariff on hides, lumber, woodpulp and other commodities. at the same time lend- ing their support to pronounced re- ciproca trade movement with Canada.
