THE SINGLE TAX,

Knapp. l hope his answer may be sat
,isfactory to the Argus readers. Wheth-
er my limited comprehension will be
equal to the emergency is quite unim-

l said and l now repeat. "if Mr..
Knapp has any working models of the
single tax, it is time to set them u2
SO that we may see what they are like. -
Will he do it?
Included in this are two items that
| mentioned and that the gentleman
very carefully avoided any reference
to.
l. How, and by whom is the amount
of the tax, or ground rent. or whatever
it may be called, which is to be paid
into the public treasury, to be ascer

2. How or by whom is this tax &c
be apportioned justly among different
tracts of land in different parts of tbs
country?
Until some reasonable explanation
of these points is furnished any furth
er discussion of the single tax theory
is simply wasted energy. PERSONAL
ties cut no figure just now.

FOR THE WIFE BEATERS

Assistant District Attorney Emmett
Walsh OF Goldfield, Carson raised
boy, has discovered a statute on the
DOCKS that says a wife or woman
beater is liable TO the punishment OF
Delng tied TO post and dashed and
also to bear card wife beater."
The beating OF women in the south
ern camp is getting to be common
occurrence according to the attorney
and hardly day passes that some
offender is not before the bar of ius-
tlce for this ofTense. He insists that
drastic measures must be taken and
recommends that the commissioners
enact an ordinance putting the old
law into effect at Goldfield.

Stocks Still
Remain Low

With the supposed settlement of
the labor troubles at Goldfieid every
one expected an advance in the
stocks OF that district, but instead
there has been a decline, and there
mas been much speculation as to the
cause. 1t now developes that there
IS still trouble existing, but it is be-
I.eved that the matter will be straight
ened out without serious trouble.
When the Goldfield Con. officials and
the miners reached an agreement, a
compact was entered into between
the electrical engineers and the min
ers, whereby each pledged to go out
IN SYM athy with the other in case
OF trouble. The mine-owners object
to such an agreement, and the full
force OF employees has not been put TO
work in the minse. Both sides are
now discussing the matter. No divi-
dend vii be declared by the Goldfield
Con. until every sign OF trouble has
passed and the company is assured
that operations in the mine will be
continuous.
