1t was Jas. Henry Wilson who
saved us alive last Saturday.
We had no idea that our better
three-fourths would come to the
circus, and was fixing to pull off
a large slice of hilarity. We
were just in the act of pushing
down a squirrel load when Mr..
Wilson rushed in breathlessly
and informed Us that a dark
haired woman had arrived on
the scene with q wild look in her
eyes. This gave us time to hide
our dynamite, and by the time
the cyclone struck us we were
perusing a copy of the Pilgrims
Progress.
If Henry Wilson ever runs
for President, we know of one
vote he will get.

CONFESSES PART
Millionaire Admits He Has
Made Fortune by Robbing
the People.
REFORMING HIMSELF NOW
Joseph Fels Of Philadelphia Will De-
vote Remainder of Life to End
ing Bad System

The spectacle OF a millionaire telling
his hearers that he made his millions
by robbing the people, that all monop-
oiies do, but that he had begun to re-
cover his conscience and was going to
devote his wealth to fighting the sys-
TEN which made It possible, was the
unique entertainment provided by the
City club OF Chicago at its luncheon
the other day. The speaker was Jo-
seph Feis Of Philadelphia, head of a
soap company. He said he was a
disciple Of Henry George and would
always remain a Single Taxer.
"Yeu Are All Doing IT,"
1--WE can't get rich in lifetime now
adays," Mr.. Fels said, under the pres
emit system OF things unless we do so
by robbing the people. 1 have made
my money that way, and my firm is
still doing 1t. You are all doing 1t.
Every one of your self made million
aires has done it. However, 1 want to
say ] have begun to recover my con-
science, and am going to devote my
'swag'-I like to cali it that, for that's
what it is-to doing away with the
cursed system which makes it possible.
"n any of your mIllionaires feel the
same way about It, for Gods sake let's
cross hands on it. I may be an oddly.
1t is unusual, though, for man who
has made his money by robbing the
people through a monopoly to be called
q curiosity. It is also a curiosity to
ind a man after nearly fifty years of
mountaineering to admit it and
undergo a change Of heart But 1 am
sincere"
How are you getting rid of your
robber wealth p Mr.. Fels was asked. .
For one thing he replied, 81 am
interested In spreading the single tax
propaganda throughout the world. The
movement is active in the United
States, England, Canada, South Aus
tralia, New Zealand, New South Wales,
Denmark, Sweden and other nations.
Wants All to Have an Equal Chance.
IF we had an educational fund OF
81, 100000 a year we'd upset the world
in twenty years as to economic condi-
tons. 1 will be one of twelve to sup
ply the funds.
II intend to use my money to force
into use land that is being held for the
Increment. I do not believe In specu-
lating in land values. 1t is an enor-
nous swindle. AS a business man
and landowner / have taken advan-
tage Of monopolies which private own
ership of lands gave me. lands which
rightfully belong to many instead Of
the few. Perhaps / would have made
a fortune despite the laws, but 1 want
to bring into operation conditions OF
equal manhood, conditions under which
all have an equal chance"
Mr.. Feis said he did not mean that
he and Rockefeller and Morgan and
Carnegie had been personally dishcn-
est In the accumulation Of their for
tunes.
John D. Rockefeller" he continued,
sis mild, harmless man with a mis-
taken ideal, but personally honest
None the less he is a robber."
