of other property owners, they
simply propose TO abolish all
taxes except those against land.
In this way they array every sci.
fish interest against landowners,
and seek to turn those who would
otherwise be DIRECTORS into sup
porters.
Then another obstacle arises.
With a constitutional limit on the
rates of taxation, the taxes can
not be raised high enough to con
fiscate rent, nor could enough
revenue to run the government be
raised from land alone. There
fore they propose not only TO
abolish all taxes save land taxes,
but also to abolish all limitations
upon the rates. Then, as Henry
George says, with only one class
of citizens paying taxes, there is
no doubt but that the taxes will
go up and up by various and sun
dry public extravagances until
the whole economic rent is taken.
Such is the plan and the pur-
pose. | have stated the PROPOSE
ton in speech after speech and
debate after debate, and never
has it been said have not stated
it correctly. Their only reply is
an endcavor to deceive the voters
into the belief or hope that maybe
this amendment is not the single
tax.
What would be the effect Of
such a measure in operation?
They say that to tax factories
discourages manufacture. If that
be true, then | say that to ex-
horbitantly tax land will dis
courage agriculture. The effect
would be to make farming and
mining odious. For the plan
would not only take from the
farmer the full economic rent of
his farm, but also from the miner
and mine operator the full
economic rent of the mining prop
erty. The result would be to
drive people, especially young
people, from these fundamental
pursuits into the cities and towns
They would come looking for
jobs, and the great excess of sup
ply of labor thus created must re
suit in a decrease in wages and
salaries. All labor, organized or
unOrganized, should lend their
support only to such measures as
will make farming and mining at
tractive, keeping those there who
are there and drawing more there
who are now i'll the cities compel
ing for jobs and helping hold
wages down.
Another thing, the destruction
of land value would turn invest,
ors from that line of investment
and the small investor would
place his little surplus into indus
, trial stocks. In this manner the
; volume of money, going into the
industrial maelstrom, for the con
troll and use of Wall Street would
be greatly enhanced. ] tell you
f l can not but believe that back OF
t this movement there is a grea'
I power interested in lowering
wages and destroying the lane
p values, so as to force the saving
f of the country into investment
, controlled by the great money
powers.
. Aside from its evil effects, til,

amendments, is vitality wronl

carried the battle to the thirty-sixth
green, and IN the early stages of the
match had Evans trailing several holes.
The Edgewater player had the advan-
tage of being as familiar with the Chi

knowledge helped him.
Several times Wood made shots as he
planned which did not bring the results
