The WAY HENRY GEORGE PUT IT
THE RESULT OF SINGLE TAX Ac.
coRDiNG ToIT ADVOCATE.
Selling Value of Farm and City Lot
Would Diminish Under Proposed
New System.

The people OF Missouri are to vote
on The Single Tax in the November
election A constitutional amendment
is proposed which. if adopted, will
put the Single Tax in force in this
state. The advocates OF this inno-
walton, most OF them from other states,
have raised fund of $4,000 TO have
Missouri try this experiment. Their
ider is that il it succeeds here 1t will
be tried in other states. If il proves
disastrous to the people of Missouri,
then Missouri will be the loser. All
the single takers Of other states stand
to lose is their time and the $4,000
fund they have raised to help carry
the election. With Single Tax all
OF the taxes will come from land alone,
excepting franchise taxes. All build
ings, whether a million dollar office
building in the city or ten dollar
woodshed on the farm, will be exempt.
The great packing house, the factory,
the railroad shop, the store, the mill,
the bank full of money, mortgages
and bonds, will be exempt except for
the bare ground they occupy. In some
instances the ground does not repre-
sent hundredth part of their wealth.
The home owner, the farmer may
say IF single tax comes I'll just
sell my place and go to town."
Here's what Heiry George, the lead.
er of all Single Tax advocates, says
will happen when Single Tax is
adopted:
The selling value Of his lot will
diminish--theoretical it will entirely
disappear" Then how can the farmer
sell?

Jake Baker, S2 years old, a resi- dent of Pine Bluff for more than sixty years, the man who was fa- miliarly known to every man, woman and child as Uncle Baker" and who, during his long residence here, is never known to have had an ill word spoken about him, died yester- day morning at 2:30 o'clock at the home of A. s. Rosenberg, No 12f Walnut street. His death was not unexpected for he had been in feeble health for the past few months.
 Uncle Baker, had the distinction of being one of Pine Bluffs earliest settlers and he was proprietor of the first ice cream parlor and soda fountain ill this city. During the Civil War he displayed ability as a baker trade he learned in Ger many, and for months he provided bread for the Confederate soldiers, being in the Confederate service as a baker.
 In later years he engaged in the furniture Business in this city, being associated with the late F. Dreyfus fer many years, and in recent years he was associated with A. F.

Sfe-iIized Coal.

Coal in the mines is one of the things freest from germs. Old-tlme doctors used to notice coal miners wounds healed fast, though begrimed and besmeared with coal dust. For long time it has been thought that breathing in coal dust caused lung dis eases in miners. Some experts ina fresh coal is as good as sterilized, and say miners have lung trouble because they do not take the trouble to put off their damp and sweaty clothing be- fore going from the mine to their homes, thus taking cold in the open air walk Experts say our miners ought to put on warm and dry clothes at the mouth of the mine But it seems the miners have minds of their own, and although the coal companies in some places fixed up hot and cold water baths and dressing rooms at the mouth of the mines the men would not use them, but went home to wash and dress, as had been their custom for generations.
