The advocates OF the colossal theft
called Single Tax are trying 20 mlalsad
the owners az homes into voting against
their own interests BY stating that tho

would be Obliged 10 pay the taxes which

would revert from the present owners

improved would bear the entire burden
Of faxation. No one realizes this any
more than the advocates of Single Tax.
Al present the vacant properties bear
their share OF assessments and q proper

WOODROW WILSON
 GREAT DEMOCRAT
Judge Stringer of Illinois Recog. nIzes Him as the Logical
 Leader of the Party.
IS FITTED FOR WHITE HOUSE
etatsoman, Scholar and Proved Prao. tIcal Executive, New Jersey states- man Would Be Ideal Occupant
 of the Presidential Chair.

BY LAWRENCE B. SPRINGER. Democratic Candidate For the U. g.
 Senate From illinois Against
 Lorimer.
 Before l1eeting Gov. Wilson, was somewhat predisposed in his favor, from having read many of his produc' tions and having admired the great comprehensive grasp of economic sit uations which prevades all of his poF itical utterances and writings.
 still while predisposed in his fa- vor. until had personally met and conversed with him, I was not con- vinced of his availability as can didate for President.
 Since meeting Gov. Wilson, how' ever, all doubt in that regard, Tn hiy own mind, has been removed. Gov. Wilson Is presidential timber of the exact kind and quality required at the present time. To begin with he Is an intellectual giant, with broad com prehensive grasp of every public sit' uation. Throughout the east, he Is universally regarded as the brainiest American living today. Even in priv. ate conversation, his intellectually scintillates in every sentence he ut. ters. He has a logical and analytical mind. His language Is simple, easily understood, yet definite. incisive and convincing. He has been a student of political economy since his boyhood, has written varied books upon the subject and Is conceded to be the highest authority upon theories of government in the country today. While our presidents have generally been men of patriotic impulses, hon. est and conscientious, still few of them have been great intellectually. Thomas Jefferson was an exception to this rule. Woodrow Wilson, if cleo ted president, by reason of his in- stincts, characteristics, training, fear lessness, patriotism, faith in the peo- ple and extraordinary intellectually would indeed be second Thomas Jefferson.
 Ideal Chief Executive of State.
 AS governor of New Jersey, he has given that state practical business administration, 50 conceded by all. He has shown himself to be peculiar. ly fitted for the executive office along the most practical lines. In meeting him, you are impressed with this fact The schoolmaster is not in the least in evidence. He is plain, matter of fact, and his conversation Is not pc. dantio or pedagogic, but direct. force full and earnest

Welcoming the Stranser.-It Is en-
barrassing sometimes, says the Louis
Vile Times, this thing Of sudden re-
ligious zeal; that is, II you haven't
made II a regular business. Witness
the mistake made some time ago by
a good woman who was a regular at
tendent at a church down on Chestnut
street.
One Sunday morning her pastor
preached an inspiring sermon on the
subject of welcoming the stranger
Within Thy Gates" He urged upon
the membership the duty Of giving a
cordial greeting to strangers who hap
pened in at that church.
This good woman was much i'm
pressed with his remarks. AS. she
turned around to leave the church she
discovered an unfamiliar face in the
pew Immediately behind her. With a
radiant smile she extended her hand.
I'm glad to see you out this morn
Ing" she said.
Thank you," replied the stranger
with a merry twinkle in her eyes.
DO you come often?" sweetly ask
ed the good woman.
The stranger smiled. Il have been
occupying this pew for the past seven
years." she said.
There was an embarrassed silence
and then the good woman turned and
started out. 1t was noticeable that she
made no further attempt to greet any
strangers that morning.
