Remedy Is with the People.

There are conditions in the United States today,
besides the with which pistol may be acquired
by the mentally irresponsible which make possible at
tempts to assassinate public officials conditions with
which our police and legal authorities are without
power deal and which only be eectually changed
when the American people change their minds.
The signs are that this country today is reaping
what the wide-mouthed, narrow-brained demagogue
has been busily sowing for the past decade
These exponents of the doctrine that whatever is is
wrong have found ready listeners too many of whom
have been half convinced that wrongs existed in a
country abounding in industry, prosperity, oppor-
tunity, and employment for the worthy. In periods
of industrial slowing down. with attendant increase
in the numbers of unemployed, experiences which
intervals all nations the audiences of these
preachers of discomfort augmented and the seeds
Of anarchy which they have take root.
1t has been constantly proclaimed that our social
system whatever that is, makes the maefactor rich
and impoverishes the honest workman and the fact
that the American workman better off in every way
than any workman in the world is lost sight of Every
motive of every man in public life, unless he be a
demagogue who is sticking to his own side of the
street, is impugned Every engaged in great in
dustria commercial enterprise employing labor is
denounced as vulture tyrant in creed Of envy
and hate
No wonder that such teachings infame the minds
of the uneducated foreign to land and sometimes
strike the spark that fires disordered brain to a
deed of violence In the possession of nearly all the
poor deiuded creatures guilty of assassination at
tempted assassination in this country in years
has been found literature exploiting the doctrines of
the demagogue asailng the reputation motives
of some in the public eye. The who fired
at Mayor Mitchell on Friday came straight from an
l. w. w. meeting few yards away, and though he
was not one of them, it is certain he heard nothing
there to deter him from his murderous purpose.
There are more creatures of the demagogue in the
ranks of the l. w. W.. who have been invading
churches and preaching violence in the streets of New
York and there are more in the various armies of
the unemployed" marching about the country. All
the authorities do is to keep close watch over
them and prevent them, so far possible, from Sc

The real remedy will be supplied by the Ameri-
can people when they rebuke and reject the dema-
gogue and the preacher of evil and all their works
and compel their followers to go to work.

SINGLE TAX ACTIVITY.
New York Business Men Combating

1t is generally understood that the
single tax advocates intend to make the

New York State Constitutional conven-
tiOn next year to turn their theory into

active canvass with a view to the cleo

hope to win Immediately is a change in
the taxing system which will relieva

burden on the land.
The principle is the same that was en-
bodied in the Herrick-Schaap bill, which
was defeated in the legislature at Al
bany this year and which was opposed
by all the real estate organizations and
a majority of the business men Of this
city. This measure gained considerable
strength through the tardiness Of prop

are not pledged to single tax doctrines.
The real estate men are convinced that
no reasonable persons will support the
