ASTER WAS AN ACCIDENT,
SINCE CARGO WAS FOR GER
MAN USE.

Washington, Feb. - .-Believing a
serious but not alarming situation Is
created by the blowing up the Evelyn,
the administration today Is awaiting
a detailed report from the American
ambassadors at London and Berlin.
All the crew Of the American steam
ship Evelyn, sunk by IL mine on B"r'
kun Island, in the North Sea, were
rescued. The vessel had passed with
safety through the war zone on her
way to Bremen before she struck the
mine. A great hole was made IN her
starbOard. The captain seeing 1t was
impossible 10 beach the vessel, ordered
all to the boats.
The Evelyn Is the first American
vessel To meet with disaster rs the re-.
suit of the sea warfare of the Euro
pean nations. She did not sink within
the war zone included In the German
admiralty's decree. Borkum Island
lies directly of the German coast, at
the mouth Of the Ems river, aud Is
German territory:
Maritime records give the compile
ment of the Evelyn at twenty-five men,
20 that it is probable that all on board
the vessel were rescued.
The Evelyn was "a single screw steel
steamship and was commanded by Cap
tain Smith. She formerly belonged to
A. II. Hill * Company, Of New York
and was recently sold to Harrlss.Irby

FLORIDA TAX LAW.

In Florida we have a law that is n
very good one. 1t provides that land
which Is cleared and planted to orange
groves shall not he assessed for the
purpose of taxation at any higher rate
than the raw land. 1t was the pur-
pose Of this law to encourage the
planting of citrus groves.
When 1t comes to a bearing age
however, the land value is Increased
and very materially increased, and
some Of the Winter Haven growers can
testify that for taxation purposes they
are assessed high enough.
This brings us around to the ques
ton of the single tax theory. Wouldn't
it be a little better to just enlarge on
this law and provide that all land I'M
der cultivation in the state should bC
taxed just the same as unused LAND
of original equal value?
There is no getting away from tho
proposition that the farmer who i'm
proves land adds value to adjoining
unused lands, often held for specula
tive purposes.
Is 1t not placing a penalty upon
man for employing labor and increns
ing values I'm whole community 4
increase his taxes as soon az he I'M
! proves his land i--Florida Grower.
