charges concerning the bill for the Cali

sance and ineflciency. Then he came
back with six questions for Mr.. Seaoury
to answer concerning his " political
principles.
The first question to the Democratic
nominee refers to s%eabury's advocacy
OF single tax and is:
~ ask you to state now to the voters
OF New York whether you intend to de-
sert that principle II elected or whether
you intend to put into the laws OF h
state OF New York the single tax"

he supports the proposal to exempt from
taxation. IN whole pr in part. buildings
H. New York state.
The third question asks whether Mr..
Seabury fayors the enactment OF any
legislation that tends toward the finai
adoption of single tax.
Quotes scabur,'s own Words.
The fourth question quotes from al
attack made IN 1904 on Judge Al
ton Il. Parker. then candidate for the
Presidency. by Seabury. This quota
ton follows:

others who deserted the party when II
