It is claimed that we should do this free of ct to the advocates of the nieasote in order that oar reader may be informed at to the merits of the question. It i hur l for us to under stand tist kidd of resnipg. We are under no obi gations to publish argu ments in favor of this amendment, especially as, in the articlesenl n, theie is f r more ssn-rtio.i than argument We mill, however, give a few extract from the article, and comment upon theni: ' "The single tax would make this lar.d cheap to ths man wno wanted t J make use cf it." This is the same as toarjpetlnta tax oa money will tu ike it cheaper to the borrower.

The farnn-r talk npon thin sort of argument as an attempt to bribe them to support an unjust law.. They bare no de-ice to compel the me tropolis to pay more than its just shffre Of the burden of taxation. They de tuad that no property shall escape the assessor, bat that railroad, timber lands, manufacturing plants, farms and all other property Thai) be assessed at its full cah value.
