THE WHI8KEY TAX
Captain Dan Webster, in the
San Buenaventura (Cal.) Free
Press, of a recent date, presents
some sensible objections to the posi-
tion taken by Mr. Blaine that the
present exhorhitant taxon spirituous
liquors should be maintained. As
Captain Dan is a pronounced tem-
perance man, he cannot be accused
of working in the whiskey dealers’
interests. He fails to see why Mr.
Blaine wants the tax taken off to-
bacco, if, in his opinion, there is
such an urgent necessity for leaving
it on spirits, and probably it would
puzzle Mr. Blaine to give a logical
reason. AsCapt. Dan says, it is a
mistake to suppose that the people,
through the government, are bene-
fitted or that their burdens are light-
ened by the tax on spirituous liquors.
It all comes out of the consumer,
while it serves the purpose of mak-
ing the busiuess, to a large extent, a
monopoly, protecting the wealthy
against the poor citizen. The
whiskey business has already become
a powerful factor in the politics of
the country, and this corrupt influ-
ence will be perpetuated so long as
the protective tax is continued. It
is apparent that the Captain is not
only not a Blaine man, but that he
rather tavors cheap whiskey as a
practical temperance measure. He
closes with the following para-
graph :
“When a powerful, soulless, un-
scrupulous monopoly like the Liquor
Dealers Association have and exer-
cise such influence over the words
and actions of able and ambitous
statesmen as is evinced in this in-
stance, it is time for the people to
demand that the internal revenue tax
I on spirituous and malt liquors should
J go, and they should look around for
j leaders and statesmen who will un-
hesitatingly favor the repeal of the
whiskey tax and the destruction of
th*e damnable monopoly which now
has so many ot our statesmen and
representatives in its octopodian
grasp.
The Gazetteer agrees with the
editor of the Free Press that the whis-
ky tax should go. It is a violation of
the spirit of true republican govern-
ment, and experience has shown
that it does not promote temperance.
The history of the whiskey business
the last twenty years goes to prove
that ail attempts to correct the vices
and regulate the social habits oi a
free people by law is a miserable
failure. Evils of this character must
he corrected by the slow process of
education and social influence.

TO THE BOOM—10- 3.
BY HERMAN KUEHN.
I am not opposed to immigration.
I recognize and acknowledge all the
real benefits to be hoped for and de-
rived from accessions of numbers.
But I do oppose a scheme which* at
best, can serve only to enrich land
speculators.
If Denison were to double its pop-
ulation in 1888 every industry would
thrive—for awhile. But ultimately
the landlord would get most of the
benefit. This doubled population
would have to live—to produce
The more who compete for oppor-
tunities to produce the higher the
owners of the opportunities could
(and, of course, would) exact for
the privilege. Competition would
arise in every branch of production,
industry, enterprise and commerce,
and wages, profits and interest would
gradually recede, while rents alone
will advance.
The whole community will be
making land valuable tor the benefit
of a few among their number. And
when some patriotic Denisonians
read in the Gazetteer as an ev-
idence of the city’s prosperity that a
certain lot which could have been
bought for $300 five years ago is
now held at $1000 they are ready to
throw their caps in the air and
shout for very joy. They do not
realize that the same conditions
which have added that value have
decreased wages, interest and profits
—and the majority of the shout
ers—the most enthusiastic “boom-
ers”—are the very ones who have
the fiddler to pay.
If, on the other hand, increase of
production were free from hamper-
ing conditions; if the fruits ot toil
were for the toiler; if capital were
secure from the rapacity of burden-
some taxation, the immigration
would not only be desirable, but it
would tend Texasward as though
drawn by the force of gravitation.
Let it but be known that in Texas,
capital, in all its works and pro-
cesses, will be free from taxes ; let
it be known that such conditions
prevail as will make it possible tor
the working farmer to get land
cheap, and that his improvements
ot every character, his tools and his
produce, shall be exempt from tax-
ation, and thousands of the right
sort will flock hither.
‘•But,” it will be asked “if we
exempt so much from taxation, how
shall we provide for the expense of
government, for our schools, our
highways, our courts?”
The answer is—Tax the Value
ok Land.
But will sufficient revenue tie rais-
ed from that source?
Certainly—for whatever may be
required could be drawn from the
value of land.
But would it be just to tax only
one class of property?
Assuredly—for the value of land
is produced by the whole communi-
ty, and the community, in taking
any part or all of what it creates is
doing no injustice. A tax on com-
modities and occupations, however
light, would be manifestly unjust.
Besides, any other tax can be shift-
ed, while a tax on land values must
be borne by the land owner. A tax
on rent cannot be shifted by the
landlord to the tenant.
But is it not inconsistent to speak
of exempting capital from taxation,
and then declare for taxation of cap
ital invested in land?
No. When wealth is invested in
land it ceases to be capital.
But will not such a tax be virtually
a tax on agriculture?
Not at all. A tax on land might
be so, but a taxon land values would
bear mure heavily on holders of
such values in cities.
s *
A tax on land values would take
nothing from the payer of the tax of
what he produces. The value of
density of population. Every com-
ponent part of the population which
contributes that value does as much
toward creating it as the land-
owner.
The farmer, homesteader, and
other users of land areas would not
be hurt by such a change. Their
interests as producers, wage-earners,
capitalists or traders are greater,
usually, than their interests as land-
holders, and their exemptions would
more than counterblance the addi-
tional tax on their land values. The
owners of large bodies of lands held
out of use would be the only class
who would have any selfish reason
to complain if such a change in our
methods of taxation. As to the
justice ot their complaint.—let us
leave that phase of the subject for
inquiry later on.
0U2 PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
Philaoephia. Jan. 19, ’SS.
You may not have thought much
ot my faith cure letter last week and
may have already come to the con-
clusion that I am some long-haired
Philadelphia crank and spiritualist.
Please don’t. Perhaps some day
we will be better acquainted.
Well this faith cure business has
just been openly started here. On
Saturday Judges Arnold and Wilson
in Common Pleas Court granted a
charter to the “Philadelphia Institute
of Christian Science.” Not being a
member, I do not know- who are in
it or behind it. beyond the names
mentioned in the application, most
of whom are physicians in regular
practice.
The Physicians’ Associa ted i* up
in arms. They don’t propose to
allow anything of the sort if thev
can help it. The cast iron doctors
and the lawyers all agreed that it
would not be possible to charter a
society for the purpose of “practic-
ing” a science of healing that disre
garded all the laws and rules govern-
ing medical practice.
When one ot the ladies connected
with the new movement was called
upon, she answ’ered in regard to her
system “I do not practice medicine,
I practcie religion, the religion of
Christian Science. We cure the sick
just as Christ did. We use no drugs
and therefore do not practice medi-
cine. We are always curing people,
we never kill them.”
Another lady prominently identi-
fied with the movement said, it is
not spiritualism, mind cute, mesmer-
ism, clairvoyance, manipulation
massage or any form ot animal mag-
netism.
Well what are these people doing.
They are making people better right
and left, making them at least think
they are better. 1 could give you a
score of instances w’here sick people
received “treatment” and now say
they are cured, and to-all appear-
ances are cuied.
There may be something in it.
Don’t laugh at everything new.
Sickness is half imaginary at best.
My father often told a story which
happened under his personal obser-
vation when I was a boy. Three
doctors in the town where I then
lived agreed to try impressions on a
healthy or presumably healthy &ian.
They selected a healthy, robust
looking Irishman, digging a street
for a water pipe. The first one went
up anxiously to him and said, “My
dear sir, vou look sick. What ails
you?” “Arrah, be aft wid ye,” he
answered. In thirty minutes along
came saw bones No. 2 and looking
alarmed at him said, “\ ou had bet-
ter get home. You are going to he
sick. You look bad.” The Milesian
stopped anil manifested signs of
fight. In a few’ minutes along came
the third Professor of Pills and rush-
ed up to him saying. “My man, you
transcontinental line. That’s all
right. If the Goddess of Liberty
\ would only tickle Uncle Sam in the
ribs, he might conclude to spend a
few tens of millions on sea coast de-
! fenses, public buildings and internal
i improvements. Would that be all
j right? For one, I don’t want to see j
| New York or Boston and ray own ;
Philadelphia get down on their knees
to some tarnel little foreign gun boat
some day when some one-horse
foreign power takes a notion to get
its back up at us. I believe in run-
ning a Government about as a good,
sensible business man would run his
business.
Try the Christian Science cure,
boycott doctors, abjure pills. Just
believe y ou ain't sick and get up.
Cheap way. ain’t it? Try it.

BUSINESS SLVIEW.
I rite rested experts who have been
examining the prospects for suppiant-
ing coal with petroleum regard it as
most probable Petroleum is now
largely used in the making ot iron,
steel, glass, fire brick, crockery,
stoneware, sewer pipe anti tile, and
is making further inroads constantly.
Excitement is running high among
Illinois coal operators, manufactur-
.ers. farmers and speculators over
the discovery of splendid veins of
coal,fire clay and a reservoir of coal
oil within 215 feet of the surface.
They were accidentally found when
boring for water during a drought
last summer.
During the past seven years 24,-
597 oil wells have been completed,
of which 2394 were dry holes or
dusters.
If the value of natural gas at and
near Pittsburg could be capitalized,
it would be worth at 6 per cent—
$100,000,000.
Last week fourteen natnral gas
companies in the Ohio Valley com-
bined. Prices are to be equalized
and advanced.
Industrial establishments flv to
Indiana like fltes to a July molasses
barrel. Kokomo is the center and
it calls itself the tuture great city of
Indiana. Five bundled houses were
erected at a cost of $1,000 each,
and, at Findley’, Ohio 2223 buildings
were erected. Contracts are taken
out for 4,000 for this year. Scores
of factories are now building in both
these places.
The best effect produced by a too
pound six inch shot at Shoeburyness
was the penetration of a nine inch
compound armor, four feet square,
three inches ot hard steel on the sur-
face. The shot went through all
and five inches into the oak backing.
English ballots will do worse than
are dying. Let me feel your pulse.” 1 that yet.
He said some more scare-talk like
this, the man dropped his pick and
went home and at twelve that night
was dead.
Since I have started in the story-
telling line, here is another. In a
certain hospital there were about
one hundred and fifty patients, of
whom one hundred were men and
fifty women. The doctors tried to
see what magnetism could do. T hev
gave all of them sugared water. In
a few' minutes the doctors rushed in
and told them they had given them
poison. Eighty men vomited but
only ten women. Good for the
women.
Bother take the men any how
when they are sick. They are sick.
They are the grumpiest babies and
greatest grunters I ever saw. They
are all going to die in five minutes,
you would think to see and hear
them. Women are different. They
grin and bear it and utter not a moan,
where a man would play the wild
Indian under like circumstances.
8AVED HIS LIFE.
Mr. D. 1. Wilcoxson, of Horse Cave,
Kv., sav* he was, for many vears, badlv
alfticted with Phthisic, also Diabetes; the
pains were almost unendurable and would
sometimes almost throw him into con-
vulsions. He tried Electric Bitters and
got relief from first bottle and after tak-
ing six bottles, was entirely cured and
had gained in fiesh eighteen pounds
Says he positively believes he would have
died, had it not been for the relief af-
forded by Electric Bitters. Sold at fifty

Howe’s American circus had been
seized by the authorities, including
i the ancient elephant “ Juliet,” and
j that most ,of the attaches had been
placed in jail, and that the reason
; for the seizure was that thev did
[ not exhibit according to bills adver-
tised. This is utterly untrue, and I
hope the Galveston News w ill be
; good enough to correct the same. I
was in Monterey every day the
circus was there, and therefore know
what 1 sav- The circus was not
I seized, nor any of the property ; nor
“Juliet,” the ancient elephant,
either; nor wa- anv of the officers
or performers put in jail. True,
one or two of the si rvartt- drank too
much ot the maguev juice or Mex-
ican w’hiskv, about Christmas, and
were lodged in jail for a short time
till they sobered up.
I have seen and spoken to Messrs.
Monroe and French, who have just
told me fhat they brought their cir-
cus to Mexico to spend the odd
weather, owing to the mild winters
here, and they did not regret com-
ing. They were never treated bet-
ter by the state and citv officers
anywhere rn America nor in any
other country than they were in
New Laredo, Monterey and Saltillo.
In fact, they are delighted with the
people and laws of the country.
Their advance agent, Mr. Ed L.
Brannan, arranged with the state
and city officers of Saltillo to pay a
license, of $30 per dav while in the
city. However, Messrs. Monroe
and French the managers, were,
on their arrival, introduced to Gov.
Garza Galan, who at once said:
“Gentlemen. I welcome you to this
city, and the contract between your
agent aud the state and city officers
shall be null and void. Your license
shall be nothing so long as you wish
to stay here.”
The managers thanked his excel-
lency and now have determined to
give two gaand performances next
Friday and Saturday for the benefit
ot the poor of the cty. The com-
pany will remain here a few days
yet, then return to Texas by way of
"Monterey and Laredo.
Inge moll's Tribute-
Mrs. Ida Whiting Knotvles, wile
of the Hon. Howard Knowles, last
LTnited States Collector at Peoria,
111., died in New York December
15. 1 Before her remains were sent
to the west. Colonel Robert G
Ingersoll delivered the following
tribute to her memory :
My Friends—Again .ve stand in
the shallow of the great mystery—a
shadow as deep and dark as when
the tears ot the first mother fell upon
the pa.lid face of her lifeless babe-
a mystery that has never yet been
solved. We have met in the presence
ot the sacred dead, to speak a word
of praise, of hope, of consolation.
Another life of love i* now a blessed
memory—a lingering strain of mu ic.
The loving daughter, the pure and
consecrated wife, the sincere friend,
who with tender faithfulness dis-
charged the duties of a life, has
reached her journey’s end. A braver
a more chivalric spirit—clasping
loved ones and by them cla-ped—
never passed fiom life to enrich the
realm of death. No field of war
ever witnessed greater fortitude,
more perfect smiling courage, than
this poor, weak and helpless woman
displayed upon the bed of pain and
death. Her life was gentle and her
death sublime. She loved the gooff
and all the good loved her. But
there is this conSoiation: She can
never suffer more; she can never
feel again the chill of death; never
part again from those she loves.
Her heart can break no more. She
has shed her last tear and upon her
stainless brow has been set the won
drous seal of everlasting peace.
When the Angel of Death—the
masked and voiceless—enters the
door ot home, there came with her
all the daughters ot compassion, and
ot these Love and Hope remain for-
ever. You are about to take this
dear dust home—to the home of her
girlhood, and to the place that was
my home. You will lay her with
neighbors that I have loved, 'hat are
now at rest. You will lay her where
my father sleeps. All I can say s:
Lay her in the earth,
And from her fair and unpolluted fiesh
Let violets spring.
I never knew, I never met a braver
sp;rit than the one that once inhabit-
ed this silent form of dreamless clay.

The managers of the anthracite
strike of the Reading Railroad have
proven themselves so far the equal
of President Corbin of the Reading
Railroad, in every detail. They
have the public with them and the
public is ready to follow up the
matter by the holding of public
meetings in order to force upon the
Reading people submission to arbi-
tration. Up to thi time the miners
were willing to stand by themselves
hut the probabilities now are that
they will join hands with the rail-
roaders and make the strike a com-
mon one. They are ab.e to stand
out for three months, they say for
six. The next thing that is likely to
be done will be the calling out of
the Wyoming miners, and this may
be followed by the calling out of the
miners in other sections of the s’ate,
who are now supplying the mills
and manufacturers here and through-
out New England with soft coal.
The Reading people have some
trick thev have not yet played.
What it is no one can imagine. Of
course if the manufacturers suspend
there will not be much need of coal,
but if the great manufacturing inter-
ests throughout the east are obliged
to suspend operations and lose mill
ions of money, there will be such a
howling around the ears of the Rail-
road Company officials as will likely
bring them to their senses in a very
short time- The Reading Company
by its reports shows that it is selling
coal at a high price and when we
remember that its corporate exist-
ence is in violation of the fundament-
al law of the state it can expect very
little public sympathy. It has proven
a tyrant, a monopolist and a combi-
nation without the semblance of a
soul.
LEMON HOT DROPS.
After a gre t rnznv trials of the 0r*t
phvsician* in the Ncuth and South, I had
gro«n exhausted by the continued experi-
mental efforts ot 'doctor* to cure m* ot
Chronic Larvngeti* and Bronchitis of a
most severe tvpe, I dropped into a drug
store, while more dead than alive. Speak-
ing ot mv condition, a friend adviacd me
11 try Dr. Moziey’s Lemon Hot Drop#,
which 1 did, and to my .urprise after take
ing the first bolt'e, it gave me c->mplet-
relief. I then bought three other bottle*,
w hich cure' my case entirely ot eight
years' standing. Dr. W. A. Byers,

Dr. H. MoZLRY.—Dear Sir: I have
suffered for five years with a severe cough
and lung trouble. I saw your advertise-
ment 0/ Lemon Hot Drops, and procured
a bottle; having tried every cough-.prup
and loxenge that I could hear of with but
little benefit. To -ny surprise, i derived
benefit from the first dose. Mv cough
left me, also the soreness of my lungs, by
the use t four small bottles only. M*
cough was so severe as to produce hem
orrhages, at he time I began to use it,
and the relief w>»s so gre t that I shal'
ever feel grateful to you.
