(That's the. “Single Tax’’ Plan)
Voters who think they will get out of taxes by voting
out the sales tax, should be warned that there is a goblin in
that measure that is sure to get them if they “‘don’t ‘watch
99
out,
_ As everybody knows, or should know by this time, vot-}
ing out the sales tax automtaically votes in the single tax. The
measure is so worded.
It may-look good to some, to think that all taxes under
this system, will be saddled onto the land owner, but the land
owner is not the only one who will suffer.
‘Those unable to own their own homes or business pro
erty, and who pay rent are the persons who will suffer first
and worst, for they will have to pay the costs. It will not matter whether the land owners find themselves able to pay the
extra burden, or are obliged to let their property go to the
state for delinquent ‘taxes’ ‘the tax still must be collected from
the land. Tenarit farmers will find the rents raised so high
they will not be able to continue farming. Families living in
rented houses, or doing business in rented buildings, will find
their rents raised so high they will not be able tomeet the
morithly payments. When all the various forms of taxation
now in force are lumped together and piled exclusively onto
the land’it will drive thousands. of business firms out of business, thousands of tenant farmers out of their farm homes,
and thousands of home renters out of their homes.
‘The single tax proposition actually resolves itself into a
government based on renta! payments for its support. _Its
ultimate aim is for the state to be the sole owner of all real
property, and all the people renters from the state. No man
will then own his own home, or the surety of a permanent
abiding place.—Orland Unit.

Stranger Than Fiction
When I was just a little child
In my dreams I see it yet.
My father brought it home one day—
You see, he’d hooked its mother;
Said he, “‘here is a salmon trout
For you dear, and your. brother.
. We taught that fish to follow us .
Like Mary’s little lamb. We fed it cheese and jam.
About its slender waist it wore
A bright blue ribbon sash;Our salmon cut a dash.
One night we missed it from its perch,
little dear
Had climbed a tree to spawn.” =
But still we kept its memory fresh
With warm and salty tears.
Now just last week in old French Lake
I saw that pet of mine;
The same blue sash about its waist,
The bow &till crisp and fine.
And there were schools of progeny
Whose numbers none can tell;
Most certainly our salmon spawned,
Not wisely but too well.
But here's the strangest fact of all—
Each new born fishlet wore a sash .
Tied with a big blue bow!
