Current Topics TiilkiTH Who Dmi't Ho- IU"1O III Silicic TlIJT. The Current Tonlo club discussed the Henry Ooorgo single tnx theory last night. The question was stilted In thcso words : "Would It bo ndvisnhlo to ralso all public revenue By a single tnx upon lanu. Irre spective of Improvements resulting from laborl" Mr. 1.1. B. Hugglus wns the leader on the nfllrmtuivo. Ho asked Mr. A. J , Points , who had given the subject considerable study , to open the discussion by stating the principles of the Henry Georfio theory of slnglo tax. Mr. Points took up and followed nn Imaginary plonoer going out to upon up a homj until tno neighborhood whcro thu sot- tier locMcd had become a city , lly the sldo of this farm where the plonoer located lay a tract of land owned bv n capitalist who per mitted the Innd to remain unoccupied until the city had crown up around It. Ills land grow Into a fortune without Im having done a solitary lick toward making It more vnlii- ablo. Now Henry ( Jeorgo claims that this Is unjust and that thoio who cnmo to the community to Improve the land should have the use of it. These who improve their land by hnrrt work kept Increasing tholr taxes all the whllo , but this speculator could simply stand Idly by and sco other people make a fortune for nun bv the increasing value of his land. Mr. Points thought there was a ' great deal in the Henry ( Jeo'rgo theory that ought to chnllcugo tbo attention of carotul students. Mr. J. A. Powers took up the argument for the negative. Ho hold that the Hcnrv Ocorgo tnoory was very largely moonshine. It would ploasu people- who wuntod some thing for nothing , who toiled not nnd whenever never spun anything out Impractical theo ries. It was a croat scheme to nmko a machine of the government with the foolish Idea that a government could create some thing or make something Independent of tbo people who compose it. Mr. Agon made a brlot address In the afllrmatlvo , in which bo made some very strong points. Prof. Lewis , of the high school , talked for ton minutes in favor of the negative. Ho said ho road Henry George's book , "Progress and Poverty , " with a creat deal of admira tion the first time. The second time he be gan to suspect that all was not right and the third tlmo ho road it ho began to see the absurdities of the theory. Ho had road It many ttmos and had no hesltcucy In saying that the theory was based on moonshine nnd was utterly im practicable. Mr. W. D. Beckott argued for the nfllnna- tivo sldo. Ho made a number of very good hits and was applauded. Dr. Durvea summed up the argument nnd said that ho had , line Prof. Lewis , been con vinced that the theory prosentoa by Henry George was a very flimsy and impractical one. Ho was of the opinion that a man would hnvo hard wont formulatlnc a statute that would embrace the George theory of taxation. Dr. Durvea said ho thought it would take a life time for a government to got ready to collect its taxes by such a scheme. Mr. Doyle presented the Current Topics for the week and succeeded in presenting nn intensely paper. Ho mentioned nearly everything that had happened during the past week , all the way from the Blnitio letter to the beginning o'f work upon the busomont of the now postoftlco building. The club will debate the same question next monday night. Mr. W. i ) . Beckott will take the affirmative and Prof. Lewis tbo neg ative. Father HlgKu'H Kiitnrtnlnmrnt.
